What does the last sign mean? I tried to find a translation, since all of my spanish skills left me long ago, but I'm guessing it's wrong. Also, I'm assuming it's racist. Here, have some horrible American fans.

I don't know spanish, but the Real Madrid fan's are probably poking fun at the bat in Valencia's badge. Based on all the other motifs used by the ultra surs (vikings, nordic runes) I'd say they're also implying the Valencia team is racially impure.

Well, I hope I don't come off wrong, but I'm not entirely sure people outside of Europe or certain Asian nations really 'get' how retarded folks get over football here - instead of regionalism, it is often hitting sectarian sentiments of national size.

Got the story behind that image? I have to assume it's Libya, as Wind Mobile is a Canadian cell company that began operating 2-3 years ago. I know British and American Libyans fought in the civil war, but wasn't aware of any Canadians that did so.


He's a Libyan rebel- he's wearing a A.S.Roma kit- Wind is their sponsor.

This has to be a neo-Nazi thing, right? Those people aren't actually flying sig rune flags because of civic patriotism, right?



You can call it nostalgia, or ultra-nationalism if you like- 14th Waffen Grenadier Division was made up of ethnic Ukrainians. Sig runes and other symbols used by the SS transcend national boundaries and are very popular with groups who are anti-immigrant, anti-semitic, anti-modernism, etc.



The runes Leben and Tod



Sieg



The totenkopf is also very popular.



This is in Spain. Note the odal rune.

Most of you are probably familiar with Operation Ajax, but if you're not, you should definitely read up on it. There are many reasons as to why the middle east looks like it does today, but one of the more important ones is the amazing number of foreign (primarily US and British) interventions of various kinds, particularly during the cold war.

I live in a world where rich and greedy fuckers can send a bunch of poor immigrants to kill and fight for their profit with the people of that country mostly not giving a poo poo while everyone else suffers, is what's wrong with me pokeyman. Even the first world isn't safe from neo-liberalism, which hosed up my country.
The American soldier is a symbol of oppression and death in the world, in case you missed the fact that America has been a force of evil for a long, long time now, so killing them? Probably a good thing, even if it's a symptom and not a cause.

No one is more bellicose than me. There are not enough ditches in the world for the people I despise.

Yeats, D.H. Lawrence, Mishima, Roy Campbell, Dostoyevsky- I won't suggest Pound. Bellow, Nabokov, Conrad, T.S. Eliot, BORGES- hardly progressive. Carlyle, Mencken, Nietzsche; don't even get me started on pre-modern authors. I am glad I do not have the same compunctions about what art I consume. Besides, most of these artists hate modernity and neo-liberalism too.

BUSH 2112 posted:

I'm actually not a Rush fan, it was just meant as a joke. I'm actually kind of sad that it makes people think I'm a Rush fan, it was meant to be very tongue-in-cheek, Bush being a conservative and Rush also being conservatives, with a ridiculous quote from 2112.

I may have misunderestimated things.



Also, I like this idea of people being allowed to buy raw milk. It seems like the only people who would be interested are people who are dumb enough to deserve what they get. Pasteurization literally has no downside unless you're a crazy libertarian who just wants raw milk because freedom.


2112 is definitely objectivist but Peart has said that was just youthful naïveté, although he now considers himself a libertarian concerned with social justice, which is a bit like a mohel being against circumcision in my opinion

And well, when the other parties offer free money, people tend to forget who exactly made all that debt a problem. As in, one offered lower taxes, the other to have debt anulled and there's been an active media working against left parties for months before the election.
Oh, any my countrymen are dumb as gently caress. I can't really explain it otherwise. I could equivocate on this but there a strong spirit of FYGM in Iceland as well as the idea that "Now it's the turn of the people who loving ruined our country to try and govern". And I honestly have nothing but contempt for those who would choose their politics, not even looking at how laughably out of touch these parties are before deciding for the party that wants to dismantle our social welfare system and fight against equal rights.
Or maybe I'm just a disresepectful hippy communist feminazi, who doesn't care about important things like the economy, who knows.

I've heard Icelanders have an individualistic streak, because it's a settler culture- a bit like the United States I suppose.
