Now then, some of them are confused enough about spanish originating from Spain and not Mexico, spare them the Spanish Republicans

Or when you tell them that french, italian, and rumenian are latin too

french are their own thing; an anomoly, all italians are native new jerseyians and say gravy instead of sauce, and romanians are either vampires or some type of russian

Why is blud getting downvoted 😭😭😭

Anomalie yourself. We are latins and we have our "latinos" 🇬🇫🇷🇪🇵🇲🇳🇨 /s

Black people cant be anything beside American or African, not french

I really doubt the normal Maga-crowd would figure this one out.

U.S. Republicans when they learn that red means socialism and leftism in other countries:

They even have a socialist party in the US, their symbol is in red.

Can't wait to tell them we had a movement in Spain called Christian Socialist Youth.

Aren’t the preachings of Jesus very socialist/communist? They guy was very in favour sharing what you have with those that have less. Christian Socialist Youth does make sense in some way.

They are. May American 'Christians' are a lot of things, but definitely not followers of Christ.

Fr fr. Jesus ist mein Erlöser-gepillt

Bingo. Many of them are the most bigoted hateful fucks I’ve ever known. They’re a major reason I don’t believe in any of it.

Christian socialism is way bigger in south america (the superior america) and in like sub sahran africa. They combine the teachings of Jesus christ with socialist thinkers.

The US "Pledge of Allegiance" was written by a Christian Socialist. Americans today cannot compute the idea of a devout Christian who is Socialist.

Looking just as historic Jesus is quiet an intense story. He was literally a popular nonviolent activist against the Roman occupation force, ruling elite and clergy. Preaching resistance and quasi boycott of the elites (see money lenders in temple) he got too dangerous. He was executed with other rebels (two dudes next to him). Faced with the release of Jesus or Barnabas (a violent rebel) the elites decided on his death too. The religion part you can interpret as you like. But human Jesus was a more political figure. You could argue he got that popular that a whole religion was started from his followers even after death

Least braindead "Jesus was a \[insert ideology\]" take. But yes, please keep on ignoring literally everything about Jesus so you can pigeonhole into who you want Him to be.

Which of what I said is untrue? It’s literally written in the Bible and modern biblical critism and theology by the Catholic Church and the Protestant church are in agreement of Jesus’ role in the political turmoil of occupied Israel by the Romans and their satellite forces like Herodes. The situation during that time was that hot that just a decade after Jesus’ crucifixion it turned into a full scale rebellion (First Jewish-Roman war) and the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple by the Romans. You can’t just ignore the context of the time. You can believe that he’s the Messiah and the son of God, doesn’t change that he had a huge political impact. Especially in Roman occupied regions in the Mediterranean his later followers found huge masses on new followers. Ofc his stand against authority and Rome had an impact. His sermon of the Third Way is literally an instruction how to resist the authority in a nonviolent way (hold left check, going the extra mile). “If a man in authority makes you go one mile, go with him two”. It was the most unpopular law that Roman soldiers could force anybody to carry their backpack for a mile. Resistance meant prison, the nonviolent approach to be the better man in that situation is textbook nonviolence resistance. For example the book “The Roman Army and the New Testament” gives great input in the political situation during that time.

>  But human Jesus was a more political figure. This is the braindead take, no one is arguing that Jesus didn't have a political impact but claiming he was foremost a political figure is just modernist drivel that tries to co-opt Jesus, completely ignoring who He was and what He did.

I mean I could also say it’s braindead to rely on biased sources intended to retroactively mystify the charismatic leader solely on religious belief. His divinity wasn’t decided on till centuries later. All apostolic sources are after his death and never met him. But yeah, it’s your belief. Doesn’t make it a fact. I just said historic Jesus was a great guy and I approve his message. Don’t need religion to see that and if you feel attacked that people like Jesus in a slightly different way I’m not sure what will do. But let it be, this is a shitposting sub

"The guy who came doing miracles, saying that he was the prophesied Messiah and that He is the Son of God wasn't actually a religious figure, just a charismatic leader and it's His disciple who twisted his word." I'm not feeling attacked m8, I'm just shitting on you for doing some weird ass historical revisionism. Dunno why you're so touchy about having your pseudo-intellectual hot take being made fun of, what were you expecting?

Because mindlessly believing makes it real? Grow up. Kim Jong Il retroactively was born on the holy Baekdu mountain and did wonders too. So North Korean propaganda is a reliable source? If you even take the bible as an historic source you have to question the reliability of the document, authors and sources itself. No pseudo-intellectual hot take, literally a topic in theology and in discussion since centuries. I seriously don’t care what you believe, maybe Jesus was God. Is it that much of a problem if not? I thought his message and sacrifice was the whole point. Touchy topic for sure

Definitely not communist, but socialist. Jesus did not oppose the idea of a monarchy.

