What's the actual relation between the PKK and the YPG? Every time PPG stated he wasn't affiliated with PPK it sounded tongue-in-cheek.

PKK is to the YPG what Sinn Fein was to the IRA

ehhh not exactly . the armed wing of the pkk in turkey is just...the pkk. it's the cross-border aspect that makes YPG have to disavow PKK and vice-versa

I liked when piss pig granddad vociferously denied any human rights violations by the ypg immediately after talking about serving alongside a cannibal who ate parts of his own unit's bodies and pieces of blasted apart corpses, and then bragged about fighting alongside child soldiers but he didnt personally consider them child soldiers because they're over 14. i also liked how much he made his unit of the ypg sound like white western communists engaging in war tourism

PLEASE ASK ABOUT MY 80,000 WORD WALLACE AND GROMIT SLASH FICTION. PLEASE.

Somehow I don't think libertarian socialists living on siezed territory of a near-defunct nation state riven by civil conflict have much regard for arbitrary constructs like international law. If the kids they're arming are a year under the internationally-approved age for combatants it's probably one of the lesser evils they commit on a daily basis, war being a pretty dirty business in general.

If the PPG episode was a premium would the CIA have to subscribe or do they get access from funding the park slope mansion?

"Tankie" was originally used to disparage members of the Communist Party of Great Britain who remained aligned with Soviet policy when they crushed the revolts in Hungary and Czechslovakia. Nowadays it generally refers to Stalin apologists.

edit: beaten. But yeah, "tankie" because of the tanks.

When my libertarian dad bounced on us when I was a kid, he went to Alaska for just this reason. My mom had to take him to court to force him to file for the dividend to pay back child support. To my knowledge, he filed for it up until the point at which my mom sued, then stopped filing.

Murray Rothbard posted:

but also that the parent should not have a legal obligation to feed, clothe, or educate his children, since such obligations would entail positive acts coerced upon the parent and depriving the parent of his rights. The parent therefore may not murder or mutilate his child, and the law properly outlaws a parent from doing so. But the parent should have the legal right not to feed the child, i.e., to allow it to die.

I saw her obliquely reference it, and she seemed to claim her family actually struggled, and asking after her bank account was a sexist false flag or something.

Bonus, until I was 12, I was legally UNNAMED MALE $LASTNAME and had no social security number because then the state couldn't draft me. I got thrown out of private school (for being a poo poo) and also because my dad didn't pay his contracted half of tuition, so the school sued my mom. As a result of both of the above, I couldn't get financial aid to go to school and ended up joining the military.
