ICBM tests do fly in a very high arc though, the point is to test the range while making it clear that no one should be worried about it striking them.

That is pretty standard for missile testing?

This is vibes based politics.

No, an exploited class noticing their exploitation and some dude thinking he is entitled to having sex with women are not the same actually.

During revolutionary conditions a lot of bodyguards end up, you know... taking stock of where their class interests lie, if you know what I mean.

but doesn’t history teach us that violent revolution more often just begets more violence than actually solves problems?

Nope! Look at the life expectancy increases under socialist countries, they mathematically have less death!

Also compare red terrors casualty numbers to standard operating casualty numbers. Like 20 million people die of capitalism caused deprivation a year worldwide today.

If it is wrong when the union troops kill natives, then it has to be wrong when the natives kill settlers! /s

Please read about settler colonialism, this isn't a symmetrical situation.

DPRK trivia- the dprk has universal suffrage and secret ballot. The highest authority in the country is the Supreme people's assembly with 687 representatives.

US trivia: the US prohibits itself from arming governments credibly accused of significant humanitarian crimes, but then turns the other eye when it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge significant humanitarian crimes.

Like during the genocide in Palestine, where Biden keeps shipping weapons and Blinken has been told to or chosen to keep his eyes closed and his ears stuffed with cotton while his subordinates keep bringing reports of Israeli crimes.

The Nazis couldn't have done the holocaust without IBM, yeah.

You're more likely to get a socialist revolution than democrats and Republicans getting rid of FPTP at a significant enough level to matter.

In the end, a populist agenda like he’s running,

Trump just straight up isn't a populist? Fascists are pseudo-populists at best. They don't actually care about democracy or what the majority want, just like liberals (using marxist definition of liberal)

But the soviet union didnt dissolve from a civil war, there was a US sponsored presidential coup?

Good faith efforts made by the party or by state and local dems who aren't party insiders?

Why was it there in the first place I wonder?

 

Why was it there to begin with I wonder?

 

The far left of the US' overton arrow slit is backtracking on the war now. https://youtu.be/jpUN0q35Lak

Mainstream US news backsliding on the Ukraine war narrative is pretty newsworthy.
