The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command

Relationship expert here - if you have a lib partner, it’s a great time to rant about how bad Kamala is

Supposedly they are holding off striking Israel until after the election because they think it would help Trump. I guess the idea is Trump is such a wildcard there’s more chance he could just say fuck it and start an all out war with them

Tucker Carlson claims he was ‘mauled’ in bed by a demon in an attack that left claw marks on his body. Tucker also sleeps in bed with his four dogs. This raises an obvious question - why didn’t the dogs protect him from the demon?

I know that's what Kruschev tried to do, but he went about it in the worst possible way, so I don't think his failure is proof that the aim was wrong. What would you say the alternative was?

And wasn't the bloated conventional military one of the primary reasons for the economic stagnation of the 70s? Most of those forces were just standing around waiting for an invasion that never came, and it never came because of the nuclear deterrent. Even in Afghanistan the USSR didn't really utilize its professional forces, they used conscripts instead - let alone in the various proxy wars

Yes there probably needs to be some kind of political class purge, but the general population was exhausted from purges, rapid industrialisation, and then WW2. The USSR needed to stop trying to match the US militarily and rely on nukes for defence rather than an insanely big and expensive conventional force. Invest those resources into culture and raising living standards instead.

That’s good. The fact that people can see what’s happening there due to videos and images from Palestinians is having a huge effect in overcoming the pro-Israel media narratives in the West. Incidentally I saw Israel claim the other day that they bombed a hospital because Hamas was ‘using it for internet access’ which is so absurd even by their standards.
