Ok from what I get they are conservatives which support a welfare state? Since People Like teddy and Bismarck were still reactionary social conservatives. We had something like this in britain under the tory party in the 1920/1930s. Might as well drop the ‘progressive’ label since they’re still staunchly racists.

Didn’t the previous communist leader disappear too? I remember reading a few years ago that he was found missing. Probably dead.

What cfgaussian said, Ukraine can use very efficient means to hide their drones (such as using carboard or flying very low to avoid detection) missiles do not have this luxury, they have a very short time frame, hit hard and fast. And Anti-Missile weaponry has been more developed than Anti-Drone weapons, military targets in russia have also been very fortified, and while these missiles can reach as far as moscow. There’s prominent speculation just how realistic this is.

the shells used by the AFU cannot be destroyed using conventional means, western missiles are expensive, and few in quantity, and Anti-Missile Warfare is a lot more advanced than you think. Storm shadow missiles have been routinely destroyed despite their ‘stealth’ and ‘speed’. ATACMS on the other hand are not, so these missiles will be intercepted, even then russia would destroy the depots which house these missiles.

It’s also a myth that the reason these missiles were not delivered then was due to any perceived moral red lines(seriously a western politician having things like foward-thinking? Pah). No these missiles have to procured, developed, shipped and sent, all of this takes months especially in america, where military infrastructure is severely lacking. Another thing is these companies who make these missiles are very shy about their products, probably because they seriously underperform their own tasks.

The situation in Afghanistan for the soviets and Americans is not really as compatible with each other as people might think. The Soviet Union had to deal with rebels whom were continuously supplied with American weapons, and with some Wahhabi propaganda from the Saudi’s mixed in with some American anti-communist propaganda, you had 10,000s of volunteers fighting against soviet soldiers. The Soviets also fought to keep the entire country secured, even the countryside, which led to high casualties for both soviet soldiers and the mujahedeen.

Whereas the Americans were fighting the taliban, whom were a splinter group from the mujahedeen, and was busy fighting other mujahedeen splinter groups and the ‘democratic forces’ which the US backed, no one supplied weapons to the Taliban, no one single country endorsed ‘jihad’ to fight american occupation unlike the one we saw during the soviet war in Afghanistan. Yet the yanks still lost.

Doubt this missiles will lead any significant damage, let alone even a scratch to the SMO. Russia’s Air Defences have reached impeccable qualities and the electronic warfare deployed by russia can scramble these missiles if they ever try hitting military targets, likely these missiles will be used to hit crimea, maybe some bridges, maybe a dam, or some obscure airfield far north of russia. These missiles will be gone just like the rest of the wunderwaffes

I really do wish I asked my grandad his opinion on these people (he was a dire-hard communist and worked in the engineer’s trade union as a wire factory worker).

He really was the best guiding figure for my child years, he introduced me first to socialism, taught me about working hard, and told me reading must be crucial to my generation. Never harboured hate for anyone, even people who wronged him.

how? generally how? By freezing the conflict? - Nope russia will not allow it

By ramping up production of military supplies? - Nope the west cannot provide the same support annually to ukraine, several US officials confirmed this, and say the support will dwindle in 2024.

On the other hand, Russia has organized their army, assimilated militias/paramilitary groups, upped military production significantly, and is waiting until the offensive dies down so it can bombard ukraine over the winter.

There looks to be russian offensive somewhere in 2024, so no, ukraine won’t win by 2025, by the looks of it, they’ll lose in 2024.

What are you even rambling on about? You’re beginning to sound like those tin foiled doomsday fetish believers, “I am truthpilled, you’re just soyjacks who are brainwashed!”

Grow up, you’re not arguing or even discussing, what’s your point? That we are brainwashed? Yet you regularly cite works from sources which are long been debunked.

Zero political awareness, read something then come back here, no we won’t engage if you act like a child.

His disdain for the soviet union, which he regularly discusses.

I am sorry are you believing in putin’s words now? Ok russiabot

all of these sources come from western analysts during the cold war, all of whom belonged to western think tanks designed to propagate misinformation against communism.

Your sources are inflated by people long dead and their relatives pump this same shit for you to consume. Gulags existed, so does labor camps in america, america also regularly massacred students and workers. And caused a silent famine to happen in the midwest, yet you scream communism to drown out any forms of alternative information you feel uncomfortable about.

This substack goes into detail on this fucking weirdo + other nazi shit thats been happening in ukraine

btw this substack covers this attack well: https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/sitrep-83023-ukraine-smokescreens

TL,DR: Ukraine did attack pskov field, and the reasons how it happened are:

1. Ukraine uses cardboard as a way to go undetected on radar, its crude but effective.
2. Likely it was smuggled into russia proper, how you may ask? Don’t know but either it could be the “anti-putin partisans” or some ukranian agents or could just be some insane people ukraine hired.
3. Pskov airfield never had any military targets, like none at all, there was some planes, but nothing that can damage the war effort in any way. So air defences would be insanely light.

That’s how the attack happened, really this is more of a stunt to get russia mad and for some publicity. But really from a practical and technical standpoint, this attack was once again, a useless one. This will be forgotten about in a month or two.

Amazing a settler like you deserves any kind of moral authority when your entire nation has wiped a whole race of people from the face of the earth. Why tf are you even talking to me about Japanese crimes against humanity, I am talking about the unnecessary american war crimes in ww2, japan was a shitty imperialist nation, why would I defend it?

I am not from the country which actively encourages the rehabilitation of the genocidal japanese empire, and seeks a new wave nationalism within japan to share the spear. So how about you list those war crimes to your nearest politician, and get that message to them since they clearly have not got it.

r/shitliberalsay is a good socialist subreddit I frequent there, I recommend it more than any other socialist subreddits.

it was definitely genocide, what we’re criticising is the war crimes committed by the americans.

lmao they only refused the unconditional surrender, which detailed the complete occupation of the nation, removal of the emperor, and the arresting of all their politicians which the japanese told the americans it was unacceptable (however they agreed to the occupation).

Well guess what? The fucking americans didn’t even bother doing their conditions right and just accepted japans previous proposal, and this was AFTER they firebombed tokyo to dust, and nuked 100,000s of people. What a shitty decrepit nation you have there.

this image depresses me.

1800s by the sound of it

I’d argue we are going as far back as the 1920s, with the global economy on the verge of imploding, socialism becoming popular in western nations, and the increasing tolerance of fascism (even nazism) and anti-communism reaching dangerous levels.
