Met bunch of assimilated Russians in the baltics who full on praise Hitler.

2017-06-09 16:02:56 UTC  

But for some of the Russian minority praising Stalin is like a way of saying "We used to own you, we wuz big, we wuz stronk".

2017-06-09 16:03:06 UTC  

So it's an immediate shitstorm.

2017-06-09 16:05:05 UTC  

@Kombat-Unit I just don't know how to process what I'm seeing there, haha.

2017-06-09 16:05:46 UTC  

“In a nutshell, any other decision today, and I’m leaving the country. We already have Swiss passports and we shall be there next week.

“I don’t have a Swiss passport, but I will try and get out the country any way I can, because I couldn’t afford to stay here.”

Corbyncaust already in effect.

Speaking of Greens, i was in Georgia this weekend and saw in the White suburbs, the most Green Party signs i have ever seen in my life

2017-06-09 16:17:46 UTC  

How bad are the US Greens?

2017-06-09 16:18:12 UTC  

I mean like 70% of their platform could be mistaken for ours, but that 30% is pozzed as hell

2017-06-09 16:18:26 UTC  

almost totally insignificant until recently

2017-06-09 16:18:28 UTC  

EU Greens are the worst party hands down, pro-incest pro-pedophilia. No white sharia soon enough.

2017-06-09 16:18:37 UTC  

but the last election saw them get a lot of organizers and chapters

2017-06-09 16:18:48 UTC  

the wave of the future is third parties in america on the local level

2017-06-09 16:18:57 UTC  

i mean the Socialists got a council member for the city council of seattle

2017-06-09 16:19:03 UTC  

that hasnt happened in literally generations

2017-06-09 16:20:07 UTC  

The US political system still fucks me up a bit, it's so simple with unitary country. How high positions have 3rd parties achieved, currently and in general?

2017-06-09 16:20:51 UTC  

Historically, a lot

2017-06-09 16:21:16 UTC  

the Communists and Socialists in the 19th and early 20th century had State lawmakrs by the hundreds, thousands of local offices, even Congressmen

2017-06-09 16:21:30 UTC  

The Constitution Party has as well

2017-06-09 16:21:47 UTC  

We arent going to win the Senate or the House, but we can use this system to take over regions on the local level

2017-06-09 16:23:33 UTC  

...yet. Have there been successful nationalist third parties? Oddly enough I know the fringe of the fringe very well, anything approaching mainstream, not so much.

2017-06-09 16:23:52 UTC  

The Klan controlled entire States in the 20s

2017-06-09 16:23:59 UTC  

It was as Democrats, but they ran it

2017-06-09 16:24:15 UTC  

Yeah, Klan, fair enough.

2017-06-09 16:24:59 UTC  

Indiana actually had the Governor and majority of the State legislature and the Federal offices all picked by the Klan

2017-06-09 16:25:42 UTC  

Our issue has been vision. You cant launch a national crusade if you dont have infrastructure to do so, and local support

2017-06-09 16:25:47 UTC  

I mean Wallace ran as Third Party

2017-06-09 16:25:52 UTC  

won about the entire South

2017-06-09 16:27:00 UTC  

He won about 10 million votes

2017-06-09 16:27:38 UTC  

And if he had won 1 or 2 more States, which he came very close to do, he would have been able to have an insane amount of leverage with the other candidates to make them adopt his platform

2017-06-09 16:30:48 UTC  

I think organizing locally is the only way to get a national movement off the ground.

2017-06-09 16:31:02 UTC  

Gotta build the cart before you get a horse to tie to it

2017-06-09 16:33:23 UTC  

Exactly. I think it's possible for TWP to get a foothold on certain corners of the US. If the Mormons can, in places like Utah, we can in Appalachia. It's very realistic.

2017-06-09 16:34:49 UTC  

Same goes for Vegas and most of Rural Nevada

2017-06-09 16:35:44 UTC  

Exactly 100%

2017-06-09 16:35:47 UTC

Europe is just bit ahead of the curve when it comes to radicalism and political violence. Due to a combination of historical factors, life has been pretty chill in US, violence has been more racial than political, and state has very successfully kept the monopoly of violence for +100 years. The two party system and fetishization of independent militias has also probably contributed to the lack of political violence. It's all very summary and spontaneous, and even despite of Klan's reputation they were pretty amicable bunch and willing to take part in the democratic process. While here we have a 100 year history of two dozen competing parties with their own militias and enforcers and at least two wars and a civil war within that century.

2017-06-09 16:36:07 UTC  

I have no doubt shit will hit the fan big time over there as well.

2017-06-09 16:37:09 UTC  

@Kombat-Unit agree 100%. we are in the beginning stages of civil war here. It's inevitable.

2017-06-09 16:38:20 UTC  

I just find it funny every time how SocDems used to have their own militias in several countries. While in 2017 we have "nazis" complaining about how rifles and self defense will give us a bad name.
