This movie is incredibly woke, particularly the scene where the German female members of the group decide to sunbathe nude....at the joint training camp with the PLO.

We all love deconstructions right? Well, here is a scene from a famous post-Yugoslav film where the main character, an old communist is fighting alongside nationalists. They are trapped in a tunnel but they have an ammo truck available.
He recalls walking from his village to Tito's funeral when he died, hundreds of miles while carrying his portrait....and loses his mind completely and decides he has had enough.

tl;dr A communist suicide bombing with rousing music

As someone who identifies as a Slavx, I've always been super John Birch as gently caress about the USSR. I read about the Siege of Leningrad in American high school and I was like, "harden the gently caress up, comrade"

When you start getting too serious about communism IRL, remember that Marx and Engels would get drunk and smash street lights in London together. :hist101:

Even if that is vile anti-communist propaganda, it's a drat good meme.

cspam isn't LF.

It was the dawn of the third age of mankind – one month after the election.

The C-SPAM Project was a dream, given form. Its goal: to prevent another war, by creating a place where humans and tankies can work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call – home away from home – for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers.

Humans and tankies, wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal . . . all alone in the night.

It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace.

This is the story of the last of the internet forums. The year is 2016. The name of the place is C-SPAM.
