Ok so, assuming the Russian army is the laughing stock of the world, then why isn’t the Ukrainian Army an even bigger laughing stock?
For a long time I heard one thing after another about how incompetent the Russian army is. For 1 and a half years, the most incompetent, laughing stock of the world, army has been… losing?
My reaction to your comment.
It really is. At some point I memorized the entire song, too bad I don’t speak Russian, so I’m probably absolutely butchering it every time I try to sing it.
Wikipedia says it’s the other way around. That the MRLSs got their nickname from the song.
They could. Article 17 of the 1936 Constitution (can be found on https://marxists.org > English > History > Soviet Union > Soviet Government) explicitly allowed every Republic to secede from the U.S.S.R.
I’ve been thinking every time I see stuff like this, the U.S. army couldn’t deal with Afghanistan, and I guess that even goes back to Vietnam. (Though, the Red Army couldn’t deal with Afghanistan either, so I guess it’s more that regular armies can’t deal with protracted? guerilla warfare? too well? IDK). But also, any country that can deal with the blow from the first wave (i.e. everything they have at the start of the war, when they are fully stocked up) can probably just outproduce them?
The US army only really works on the traditional armies of over-exploited countries I guess.

Here is a not so nice thought: These people are not (necessarily) refugees.
I mean that, as defined by the 1967 protocol1 (which is mostly just the 1951 conventions2 definition, but without the time limitation). Therefore the right to non-refoulment (i.e. not returning a person to their prior country) does not apply to them. The EU has a lesser definition "subsidiary
protection"3 which these people do might[?] qualify for (as it includes war “serious and individual threat to a civilian’s life or person by reason of indiscriminate violence in situations of international or internal armed conflict”), but as far as I can read, the directive does not define any rights for these people. So the exact things a person under subsidiary protection is afforded is up to the individual country. I am probably missing some “laws”, but otherwise there is, legally as far as these “laws” go, nothing wrong, with‒e.g.‒Germany (assuming German law doesn’t define non-refoulment for S.P.) returning Ukrainians to Ukraine.

Definition as modified by the 1967 protocol:
owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country ; or who, not having a nationality and being outside the country of his former habitual residence, is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to return to it
Are they biased in some way
Yes. All news/media sources are biased. There is no such thing as unbiased news.
Only socialism. Anything else isn’t.
Ah yes, cuz Wikipedia is the holy grail of information. No, don’t read stuff by yourself, don’t pick up a book, just use wikipedia.
Damn, you’re proving why we have this emoji

You: I wish [“tankies”, or whatever else you want to call us] stopped worshiping dictators.
Genie: Granted
You: Nothing changed.
Genie: Correct.

I understand that you can’t understand our comments. I mean, if you did, you’d realise we don’t worship anyone.
But… damn, you can’t even read the image in the post.
Ok. I mean, I’m not going to do it IRL, since I have them on my tablet, but I’ll go read Blackshirts and Reds, Triumph of Evil, the Book of the Hopi, The Cold War and Its Origins, The Hidden History of the Korean War. I’ll also recommend you read them.
Edit: How could I forget Killing Hope?!

They don’t. I don’t know where you get your news but you should look for another source.
OP said Eastern Europe. Probably, Hungary, Romania, Poland, etc.
Probably. But it was meant as “Marx at least had praise for the Paris commune” and “Lenin, whatever his issues with”…
The mango press article was available up until at least June of this year. It was retrieved last year. This shouldn’t be news to you. You clearly show knowledge of archive.org by using it, so I don’t understand why you have to point that out, when you can check if it was available and now isn’t?
The CBS news article is a recounting of one person telling their story of Tianamen. It links, for whatever reason, to another different persons telling of their story.
