They're Boeing to die!

(Actually probably not, Space X, Russia, or China will have to send something up to rescue them, and I don't think Musk has a capsule ready for at least another 2 months.)

Always have a safe, never leave a gun unattended and unlocked for any reason. All guns are loaded, that gun you just visually checked the chamber of is especially loaded.

You cannot kill the metal. The metal will live on.

Yeah, he didn't fail, he did the only thing he could think of. We failed him, we should have given him a path to walk and comrades to share it.

More like Russia in the 1890s. Dude is speedrunning the conditions for a communist revolution to the point im beginning to suspect he's a left accelerationist.

Love how you can look at Sumerian texts and Neolithic proto writing and its all "Yep, Lebanon, the place with the really good trees!"

Gonna have to start calling him Tsarbomberguy.

If we're still here after the commune and the USSR's collapse we're not going anywhere.

People forget the first 300 years of Capitalism was also crushing defeat vs the Fuedalists.

I think a lot of lanyard types don't understand that Putin is actually very funny and is constantly dropping these jokes, as jokes. They just take it as dead seriously as the Soviets supposedly took the "We launch in 10 min" comment by Regan.

Uh, to clarify you do not "have to hand it to him" etc

So...if Ukraine wins or collapses or it just devolves into a forever war, there's going to be a lot more Nazis in eastern Europe and a surge in reaction. Ukraine, if it survives, will be a fascist state once Zelensky looses the unifying pressure of war. If it doesn't Europe will be flooded with ukranian irredentist groups and Polish Gallacia will be essentially fascist.

To preserve NATO, these reactionaries will need to be accomodated, much as Turkey is. Sobthe public must be primed.

The EU has already had to make accommodations with Polish Fascists. And the only reason the Hungarians haven't been rehabilitated is that they're sticking with a pro Russia strategy. The one silver lining is that all these Nationalists hate each other and have trouble coordinating without a dominant party forcing them.

This is the harsh lesson we learned before TC69 thought was implemented.
