They have other means of retaliation, notably, arming western enemies. Although thisninstance was cancelled

3 day invasion

The idea that they planned for it to be 3 days was completely made up.

Let’s see if it pays off for them.

Quite the attitude to have when the west is losing wars on like 4 fronts (gaza, yemen, ukraine, and lebanon) simultaneously. That too while having shit military industrial capacity.

By capturing Russian territory Russia now has a reason to come to negotiations to just call everything off to get their land back.

Ukraine captured land in kursk and this did not cause the Russians to come to the negotiating table, nor signal that they will weaken their demands. In fact, they simply started taking land even faster in Ukraine because Ukraine had committed resources into kursk instead of the front lines.

All it goes to show is that westerners have a complete non-understanding of this war.

Well, at least Russia will further supply enemies of the west in retaliation.

Nato is as much a “mutual defense” pact as sea lions are lions. These guys bombed Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq and countless other nations. The members of Nato have repeatedly cooperated with each other, using the military networks built through the alliance to wage proxy wars, perform coups, destabilise regions of the world at a scale never before seen in human history.

You might as well call the axis a mutual defense alliance lmao.

I mean America is a fascist country though. After all, it still has legalised slavery and killed millions of innocent people in this century alone. It’s only natural for such a country to elect fine specimens just as Trump or Biden.

You still didn’t answer the question.

He did, you just lack reading comprehension.

The ruling elite was the Communist party, mostly people near the top who were able to obtain key government positions that they would exploit for personal gain especially in later years of USSR.

The Latter years of the USSR are notorious for being fucked, but this does not address the middle or early years.

Mentioning that some guy was Ukrainian with in the regime while not mentioning Holodomor is OG 🤡

Ah yes, the famine which affected all of the Soviet Union (and Kazakhstan more in terms of deaths per capita) which even the inventors of the narrative of genocide (Robert conquest) no longer call genocide.

Must he nice being a communist while enjoying benefits of western society lol

I love the benefits western society! I get to enjoy half my income go to some landleech and fund war crimes in the middle east! I can’t wait to see which climate change fueled disaster kills me, or maybe the fascist death squads will be the ones to do me in!

In a country where the government m is just 3 corporations in a trench coat, this is a meaningless distinction. None of these people give the slightest fuck about what the public thinks on any given issue and will work with the Democrats to undermine any public movement that tries to assert its will (see gaza protests which are just the latest example of this).

I find it hard to believe that a Harris presidency would stand idle.

Harris is the motherfuking vice president of the administration sending tens of billions of dollars worth of weapons to Israel. What in the actual fuck are you talking about? Are liberals genuinely this clueless?

This is an all-hands on deck fight against the fourth reich.

Yes, we should all work to destroy the American empire.

Even people who suck for the reasons you correctly list are willing to point out that trump sucks.

… what? You mean, the “fourth reich” is not the empire which keeps bombing and genociding and looting its way round the world, but is just … some guy? Who can be defeated by saying he sucks?

getting the water out of the boat alongside us now.

The Democrats (and republicans) are the water in the boat.

the guy who bombed the shit out of Yemen to help Israel “finish the job” before turning against Ukraine and then domestically.

This applies literally to both candidates. The Biden admin hasn’t been slacking off in suppressing your civil rights as much as possible.

If you actually want to avoid full-blown Fascism in America

The world empire ruling over humanity with an iron fist, who’s founding act was the liquidation of an entire continents worth of people is somehow not “full blown fascist” yet.

But I think we all agree that Trump is an even more aggressive piece of shit in comparison.

How the hell is trump worse than bush era republicans or Mike fucking pence?

I mean, if you get into any real depth with math, you are going to reach a point where you can’t use conveniently use words to describe the symbols being manipulated.

As an example for the math I am doing literally right now, I very much prefer using C⁺_R compared to “semi circular arc in the upper half of the complex plane with radius R”, or M⁺(f(z)) which means “Maximum of the magnitude of the function f(z) over C⁺_R”, which if I were to write out in full, would just become a clusterfuck.

Also you still wouldn’t be able to get rid of symbols because some symbols are placeholders and straight up don’t have any meaning in natural language. This occurs often in physics as well, not just pure maths. For example, the laplace transform of any function is written as a variable of “s”, but “s” doesn’t have a clear meaning (at least as far as I know).

I personally lost all interest in math because there are way too many opinionated or non-standard symbol definitions

That seems like a strange reason to quit math since most symbols are pretty well agreed upon, and maths has little to do with the actual notation either way.

I would have quit math if I had to do algebra with names instead of letters.

Would be based if it happened, but it could never happen under the UN as it exists

Complain more on the same internet invented mostly by the country you hate?

Says the guy from the country which is by far the bigger drain of Industrial products in human history (you owe the planet something on the order of $50 trillion from the trade imbalance alone iirc). And that’s not counting for hundreds of millions killed from pollution, poverty, wars, co2 emissions and so on.

No, they’re not the same. None of us are buying it.

The American empire is the American empire regardless of who is in charge. Let’s get off our great-man theory high horse and actually analyze material conditions

There is not too many of us in India. India is an urbanizing society, meaning that there is a large amount of migration from rural areas to urban areas, leaving urban areas with a surplus population and driving down urban wages. This is a process that all capitalist countries went through at some point in their lifespans, including England, whose example Marx analyses 200 years ago. Back when its population was on the order of 10 million (it is over 80 million today).

By providing full employment, the communist countries were able to industrialize very rapidly while maintaining decent wages. It is a capitalism problem.

Yes to all but the last 2. Reducing meat consumption for a communist society is as simple as allocating less resources to meat production or stopping it altogether. Reducing car use is also simple if you have efficient city designs. For example, the USSR made plenty use of micro-districts (today they would be called “15 minute cities”), which allowed the population to go around using public transport. And the Chinese HSR system allows chinese citizens to travel around the country very efficiently and have vacations and such.
