At least there isn’t a My Little Pony in the jar.

I seriously hate these people more than Trump.

I mean, did they do literally no research into what his policy proposals were? What the repercussions would be for those in her line of work? Did it not occur to her that the migrants she pays shit wages to were the people he was ranting about deporting?

The answer, of course, is no. She did no research. She dedicated no meaningful thought to it. She wanted to fuck the liberals because they put Harriet Tubman on a twenty dollar bill and she heard about the three trans athletes in her entire state and that was about where her consideration of the matter ended.

On a just barely positive note, we dedicate a frankly stupid amount of funding to keeping farms going despite their being laughably uncompetitive, most of the funding not really helping our food supply or economy, so it would probably be for the better if these cuts stick and idiots like her are forced to actually run their farms like businesses instead of thousand acre welfare queens.

In answer to the question of “why,” because the alternative is accepting that Stalinist communism sucked and the people of the Eastern Bloc rejected it when they got the chance, which is antithetical to tankie thought.

The majority of Congressional Democrats tried to let the government shut down.

What would constitute fighting?

People keep complaining about Democrats not doing anything, but under current constraints there isn’t much they can do.

People seem to spend more time complaining about Democrats not opposing Republicans than they do complaining about Republicans destroying America.

The district’s gone red for twenty years. So, yes.

“Free candy.”

Alice in Wonderland.

Even by the standards of terminally online rich people, he is thin skinned.

It is actually kind of astounding.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll go through with his denuclearization plan and that will finally be the straw that breaks the camel’s back and the military will take him out.

How depressing that our best case scenario is a military coup.

Evolution meant to tell you to get out of the gene pool.

I didn’t hear the media calling Adams getting in a bellweather. Everyone knows NYC is basically the most Democratic place in the country.

And Joe in South Carolina has already made up his mind about New York and Democrats and anywhere else with a sizable population of people who aren’t White or straight.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll move against the nuclear arsenal and the Army will finally give him the boot.

Welcome to lemmy.

That won’t be an institutional Democratic problem. That will be a “people of New York” problem.

This will be the thing that finally gets us gun control.

And you cited a website that denies the Uyghur Genocide and the Holodomor.

You’re doing genocide denial.

Right. Beria was well known for his trigger discipline.

It wasn’t that impressive for the people living there. Otherwise they wouldn’t have rejected it.

Debunked, according to a genocide denying Russian propaganda asset.

To portray the opinion of Stalinists. Which they contrast with actual data and the opinions of actual historians.

How about you cite some of those liberals, instead of a tankie rag?

“Expand as an ideology” is a strange way to say, “they weren’t shot for disagreeing with the Party.”

The reforms didn’t weaken the economy. The economy was weak, therefore there were reforms. And it’s not cherrypicking, the Soviet system worked poorly, objectively.

Nostalgia doesn’t prove anything. What they feel now has nothing to do with what the people felt at the time.

Read Robert Conquest.

No, you denied that the Soviet Union was a dictatorship. The GDP does not effect that.

And books describing the Soviet Union as a totalitarian dictatorship are used as reference. Wikipedia is providing a variety of opinions of the Soviet government. It’s not declaring Pat Sloan the sole source of truth on the question of human rights in the Soviet Union.

You clearly don’t care about being righteous or correct.
