      The vile Russian Empire, with its Romanov dynasty, super problematic. If Peter is so great, why does he look so wimpy compared to Joe Rogan? Hah, those stupid tankies don’t even realize the Chinese empire has been abolished for over 110 years!

        Sorry for being snarky… Of course modern China is an empire. Just without overseas military bases. A soft empire, one might say.

      Gets it in one.

      There’s a reason everyone is currently demonizing liberal ideology instead of standing up for the rights that the conservatives are working to strip away.

        Liberal ideology is a regressive conservative ideology.

        It was progressive three centuries ago. It’s not anymore, it’s outlived it’s usefulness.

    So true! All the peaceniks yapping about the a bomb, flowers and trees are just pinkos. I heard a guy call for ceasefire in Palestine the other day, and I screamed to him: “Fuck off to Iran, if you like it so much”.
