Idk man democratic socialists seem to have been succeeding in doing it almost globally for a century now.
Look at the left of any social democratic party and you’re bound to find some.

Wouldn’t be so quick to assume that if I were you.
The Biden Admin saved Lula (a socialist) from a coup by Bolsonaro
The Biden Admin has also pursued closer ties to the socialist government of Chile.
It seems that the Biden administration is perfectly okay with socialists, as long as they adhere to democracy.
Enough to know it’s bullshit.
Sure you can grab the one example in my argument that was actually functional and not fully symbolic, but my point still stands, humans build seemingly irrational things to grandstand, and the Pharoahs would’ve for sure done the same in their role as dictators.
I have my fucking doubts.
And I’m sure so has every serious academic who has studied the pyramids and all came to the conclusion that it was a tomb, and if you read their reasonings for that I’m sure you’d understand why they came to that conclusion.
Honestly, why would they make three precise giant buildings for a tomb?
Same reason we would spend a stupid amount of money on the St. Louis Arch, Statue of Liberty, or Palace of Versaille, or any work of art? To create a lasting symbol of something and to symbolize status.
I’m sure you found that book very compelling, but any electrical engineer or historian with an understanding of that period’s technology could rip it apart.
Wtf? Pls say this is satire.
Likely just a common tit for tat attack in retaliation for the Israelis bombing the Iranian embassy in Syria
Fuck, can we ban this? I normally hate passing laws that don’t really do anything, but it’s so hard to figure out what a program is from the name when every single government agency insists on shoving an acronym in the name.
It could absolutely end up being that, but an increased amount of even just social media communications between Chinese and Western people probably wouldn’t be a horrible idea.
Reactionary unlike the homophobic theocracy leaning dictatorship currently invading Ukraine?
Liberalism does not just mean capitalism. Most of Liberal thought is about political rights, the kind of political rights that Putin obviously has no care for.
Last time I checked, Putin, the one who invaded Ukraine, is certainly not a Liberal.
This is the take that makes people feel like they can shoot grandma’s and burn children. You can run an effective resistance without targeting civilians ask the ANC.
I mean when there’s a genocidal right-wing dictatorship next door that’s taken up invading nation’s as a hobby, of course they’re gonna vote for the one whose highest priority is security.
I was responding to you making a remark about boots and mouths. Your remark implied you thought TOS’s shouldn’t exist.
What did you stop “self-repressing” about that got you suspended from reddit?
Ah yes not being able to tell people to kill themselves is perfectly exemplary of a boot on your neck. /s
Grow the fuck up
The only reason to simp for Wagner is to be so brain fucked by the atrocities of the West that any other country’s atrocities somehow become “liberatory police actions” in comparison.

Non-amp link, stop simping for rapists and mass murderers.
Don’t think we’d necessarily need the CIA for that one, seems that the Russians have been doing the work for us.
We’ll see if the new group is as awful as Wagner was.
There’s this thing called social democracy,
and almost every nation in the world has a social democratic party. The left wing of these social democratic parties tend to be full on democratic socialists.
There’s a good chance that the welfare system in whatever country you live in was built by these social democratic parties and influenced by its left wing of democratic socialists.
Even in the U.S. FDR’s Liberalism has been called “bootleg social democracy” by some historians, and his policies were influenced (though often more as concessions than willing adoption) of the more socialist leaning unions of his time. Even today, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party could be described as social democratic, with its leftmost members (Bernie Sanders and AOC) being democratic socialists.