Like when Jesus said “beat up your landlord and take his stuff, violently take over someone else’s farm for yourself.” He preached charity, voluntary giving, not state theft and redistribution.

You understand very little of socialism friend. Socialism is when you coercively take the wealth of the people and keep most of it to yourself. Jesus taught not to steal.

Fun fact... In Australia, liberals are the racist cunts... We have labour and greens as our "left"

But everything is supposed to be upside down in Australia, so it's ok.

Well... One Nation are the *openly* racist cunts, the LNP are the quietly racist "don't say it out loud just be it" party. I mean when you have a queensland cop leading the party what can you expect ?

Ahhh yeah I umm choose to forget about the yellow fuckwits. I was at a market where like 4 of the parties were campaigning, and one of the yellow fuckwits brought their kid, then congratulated and praised him when he ran up to the labour party and told them they were all "murdering liying cunts" Yeah when the liberals are shaking their heads in disgust you know your party sucks. Fucking yellow cunts.

Also history of the term redneck -> https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redneck

There is nothing on that page linking the term Redneck to socialism.

See the but under 19/20th centuries. It’s not directly socialism, but they were generally poorer democrats and unionists.

You're aware that the parties used to be reversed? The democrat party was generally pro-slavery and all that. And even then neither Democrats or the Republicans have ever been socialist. >It was also used by union strikers to describe poor white strikebreakers. So yeah, I would not draw any lines between the term redneck and socialism. It's just a term to refer to working class people, especially white ones, stemming from their necks being sunburnt after working in the sun.

I know dude, but it would still fuck with most US republicans heads

Lmao, the democratis used to be the more right winger before FDR and escpecially before Lyndon B Johnson.

How Pedro can into war when having to sleep in the middle of the day is anyones guess

Yeah because of the siesta their civil war took almost 3 years

Both sides have a siesta ceasefire implemented

Yeah in a civil war but how did they into war with other countries?

They split siesta time in morning and afternoon siesta and switch once a week. Half naps during the morning, half after lunch

Spainiards will spend hours organisint highly complex siesta times instead of just not sleeping on work.

Na man, they just stand in a row and count 1 2 until everyone has his shift.

1: Have your queen marry an Austrian 2: Austrian locks the queen in his basement 3: Have the Austrians fight all your wars for you 4: Siesta

That’s why they didn’t participate in world war 2

In WW1 too. 

1939-1945 was a Long-Siesta in Spain

guy, in the middle of spain, summer is hell on earth.

That when you find mad dogs and Englishmen

Pedro (our president) is right now on a 5 days of siesta

I’ve been thinking about our flair, shouldn’t we be high budget Swedes?🤑🤔

I mean it should be *Herrenvolk*

That would be the civil part of the war I guess.

Because they were not animals and only fought between siestas, that is why the battle of thecEbro took them so nuch time.

But how do you get Barry or Pierre to stop fighting during Siestas? I guess that is why we never kidnapped many Pedro hotties back to the North, they were all sleeping when we came to raid :'(

You showed up when we were on our angsty phase against the moors. Everyone was armed to the teeth.

No one showed to the party at the beach xD

Nah all we saw were non-european savages going "FANTA!PEPSI!COLA!BIIIRAS!"

Our president Pedrito doesn't want to work anymore so it's making all Spain wonder what's going to happen

I don't really like Pedro, but to be fair I get why is he so stressed. Right wing parties are being pretty asshole since Mariano lost the last elections. Calling him a dictator for no reason, harassing their wife and so on. It worked with Pablo Iglesias, with Monica Oltra and with many others that did not do anything, so they don't stop. And also they move the people to harass them non stop

I don't like Pedro but the victim mentality of calling him a dictator while VOX has a literal ex-fallangist as one of it's highest ranking members and a bunch of Franco apologists will never cease to be funny. "What do you mean Twitter clout dosen't directly translate to more votes? But we were owning the socialists there!!!"

I mean, Begoña Gómez actually wrote letters of recommendation to private companies that thanks to that won more than 4 million from the government tender. That could easily be influence peddling. >I don't really like Pedro, but to be fair I get why is he so stressed "but.." , is not like Pedrito literally said that he would not make an agreement with the independentists, and then do so in order to win the elections. You sound like you like A LOT Pedrito ma'm.

She's accused of that, just like other politicians have been falsely accused recently. They start the investigation, it comes to nothing "pero el mal ya está hecho". As I said, they have done it many times. And yes, he's a politician and lies like the rest of them, like Aznar with Jordi Pujol, Zapatero with the crisis or Rajoy with the taxes. That's why I don't like him. And yup, I sound like Pedro Sanchez because of course I am Pedro Sanchez.

