It usually doesn't end well for you, when then try you.

Crazy that we decided that France is going to keep Elsass.

uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire

They make it sound like they hurt themselves lighting up fireworks on new year's eve. 🙄

And they are doing it all by themselves, no sanctions required.

One of those two countries has both the highest suicide rate in the world, AND the lowest fertility rate. Liberals hate discovering which one is the shit hole where people don't want to live.

I don't have communist friends in the Philippines, so I don't have the insights that you got, most of what I know about them is from the documentaries "Inside the New People's Army" and "Revolution Selfie", which might present a idealised view of their revolution. But I know that their split with PKP was rather dirty, and the bombing Plaza Miranda was a terrible accelerationist move.

Other than their support to the rural population, I appreciate their effort to try to preserve the environment from companies known to disregard it by sabotaging their operations, and also their support for LGBT rights.

I'm open to hearing more about the criticism Filipino communists have towards them.

The NPA didn't succeed in the revolution, but they still provide a lot of support to rural population, in healthcare notably. We have to give them that.

Spartacus started airing in 2010, and Game of Thrones in 2011, so that's probably not it. But otherwise, you're right when you say that Spartacus is very focused on bloody bullet time action scenes, ancient cursing about Jupiter's cock, and tiddy fiestas and not much on telling an actual story.
