    Look there. My family is from the east of Belgium, the first one to be hit by the germans during both ww1 and ww2. WW1 broke out because the germans are fuckign bloodthirthy subfucks and found an excuse to massacre people. It had nothing to do with Frank Ferdinand dying on the other side of europe. They were just itching for it.

      That’s not the point I’m trying to make. As one of the ‘bloodthirsty subfucks’ I’m well aware that the war likely would have started either way, all the imperial powers in Europe were eager to try out their new weaponry. But the commenter above claims that assassinations can solve structural problems. Which I don’t think is true.

        You don’t think it’s true because you think they deserve to keep their head. Which makes you complicit to the bad things they do since it’s because of you they are still alive

          You sure know a lot about my political beliefs, huh? Check my other comment before you jump to conclusions. I don’t disagree with violence as a tactic (but I still don’t like it, and try to avoid it), but assassinations are only useful in so far as they are used to build a movement. The vindication you feel by seeing someone horrible killed will not change the system, collective action will. And that takes actual organizing, not posting Luigi memes online.

              Ah, you’re both going through my history now and exposing yourself as a shill for the modern Tsar. If you think Russian imperialism furthers the left, we can end it right here and you’ll end up on the blocklist. Have a good life!

              Also, what do you think a germanist is? lol
