i think psl is about as good as dsa and both a little better than cpusa, frso is just too small.

when liberals say the communist oppressed lgbtq people thing they mean it as a criticism of communism in comparison to capitalism, as in “the ussr under stalin had bad lgbtq legislation therefore capitalism is a better system” this is a rejection of that criticism because how could this possibly indicate that capitalism is better when the failure of communist in this particular case is that they werent better capitalist like they were supposed to be.

they are the only real leftist options in the usa and contrary to the impression u might get from looking at their federal level organization and people, theres a lot of based people at the bottom and some local chapters are straight up just good.

i think the motivation is to save on labor costs.

no no no one more wonder weapon will fix this for sure

u forgot to put the Secretarybird in god tier u know the coolest bird. also the portuguese man o’ wars is a strong d tier contender those things are weird and disgusting and they sting.

gotta love how they did infact NOT name 2 countries that china has bombed

I mean there where muslims princely states which ruled in what became India over hindu majorities up until the British Raj was dismantled which is withing living memory. if u go by when the last independent sultan fell to the eic its still not so long ago either way its not like a few hundred years more or less makes it ok or no longer matter.

it seems like all religions do that, atleast theres actual history to support it in this case, their ancestors really did get invaded and oppressed by muslims.

kinda they export capital goods, their corporations behave in imperialist ways sometimes and im sure their capitalist would love to be an empire, however they are not part of or atleast not at the core of the global imperialist capitalist system that exists today they are a victim of it and of organizations like the imf and the world bank not the beneficiaries, and while they export capital goods they do so at about the same rate as brazil and south korea for example countries which no one would refer to as being part of the core. so no

however russia is a settler colonial country and is imperialist in that way and while i get that the problems faced by indigenous people in russia are rather minor compared to countries like the usa or canada its kinda fucked up that most leftits wont even acknowledge this reality.
