On Lemmy? Because Reddit sucks.
On this post? Because it appeared in All and I think leftists are fun to argue with for the same reason I argue with conservatives. I like occasionally reminding myself of how horseshit political thought is outside of social liberal circles
I mean, let's take you. You're literally celebrating being a wumau tankie. It's basically a self-parody at this point.
Never said I was a leftist, you all are ridiculous, defending Russian imperialism and shit
It's not surprising why a country struggling to stay free of Russian imperialism would ban parties associated with Russian imperialism. This is like acting surprised that Germany banned the Nazi party.
Go argue with Zelenskyy lmfao
I'm not inventing anything, that's why the Ukrainian communist party was banned. They were Kremlin spies.
I think OP was a megafan of a now-banned Ukrainian communist party that was banned because they took orders from the Kremlin. For everyone's context.
Dude, I can't have absolute certainty over an alternate timeline. Maybe the Taino would have given birth to a genocidal dictator who would go on to eradicate the entire planet in a nuclear holocaust. Pretty unlikely, but who knows? All any honest person can say is that it seems very likely the country and island would have been better off without the crimes of Columbus etc.
And while Haiti has some people with the potential to become leaders, nobody has the effective ability to exert leadership over the country or a realistic pathway to gain that ability. Maybe that changes eventually. I don't know.
This isn't about an echo chamber of hopelessness. This is acceptance of reality. I have talked to emigres about the issues facing Haiti. You want to pretend there's hope? Go ahead.
Also, I'm not sure why you are trying to pretend that the US "kidnapped" Aristede when what happened is that he fled to the US after the Haitian military ejected him from power in a coup. He was later restored to power by US intervention, in 1994, after the military ran the country halfway into the ground.
I seriously don't understand why I should care
I mean I object to his imperialist invasion of Ukraine. You don't, then?
