Al Capone wasn't president No, but he was a criminal. And they both suffer(ed) from syphilitic brains.

Im seriously not getting what you guys want. You want us to police the Middle East? You want us to set up post up and keep the occupation going? We've invested BILLIONS into the kurds at this point and will still support them financially and with weapons. What DO you want?

I am interested in the communist perspective on this given that the Kurds suffered greatly under Stalin and a lot of this is the result of Stalin's forced relocation of the Kurds. This is why I don't fully trust the PKK.

I am interested in the communist perspective on this given that the Kurds suffered greatly under Stalin and a lot of this is the result of Stalin's forced relocation of the Kurds. This is why I don't fully trust the PKK. Not "supportive", if such a word can be applied to events that occured several decades ago, of many of Stalin's relocations/decisions in general, and honestly not well-versed enough in this particular history. Would never consider myself some blind Stalin stan/meme lord though. I do appreciate some of his early theoretical writing and think rapid industrialisation and most of its consequences were the correct choice considering the grave fascist and imperialist threats that faced the USSR at the time. But his leadership obviously oversaw many abuses of power within the USSR's territory and many innocent people suffered because of that. The extremely brutal state of siege and isolation the Soviet Union was under (civil war, imperialist invasion, WWII, etc.) for many decades obviously played a huge part in the violence/suffering that unfolded. The USSR was much bigger and there were more people and events making decisions happen than just Stalin (Great Man Theory and all that). That's my stance, just for perspective here. Curious what you mean by "this is why I don't fully trust the PKK". I think the PKK and their allies have, despite many errors and questionable alliances with states such as the US, fought a long and just struggle for self-determination and survival in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, etc. and the Turkish state will most certainly seek to absolutely crush them now that the opportunity has arisen again. These people have faced genocide from hostile neighbours before. The PKK has been the most active group I know of combating this aggression and defending the Kurdish people so I must show solidarity considering the alternative. If the CCCP's decisions had a hand in putting them in this position then I of course do not think that was a good thing, but I am sceptical until I learn more. As someone who opposes the US military's presence in this region and the rest of the world, I can honestly say this recent news is a very tricky situation to have a firm stance on. All that said, again, I am not the most well-read on Kurdish or PKK history compared to I assume many of you, and open to understanding more.

torn between voting NDP and voting liberal in the canadian federal election. liberal is more of the same centrist bullshit, but at least i'd be able to sleep at night. NDP is where my heart is siding but i don't think they have a chance to beat the conservatives.

Catch 22. Either support the status quo just to keep sincerely regressive shit out of office or risk pissing a vote away.

NDP is where my heart is siding but i don't think they have a chance to beat the conservatives. If people vote like this then of course NDP is never going to win, don't be a fuckin' American and take advantage of having a multi party system. But if voting strategically really does matter to you, look at your riding and see who's more likely to win between NDP or Liberal. If you're in a riding where Liberal will always be 2nd or 3rd, then it's even more of a waste of your vote. Smaller parties like the Green Party get funding if they reach a certain threshold, so that's something to consider too.
