The story of Orange Cassidy having to resort to *slightly* more desperate tactics to retain his title very single week as his body breaks down from constant title defenses is one of the best going on in wrestling but most people are going to pretend that’s not real storytelling

Castro also praised Kennedy for actually being a guy you could talk to instead of the usual US government stereotype of the raging anti-communist crusader. It’s a big reason the CIA and army chiefs of staff saw him as soft on communism and probably why they <REDACTED>
@mechapoetic
Living in an era where capitalism has been victorious beyond Ronald Reagan’s wildest dreams while half the people are convinced they are living under communism because the giant evil corporations post rainbow flag emojis sometimes
Kissinger outlived his millions of victims and died peacefully in wealth and comfort never having been held accountable for his crimes but god damn am I still glad he’s dead.

And to me this is much more dangerous. It’s actually hard to convince people that killing is “good”, but convince people the killing is an unavoidable, necessary fact of life, and they’ll come to accept it pretty easily.
@babadookspinoza
Is the Democratic party’s plan really just to pretend nothing is happening all the way to the election? What do they do if this happens at the debates? (I hope it does)

I always viewed the IDF women soldier propaganda as a marketing technique but didn’t consider how effective it would be for saying “the Arab hordes are defiling our maidens” once they actually saw serious combat

@POTUS
Seems like a “pro-labor President” that wanted to avoid a strike would force the bosses to accept the worker’s terms, not the other way around.

The biggest thing that will change your view on the world is understanding that history being one upward trajectory of progress re: social issues is bullshit. It’s all over the place. Ups and downs and all around depending on culture and context and time.
@veryimportant
An elected Democrat campaigning on actually doing things instead of just warning me what will happen if Republicans gets elected feels like something from a distant, mythical past
“NJPW” is only for male fans is just a really funny take to have. Half my timeline for the last decade has been women insane hornyposting about the New Japan roster, writing fanfics and shipping them as gay lovers.

What part of Hillary being a former First Lady and Secretary of State with the entire DNC machine behind her made her an easy primary opponent?

This looks far better for him than my interpretation being that he is just really inspired by the idea of Coca Cola hiring death squads to massacre their striking workers

It’s okay he’ll get it done in his first 100 days... 1st year... 1st term... oh no now republicans have congress... HEY why are why are you criticizing President Biden for never releasing the children , do you WANT Tom Cotton to win?!?

Yeah but if we stop exploiting children in the global south for cheap consumer goods then *Americans* might have to do those jobs! 😱
@primalignity
Fascinated by the crossover between this person’s Real World/Mass Effect political opinions since he apparently identifies with the Krogan , a race that was sterilized by colonizers because they were viewed as uncivilized and genetically prone to violence.
A fun fact about Varg Vikernes is that he’s a huge mamma’s boy. His mom paid to publish all his writings for him while he was in prison. She also spent the equivalent of like 11,000 US Dollars funding a neo-nazi paramilitary group tht planned to break him out of prison.

Really struggling to imagine the disability that prevents you from being able to read a few pages every night but allows you to write an entire novel and get it published
