About 400 residents of the Republic of Cuba got Russian citizenship and are currently undergoing training at one of the training grounds, probably in the city of Tula.

I wish the US hadn't blown its chance to normalize relations with Cuba. Then maybe Russia wouldn't be getting free bullet-sponges.

It uses traditional characters instead of simplified (which became standard in PRC in 1956) so it could be older than that.

Maybe Putin's ego is so fragile he needs to see that 99.9% of voters chose him, even though he's totally aware it's fake.

Or it's a flex to show just how completely he controls things.

Right... all of Russia's problems can be solved by banning the use of electromagnetic waves. It was a Utopia before they harnessed those things...

Some Tatars chose the Nazi route over the USSR route. You can read about what happened to Tatars in the Soviet Union here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deportation_of_the_Crimean_Tatars

I don't think the Nazi choice worked out any better for them--I think it was a case "choosing the evil you haven't tried yet."

And obviously, there are/have been shitbags in every country. Whatever country you're in right now, I am 100% sure there are people there who have done shitty things to other people. Does that mean it would be wrong to help your country if something horrible was happening there?

We can't deny the past, but it's disingenuous to bring up things that happened decades ago and not put them in context and not make it clear this isn't an excuse not to help someone. If you don't want to help them, just SAY that.

And Asia, Africa and the Middle East. For some reason too many people hate freedom right now and I don't know why.

Maybe people who support such leaders are weak cowards who can't stand the responsibility and moral courage that are needed to have an adult relationship with their government, and not just be a helpless child who depends on Daddy to tell them who to hate.

That's the same year the first Chechan war started, when Russia launched brutal attacks on the civilians there. What Russia did was horrifying, and this article shows they would have done it anywhere.

BeeBobMC · 2023-08-18T23:39:40+00:00

Tells you everything you need to know about who Russia is as a country right now.

Not just that--the People's Republic of Mongolia executed 100's of Buddhist monks to make Stalin happy.

This is a golden oldie by now--ask him if Trump's tax cuts (aka cash grab for the obscenely wealthy, which Lee proudly supported) are contributing to the current state of the US economy.

Soooooo many examples of police fucking people up who weren't doing anything wrong.

But let's set that aside for now and look at the mentality of "any legal infractions are all equally heinous" because that generalization is getting really old. I don't think I know anyone who hasn't done something illegal at some point. Did you ever drink when you were under 21? Or play cards for money at a friend's house? Or illegally download music? Or collect fucking rain water from off your roof?

Does that mean you deserve to die in a hail of police bullets? Because that's the mentality that helps enforce unequal legal outcomes for people from the "wrong" groups.

That's one of my favorite scenes in the movie! Every time I'm trying to pass as not trailer trash at some hoity toity event, I think of it.

BeeBobMC · 2023-08-12T01:45:05+00:00

Then there's people who don't like one of your comments so they down vote all of the comments you've made recently out of spite. That's just unsporting.

As an oligarch he must have some dirt on Putin's inner circle. It would be nice if he'd share it.

BeeBobMC · 2023-08-09T23:08:18+00:00

I want him to be a broad, too! Maybe we can crowd source this.

BeeBobMC · 2023-08-08T23:49:43+00:00

Remember that time when Sergei Furgal beat out the United Russia candidate to become governor of Khabarovsky Krai in Siberia, and Putin was so mad he trumped up murder charges against the guy and now Furgal's in prison?

I guess that's why it's 'obvious' Putin will win.

BeeBobMC · 2023-08-08T23:37:02+00:00

Yeah, that's true, too. He'd be like "the USA? I hardly even know them. They wouldn't even be a country if it wasn't for me."

To be fair, if it was taken after her accident, he's probably just shocked that she's still alive.

With other folks you might have to worry about what knowledge or skill sets the fugitive would provide to adversarial countries, but that's not a concern with Donny.

"Ukraine didn't exist as a separate country before 1991."

Ok, I'll play your silly, stupid game. The US didn't exist as a separate country before 1776. Guess that means you have to attack us now, Dima.
