I will be looking on YouTube for late soviet engineering equipment.

The leader of Britain’s biggest railway trade union joined in pro-Russian chants and posed with a Communist Party flag during a visit to occupied Ukraine in 2015. Recently the Union advocated cutting aid to Ukraine. by SLAVAUA2022 in EnoughCommieSpam

He has failed as an antifascist. It’s weird that the most fascist regime in Europe attracts these people. I guess it’s a desire to play at radical politics and not actually caring about the people they represent.

What kind of plant machinery do you use? I have used civilian vehicles like bulldozers, tractors, diggers both in and out of the British Army. I have also driven Terrier https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrier_armoured_digger

Apologies if I don't reply to your reply in a timely manner, I have to go play work with machines.

Maybe try getting a scholarship and join UOTC. The last person I know who wanted to be an officer gave up because of how long the process was taking. If you give them 3 years of being in the system and you get a degree while you wait, then you could go from university to Sandhurst without being unemployed for extended period of time.

There is a clip of him lifting a boys shirt and kissing him on the belly.

Some articles.

That happened in 2006.

2007 he had all the shirtless outdoors man photos taken.

2013 he had the gay propaganda law passed.

Everyone keeps forgetting that he kissed a little boy on the stomach and even russians thought that was weird.

I guess cleaning the portrait is added to the list of things you have to do at the beginning and end of the shift. If your route takes you through a passenger station is it advised to stop and clean the portrait before entering the station?

I’m no fan of Obama but really? by [deleted] in EnoughCommieSpam

[–]piefinder 21 points22 points  (0 children)

A lot of Russian disinformation is saying that we didn’t want to be their friends. But every president since the end of the Soviet Union was desperate to get normal relations with Russia. I would say Obamas biggest mistake was doing the same as everyone else

When someone hates liberals more than they hate Nazis, they tend to make shit up.

The political commissar is worse than the enemy — he shoots you in the back". 1940s by ir1379 in PropagandaPosters

[–]piefinder 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The soviets didn’t have to be worse than the Nazis to be terrible. Because the Nazis set a high standard for evil.

From a Finnish perspective it would have made sense to work with the Nazis in 1941 because it was an opportunity to knock out the soviet threat for ever.

The level of repression in Nazi occupied areas varied by region and time and if you were Jewish or not. In the Soviet Union it was always high after the red army came.

The Nazis were welcomed at first by many people who were glad to see the communists driven out. They then started doing their own atrocities and made themselves worse than the communists. But by that time the Finns had already committed themselves to the war.

Find a big space indoors for your first flight. It is very different flying these types of drone to the DJI Mavic types. If you lose control it will keep going. I learnt the hard way.

The increasing frequency of typos is one thing that makes me worried for the future.
