Why a seal?

Thought it would be Obama tbh

Hate to crowdsource appointees in my democracy

Stalin should've armed the KKE

I'm having trouble processing this, that's over $100 American for anything?

Of course this is at Disney World. I love that she's prepared with oils like a fucking Witcher, though I'm guessing there's more nuance to what a witcher uses in different occasions. Also concerned that smelly oils are getting in those cuts. Great work all around

Nah, you're brainwashed

What is this?

You're talking past LeninWeave. What you say is true, most professors are exploited. But the vast majority DO reproduce the hegemonic liberal worldview to their pupils, regardless of their tenure. Just as a working class person can have conservative views, a professor can repeat the western narrative. This has nothing to do with conservative anti-intellectual propaganda, which is concerned with things like CRT and maintaining the white supremacist status quo, which is very obviously not being defended here.

While it's a wild take I think it illustrates what would have been necessary for the Soviets to consider at the beginning of the cold war and we can extrapolate some of their decisions from this.

Like they honestly feared nuclear annihilation, and had good reason to, and so had to counter that with their own nuclear capabilities. I know I'm just outlining MAD but really, so much of post-revolution decision making in communist countries was survival-first, because at all points they were threatened by often better armed and richer nations, that as soon as they acquired world ending technology thought little of wiping huge populations off the map to continue western dominance. For the USSR and China, and Iran and the DPRK today, nukes were for survival. For the west, they were tools of hegemony
