  • Fun fact, medieval serfs, despite only being a rung or two above being actual slaves, had anywhere from 100 to 150 days off every year.

    That’s absolutely not true, i wish this myth would finally die off. Unless you work like 14 hours per day in shit country where there is no holidays and no paid leave, then you do not even have less free time than a free peasants, and serfs were destroyed so much by excessive labour they tried to run away often (depending of course on local conditions, but serfdom was fucking terrible).

    Worker conditions under capitalism is bad (but it can be bad or BAD, read Engels “The Condition of the Working Class in England”) but please stop romanticising even worse times.
















  • To be fair, Ukraine killing kids is not something you could hear about in th US-European propaganda bubble, especially that they banned Russian media.

    Which leds me to another point that is the libs supposedly hating censorship and loving plurality of views, but when jankoflife expose them to plurality of views and allow them to glimpse behind the censorship, they get unbelivably mad at him for some reason, instead of getting mad at those who kill kids and those who censor this fact. Reminds me how they always were about Palestine too.


  • Uhh no, I’m saying they didn’t win the war because they couldn’t meet their stated goals

    I mean yeah that usually work like that but USA are in entire another layer of hypocrisy, their stated war goald are only a political theatre for their population, plausible deniality and propaganda purposes.

    My bad for assuming, btw.

    No problem

    You believe US when they state the war reasons and goals? Lol, lmao even. They achieved a real war goal of stopping Iraq and Libya from breaking dollar monopoly on oil sale.

    Also it’s not my government, my government was actually quite honest, they admitted they went there to bootlick USA and loot Iraq.
