I genuinely think pop/rap/rock was all better before circa 2008 and this is material rather than preference. The rise of the computer and social media changed the way music was made and understood. Rappers and electronic are worse at sampling, new artists overproduce without the skills of the insane studio producers in the 70s and 80s.

But yeah I would say they did cling to this saying the kpd should formed electoral coalition rather than being hostile cause of soviet advice.

I personally think the lynching of 400+ communists in the Weimar Republic was a bigger reason for people not voting than Joseph Stalin, much like I think the killing of what will be around 50k Palestinians is what will make Biden lose Michigan.

No debate on American Industrialists, Brothers by Stephen Kinzer is a good book. John Foster Dulles and Sullivan & Cromwell financially supported IG Farben and their collaboration is what saved the creators of Zyklon B from receiving justice.

Also I am not sure Adam Tooze would agree that Wages of Destruction or The Deluge don’t show American financial support for Nazis, because I’m pretty sure that the financial support of Americans was in the books.

As for the communist/social democrat infighting, I think it’s just a matter of semantics.

If you are a communist, you look at 1919 as the injustice done to severe ties with the social democrats. Between 1919-1923, when the SDP was the leading coalition, hundreds of communists leaders were assassinated without punishments. From 1929-1933, the Weimar Republic could not form a working government. If you were living at the time, what Hitler did seemed incredibly unlike.

If you are not a communist, you just duck your head on the earlier details and focus on the one thing that matters to you, electoratism. In a lib brain not voting is the equivalent of murder….

The correct answer to your question:

“Hamas does not use human shields, they use deez?”

Democrats : I am so sorry for your problems, I wish someone could help you. they run away from you

Republicans : only bitches have problems slaps face

Didn’t they have a game where you were a Greek god or something? How is this the one that matters?

It did……

Remember when everyone was so scared of polio and then all of the sudden we stopped talking about it?🤔

2048, a century of the government declaring war on communism.

I have the hots for Porco Rosso

I think it’s so funny people are having long debates in this comment section and it’s essentially just saying a wealthy guy may or may not be able to fly to the EU because he did something.

Literally nothing has happened and I gotta read 87 paragraphs about whether I should be a free speech absolutist or not,

Climate change was the topic that kept the light on for me. I grew up in a centrist “west wing” lib household.

It just didn’t make sense why no one wanted to do anything about a very clear cut issue, and always allowed me to ask myself questions even when I was a raving Obama fan.

Your point on class resonates. Everyone I know claims they grew up “middle class”, or if they are summer house rich they say, “upper middle class”.

I’ve never met someone who says “I am rich” or “I come from wealth” or anything like that. It’s always I grew up “upper middle class”

I worked at a giant News Media conglomerate in 2014-16.

I can say with absolute certainty that the Bernie ratfucking was an actual conspiracy from things I heard from producers and on air reporters off camera. They also very much enjoyed Trump for the ratings.

I then worked min wage jobs to get into a new career and meeting working class people for really the first time in my life

Okay so my basic understanding is that Jews living in Europe wanted their own state and the only serious option being put forward was Crimea. Crimea was essential to USSR military and the biggest voices advocating for it were killed/deported. Crimea was not an option, but the majority of Jews still remained in Eastern Europe.

After living through the Holocaust, Stalin worried that Eastern Europe would remain a tinder box of ethnic nationalism and thought the best idea was moving them to another place outside the Soviet Union. Palestine made the most sense at the time because it is the area westerners wanted and it was outside Stalin sphere of influence.

Edit: Stalins number one goals from 1945 till his death was rebuilding the Soviet Union and keeping peace with the west until strength was rebuilt.

Russia blew up their own pipeline cause Putin is cray Zee! Also Joe Biden said so!

It actually makes me so angry that Israel gives religious exceptions, but you can’t have a moral one. What the fuck how does that contradiction not start a civil war

No it isn’t. Venezuela is one of the most sanctioned nations in the world.

Diapers are straight up more valuable and less dangerous than the phone you type on. Do you like Cholera outbreaks?
