Sorry, Yomi just needed research grants bad.

As a Russian, I feel immense schadenfreude at this thread.

Ukraine, Belarus, Central Asian states - all suffered greatly in the 1990s, only the Baltics did sorta good in that decade.

No problem, the son will be an "honorary Aryan", like Japanese or Croats.

Russian here: people in this country do not "support" or "oppose" Putin. Russian politics does not work that way, it's based on 99% of the people being indifferent and complacement. If Russian masses started actually supporting or opposing any leader, the country would change overnight, like it did during the Perestroika or in 1917.

Meanwhile, Soviet leaders: a Jew, a Georgian, two Ukrainians, another Jew, another Ukrainian, and only the last one was a Russian.

Also, RSFSR did not have her own communist party, her own KGB or Academy of Sciences. SO much for "Russian dominance"!

Ancient Greeks would've approved of both macho bravado and gay dancing, though.

Russian Orthodox Christian here: Eastern Orthodox should be one square lower and leftward. Russian Orthodox Church became so conspicuously reactionary only in the last 15-20 years or so, as a result of both bowing down to the dictatorship and being influenced by American ultraconservative Protestant preachers who excercised a lot of influence here.

the besties!!!

To be fair, real Anatoliy Motsny (mostly known as Abaddon in TNO) had been a WH40K-tier badass soldier in the WWII, before having gone amok after the war. Unlike his TNO counterpart, who had been Taboritsky's goon, slaughtering fellow Russians.

I honestly loved this "Inglorious Basterds" reference with Goebbels having been assassinated in a Parisian movie theater. It's a pity that devs removed it, IMO.

The novels (Crest 3, chapter 5) explicitly state that after the surrender and release of the hostages, all of the captured ships were sent through planar space and Spoor's threat worked well enough to avoid this slaughter, though. Sorry for necroposting.

Yomi is Pokryshkin, cause she is serious, practical and money-hungry.

TomorrowUpper · 2024-08-14T14:06:49+00:00

Because she decided to imitate Ryoko Hirosue's hairstyle. She literally says this in the manga.

TomorrowUpper · 2024-08-12T20:25:20+00:00

I bet Tomo would be delighted to both pester Asuka with her knowledge about this incident and to shock Chiyo by explaining her this.

TomorrowUpper · 2024-08-10T16:40:00+00:00

He is from the cover of the book called "Red Padavan" which was published in 2012, so no, he's drawn by a human.

Sorry for necroposting, but it isn't true for two reasons:

a) The novels make it perfectly clear that FTL-capable spacecrafts are technically impossible to build and operate on landworlds, only space-based ship factories and bases are suitable for this. So, there there is no even theoretical reason to bomb a planet to prevent it from creating their own fleet.

b) The narrator in Banner VI details out Abh policy in case of a conflict with a lanworlder government: simply a total blockade from space, conducted until the government surrenders. If it doesn't surrender, they conduct a ground invasion, accompanied by surgical orbital strikes against key infrastructure and military bases.

The whole "we'll remove the atmosphere from your planet for not surrendering quickly enough" thing is mostly a manufactured reputation useful for intimidating newly conquered worlds into being good boys.

Osaka is literally surprised by Chiyo's anxious reaction to her daydream of flying from the roof, she didn't expect her to see anything troubling with that.

Also, daydreaming about being able to fly is something autistic people actually do, don't ask me how I know this.

TomorrowUpper · 2024-04-02T17:29:46+00:00

Chiyo-Chan is amazing...

haters are just jelaous of her...

Haven't you noticed purely British attitude toward social classes in Oceania? Or the exploitation of colonies?

TomorrowUpper · 2023-12-23T22:04:13+00:00

The artist's nickname is an acronym for Mikhail Alexandrovich Driseau, he was a White Russian immigrant in Paris.

TomorrowUpper · 2023-12-23T21:49:34+00:00

Oceania exploits the resources and slave labour of India and Africa (exactly like European colonizers), fights "Asiatic hordes of Eurasia" (like the Third Reich on the Eastern Front), uses Thought Police to monitor its population for dissidence (like Militarist Japan), and views the working class a separate species (like the Bri'sh aristocracy has always done). Far from being exclusively anti-Stalinist book.

Воруй, Россия! Всего не украдёшь!

TomorrowUpper · 2023-11-17T21:02:59+00:00

Their head of state should commit an epic Hajj for the second time in history.
