Thelneff has been appointed thread monitor because i for some reason remember that person's libsoc or anarchist-friendly? and all my experience with radical politics in the United States says, giving anarchists the power to fuck with people is the magical ingredient to make superfluous Democratic Party shit funny
all my experience with radical politics in Canada says, giving anarchists the power to fuck with people is the magical ingredient to creating an endless feedback loop of "you hurt my feelings > you hurt MY feelings when you told me I hurt your feelings > you hurt MY feelings when you told me I hurt your feelings by telling you that you hurt my feelings..."
this isn't anarchists this is just modern liberalism??? i mean that may also be anarchists

the art & music stuck with me though. it's just a cool feeling. the opening is so dark and quiet. the game itself isn't the thing

jesus that professor going on about cultural enactment or whatever...
At first glance this answer may seem to only be a confirmation of what is already widely known about Sanders, i.e. that he wants to placate potentially revolutionary unrest of the country via economic liberalism while still recognizing the perpetual maintenance of empire as his primary role.
On a closer look however, the selection of those two particular figures to make this point does seem a little coincidental. It's natural for the mind to complete hanging sequences with the omitted term. Red, Yellow, ______; The Father, The Son , ________. Is Bernie Sanders perhaps trying to tell us who his true historical hero is, the third Ally--Joseph Stalin?
He may be making a coded message to revolutionaries that he must still 'play the game' at least for the time being. But for now I think we need to trust that he's trying to show that he is a true Marxist-Leninist at heart.

i understand the liberal turn in the communist parties, this has happened to varying degrees across the west over the years and for obvious reasons, but openly campaigning not only for the democrats but for the most electable candidate, hahahah, yes it would be so embarrassing for the communist party to have bet on the wrong horse. after all, we should bear in mind the wisdom of paul krugman and the AFL-CIO. does the CP stand for clown pants

The cpusa has resources though. They're worth targeting for their downtown ny real estate alone. Imagine the organizer salaries you could pay off that one building.... mama mia
