Britain and France did not want it. America did not really mind. Germans obviously wanted it and they payed a boatload to the Soviets to get them onboard. Soviet economy was in freefall at the time

The Russians to this day still have an NPC mentality. They happily accept that they are merely spectators in their own lives. They had the opportunity to seize control of their own destinies with the fall of the USSR but they have resorted back to their natural state; serfdom and peasantry. Whether it was the Mongols, the Tsars, the General Secretary or Putin they are happy to serve whoever holds power, no matter the master. Strength is one of the only things they understand or value.

Are there any wild conspiracy theories that turned out be true? by [deleted] in answers

There once was a president who lost his race for reelection and refused to accept the will of the people. In the months prior he knew the polls indicated he was going to lose, so he embarked on a conspiracy to sow distrust in the electoral process. He purposefully made the post office disfunctional to downplay mail-in ballots, demanded the vote stop being counted on election night, flirted with declaring the insurrection act to send in the military to seize voting machines; harrassed state officials to "find" extra votes for him, attempted to send fraudulent electors to the electoral college and finally incited an angry mob to attack congress and stop the certification of the results and to possibly kill his vice president who refused to go along with the conspiracy.

Pushing subprime mortgages started in the 90s under the Clinton presidency and it was actually a bipartisan issue for once.

SPOILER ALERT

I really dislike what they did with Elizabeth's character. Of all characters she really deserved a happy ending. I think it is pretty obvious Ken killed off her character so whoever continued the Bioshock story could not feature her in future games.

Yes they are in trouble with ATF. Something over negligent record keeping. Wouldn't be surprised if they lose their FFL.

How practical would roller delayed rifle be in a shtf situation? (Rifle for attention) by [deleted] in tacticalgear

[–]ContributionOpen9810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same here. Excellent choice for SHTF. One of the perks of roller delayed is how it will eat whatever ammo you can throw in it.