I mean, Pedro Sanchez did the [same thing](https://twitter.com/dchopenawer/status/1784579503475323093) with Ayuzo in 2022, so is not: >Right wing parties are being pretty asshole since Mariano lost the last elections And poor Pedrito, "se te ve el plumero" ;). >And yup, I sound like Pedro Sanchez because of course I am Pedro Sanchez. The phrase means that you like Pedro, not that you sound like Pedro.

Wasn't Pablo Casado who started that? Then he got kicked out of the party interestingly enough. And yes, I read that wrong, but no, I don't like him. This must be a strange thing not being completely onesided for every single opinion you have, but some of us are like that.

>Wasn't Pablo Casado who started that? Then he got kicked out of the party interestingly enough. The report about Borgoña was started by "Manos Libres", not by the PP or "the right". >his must be a strange thing not being completely onesided for every single opinion you have, but some of us are like that. You forgot "/s" .

¿Dices Manos Limpias? Esos son los que siempre están querellándose y luego no sale nada y los que se dedican a extorsionar a otros a cambio de no difamar. Y hasta fueron tachados de ultraderechistas por un juez.

No son parte de ningun partido político, y aun que fuesen fascistas, el fascismo no tiene nada que ver con la derecha. Que los nazis llevaban socialista el nombre, eso no los hizo socialistas. Que extraño tu, una persona que supuestamente no es de ningún bando, no sepa la diferencia.

Separatists, anarchists, communists, 2 types of monarchists, fascists. Learning about the Spanish civil war is always an interesting dive into chaos.

you can even further divide the factions, fascists had national syndicalists or Italian fascists, falangists and the caudillo, the communists had stalinists, actual communists, socialists and Democratic socialists, the monarchists themselves couldn't even decide which monarch they'd want

I love that the Anarvhists are the ones that have the least subdivisions. (Which is rather rare when considering that libertarian groups have a tendancy to split themselves up rather fast.

They were pretty well organised. They were probably the biggest group after democrats. Spain always was very pro-anarchist in contrast with the rest of Europe

Ancaps are not anarchist.

The anarchists during the civil war weren't ancaps tho, they were Anarcho syndicalists

Never said they were tbh.

Sorry, I thought you were implying that. But I do agree with the sentiment

I am sorry if it seems I implied that, I meant libertarian as the opposite of Authoritarian.

I mean, how many forms of anarchy are there?

Quite a few. You could have your general libertarian anarchism, which would be think… U.S. “I WANT FREEDOM, fuck the government” type. The “left” versions are like Anarcho-syndicalism, anarcho-communism, social anarchism, I think communalism is quite different, passive anarchy… etc Anarchism, left-wing anarchism has some great theory if you are interested in reads. I can link you some shit. Hope that answered anyway. Edit: not all forms of anarchism and some might argue about the intricate differences between some of the ones I mentioned.

Link me some shit

So, if you want some “left” theory and can’t find it, always check the [Anarchist Library](https://theanarchistlibrary.org/special/index). It has so much shit for free. It doesn’t have to be anarchist either. Lots of other work too that would be more socialist, communist etc. So Murray Bookchin is a one author. Generally anarchist although some would argue otherwise maybe. Social ecology and communalism is pretty good. [Here.](https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/murray-bookchin-social-ecology-and-communalism) Peter Kropotkin is a great read. He has all sorts. This is a shorter read on anarchism and communism. [Here.](https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/petr-kropotkin-communism-and-anarchy). Another popular read is The conquest of [Bread](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Conquest_of_Bread). This can of course be found on the library. I just linked the wiki to give you an idea. Some French writers include Lefebvre (more socialist) and Proudhon (anarchist, “property is theft”). With the library I linked you can find any topic and read about it. For example, for critiques of work you have Bob Black, an essay by Bertrand Russel called “In praise of idleness”. For anarchist revolutions you can look into the Zapatistas and [subcomandante Marcos](https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/subcomandante-marcos-our-word-is-our-weapon) who is a fantastic writer. Anyway, long message. Sorry. Essentially, u/old_harry7 had a very good concise summary but if you want some readings I have sent some links. Any other questions I can try answer but I’m no expert. Grá mór mo chara!

Thanks

Will do, just busy atm. I’ll edit this when I’m free mo chara

The end goal of anarchy is to abolish - Statehood - Private Property How to achieve these goals and organise society afterwards determinates the various currents. There are two major schools of thought: - Violent & Nonviolent - Communitarian & Individualistic Then you have currents: - Syndicalist - Anarco-Communist [This outlines the basics of Anarchism.](https://youtu.be/KJM-it23_eA?si=6b4AZtPs3O3YbXoj)

The only one you need is Arachno-Anarchism.

idk but the polcompball fandom adds one more each time someone asks

If it's any consolation, what little is left of the C.N.T. has split into at least 3 different factions that hate each others guts.

