sound like you’re describing Ezio’s attire lol

still way cooler than whatever we have now

whatever floats your boat bro

but of course. I never said otherwise. it’s your words about it meaning “frontier” in russian is what i was debating, please read my comment again.

late XIX early XX military fashion is so cool actually, idk. And this costume in particular is better than a plain classic men’s wedding attire anyway. Like, women got all those different cool-looking wedding dresses, different forms, different shapes… And what men got? A plain effing classic suit, the same you’d wear to a business meeting. Yuck.

The word “Ukraine” itself doesn’t mean anything in russian nor ukrainian, it’s just a name for a state

write it in zalgo so they’d have an ass seizure :D

what did you teach them?

oh, it’s 100% some stupid ai bullshit

if it’s such an easy fix, why won’t we fix it first, so that more people would be able to join the anti-car movement? I never said whe should have x or y tho. Just that we should have x before having y.

how about you explain to me than? What a certain term means is a matter of agreement rather than discussion. The same word could have different meanings in different contexts after all.

I’m rather more curious about your thoughts on my USSR = state-wide corporation take tho.

let’s head back to my example:

how tf am i supposed to care about cars if i don’t have anywhere to live? A roof above your head is at the literal bottom of the Maslow pyramid, as it’s a basic need. People won’t care about anything unless those are satisfied.

So yes, homes are more important issue even if cars is your priority

exuse me le foque

“Jesus is a hologram”

was not something i expected to hear

everybody shit the floor

everybody shit the floor

everybody shit the floor

or just snort it up

while i certainly think there are far more cars distributed amongst people than needed, i don’t think they should go alltogether, as they still have their usecases (certainly not a personal everyday mode of transport tho). Housing problem, on the other hand, is more immediate:

if i go to a new city, i won’t give a single smallest flying fuck about cars, if i won’t be able to find myself a place to live.

So yeah, absolutely fuck the landlords and the real estate agencies.

i’m not talking about the overthrowing itself, but rather about what came after. Before leninists established their rule, there was a period of anarchy, just like there was in the 90s, not to mention that for people of a less internationalist view, USSR rule was just as tyrannical.

I am starting to suspect you see history not as dialectical process but as set snapshots.

you’d have to explain to me how my words you quoted made you think what you thought. The way USSR was at the end of it is a result of dialectical process.

What i said there is, while (after NEP) the banking system was nationalized and even small enterprises shut, enterprise is still an enterprise, even the nationalized one. USSR before perestroika is basically a country-wide corporation, and after perestroika it’s just a plain capitalist country, so i don’t see why you oppose ussr to capitalism, when saying that “capitalists came and forced ussr to crumble”. I know that soviet propagenda would claim otherwise, but capitalists were inside all along, they just had monopoly on everything, and were referred to as government.

Call me dumb or whatever for all i said, but i think that eversince people understood that money should circulate rather than be hoarded and kept, anything we do is inherently and unavoidably capitalistic, thus categorizing a subset of people as “capitalists” in opposition to other subset is inherently wrong.

i fail to see the connection. Literally the same kind of chaos occured when the revolution happened in 1917. Not to mention, that for capitalism to be “introduced” it should be foreign in the first place. USSR, especially late one was quite capitalistic itself, albeit with it’s own uniquie flavor.

bro, the 90s of the post-ussr region was literally ruled by gangs and otherwise criminal mob. It had nothing to do with any doctrine, as the politicians didn’t matter much.

And yes, i wholeheartedly agree, we can’t compare any two countries from two different times, even if they occupied the same territory, as we’d inherrently ignore lots of historical context that way.

so its more of a fucklandlords and fuckthehousingbubble than fuckcars really, if we look at it close enough

do you perhaps know the specifics of the “socialism” fall in now-post-ussr region? Because it was more of introduction of total anarchy and rule of the strongest than it was the introduction of capitalism.

Of course USSR was better than the crysis which consequences we’re suffering to these days.

sorry, it’s not really related to the discussion you had with the lad, i’m just in a rambling mood ig :D
