you forgot Place, North Korea: Either paid actors or oooh so spooky literally 1969, there are government spies in the tree, the nort corean gobernment doesnt want us to see this photo and/or this photo was staged by the govornament for propaganda! Basically how they react to China but x10
This is why we keep the “critical” in “critical support”, comrades. What a hellworld we live in where this dumpster country is the second biggest threat to american hegemony.

here’s the original publication: meltingasphalt.com/ads-dont-work-that-way/
…i’m not sure what you’re getting at, maybe i didnt summarize properly. give the article a read and see if it makes sense to ya.
rules-based order (i make the rules and order every one around)
the article very clearly explains that. Give it a read, it’s not that long.
…but if you aren’t going to read it, the summary is that the way we think ads work, associating brands with positive emotions (termed “emotional inception” in this article), is bollocks. Instead, they rely on “cultural imprinting”, i.e. associating the brand with a kind of person or situation. For example, corona is the beer for relaxing on the beach, nike and gatorade are for athletes. So, if you want to relax with some homies, you drink corona. If you value athletic performance, you drink gatorade and wear nike shoes. Major exceptions apply, please just read the article.
i had a long reply that i accidentally deleted but conveniently this book about Stalin just came out that should give you an infinitely more nuanced “history and critique” of Stalin than the average westerner could imagine exists.
TL;DR Stalin is a complicated figure, just like everyone else. The cartoon villain picture of Stalin that western propagandists have been building for almost a full century now isn’t real, no one likes the “eastern hitler” caricature that doesn’t exist. We like Josif Stalin, the real person who existed, did great things, did bad things. a lot of what you think you know is simply false, and to understand why we “like” Stalin, you have to learn who Stalin really was, and find out what you think you know about him, the Soviet Union, and communism as a whole, that is just plain wrong.
sorry about the downvotes and dunking that are going to come to you, some folks around here have trouble distinguishing genuine questions and bad faith trolls.
why is Russia blank? does no one in Russia edit wikipedia??
those links don’t work. also i noticed i follow @prolewiki@matapacos.dog perfectly fine, though a lot of the acct’s follows/followers dont show up from kolektiva. are you sure it’s still defederated?
matapacos defederated from kolektiva for what security concerns? i too am a kolektiva user hiding my power level and looking to migrate, but i dont want to lose the comrades ive met on kolektiva :(
supposedly, the many banned terms were quickly unbanned, but further reading would require being able to read Chinese. which i can’t.
for comrades braver than me, here’s br*tmonkey’s source list for the video: https://pastebin.com/qNQbXyUE
and the source for “letter N was banned” (from the guardian, notorious source of Unbiased™ reporting about china): https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/feb/28/china-bans-the-letter-n-internet-xi-jinping-extends-power
it’s the “i’m almost enjoying my anger!” mood, the deliberate exposure to things you don’t like for the catharsis and/or sense of superiority that’s not unique to internet libs, see also ‘shit X says’ communities that exist everywhere under the sun.
…and liberals once again thinking their votes matter 😎
really just said “nuh uh” 😭 how did you stumble into lemmygrad
save yourself the braincells and dont bother learning anything about “breadtubers”. destiny is just another one of them, and you’re better off knowing nothing more than that.
you have to pay at least a $2530 fee to renounce US citizenship, if you somehow avoid all of the other hidden fees. and Allah help you if you mess up part of the application. cool country 👍
edit: i conclude it’s probably easier to lose citizenship by committing treason or joining a foreign military than doing the state department’s arcane (and expensive) rituals
now i’ve never used a sickle in my life but every time i see the Chinese hammer & sickle, i think: that’s a really impractical handle on that sickle.
every other hamsic has a decent rectangular handle, but the CPC just has a little nub. what gives
