You can’t sell asbestos cotton candy at a marketplace of food. Authorities of public health regulate that shit out of our markets. Same public health oversight but with regulatory baseball bats.

I always like when people in our party are so invested in finding new ways to pwn the fascists in the marketplace of ideas. I'm sure the fascists are doing the same in their 'self defence' classes they are talking about.

those Nazis will surely realize that they're being mean when confronted with poignant criticism

Instilling fear on their opposition (violent nazi fascist) and providing safe spaces for immigrants (people of color)

Real Cognitive Dissonance here, I am faced with new evidence that the Fr*nch can be based /s

Not a lot, colonial history is treated like a secondary subject, at least it was in my time, maybe it changed a bit now.
The war with Algeria is mostly discussed around the event of De Gaulle doing something with the radio when the fascist fringe of the military rebelled against him for having connected two neurons and abandonned the war. Very lame, no word about the atrocities.

Kind of makes me think of inglorious Basterds. I wonder if there’s any I inspiration taken from them.

So, the brownshirts, but under a different flag, and different justification, but with equal fervor. Check.
commiewolf 12 points 3 years ago
And I suppose that the Allied soldiers were just the Wehrmacht but under a different flag too by your logic?

If Stalin just followed a debate class and invited Hitler for a heckin epic rap battle, he wouldn't have had to send the Red Army in

While he's fighting Nazis I couldn't care less what he is like
Dekudibusei -4 points 3 years ago
You seem to equate all of the Wehrmacht (which mainly consisted of very young conscripts, many of them malleable, uneducated and never having come in actual contact with people outside of their direct environment) with the horrible atrocities a powerful elite amongst then chose to carry out. If you do, I pity you. If you don't, you might see the nuance that discredits your own strawman fallacy.

Paradox of tolerance... or paradox of intolerance? Point is appeasement doesn't work and at the end of the day you have to be intolerant of the intolerant.
Dekudibusei -6 points 3 years ago
Good point. But then again that's also the point the other side uses.
CheeseNoodle 5 points 3 years ago
It is unfortunately a valid point. If one side is acting to physically harm you then politely asking them to stop is no longer sufficient.
Dekudibusei -1 points 3 years ago
Former military, so can't say I do not agree in principle. (Though not based on political stance.)
DankZedong 8 points 3 years ago
By all means be my guest and debate the fascists and Nazis who want to eradicate entire races while I will try other ways to defend myself

Carry on with the ad hominem. Communism has killed more people than Nazism ever did, LOL.

A place where comrades can
(1) discuss how best to optimize their physical health and develop “Iron Proletarian Discipline” in a healthy and holistic manner. Including but not limited to weight training, stretching, cardiovascular exercise, meditation, nutrition, sleep, and daily routines with an eye towards cultivating the best habits possible,
(2) share motivational and educational writings or videos; bonus points if the perspective is that of a Communist thinker such as Mao or Fidel Castro, and
(3) discuss the relationship between mental health and exercise.
Rule:
Approach every conversation in good faith.
