  • we're not talking about a person we're talking about posts on the same subreddit from different people. by all means if the same poster did both i'd be less disposed to listen, but simply sharing forum-space with idiotic shit doesn't make everything there idiotic. i mean have you seen this website we're on?

  • this is the kind of analysis you get when you start from a cold war perspective and work backwards to explain ww2.

  • it's not a very stringent subreddit but i don't see how kissinger apologia corrupts people nickpicking the ancient/medieval content of youtuber entertainers masquerading as documentarians.

  • you can sort of trust when they're directly quoting a source. just the text of the source tho, not their interpretation or dramatization. occasionally they've been known to consult specialists but just look up 'kings and generals' on r/badhistory for a virtually endless supply of dunks. it's really bad.

  • how is zelensky going to get a country that can veto any motion to give up its veto? it's complete fantasy. i'm addressing the idea russia's veto is unfair or undeserved, but somehow everyone else's isn't.

  • here's a compromise, we get rid of all the vetos, and let the general assembly make binding decisions. surely the majority of the world's population & nations would vote in support of Western Democratic interests

  • when i was looking for chronological comparisons the French apparently decriminalized sodomy in the Revolution, just like the Soviets, but didn't ever reinstate it lol. in fact the Code Napoleon as it was promulgated to other states also decriminalized sodomy in other parts of europe, notably italy, western germany, and bavaria. germany re-banned it when unified (prussians)

  • this is not true. Cuba's been ahead of the US consistently. LGBT rights are not a finish line labelled 'gay marriage'; they decriminalized decades before the US.

    and their recent reforms are constitutional, not protections subject to whims of courts or simple parliamentary majorities. Cuba didn't roll over one day in the 2010s and suddenly decide 'we're pro lgbt now', these efforts are built on decades of acceptance & reforms, that only recently became entrenched & certified to the highest legal standard.

  • no socialist society has had a good record regarding LGBT+ rights

    Cuba does

  • no water---no piss.

    why can't you woke tankies understand this is what it takes to disrupt and innovate the marketplace? why do you hate progress?

  • meet up with my friends and say "wtf is the deal with this new policy"

    i'd wear blue jeans and say fuck these assholes, and get to go home for a day off

  • looks like they got back a bit east of Kharkiv & to the north bank of the Dneipr---long before this last big 'offensive' tho. Russia might've given that pittance of territory up in a peace deal ooth.

  • Witwit and i'm sure many others is just tragic, Russia has awful drug laws & i'm sure being Iraqi contributed to his arrest/persecution, then the only chance to get out was to get murdered in Ukraine.

  • is there really any firm reason to believe this beyond the baltics being closer? i figured after they droned moscow they had the range. ukraine not 'admitting to it' seems expected because their drone campaign is mostly just terrorism, and it doesn't seem like they accomplished anything here. the drones getting through belarussian airspace is also unsurprising while they're not on war footing & ukrainian drones have made it similarly far through active russian air defenses

  • depleted uranium is a radioactive carcinogen, and linked to substantial increases in birth defects and cancer in Iraq
