Anyone look at the right ring finger (not the finger with the ring but the next one)? Or the right thumbnail for that matter? Is she wearing a thong, what is that black line? Does the right hip look like another thumbnail? How does anyone take this seriously? It's AI slop...
This is a never-ending struggle. Trying to educate people crushed by decades of propaganda, mis-education, and historical ignorance, who get their entire political identity from harry potter and marvel movies, takes near infinite patience.
Some people need a gentle hand, others need a slap on the wrist. For those who have already licensed themselves away from changing their minds through logic, refutation, or general dialogue, an open mind comes from personal, deteriorating conditions and the desire to learn how to escape them. All the patience in the world isn't enough for some people until the right conditions are met.

getting smacked around the system is an EXCELLENT accelerator; ask me how i know. lol
What helped me most, from floating around various liberal viewpoints to coming to Marxism-Leninism, was actually working in an industrial environment.
my first job was working under the table at my father's plastics factory and the intense level of anti-mexican racism from the workers made my sisters and i quit less than a week later; it makes me marvel at how anyone can organize anything from factory workers as well as how anyone can endure it for decades like my father did.
i also tried the same thing at my mom's dinner in food service and i quit the same day and for the same reason, but my sister made fantastic tips. lol
That's awful, I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, a lot of trade union history is marred by racism and exclusionary rhetoric, even if the more unified and anti-bigotry organizations have had far more success historically.
Thanks but don't apologize for those asshats; they got what they deserved when their "True American" owners laid them all off but kept most of the Mexican workers (probably because they were cheaper labor).
Plus, the experience also convinced me to go to college and get my degree. Maintaining employment isn't easy these days but atleast the work is A LOT easier and the working conditions are A LOT better.
Glad to hear things are looking up for you!
The most frustrating aspect is the utter inability to do any sort of self reflection and self criticism whenever faced with being wrong about something. It's impossible for people to correct their understanding when they're not even capable of acknowledging problems.
The burden of being right all the time.
be humble, sit down
i aspire to achieve such greatness. lol
what is the flag about?
The joint leadership of the peasantry and the proletariat as the ruling classes of the USSR. The peasantry are symbolized with the sickle, the proletariat, the hammer. The H&S is used as a symbol for socialism, communism, Marxism-Leninism, etc.
