Capitalist bootlickers know nothing about how planned economies can work, do they?

Also love the casual racism.

Is there somewhere I can go to learn more about Burkina Faso? I've been seeing a good amount of posts about them, but know relatively little about the government or Traore.

[–] quarrk@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

@wode_maya on TikTok makes some content about Burkina Faso (and generally features African excellence)

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

A lot of Burkina Faso's basedness came from former leader Thomas Sankara. He was a pretty respected leftist figure because of his speeches. Learning about him is a good jumping off point.

My man is emulating Thomas Sankara, not only in public policy, but in having some wild ass drip

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

The only thing he isn't emulating is the being assassinated part (god willing)

"HoW aRe ThE GoInG To PaY ThEm?!"

In case anyone wants the actual answer, they nationalised all the gold and uranium mines. Which is like... A metric shitload of money that was previously just going to french companies and their shareholders.

Do those chuds not realise that states have other sources of revenue?

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 39 points 1 month ago (2 children)

CHUDs generally don't have a great grasp of economics.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

How can that be? Middle school told them that commie bad and capitalism is freedom! That’s all the economics anyone needs to know!

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They think the government is like a household. If you spend too much you won't be able to pay your bills

[–] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

This is literally it. They take financial advice from dudebros on tiktok or facebook telling you to grind hard and buckle down, then extrapolate that to the state.

Since when has owning more stuff meant you were fucked?

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 32 points 1 month ago

Some of them assume the corrupt government is just pocketing it. Just gonna be waddling around and about with several hundred kilograms of gold in their pockets.

They believed Gaddafi had a secret hoard of gold

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

perhaps they mean that the west will not leave Burkina Faso alone

[–] Sickos@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Yeah they're fighting coups off every four months or so

Collapsing system accusing others of collapse.

I wonder what will happen when the US can no longer afford to fund chaos in these countries?

[–] jack@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

We've been seeing a retraction in that since late Trump/early Biden.

They will have to pay the CIA agents in cheeseburgers and jars of mayo

[–] sleeplessone@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

The virgin government cheese vs the chad government cheeseburgers.

Pizza parties instead of money

How does all this racism keep getting into my anticommunism???

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 32 points 1 month ago

I for one would accept goats and chicken as a form of payment.

[–] Horse@lemmygrad.ml 52 points 1 month ago

"b-but how are they going to pay the teachers!?!?!"

with the immense amount of gold and copper they mine

[–] Thallo@hexbear.net 72 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They implemented an insidious radical policy called a "public school system."
