Everything that was broken has forgotten its brokenness. I live now in a sky-house, through every window the sun. Also, your presence. Our touching, our stories. Earthy and holy both. How can this be, but it is. Every day has something in it whose name is Forever.
~ Everything That Was Broken by Mary Oliver
Cowboy Jango
Jango- about his clones
I know people look at this like he's just dismissing his clones, but to me, he always looked regretful here. He's not saying he isn't proud of his clones. But rather that he's not proud of himself. He sees the clones and their personalities and is ashamed of the deal he made.
Finally someone gets it!
This is the face of a man wondering what devil's bargain he made!
This is Jango burying his heart, because he sees the clones and sees their personalities and what rubs salt into the wound is he sees Boba in their faces and he knows each and every one of those soldiers could've easily been a Boba or Boba could've been them.
And he hates that. He hates that he has morality and understands that this is fundamentally wrong, but his word is his bond, his signature is binding. So he'll stomach it, but regret it quietly.
most gorgeous big brown eyes you've ever seen vs. staring into your soul
happy pride month :]
@inonibird fueled my Qymean hyperfixation back in the late 2010's so it's only fair that I pay tribute by actually giving back to all the other Qymean fans out there!
I have some other sketches of him but they're not nearly as high quality as this one so I might not post them. Anyway this guy has been taking up space in my brain again he should be paying rent 💥

we've never seen socialism existing on its own terms. every socialist project has existed under a constant state of siege by the capitalist world, which is determined to overthrow it. when you scoff that the state has never withered away in any Marxist-Leninist country, you're really scoffing that global capitalism hasn't been defeated yet, because that's what forces socialist projects to maintain their state. you might as well be scoffing at people for not floating while gravity still exists
"But a real socialism, it is argued, would be controlled by the workers themselves through direct participation instead of being run by Leninists, Stalinists, Castroites, or other ill-willed, power-hungry, bureaucratic cabals of evil men who betray revolutions.
"Unfortunately, this 'pure socialism' view is ahistorical and nonfalsifiable; it cannot be tested against the actualities of history. It compares an ideal against an imperfect reality, and the reality comes off a poor second. It imagines what socialism would be like in a world far better than this one, where no strong state structure or security force is required, where none of the value produced by workers needs to be expropriated to rebuild society and defend it from invasion and internal sabotage."
— Michael Parenti, Blackshirts and Reds, pp. 50–1.
Wow I just suddenly remembered visiting this one museum when I was in Berlin that had no good thing to say about the GDR, while simultaneously praising Ronald Reagan as the bringer of peace and democracy
"Reagan's vision for creating world peace consisted of halting communist dominance and expansion. Reagan supported the Contras in their fight against the communist government in Nicaragua, aswell as the government of El Salvador in its fight against communist guerrillas. In 1983, Reagan sent U.S. troops to Grenada to liberate the country from the oppressive marxist dictatorship, and he helped the Afghan rebels in their fight against Soviet troops in Afghanistan. Thanks to Reagan's worldwide commitment to freedom, democratic elections were held for the first time in many countries around the world, including the Republic of Korea, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and the Philippines."

There's a tendency in IR discourse that I've noticed where the fact that many so-called “authoritarian regimes” curtail what is often labelled as the “freedom of speech” of individuals is framed as evidence of some innate illegitimacy, often presented as a desperate gambit to maintain the power of those in control. I think this is a fundamental mistake. So-called “democratic” countries can afford free speech because they exist within a normative hierarchy stabilised by international institutions, the primacy of their economic systems, and, of course, an as yet unchallenged position within the world order. This makes them more resilient to ideological destabilisation, not because of any innate moral superiority of their systems or ideologies, but because they occupy a materially and normatively privileged position within a particular historical context. As the material power of this world order declines, its normative power follows suit, and this is already evident as states long self-styled as bastions of free speech become less willing to tolerate dissent, from the US to Germany, while at the same time states considered repressive begin experimenting with gradually opening space for discourse.
this misses that the enforcement of free speech laws requires a comprehensive surveillance regime carried out by a wealthy and functional bureaucracy. in practice free speech freedoms in china are far more limited than third world regimes, and obviously the chinese system not at more risk of ideological destabilisation than nepal given what has happened. shoring up a position in normative power through control is only possible with a chunk of some material power.
Wealthy systemic competitors to the normative hegemony of the liberal international order are obviously more at risk of sabotage and destabilisation and have social classes that are more vulnerable to trasformismo than poor or aligned countries. This means they are going to devote more resources and develop more sophisticated methods of maintaining their internal discursive consensus; this is a given.

The commodification of Che Guevara's image, far from being an ironic attack against Che & Communism, is perhaps his greatest victory. The propagation of his copyright-free photo, plastering the face of one of the greatest Communist revolutionaries in history across the globe, is a victory for Communism. Each time someone asks who Che was, looks up what he fought for or reads his work because of some shirt or some mug, the capitalists are once again selling us the rope with which we will hang them
