We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world, a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we'll kill you. Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us; they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. gently caress them.

It kind of annoyed me that what felt like half of Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail was excuses for why he hadn't written it yet or for how his publisher was getting mad at him for missing deadlines.

that was the best part. threatening to shoot the fax machine or whatever it was, creating insane tangents to get the right amount of words

Another form of exotic is a slave girl raised in total isolation from men in perfect and absolute innocence. These are purchased for victory feasts and the first they know of men is serving, wholly, at that event. Many of these slaves, traumatized by their experience, commit suicide.

Friday evening discussion topic: Is it hypocritical to like a song with political lyrics while disagreeing with the political lyrics themselves?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5K5l89mpV8

Merle Haggard wrote this song while smoking a joint hitching in the back of a truck driving through Muskogee and wondering what it was like to live there. It ended up becoming an insane hit, basically becoming the anthem of the silent majority in the 60s and making him tons of money, so he ended up writing a bunch of right wing political songs to keep the gravy train going. People never got that the original song was him being facetious and he pretty much had to pretend it wasn't for the next decade.

Also, loving Kris Kristofferson's first recorded song was about how anti-Vietnam War protesters were traitors.

Pinochet intentionally executed and tortured thousands of civilian opposition which Fidel never really did. The political executions almost solely targeted Batista regime and military figures, or counterrevolutionaries actively fighting the government.

What is the component of Juche ideology that celebrates heroic effort over technological innovation? It was big during Il-Sung's reign, with a lot of obviously fabricated tales. It was a broader Communist term, since the Soviets had similar propaganda, but I'm specifically interested with the term as it relates to Juche. I want to be able to properly celebrate the Great Successor's victory over the Imperialist dogs.

lmao fox is running the headline "Obama Apologizes to Castro"

http://nation.foxnews.com/2014/12/20/obama-apologizes-castro

in the article it doesn't explain, but if you go to the article it's referencing:

quote:

Obama began the phone call with Castro with what he described as 15 minutes of opening comments. It was the first conversation between the heads of state in both countries since 1961.

"I apologized for taking such a long time," Obama said.

I am telling my friends I fully support the approach President Obama has just adopted concerning Cuba.

It is time, indeed, to look at the relations with that country with the eyes of today and not with the perspective that has shaped our past.

It is easier to change the situation if we engage. Presence is influence. Presence is a launching pad to support change. And the people of Cuba are eager to see change in their country. Raul Castro understands it but he is constrained by his own personal history, his political relationships and the power base that keeps him at the head of the Party. But even he keeps stating the old things he is at the same time creating the conditions for a more democratic and more prosperous Cuba. We should be able to understand that.
