Samurai: feudal landlords
Ninjas: basically just peasants.
Gotta go with the working peoples.
Yeah, protracted people’s war by ninjas
Don’t you mean:
FUCK YEAH! PROTRACTED PEOPLE’S WAR BY NINJAS!
Remember, the Satsuma rebellion was a class struggle between the industrialist progressive forces versus the landlording reaction…

No, ninjas were just mercenary peasant-warriors/spies.
I would say they’re not wrong, in that despite almost exclusively coming from lower class and peasant families due to the ‘dishonorable’ methods they used, ninja often acted as secret police, bodyguards and military advisers for powerful feudal lords. But “ninja” is such a broad term it also includes spies, scouts, saboteurs, guerilla warfare experts, basically anyone that used deception or skullduggery in any capacity.
they were the same people a lot of the time, people think of samurai like these super honorable lawful almost religious guys but that was made up after samurai were irrelevant (kinda like europeans and knights), back in the day, if you weren’t willing to cheat, lie, steal, murder, etc. for your Daimyo, you weren’t really loyal at all - many ‘ninja’ were simply samurai or their men concealing their identity, or were otherwise specialist mercenaries hired by samurai/feudal lords in secret. in some eras and places Samurai would even test new blades by hiding near a road and sneaking up and killing peasants at night, a good sword was supposed to kill in 1 clean cut - sounds very much like Ninja behavior to me.
they were basically the same as european knights, bloodthirsty warlords working for the local barons, and they would absolutely use stealth or subterfuge to accomplish their lord’s will, because they were more or less intelligent rational people trying to accomplish material goals, not cartoon zealot idealists obsessed with ‘honor’ and ‘purity’ - the only ‘honor’ is serving your lord, the only ‘purity’ is in unwavering loyalty.
That’s pretty interesting
It ain’t called a don’t-hickey I tell you hwhut.

You get to choose between Big Mom and Kaido, Luffy’s just not electable sweaty.
Vote big no matter who
Samurais are always going to be feudal landlords. Ninjas are a lot more like guerillas.
There’s no chance of a samurai bring a comrade while a ninja could be.
If I remember right, originally ninjas had like their own specific clan that rich people from other clans would hire to basically do a hit on their competitors/enemies/rivals. Taking money from rich people to kill other rich people ain’t too bad of work
That must be why some of the OG Bolsheviks robbed banks. No need to be hired by the rich to kill the rich. Just steal their money and kill the rich.
cut out the middle man?
YES.
Gotta go with ninjas. There could be one hiding in your room right now
A ninja was the main character of probably the most famous Marxist manga ever, so I think the choice is obvious.
I gotta read this wtf ty
This looks cool, but where do you read it? I couldn’t find any English translations on nyaa.si
There is no English translation, official or fan made
I did find out today there’s apparently going to be an official English release this year
Oh that’s great, I will look forward to reading it once it’s released!
More info here–it’s scheduled to come out January 14, 2025, so not too far off!
Ninjas are aesthetically cooler
if you don’t VOTE for ninjas, you’ll never get to vote again
Probably ninjas
Something something Iga Soukoku Ikki
