But the Glorious Emperor of Lobsters, Crabs, Prawns, Yabbies, Crayfish and Various Other Crustaceans is too long.

Armenian PM slams 'coup attempt'
Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has faced opposition calls to step down ever since he signed a November 10 peace deal that saw Azerbaijan consolidate territorial gains.
The situation in Armenia seems complicated right now. We do not know for sure right now if the coup has succeeded or failed.
Coups generally are an assault on democracy, even bourgeois democracy. So I'm hoping it does not succeed, the Armenian people have suffered enough.

Communist Party of Burma (Myanmar)'s official statement on the military coup
The statement is in the Burmese/Myanmar language, but this may include new information/perspective on the coup.
Asking on Reddit for a direct translation. Will post once obtained.
Here's a Google translation, which doesn't seem too choppy:
Statement of the Burmese Communist Party on the current situation - 1/2021
Date : 31-1-2021
"The 2008 constitution is the mother law of all laws and if it is not respected, it must be repealed," said Brigadier General Min Aung Hlaing. Then In Naypyidaw, where security is tight, there are reports of a meeting between military representatives and the NLD. The military has called for a postponement of parliament, with expressions of reluctance to accept the election results.
These actions forced the NLD to sign the first coup d'état of 1958, in which Tate Sane's son U Nu was forced to sign a coup d'état. Is it a turning point in history? Under 2008, all governments came under threat from military rule. Bullying, coercion, coercion, c

Pravda - Seeking Truth from Facts!
I created this community, named after the Pravda (Правда), the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to elicit conversation about current world events, from a socialist perspective. Pravda is the Russian word for "Truth", and this community seeks to debate and discuss current news to find socialist truth from current events.
The point of this community is to discuss current world events from a socialist perspective, whether or not the event itself inherently relates to socialism or not.
Also, feel free to post vintage pictures of the Pravda if you want.
Coup Attempt in Myanmar - Socialist Thoughts?
Update. It's no longer a "coup attempt," it succeeded. Aung San Suu Kyi and Win Myint have been removed from office and detained. The Tatmadaw, headed by Min Aung Hlaing, are now the head of Myanmar.

Regarding the Mass Ban Wave on r/CoolAmericaFacts
Appears the creator is an anarchist and is going full authoritarianism and banning "tankies" and people active on r/GenZedong, so I just wanted to remind everyone that this sub (community, or whatever they're called on Lemmy) isn't in anyway affiliated with the mod team from Reddit and from the start I intended to keep it that way, in fact, the only reason I know about the ban wave is because I just got hit by it. The reason I made this "thing" is because I disagreed with some of their policies and had a suspicion that they would soon start purging MLs like myself.
Not much else to add. Enjoy your cool America maymays here on Lemmygrad.
