The mayor of Lvov has apparently had hundreds of Soviet war dead exhumed from the Hill of Glory, including an NKVD guerrilla, Nikolai Kuznetsov, who directed the assassination of numerous high level Nazi officials including 3 German generals, the vice-governor of Galicia and the Nazi appointed chief judge of Ukraine during WW2, before being killed in a firefight with Banderites in 1944.

He hopes to exchange them with the Russian government for Ukrainian soldiers' remains.

He posted about this to his telegram account.

Yeah that's why he begged the Western Allies to form an alliance prior to Molotov-Ribbentrop.

The Soviets and Nazis hated each other.

Personally the moment someone starts pouring gasoline on me, my instinct is that they will in fact "do it" and I'm gonna run for my life.

I know everyone is different and some people will make pretty morbid jokes and empty threats but I think that "while covered in flammable liquids" is not the time to escalate.

Nikita Khrushchev: “I am the son of coal miners. You are the descendant of feudal mandarins. We have nothing in common.”

Zhou Enlai: “Perhaps we do. We are both traitors to our class.”

I'd heard of this story and been horrified by it, but the fact that her mother is who found her is new information for me. Just absolutely awful, this poor girl. Heads should roll but this is America so I'm sure at most they'll settle out of court.

You're trying to get people to vote for the administration currently committing genocide.

You're going to bubble in Harris, not "not Trump," so say it with your whole chest you cowardly fascist.

You want people to vote for little girls like Hind Rajab to sit in cars with their dead parents and siblings in terror until bullets that you also voted for kill her.

You're voting for the systematicremoved of Palestinian hostages.

You're voting for young men to burn to death on their hospital beds.

You're voting for men to be buried alive in mass graves.

You're voting for schools and hospitals to be bombed.

You're voting for children to be deliberately starved to death.

You're voting for bulldozers to run over living men women and children.

You're voting for the genocide.

I don't care if you say it's for abortion rights.

You're campaigning for a candidate who has signaled full continued support for the genocide you disingenuous Nazi prick.

I heard somewhere, I wanna say that the idea that lotteries fund schools isn't even true.

Like, if property tax generated X dollars for local schools, and then a lottery was introduced that produced Y dollars, instead of schools now getting X+Y dollars, they still get X and you either give Y amount of dollars from the budget to something we don't want to say the lottery is funding, like police budgets or something, since the dollars are all fungible, or you reduce property taxes by Y dollars.

Meaning that generally, what it actually does, rather than providing a new revenue stream for your kid's school, is move the tax burden from the rich to the poor.

We have a complex and frankly fragile system of family members who care for one another's kids and maintain specific work schedules so that one grownup is always available in my family, that we built from scratch (not really from a cultural background where this is the norm, it's out of necessity) and it's frankly the only way my family has been able to support any children.

I'm genuinely not sure how a person pays for rent/mortgage, utilities, gas and food while also paying the kinds of prices that childcare costs in even low COL areas of the US.

Whenever you see "bipartisan" you know you're about to read some demonic shit.

Cannot wait to see how well this comment ages. All the Hexabear stuff is just comedy gold in the long run. Thank you for spending your life force creating it.

Can't imagine thinking commentary, wrong or right, about brutal trench warfare, could be comedy gold.
