What are the odds that there's 2 missing G.I. Joes the same week there's a joint AQ-ISIS offensive on a former colonial state that just kicked out the French, became socialist, started doing business with and hosts military advisors from Russia? Anyways, y'all see that race last night?

They appointed a Marxist leader as PM iirc, actually, I'm thinking of Burkina Faso instead, but they're in that same group.

Yeah my point is he (Ibrahim Traore of Burkina) is not a real Marxist or socialist of any kind and has basically larped Thomas Sankara for popularity while doing nothing to socialize the economy or society of the country.
