Explain it to me like I'm five, Jovan. Just say it straight so there's no room for misinterpretation.
Here; I'll go first: Stalin was NOT just the lesser of two evils, and the Russians weren't/aren't an oppressed people who needed rescuing, from Stalin or the German Nazis or even Putin.
I think we're going to have a hard time analyzing whether the Russian approach of lack of regret for your historical past or the Western approach of apologies, reparations, and restitution for the people and ideologies you defeated last century leads to stronger societies and more Patriotism, if we cannot agree on a common definition for those terms. It seems like your definition of a strong society is more cosmopolitan and fits quite nicely with the West's, and so it drives you crazy that I would propose that people are NOT outraged over Russia's past, and would even choose a Putin over a tolerant man such as Navalny.
If your definition of "Russian attitude" is that of the cosmopolitan comads who attend these Navalny protests, then yes, I am misunderstanding what Patriotic Russians want.
But anyways man, please just cut to the chase: regardless of how many citizens (dis)agree with it, does limiting criticism of and restitution for your country's past create stronger or weaker societies, and more or less patriotic youth?
Why the hell would it drive me crazy? This is exactly what I said, Russians are largely pro Stalin and pro USSR, as are most of the people in the former Eastern Bloc. You are all into patriotism, which I am trying to tell you does not play the major role you think it does. Patriotism in Russia means "it is probably smarter to stick to our own guys, because the white people clearly want to kill us all off", not this cultural and historical thing you are into. But whatever man, if you are jumping to the conclusion that I am a Navalny supporter, we probably have very little to talk about and we are just poisoning the thread. So ok, Russians are patriotic, America is falling apart because of a lack of patriotism or whatever. We can move on.
I agree with Ed Dowd from the interview that Gilead posted:
-They need a reason to implement mail-in voting again before the US elections
-They need a distraction from the economic collapse
-They need further reason to tighten/globalize government control
Monkey Pox (although it will probably not be dangerous for the vast majority of people) will help them accomplish all of these goals.
They already have treatments lined up from a company owned by one of Epstein's close associates.
The presentation of Monkey Pox can look similar to conditions like herpes or bullous pemphigoid, the occurrence of which has increased since mass covid vaccinations were implemented. PCR tests can confirm these unrelated conditions to be Monkey Pox.

You two might be making the same points in different ways.
The way the Chinse currently view Mao is this:
70% of what he did was good and 30% bad.
He must be revered as a national hero, even by descendants of those he murdered.
Patriotism is pragmatic from a geopolitical standpoint.

These fucking lunatics are trying to get us all killed.
I completely agree, Yngvi. That’s why I was careful with my wording.
It is quite interesting that the US has (at my last check) less than 5 current MP cases. Maybe that’s changed, I didn’t look before posting.
In 2003 there were ~70 MP cases. But that was back when “cases” meant what it is supposed to mean. Amazingly, humanity survived.
Just wait until we have a MP PCR test.
I guess they think that if we're in a 3-theatre war in November, the Democrats get to stay in the House and Senate.
They know what most people will do, since the demonstration worked so well. Now, how do we fight monkey pox and a 3-theatre war at the same time? I know we have lots and lots of money, and there's never been more gas and oil available to make airplanes and trucks and tanks go, even for these geniuses this is going to be quite a trick. Mark Milley has this figured out, I guess. But it sure seems as though we could use all that shit we left in Afghanistan right now.
Man when I first read this I kinda chuckled. Then I realized you were dead on.
Has there ever really been a time when the US has been in such a precarious position? Ineptitude is the standard now.
And don’t get me wrong, when the jig is up, I have faith in our war fighters.
