It was a fun, timely, and yes, naughty post OP…but did you have to make it creepy?

I could use someone rubbing my ass in the moonshine right about now…

They know. If you are still receiving get out the vote communications, then it just hasn’t been passed down yet. Just unsubscribe.

As opposed to not so funny and now deleted messages on Nude Africa?

Umm…just because the 2006 conflict was a stalemate, I wouldn’t bet on Hezbollah stopping a full Isreali invasion, especially if they are committed to the genocidal tactics they are using in Gaza. Iran would continue to remain relatively unbloodied and let their poxies die.

Meh, you can stop in Durham at least…keepin’ it dirty.

No, Mr. Green, Communism is just a Red Herring.

One more thing

And thank you for accepting criticism on the internet! I think I might really like being on lemmy! I do see where your thinking was there, though.

I agree with the majority of what you are saying, but stating either the USSR or China had a foundation as a republic I would say is a gross mischaracterization, as supreme power within these states were held by the “communist” party, and not the people. Authoritarian regiems may play at calling themselves republics or democracies, but this should never be given credence.

I think authoritarian states typically get mislabeled very easily within modern times, especially by themselves. Some precedent I believe should exist for what I would loosely call “Stalinist” Communism, as that is what has been the most historical application of the term. But the modern Chinese state I believe would make Mao, Lenin, and even Stalin roll around in their graves by being considered Communist, and we should call a spade a spade. China is a fascist country now.

I would argue that China has implemented a one-party fascist system, as the major ideal of communism is the economic side. They have embraced capitalism, be it under the shadow of the authoritarian government, it is capitalism none the less…

From my understanding, this is different then communist states such as Cuba and North Korea, as the large majority of their means of production are still 100% state owned.
