The Simpsons always ahead.

I interpreted it that way. Homelander is Trump, Neumann is AOC. Both supers, boths psychos, both on Vought payroll.

Still, is a show based on an Ennis comic and streamed by Amazon. Suprised they could get away with things like:

It will probably end with the classic “both sides bad, but there is no political alternative to capitalism” tho.

Hey, I like that idea. Maybe I could find some funny-cringe quote from my country president. He had a lot during the pandemic…

I’m finishing an essay about education under COVID. I’m exhausted AF and I was wondering if anyone has a cool quote about education. Under socialism, under the pandemic, etc.

I was thinking about an extract from the Parenti’s speech about education and his father. But if anyone wants to share another one, that would be cool.

Chicken Breast (oven) with rice. Simple as that.

I love rice, even without seasoning. So, if i’m short of time/energy, this is my comfort food to go.

Oh, I almost forgot: Mate with crackers, as a breakfast, as a snack during the day, during a lecture, etc.

Lot’s of awesome games on the ps2.

Would say: MGS 3, RE4, ZOE2, FFX, AC0, FM4.

There is a meme, going around some leftist argentinian circles, that compares Milei to Pol Pot.

Of course is an exageration, but taking into account the level of deshumanization, hate, negacionism and religious delirium that this little libertarian gremblin is showing… we are getting close to the Pot levels.

Yep. Julian (Jude) is the other son.

Also a lib tho.

If they keep re-re-remastering films with cheap IA and filters, sooner or later, Ripley will look like this:

See it this way: “Love” is commodified through apps like Tinder. The “ghosting” is a systemic problem asociated to the “neoliberalization” (if you will) of social relationships. In other words, an structural problem and not an individual one.

Dating apps just want to maximize engage and sell you the premium model. A “pay to win” love game. And if you find someone in there, that would mean you are going to stop using their app. They don’t want that.

Yugopnik has a video on this subject, he explains it far far better than me.

I don’t know where you live or your material reality, but social activities are far healthier for meeting new people (from friends to, maybe, SO). Acting classes, book clubs, political activities, political orgs, etc.

Sorry for my intromission. Have a nice day and I send you a virtual hug, comrade.

I mean, he had connections to the last argentinian dictatorship and knew about the desaparecidos --> https://www.laizquierdadiario.com/Jorge-Bergoglio-la-dictadura-y-los-desaparecidos

He IS a reactionary. He was whitewashed by the Kirchnerist-Peronist gov, after becoming the Pope. I still remember him in the march against same sex marriage. Fuck Bergoglio.

On the other hand, Father Mugica was the based one. A member of the Movement of Priests for the Third World. And murdered during the Triple A phase of the repression against social movements.

Did you even watch it? Here you go: https://vimeo.com/414505425 (french with spanish subtitles).

You could also read, if you know spanish, this papers (used in the History Degree of the University of Buenos Aires) centered on the Argentinian experience + some about Cóndor:

1. Buitrago, Francisco (2003), “La doctrina de seguridad nacional: materialización de la guerra fría en América del Sur”, en Revista de Estudios Sociales, n° 15, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá. --> DSN in SA.

2. Eidelman, Ariel, (2010), “Transformaciones en los aparatos represivos del Estado Argentino durante la década 1955-1966”. Mimeo → The influence of the yankee and french doctrine on the argentinian army. Especifically, the counterinsurgency tactics used against the vietnamese and the argelian population (later, translated to the latin american dictatorships).

3. Slatman, Melisa (2017), “«En Argentina no había escuadrones de la muerte». El dispositivo represivo argentino, la responsabilidad primera del Ejército y la planificación centralizada—ejecución descentralizada (1975-1983)” en D´Antonio, Débora (comp.) Violencia, espionaje y represión estatal. Seis estudios de caso sobre el pasado reciente argentino, Buenos Aires, Imago Mundi.

But, if money defines things… oh boy. It’s not my fault that the hegemonic interest of the western powers don’t finance an epic movie about the connection that existed between the repression on Indochina, Argelia and the Central - South American dictatorships. And how what the french learned was later teached to one of the bloodiest armies in SA. Fun fact: The argentian army send operators to central america, to teach the counterinsurgency and torture methods learned from the french (one of the receptors, where the CONTRAS).

The Marie-Monique Robin documentary go really deep on the french influence and presence in the LA dictatorships. Also, on the denialism from the french goverment.

PD: You can always watch “The Battle of Algiers”. Is a good representation of the French Doctrine. Later, the French School methods of counterinsurgency.

Oh Red, I have an interesting read for you: Operation Cóndor

We could also talk of the “Death Squads of the French School”.

The “School of the Americas” is just the tip of the iceberg.