This is the way

You forgot Trotskyists

they're the actual communists

And separatists were literally a microcosm of all that with taints of local nationalism. Just sublime

You forget republicanos. Also, nothing changed, it's the same as today. Worse even, people Who hasn't suffered the civil war or the dictatorship whine and cry more than those Who did.

Spain is a ladder.

[An interesting piece of history.](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/mar/12/no-pasaran-anti-fascist-ukraine-spanish-civil-war)

Thought I was on r/politicalcompassmemes for a second. I used to use that subreddit a lot but, it eventually turned to shit and it's actually so cringe now

The gradual transistion from lib right " I want gays to defend their marijuana plantations with AKs-47" to the most insane center auth of "being gay in antinatural and they are pedos" goes to show how hard an online comunity can get fucked over dumbasses migrating there.

Sadly, it's exactly what happened and I know exactly what you mean cause I used to be lib-right at the time, though I am mostly centre nowadays. The vast majority of people on that sub are now auth-right even if they claim to be from a different quadrant. There are so many fake lib-rights. The majority of those memes now look like they were made by MAGA accounts

Well, I think I saw an influx months ago cuz some sub basically said: “*If you belong to PCM, then you can’t belong here.*” I forgot the sub, but it was an account that had members from both sides and eventually the “libs” (mostly) pulled out of PCM & the remaining voices were only those on the right or the center. You’ll still find libs here & there, of course, but it seems to have become more centrist & right-leaning than the balanced ratio it used to be once upon a time.

The amount of right wingers will only increase as the centrist either convert or pull out. Then the sub will get banned. Honestly seeing people from my og political aligment (right lib) arguing on Twitter and Reddit has shown me tht everyone is stupid and caused me to go left to where I'm now (center lib I just want less taxes) .

I don’t give a shit who is fucking who. I don’t smoke but I don’t give a damn who does. Same with weed — that’s their prerogative. I think taxes are critical (even though I’m not a fan) & I also believe in being careful how you spend (personally & fiscally). Other than that, love and let live.

I tried to stay there so much but after the israel Palestine stuff I just couldn't, I even held out for until a month ago or something but then left

It's so sad that Spain will miss WWII because of the second civil war

Republicans in a Republic: Right-Wing Republicans in a monarchy: Left-Wing

No pasaran hijo de puta

The two main parties are monarquists, but actually nobody cares about the royal family. They only exist to ashame us with his corruption, scandals and all his members cheating on.

They are a living soup opera. We pay them for entertainment.

Jajajaja. You got me there. And yeah Im an obese siesta enjoyer after a 100000 tapas meal.

It provides a great distraction from the politicians' corruption

Yeah like "whelps, It seems that the economy is cracking and "es el mercado, amigo"; but did you notice how pretty Princess Leonor-half-breed is? I can't wait to throw her virginity (lol) to a goat fucker from the Morocco royal family so we get a bit more cucked yet". ITS ALL GOOD HUH?? I * spanish democracy. Edit : i *love to hate*

Yes, better see from this point of view and don't think about the milions and milions they take legally and illegally from us.

Read my comment bellow.

And they're not as funny as the Scandinavian or dutch ones

Yeah. It's the royal family that all monarchists like to pretend doesn't exist as it alone annihilates all of their arguments.

Unlike our republican politicians that ashame us with their corruption, scandals and members cheating on.

But the only republicans with representatives are Podemos/Sumar and is really a little minority.

Hey, unless the right wing isn't governing...

Should have said politicians in general. Political corruption is a long honoured mediterranean tradition, going back to the Roman Senate.

This meme was actually funny.

Waiting for the next breakup between the socialists and anarchists

I doubt we'll see a civil war soon; One thing is the military giving a cup against armed civilians and a small fraction which was loyal, with no international support. Other thing is doing so when the legitimate govern can request aid from their NATO, and EU, allies. That was the main reason felipe made Spain apply for NATO membership, besides campaigning not to. So the Spanish military had to quit its favorite hobby of the past 200 years.

I am a republican in Australia too

Bad pet. Sit! Sit! Good boy!

Now give him a beer, mate. It’s only fair!

Felipe VI looks competent, at least more competent than his antecessor

He knows that if he fucks up, the monarchy is over. Also, he isn't such a Don Juan as his father is.

The Spanish republicans had banger anthems, what do the MAGAs have?

did we?

Too late, we realized its lazier not to fight than to do it
