Uh I hate Zionism as much as the next guy, but the province was Judea at the time, it was renamed by Hadrian in the 2nd century as he kicked the Jews out and renamed the province after the ancestral enemies of the Jews and also the Roman God. There is far more evidence for the Jewish Diaspora than there is for some dude named Jesus.

Lenin was a stooge for imperial Germany to remove Russia from the war. He set back the cause of socialism 100 years. I have very little sympathy.

Ok forgive me as a foreigner, which party is he talking about?

Ghost Leviathan posted:Bigotry isn't a belief system. It's a hobby, a form of escapism and leisure. The Klan started dressing up as 'ghosts' as a joke as they terrorised and murdered black people. The KKK robes are so obviously purposed to maximize dehumanization of its members. With their faces covered, each member just a uniform in the crowd, each person can rationalize their participation in inhuman act. They are merely members of the group, individual acts unattributable to the people you see in church on Sunday. This is the main purpose of a uniform, just like those cops wearing riot gear

Not So Fast posted:This was a much better take on this tbh. Yeah, you shouldn't want violent revolution. But if things keep going this way then it is inevitable. And I don't want another Lenin. We can't repeat the past, especially as 1917 Russia is a very different society to present day western societies. Also I'll say it again: Lenin was a stooge of Imperial Germany. It's not that he did no good, but who owned the train from Switzerland to St Petersburg?

CharlestheHammer posted:he wasn’t a stooge in any sense. Getmany used him for their own ends but there is zero evudence Lenin was influenced by Germany which is sort of important I should have said he was used as a stooge, which is pretty undeniable. Dan Carlin has a good podcast about it, even tho he is a classical liberal. He paywalls his older episodes so I can't link it. The main problem is that Russia was never going to be a good place to start the international revolution. Communism requires an industrialized economy and is not that good at transitioning from a mostly agricultural economy. I guess I have been playing too much Kaiserreich Edit: Germany achieved its aims when Lenin signed the Treaty of Brest. The economic hardship suffered by Russia led directly to Stalin, and while how Stalin benefitted the Soviet Union can be argued, it definitely was not good for the image of socialism in the western world. exmachina has issued a correction as of 00:43 on Nov 2, 2020 |

Cerebral Bore posted:i can already tell that you have no earthly idea what you're talking about, but don't you find it slightly curious that the only third-world countries that actually managed to industrialize successfully without massive outside aid are the communist ones and Japan? Singapore as a counter-example? Taiwan as well but that is for geopolitical reasons Yeah I don't know poo poo, as opposed to every other poster in this thread, I guess And also Marx himself, who based his theory around the what we would now call 1st world proletariat. I have never said that China wasn't an example of a Marxist-Leninist(-Maoist) success story but industrialization of both the Soviet Union and the PRC did not go smoothly. exmachina has issued a correction as of 22:36 on Nov 2, 2020 |

Where the hell is a 18th century agricultural or factory worker in Britain gonna get some cayenne pepper? They used the flavours they had available, like you can make some hearty soups and stews using aromatic vegetables and meat scraps but it will taste bland to the modern palette. Now if you are criticising white people for having an unadventurous palate that is something different.

Every time anti-fascist or counter-reactionarys have to go out on the street to fight against the latest bullshit, the real enemies laugh. I'm not saying we don't do it, we have to do it.

He wrote Burmese Days very early in his career and while it is undoubtedly full of casual and outright racism, he acknowledges the corrupt power structures he his helping to set up and perpetuate for the Empire's interests. He said himself that Burma was a key step in his own radicalisation.

Isn't it well established that orgs like the CDC didn't want a run on masks while the medical field was still trying to secure stocks for their own use? I'm pretty sure that's what was happening here in NZ where the message stayed that masks were not necessary until at least June. It is also true that masks are not so good at protecting the wearer and may cause people to engage in riskier behaviour.

Oh yeah it was a massive gently caress up. The business I work for still has procedures from when fomites were the big thing. At the time I knew it was bullshit but you can't supply masks for billions of people overnight and as several of my relatives work in healthcare I know that PPE shortages were a real thing in March to July. Here in NZ is wasn't that masks were not effective but that they were not necessary
