The mace denotes authority.Holy shit is that supposed to be an executioner's axe denoting the monopoly on violence and death assumed by the state?
The axe often represents the power over life or death through the death penalty

Hey Ken i'm watching a 6 part series called "The Death of Yugoslavia" and it's pretty fascinating and remarkably complex.
But if you had to pick ONE nationality in Yugoslavia whose fault the wars of the 90s were, who would it be.

Nah I just read a book by a Croatian woman called “They wouldn’t hurt a fly”, about the trials in the Hague. It was pretty good and she mentioned some pretty interesting video evidence at Srebrenica (like Mladic threatening the shit out of the Dutch commander) so I looked at it on youtube and found excerpts from the death of Yugoslavia, which I downloaded.
It’s some of the most compelling TV I’ve seen in a while, I almost spat my beer out when Sloba first appeared as a talking head. Maybe this is ignorant of me but I didn’t realize just how much documentation of the breakdown and subsequent war there was. The games and powerplays that Milosovic and others were playing at those party conferences and state councils are breathtaking to watch.
But to get back on topic, labor cannot harness the info revolution because they are segregated from ownership of info revolution technology, by way of them being extremely poor. Arming the proletariat with smart phones instead of guns might be the best way to empower them.

hahaha yes it's completely ridiculous how all these really really important council meetings are on video from multiple angles, national leaders telling each other to go to hell on live tv
and all the serbian paramilitaries just welcoming in cameras while they ethnically cleanse villages

woman with a creative hollywood job aggressively derails an (admittedly mediocre) communism thread because another woman offhandedly referred to her as "honey"
jools points to first woman's economic privilege w/r/t to another strand of discussion but i missed the reply because that shit is too hot for the 'dp

oh boy i wanna make a thread about privilege theory
propose a system by which everyone gets a tag denoting their various minority statuses (black, woman, trans, disabled, depressed 1st world alcoholic etc.) so people can immediately identity who has more privilege in any discussion and downvote all their posts accordingly
do this without a hint of irony and see how many people you can get to agree
jools posted:
it got gassed when i started asking what privilege, exactly, the scriptwriter was referring to when she was complaining about being called honey by a woman
if that's the same person I'm thinking of she has a habit of doing that and has some weird maggotmaster type brain issues. woops look at me gaslight, I'm fucking shameless

can you, i am curious to what extent this concept even exists outside the internet

well tbh she has a history of running women out of that site when they disagree with her. it happened to our very own future widow and discipline!
I just remember one thread that she didn't like so she started quoting everyone and doing the sarcastic "HAHA YEAH FUCK THOSE VAPID CUNTS!!!" thing, just over and over for pages until the whole thread was unsalvagable. you could say she was.. strawmanning to a ridiculous degree???
