Equating Hitler and Stalin or Nazi Germany and the USSR is holocaust trivialization, according to Jewish holocaust scholars. Dovid Katz did a popular article on it that you can probably search.

OurToothbrush,

Socialism requires that the workers have democratic control over the means of production. Nordic countries are not socialist, the working class isn’t in control there.

OurToothbrush,

We couldn’t even get the population to wear masks during a global pandemic killing so many people that hospitals needed to bring in refrigerator trucks to store the bodies.

Meanwhile China managed to for years

You tell me the trusted source, and I’ll give you an article on China’s zero COVID woes.

Sure, find one connected to the communist party of Vietnam, Laos, or Cuba. China had issues with zero covid but the nonsense you’re sharing is sensationalist garbage.

OurToothbrush,

Comments like this make it seem like you only care about trans people as a cudgel to use against people

When you get a call from a middle-aged male coworker who had tried to coerce you (younger female) into letting him drop you off at home on a Saturday night: do you call back, text, email, or ignore?

Please read post for full context; any help or input is appreciated! I disclosed sensitive info to a close female coworker (let’s say Ann), who is best friends with the male coworker mentioned (Ned). I’m sure she told him, but then they both seemed to want me to still tell him directly. I did because I believe in doing the...

Apparently he was treating you like crap at work, so I’d guess that wasn’t his intent.

You’ve never been at the tender mercies of a man who thinks you’re hot and holds a position of power over you, have you?

OurToothbrush,

I dont think you’re qualified to give an opinion.

OurToothbrush,

Being less of a misogynist, having any experiences that involve antagonistic sexual harassment in a similar context, studying gender relations in an academic way?

OurToothbrush,

But at least AKs are a symbol of liberation movements. US military equipment, not so much.

OurToothbrush,

which we’ve seen so clearly the past decade just loves having fascist states in its ranks.

Wait are you being sarcastic here? Lmao

OurToothbrush,

Good friends are a better cure to loneliness than one person, no matter how cool they are

OurToothbrush,

You’re thinking Emmitt Til and that wasn’t because the white woman was afraid, it was because she was willing to go along with the white men.

OurToothbrush,

Yes a big ass bear is clearly more dangerous

If it is a black bear, which 99 percent of the time it would be, nah, the man is more dangerous. Black bears are scaredy cats.

OurToothbrush, (edited )

No, because humans hunt bears and bears will kill humans

OurToothbrush,

Large prey animals in general. I see a hippo im running

OurToothbrush,

I mean… on sight doesn’t mean they’re already chasing, the point is to avoid that

OurToothbrush,

Got your cart before the horse: the US controls Israel, the control Israeli lobbyists have over it is secondary to that.

OurToothbrush,

If the US truly controlled Israel, they could force them to comply with UN resolutions, force them to ban settlements or force them into a ceasefire.

Could, but why would they want to? They have a little buddy doing their dirty work for them.

OurToothbrush,

The oil, the real estate?

The one boycotted by 6 of the 15 territories?

That’s the one, where Russians had less interest in the USSR than the participating territories.

Or the ones that followed in each that led to them declaring independence which in turn led to the collapse of the soviet union?

Sure, and not the presidential coup. Get real.

The baltics were 3 of those boycotting territories and we had similar referendums for independence which, I’m pretty sure, all got over 70% support.

And the Baltics are doing so much better now.

I’m reminded of a story of Lithuania charging holocaust survivors for fighting as partisans against the nazis in WW2. It happened in 2009. They’ve gotten more fascist since. Wonder what itd be like if the USSR was never overthrown.

OurToothbrush, (edited )

Yes, slightly improved metrics sure compensate for the systemic nazi rehabilitation /s

And for the overall lowering of living conditions across the former USSR /s

OurToothbrush,

and that’s something you can objectively prove, lol.

Weren’t you literally just claiming that if Russia stayed in the war the nazis wouldn’t have happened?

Bwahahaha

The repeated Bolshevik genocides of Jewish people.

As someone who had jewish family which survived the holocaust, lol, wtf? The worst instance of antisemitism in the USSR was the doctor’s plot, which wasn’t a genocide.

I’ll not comment on your apparent belief that Nazism was some fated historical inevitability, which sure seems like something a Nazi would believe and not a Marxist.

Nazijacketing me for thinking that Russia staying in ww1 wouldn’t have stopped the rise of nazism? Wow.

OurToothbrush,

I do not believe so, no
