how to talk with libs who keeps talking about ukraine war and posting obvious bot memes saying “NATO expansion triggered this and US imperialism” and discrediting you because you make bot talk g points
You can’t, just continue arguing and bringing points, someone observing might get the idea, or just block them and touch grass
It sounds silly, but have you tried sharing your story? Like so many of us, myself included, you were probably once a lib. What were some of the key events that got you from there to here? It’s not guaranteed to work, especially not online, but it can help humanize you in the eyes of anyone reading. And that can make them more receptive to other things you have to say.
well, my upbringing mostly. the places where I grew up were mostly left leaning or communist controlled areas. but i was apolitical for most of my adult life and maybe was even a lib but the event that triggered me is ukraine war really? i started researching about zelensky and why everyone is dick-riding him at the beginning of the conflict. and soon i started to reading Vijay Prasad etc.
This is good. If you start with the fact that you weren’t really political, then only became so because of what you found at the beginning of the war in Ukraine, it’s a more compelling story than “listen to me! I’m right!” (it took me longer than I care to admit that many of my arguments used to sound more like the latter than the former).
They keep calling me a bot so idk
I’m toying with the idea of learning Persian, anbody know an anti-imperialist/socialist Persian news site/live news feed which isn’t controlled by the Iranian govt?
I’m an Iranian Persian (hence a native speaker of the language) and let me warn you – people usually don’t know this but it’s a very difficult language, and quite foreign coming from a western language.
I don’t know of any sources like what you want, but even our government’s dogshit national media should be alright from a purely language learning perspective. Although, I don’t know what good jumping into spoken Persian with all it’s subtleties straight from the beginning will do you.
If you need any help with the language feel free to message me on this account.
Are you Iranian?
No, but I think the language is beautiful
I have a friend who is Iranian so I wondered…
Still, I agree, it is a beautiful language.
Tonight I had a dream involving Alduin from Skyrim
I was dreaming of Stannis Baratheon from A Song of Ice and Fire.
Who’s that?
That must mean that you’re gritting your teeth in your sleep
Grits teeth even further.
Grrrrr
AZOV will hold a meeting in Rotterdam for some reason and Dutch libs are having an aneurysm trying to defend literal Nazis
Dutch van der Linde > the actual Dutch
The left laser interview “I can not guarantee there there won’t be soldiers with Nazi tattoos”
Absolutely insane
You’d have to be crazy to believe Azov!
Crazy as a fox!
/s
“They’re just the reserves! Nothing to see here~!”
Due to controversy the meeting is cancelled 👍
The cancel culture SJWs strike again
The cancel ninjas are on the case! 🥷
Wtf I love SJWs

Mali played against Israel in Olympic football, they tied 1-1 sadly, although they played better.
To show how much the U.S. cares about gender equality, they gave gamers the choice to pick between a male and a female character without effecting their stats 👍
At the same time:
Netanyahu gives a speech to the US Congress declaring that his genocide must be seen through to the end. He gets ovational applause.
Foreign Minister of the People’s Republic of China, Wang Yi, brokers unity between the political factions of Palestine and begins new peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia.
I have never been so free of doubt about my political alignment.
I will go whale watching on a boat so I bought a hat today at some interesting looking Chinese shop on the island. It looks like Fidel’s hat lol. It has this fake armani pin on it which I am going to rip off and maybe I’ll attach a red star patch back home.
Hola.
teehee
so where is joe biden?
Beijing Biden?
Gone.
As if he never existed…
A figment of our collective imaginations…
If I have to see one more Kamala propaganda post I’m going to lose my mind. The liberals are absolutely insufferable about that genocide supporting roach. She was there with arch-butcher Biden for 4 years, why tf are they acting like she has a clean slate or something???
KHive thrive
Morning in America?
