Done?

Because it isn’t logical, because it is all a mess. Yet because Russia claims Soviet glory and tankies actively shows the current regime reverence as if Putin was a General Secretary, it is rather hard to actually make a distinction between the current authoritarian regime and the one of the Soviets - the fact of the matter is that Russian political culture whether royalist, communist or capitalist doesn’t change.

That’s enlightening indeed. Knowing the both of them are trash does explain many, many things about Reddit.

It’s very clear you’re mentally ill. Bye.

The only evil person here is you. How can you not only defend but celebrate a regime that during its reign of terror during the occupation of Poland put over 500-thousand Poles in prison, committed the Katyn Massacre, deported 1.7-million Poles to Siberia, raped over a 100-thousand women, and murdered over 150-thousand additonal Poles in cold blood, and then robbed Poland of the independence it had achieved after WW1, after 200-years of attempted cultural genocide by the Russian Empire?

I am half-Polish, my father was born in Communist Poland - tell me how your crackhead ideology justifies your abhorrent views. Tell me how the Soviets rounding up innocent Poles and murdering them in cold blood, like happened to the families and friends of my grandparents, is to be celebrated as the Soviets “saving” anyone; how subjugating the Polish people and state for the next 40-years was something good.

You’re simply a disgusting PoS, a certified A-grade fucking tankie.

Xiaomi sure as hell isn’t a “workers’ cooperative” - it’s literally a public stock company traded on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for crying out loud! And I don’t think anyone would doubt the fact Xiaomi’s engineers are paid well, well at least the ones that actually work for it and aren’t the employees of affiliate-startups that are part of the Mijia-ecosystem, but Xiaomi like everyone else, even Fairphone, uses the unethically-treated and underpaid Chinese factory-worker labour-pool exactly like everyone else - as disposible cogs in a well-oiled tat-producing machine.

…it would great if the tankies could understand that fact to be case in any other context when discussing Russia, but they don’t, so we won’t.

the modern russian state is not the soviet union, it is who america put in charge after creating a situation that led to millions of deaths.

The fact that you can believe this narrative literally spawned by the people who currently control and siphon away 50% or more of Russia’s entire GDP into foreign bank accounts under the whip of Vladimir “East German KGB-operative” Putin is pretty astounding.

We can very obviously see how anti-communist revolution in Hungary is going for Hungarian trans people right now.

To blame “anti-communist revolution” for the decline of LGBT-rights in hungary when much of the anti-LGBT legislation came about near 20-years after Hungary became a democracy and during when the Hungarian Socialist Party, the successor of the Communist Party, was still the largest force in Hungarian politics is disingenuous.

I would like to point out that the word tankie was used to refer to people that specifically supported the Hungarian communists request for military aid against revolution in Hungary. (…) So in the original sense of the word, I am a tankie.

…it’s nice that you’re honest about being anti-democratic and that you have no qualms about calling yourself tankie in that context. Are you a “little green man” as well?

This, but unironically. That man lost it and became a monster.

It’s by Playground Games; Lionhead Studios was shuttered half a decade ago.

Bugs? No sir, here at Bethesda those are called “features” or, as we like to say, “Modder’s Delight”.

…if they’ve been up there for two years what reason does he have for keeping them? It says he’s a contractor and yet…the fact that he’s not going to pay for a parking spot or garage but instead to park them up in the mountains, why?

I deleted mine nearly directly on the spot when the news about shutting out 3rd-party apps hit the net. No big deal.

One great thing about about software is you don’t have to agree with or care about what the creators thoughts and beliefs are, software is at the end of the day just software.

It really isn’t though - no-one dared touch ReiserFS after the creator became a wife-murderer even though it, supposedly at the time, it was quite the piece of advanced code.

8.1 was better than 7 in every way though?
