Even though there's International Women's Day on March 8, never forget: As well as there are many kind and good-natured women who fulfill their duties faithfully and are always there in case of need, willing to help, there are also as many of them which make more of a resemblance to Goebbel's wife.

Working as a volunteer psychotherapist at a community mental health clinic in a very bad area of Mexico City for many years, the problem of women being violent towards their male partners was much more prevalent than the reverse. Which is not the preferred narrative and seldom gets reported to authorities...because, especially in Mexican culture, the men would be seen as weak pussies.

Well... Is it so different here with males who get beaten up by women? (Okay, I know in Western societies the taboo isn't as bad as in 2nd world countries where social hierarchies are still way more firm and where it's way more a problem if you can't fit them.)

At least I find... If for males who got beaten up and abused as infants and kids by their mothers, the topic is quite tabooed. Because of all the "but it's your mother!"-shit.

The world that Western-socialized people paint to me often seems like a mixture of clichés, whitewashing in certain aspects and doom&gloom in others. And the latter two a lot in the wrong subjects. E. g. like multiculturalism that ends up in parallel socities, but still they don't want to see them.

Chairman Mao was the one who invented the Three Worlds Concept.

First World: Capitalist West
Second World: Communist East
Third World: All the rest.

Mexico is Third World.

The Third World is also where the little wars happen between the first two worlds.

Hm... Does that really trace back to him?
Didn't know about that. (Although the emphasis in my comment didn't lie on that, just saying.)

Wow! I thought, being a good Socialist born in the DDR, you would know all about this stuff. :) Perhaps you are too young. My East German and Russian friends are all around my age...50s. We share a lot of bullshit together. This is also why Landser is fucking GOLD!!! We are of that generation. We were told the same lies, given the same false hopes. I know the Landser guys. We are buddies.

Oh, then I'm definitely way too young...
And "my" way to leftism also had a different original starting point. (Even if it's already quite blurred.)
