> drunken socialist sailors
Sorry, English is not my first langage what is this expression ? Why does the sailor as to be socialist ? Google didn't help me with this one.
- baublet 2y agoJust some random capitalist virtue signaling. Not really an expression people use.
- Const-me 2y agoSeems the implication is socialist sailors are spending someone else’s money on their drink, as opposed to hypothetical capitalist sailors who spend their own money. This is similar to how the AI companies mostly spending VC’s money buying these accelerators from nVidia.
- mr_toad 2y agoSailors from certain former socialist states have a reputation for drunkenness that goes beyond the normally high levels of drunkenness of other sailors.
