    “Rubbish. You use Marxism to argue against actually existing Marxist societies. You are reactionaries.”
    ———————————————-

    This is the sort of bilge that right wing crusties and readers of the daily telegraph would say – “Marxist societies”. Jeez, what planet is this guy from?

    Therefore, the German army was winning decisively when they were retreating from the east front. Putin should hire him to become one of his military strategists or military adviser to remove all the Russian soldiers from Ukraine to win the war

    “You use Marxism to argue against actually existing Marxist societies.”

    From my knowledge of the left, you go further than others who describe “actually existing socialism” in their writings.

    You are the first I have read to call them “existing Marxist societies” which means they must exhibit certain similar features of what Marx advocated and envisaged future society would be like.

    Care to enlighten us on your sources from Marx and what those “Marxist societies” happen to be.

    The leftie do not use the term Marxist societies, they call them socialist countries, it is a term taken from the right wingers. This is our teacher on socialism. As I have always said, many peoples come to this forum to be teacher, and then, we discover that they are students. The soviet leaders did not dare to call communist the soviet society, one time Stalin wrote that there were not social classes in the Soviet Union and then he had to rectify his expression

    BD – “I don’t think the DSM-5 is often used as a basis for fashion magazine articles.

    But the arrogant dismissal of other’s concerns IS another common symptom, you might want to read up on it.”

    “TS – Come on, it was either Tween Vogue or Girls’ Life. Which was it?”

    DSM-5 is The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). It is the 2013 update to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the taxonomic and diagnostic tool published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA). It is generally regarded as the principal authority for psychiatric diagnoses. Treatment recommendations, are often determined by DSM classifications. The DSM-5 is the only DSM to use an Arabic numeral instead of a Roman numeral in its title, as well as the only living document version of a DSM.

    The reference DSM-5 301.81 (F60.81) NPD, might be particularly interesting for you to read.

    Strangely, however, it doesn’t have a diagnostic tool to help us identify clowns, although generally the clowns do a pretty good job of making themselves fairly obvious to spot.

    We don’t of course know what’s behind the Russian state’s announcement that it is to withdraw its troops from Kherson which it regards as part of its territory. But a shrewd move would be to declare Kherson an “open city”. That might be the only way to protect any pro-Russians left there from the revenge of the Ukrainian state and its secret police. It would also reduce the number of soldiers and civilians killed on both sides.

    But I doubt if it will happen.

    I think we discussed open cities here before:

    This is what the population of Kherson can expect when the Ukrainian state takes over and the Ukrainian secret police get to work:

    Like in the old days of the Soviet Union when agents of the KGB were after workers who were against the regime and they were called traitors, and many of them were executed, both regimes are oppressive, criminal and authoritarian, if the Russians win this war they are going to be looking for the so called Nazis

    “the Russian military is retreating with a huge loss of life”

    Lol. In both cases there was no loss of life. You must stop reading the Guardian.

    Kherson remains part of Russia – Kremlin
    The region’s legal status remains unchanged, says Dmitry Peskov as Russian forces redeploy across the Dnieper River

    You know as much about military strategy as you do about socialism. Ie, nothing.

    Certainly true in your case.

    “Online trolling is the practice of behaving in a deceptive, destructive, or disruptive manner in a social setting on the Internet with no apparent instrumental purpose.”

    But I have a purpose Bojo’s Brain. It’s to warn any socialist adjacent people visiting this site away from your little gaggle of reactionaries.

    Yes, the Nazi death squads would love to slaughter innocent civilians. Only, they were all evacuated. So the Nazis will have to satiate their blood lust some other way.
