I’m particular to

There is no party line. Hexbear is an online platform for posting pictures of a pig with shit on its testicles.
The general consensus seems to be that China is cool and good. Some users are disappointed China is not doing more. Other users, like @xiaohongshu@hexbear.net, are worried about the economics of the country as well as the liberal cliques within it.
@jack@hexbear.net Made a post 4 years ago about china (easy to find if you sort by controversial, since we no longer have downvotes) and back then vibes were different.

The biggest thing people agree on now is that there is no Uyghur genocide and Tiananmen was basically a US psyop

You think there was a Whotler?

Gritty remake of the grinch when?

The sun is cool

Fact check: No it’s not, it’s actually very hot.

I appreciate the recommendations, thanks!

Thank you!

Yeah I agree on the “historical” texts. He loves reading, so if he wants to go there, he’ll do that when he’s ready. It’s more the worldview and the understanding and the like. I was considering Brumaire just because I felt like I had to give him some Marx and I hear it’s the most approachable one.

Thanks! I’m considering sitting down with him to watch Loyal Citizens of Pyonyang. I¨ll look into the Bruce Cummings book.

I’ve heard mixed things about Stasi State or Socialist Paradise, so if you read it I’d love to hear your thoughts on it as well.

You may wanna also see if you can find something that discusses the overlap between Nazi Germany and NATO then.

Yeah I’ve really been looking for that kind of book. I’ve got plenty of articles, but I don’t have one super good one that compiles it all, and if it doesn’t do that (from a lib-friendly source) then I’d much rather give him a book.

Operation Gladio : The Unholy Alliance Between The Vatican , The CIA And The Mafia, Paul L. Williams (2015)

I’ll look into this one! Thanks!

The Jakarta Method is an excellent recommendation! Don’t know why I didn’t think of that myself. I think I have to read wrecthed of the earth myself first.

As for the rest of your recommendations, I appreciate them, but they seem more fitting for a USian than a european. Not that they’re not good for a european too, but if you don’t already have leftist worldview I fear it’ll mainly just feed the basic notion of “the US sucks” which is broadly agreed upon here.

Ukraine didn’t require a massive amphibious operation.

And despite how easy it would be for Russia to turn Ukraine into Iraq, NATO still decided to use it for its geopolitical schemes. And I think the people in power now are even more deranged. I could see them launch a failed invasion - Pete Hegseth would probably love talking about boots on ground

And despite how easy Ukraine is to invade we (NATO) still decided to use it to provoke Russia. Now the people in charge are even less connected to reality

nothing wrong with that

Ground invasion is out of the question

We said the same thing about Ukraine back in the day. It seems to me as though the people in charge are incredibly arrogant about what they can get away with. It’s not like popularity or approval rating seems to matter a whole lot to them right now

I thought the removed word was the ableist “r-word”.

If I take the time to call someone out I should really take the time to make sure it’s right, but thanks for being chiller than me
