many of the most emblematic coup d'états were sponsored by dems in power. brazil in 64 and 2016, bay of pigs invasion in cuba in 61, south vietnam in 63, greece in 67, dominican republic in 63 and 65, argentina in 66, bolivia in 79, south korea in 61 and 79, honduras in 2009, paraguay in 2012...

worse, they'll say that he's privileged for not being a gay in trump's america, since that's perhaps the worst thing that could happen to a human being.

this.

adendum: in some "primitive" societies, there was no private property of the means of production. marx and engels studied that extensively.

perhaps the greatest achievement (?) of trump and his cronies is making "they live" an obsolete movie. they're saying in people's faces now everything every past 'murican government (and their pervasive elites) tried to embelish and coat in self-righteousness. for anyone who lived outside the country, especially those outside global north, this is some sort of twisted vindication.

you know that this sort of statement only benefits nazism, right?

  • pensioners back in the 90s: you shouldn't trust everything you see on the internet, no one knows who came up with that;
  • pensioners in the 2010s: of course the communists are gonna force the children to use penis-shaped peacifiers! this random person who added me on a random whatsapp group wouldn't lie to me!

i will just make here a small correction, on the sense that i personally don't believe that putin and the russian elites live in some sort of hyperreality. i do believe that they assess reality, but one can question this assessment. however trump and his cronies really shat on their pants because they truly freaked out on a small denture on their shining armor: people questioning why the u.s. is the way it is, people organizing, making strikes, protesting against racism, and then of course luigi happened. they totally freaked out because they didn't wanted to even have the "nightmare" of being toppled down of their positions (economical, social, etc.)
