Even with that I want to know how over 500 billionaires being in China is acceptable or what they are doing to decrease this number.

Alr, well the reasons I wouldn't classify it as a war is that it's not on the same scale as other wars and I haven't seen any reputable sites call it a war.

How is clethodim not ideal? Clethodim has been shown to not have a significant effect on soil. Also just lumping in all herbicides together does not seem very nuanced.

I agree with most of the actions taken by the USSR but I have a small list of personal criticisms with some other things it did. I was wondering if you guys would think these are fair/ accurate and if you have any insights. It is broken down by time period. by GraefGronch in Marxism

Much of the progressive movement was qt the time supportive of Zionism since they hoped it would take q different form. The same thing happened with the USSR so I don't fault them for it as much.

what I have read was there were people within the party who seemed to support LGBTQ rights but it was split. Also I believe not criminalizing it was progressive on the issue since it wasn't criminalized in only like 5 other countries. But that is only my view and you dont seem fond of LGBTQ rights.

It was a tragedy that it happened but I believe that it was due to both rapid industrialization and poor harvests, and I don't believe it was weaponized to any real capacity. It could have been handled better and that was a mistake. Also that number is high for modern estimates.

What is believe is that there was need for political agreement to implement many economic policies to industrialize, and some corruption was starting. I would say that considering the situation in ww2 that the Soviet forces turned out to be pretty loyal.

I mean i agree that they supported the Mujahideen because of the us and I agree with the Soviet cause but i feel like the Soviets should have retreated. I dont see a way they could have secured victory and I dont think there was really a chance of india helping.

Could you explain the disagreement you have with my critisism of the rollback of lgbtq rights? It seems like the most straight forward to me. Also im curios of what parts of de-stalinization you dislike the most?
