The USSR took a backwater state that was still stuck in feudalism (meaning fucking serfdom) and within a single human generation sent the first person into space. They started from a way worse state than the west and made incredible achievements. They did this without the help of first world powers, and were even hindered by constant economic warfare to boot.

Yeah, you can visit ex Soviet states and see the degradation. Most of their failing infrastructure was built under Soviet planning and has since gone to rot. Economic liberalization has brought nothing to the table, and has obviously failed utterly at whatever promises we’re made initially.

None of what I’m saying is even debatable. The economic truths of the USSR are easily learned. YOU are a western chauvinist dipshit who looks at the achievements of actual socialism and without a single bit of historical material understanding spouts some ignorant bullshit. I’ll be clear: save your breath to instead talk about whatever authoritarian atrocities were supposedly dealt out. When you talk about the economic failures of the USSR you are treading on ahistorical bullshit that has no real ground.

Didn’t Warrens staffers come out as saying that they knew Bernies sexist comments were not only taken wildly out of context but also that they knew they were taking them wildly out of context and used this angle anyways?

It’s sad because even Wikipedia has a better grasp of what happened in cases like tinyman square than these libs do. We on hexbear are haunted by the specter of Harry Potter being the only literature liberals have read on their own accord

This will change literally nothing about fentanyl abuse and smuggling while managing to make it harder for people who use it legitimately, which I guess is what we always do when it comes to drugs. Must be shitty for anyone who actually has to deal with pain these days

Sometimes I think I go to this website just because I love inflicting psychic damage on myself
