it's not even fact-checking it correctly: the image clearly is captioning Byrd as a "KKK leader", but then the fact-check tries to correct it by saying that he was "not a Grand Wizard", when they're the only ones making that claim!

the kkk call their leaders grand wizards so this rates 88 pinocchios

Remember how in the 1940s an american submarine popped up to rescue one solitary crew member from a bunch of planes that got shot down? Everyone else got killed by their japanese captors (some cannibalized which came out during a war crime trial)

It's places like Detroit, where the main land shipping lane for the region depends on a bridge that will probably collapse in the next five to ten years without major repairs, and when it does it is going to be an absolutely phenomenal disaster and tragedy

don't worry they've completely leveled a huge chunk of the poorest and oldest neighborhoods so they can slowly build a new shipping-only bridge, but its okay because they gave the people they kicked out like $50k and a lovely house in another run-down neighborhood (that they're contractually obligated to fix up) except for the few that were smart enough to hold out for better deals

this has some real "we had to teach the primitives" vibes, not gonna lie

i assure you, cultures were detaining and/or killing outsiders for trespassing on their cultural or political borders long before white people left europe or european capitalism even came into conception

distrust and fear of outsiders is a powerful human emotion that money didn't invent and adequately positive politics can't (easily) solve

japan believed in borders so strongly they fired on unknown ships from the shore if they didn't come to the designated foreigners-only port

so the us forced them to open er up by sending the guy from friends with the explicit orders to force the borders open by bombing them if they wouldn't give in and let the americans colonize them

The original meaning of "tankie" was someone who still supported the Soviet Union even after they... sent in the tanks (hence the term) to crush the Hungarian uprising of 1956. This was supposed to have some critical inflection point in leftism because Hungary was an ostensibly communist nation at the time, and yet the USSR still saw fit to bring the hammer down on them.

The more colloquial and contemporary use of "tankie" has been as a pejortive against people who ostensibly support so-called "authoritarian" governments, especially the PRC, but claim that they do so for left-wing/anti-imperialist reasons. The accusation is that while the US might be bad, you still shouldn't support China (or Cuba, or the DPRK, and so on) because they are also bad.

In this sense, it's also somewhat ironic that "tankie", when used this way, is often made to be synonymous with "Stalinist", given that by the time the tanks were sent in to Hungary, that was already during the premiership of Khrushchev, and also after his "Secret Speech" denouncing Stalin and initiating de-Stalinization.

it's associated with stalin because he sent tanks to destroy the final form of liberalism

the NSA can intercept most Chinese telecommunications, even terrestrial point-to-point microwaves.

the NRO has the most advanced series of phot-reconnaissance satellites in the world, with resolutional capacity well beyond the Cold War “reading the headlines on a newspaper in red square”

even the CIA has previously been able to embed agents deep inside the Chinese state.



so why haven’t we seen Iraqi WMD style evidence coming out of the US Intelligence Community? and instead we have goons looking at google earth and labeling building?

do they think going on the record last time was a mistake? will we see that in a few years once they’re ready for war? are they incapable of doing the job better than br*wn m*ses?

they correctly recognize that the us would be crushed and don't work to manufacture consent in the hopes they arent executed at the end of it, assuming china doesnt just glass the entire capitol zone

It's weird they make these plans without seeming to look into the executablity of the plans. A year ago the biden plan was to forgive all student debt for people making up to $125,000 that graduated from a public college or private historically black institution, this plan was adopted from bernie after he was muscled out of the primaries. I guess it felt more real since it was a bernie plan, but it was something that would have helped people immediately so obviously it was bunk.

Today, a year and 1 election later, we are "looking into" cancelling up to $50,000 in student debt.

they say what they think will get them elected and then backtrack so that they don't have to actually do it
