So our party leader is going around on television to highlight how Colruyt, a leading supermarket chain in Belgium, is supposedly paying 0.27% tax on a 1.8 billion euro profit. But the thing is, it’s not entirely true. If you look at all the daughter companies and the main company together, the actual tax percentage is around 25%. Still, it’s less than an average Belgian person has to pay of course but it seems that either he and our study dept. fucked up on this one or he decided to roll with it anyway and got caught with it.
Now, of course this ‘communist lie’ gets more media attention that normal. But it still is weird to just tell misleading information.
Meanwhile a local branch of far right party Vlaams Belang is parading around a guy who dresses up as Hitler and newspapers decided to give ´Little Hitler´ a visit to ´hear his story´. We´re worse though.
Little Hitler brings back memories.
What the fk is this?
🐶💩
At this point, I am tempted to create commie AI chat bots, that educate people.
Also create stalin leader character on cai or other platforms
If you have the time you totally should
I have only small request. I need authoritative source on all famous incidents in ussr and stalin books/speeches. I can use stalin works itself and probably black legend book for now and see how far I can go.
Should try to mimic how stalin is actually like, how he talks etc. that’s gonna be tricky.
Perhaps this site is a good source of training data?
thanks for the info. i’m most looking for how he is in general, his personality and behavior. i found some meetings notes in your sources, so i’ll use them as well like this

TALK WITH STUDENTS OF THE SUN YAT-SEN UNIVERSITY
There’s an actual Milieu fan posting stuff on the Belgium subreddit, saying we need one in Belgium as well. Surprise surprise he is also bashing our party. What a coincidence.
Milei? Or is there some other guy named Milieu
Oh yeah Milei. But autocorrect made it into milieu which means environment in Dutch
mystery solved
What if there was a Marxism test? Not so people could brag about their scores or be allowed into things, just a diagnostic assessment. It could be used to figure out one’s theoretical weaknesses and what they should study. More like a personality test than an important standardized one.
Marxism SATs
Socialism Aptitude Test
By far the most underrated human skill.
When I met Stalin, I did not find him enigmatic. I found him the easiest person to talk to I ever met. He is far and away the best committee chairman of my experience. He can bring everybody’s views out and combine them in the minimum of time
I lowkey look to Chinese foreign policy to improve my personal social skills. Win-win collaboration = key imho.
Does anyone has books about the french comunist party that aren’t bullshit?
Wow Oppo, are you immortal?
Literally
she has been hoping for nice weeks since the dawn of time
And I assume will do so until the end
Going to the doctor this afternoon. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼
Well nothing concerning it seems. Probably some nerve or muscle annoyance. Good to know I guess, kinda sucks that I have to live with it 🤷
Is it something that foam rolling would sort out?
Yeah looking into something like that right now. Or a massage or fysio. It has gotten better last week with stretches, more walking /running as well.
The good old classic “come back when you are dead”
Onkruid vergaat niet
Is Keanu Reeves a zionist?
is he jewish???
I’ve been subjected to too much NPR in the last few days. It’s sad hearing them and knowing Marxism would help them so much in making sense of the world. For example I remember when, on Planet Money, the guest was asked what would happen if there was no unemployment. He couldn’t come up with an answer.
sorry if it’s a dumb question, but what’s NPR?
U.S.'s “National Public Radio”.
Don’t let the name fool you, they receive more private funding than public funding. They even got mad at Musk for slapping a “U.S. government-affiliated media” label on their Twitter account, crying, “no, in fact, we’re almost 99% privately owned!” and ditching the platform.
I have liked a couple of their programs, but even their best program cannot escape the confines of the liberal braincage.
Oh, during Bush’s presidency, they banned the word torture from being used in any of their pieces detailing his administration, claiming it was a loaded and biased term to describe waterboarding. So.
Never sure how much weight to place on ‘public’ even in the best of bourgeois dictatorships.
Citations Needed is like a left wing NPR.
True, that show’s great.
What an interesting place!
Anyone has that hoang phan post about ex-nazi hired by CIA to produce plague bombs for korea? I saw that post in lesser known facts on quora can’t find it, because it was deleted, I believe he took a screenshot on that.
I’m surprised you expect people to know who hoang phan is, and yet I do. However, I cannot help you, as I was only active a while ago on that terrible site.
turns out i made a post while back
found out about them here. 😂
How? I’ve never seen a post of theirs on here.
i am not sure. it might just be a comment as far as i can remember.
I’m sure someone else on the internet has already said this but anti-vaxxers are Nurgle cultists.
i miss @AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml
Same… They’re busy with school, I think.
