Cool. The largest org in the US that is pro-Cuban revolution is the Democratic Socialists of America

What does “fix it” mean?

Capitalism–a semblance of the status quo–continuing to function?

don’t worry, its getting lower

Unironically, Stalin’s restraint and caution in international politics was probably his worst trait. I can understand the rationale but hindsight is 20/20

Everyday we get closer to a US aircraft carrier touching the ocean floor

I think Sharkattak is arguing for the death penalty in this case

The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind.

To my knowledge, most of it from antiquity was lost. Whish is what Ibn Khaldun was speaking about, not the scholarship for the Islamic period.

“In a way [my undertaking] is an entirely original science. In fact, I have not come across a discussion along these lines anywhere. I do not know if this is because people have been unaware of it…[but] perhaps [people] have written exhaustively on this topic, and their work did not reach us… The knowledge that has not come down to us is, after all, larger than the knowledge that has. Where are the sciences of the Persians…the Chaldaeans, the Syrians, the Babylonians…the Copts and their predecessors? The sciences of only one people, the Greeks, have come down to us…as for the sciences of others, nothing remains.”

Ibn Khaldun, 1332-1406 (as translated by Rosenthal)
