Yakovlev taking over the glasnost media and immediately putting anti-communists in every position of power is a big reason why we don’t have the USSR anymore, IMO. Just to further your point about Zdhanov.

We’re also seeing that either the Chinese government has less control over its own banks than we previously thought, or they believe that the economic benefits of trading with Western countries still far outweigh a closer relationship with Russia (a very tiny economy compared to the collective West), indicative of their inability to wean off an export-oriented economy.
My hunch is that it’s the later. It tracks with all the other moves China has made in recent years, where trade with the west is prized over potentially harming that trade with “hostile” moves like de-dollarization.
He’s right that the Americans wanted to genocide the indigenous people west of the Appalachians and take their land, and that was a big reason why they declared independence because the British wouldn’t let them.
He’s wrong that the British were restricting expansion out of morals and preserving the land for the indigenous peoples. It was just for the British, that maintaining a military presence in the Ohio Valley was much more expensive than the economic benefits they would get. If the numbers worked out a little differently they would have been just as eager to genocide as the Americans.
Just that part about violating “community guidelines”, because YouTube can’t say the real reason IMO.
The Electronic Intifada just received a 7 day ban for violating YouTube’s “community guidelines”. They were not able to do their weekly livestream today.
I just started watching his stream recently. I had no real opinion on him or his fans, but I have no idea what you are talking about. He is not voting for Kamala and from what I can see in his chat neither are at least 95% of his fans.
He had his moments.
We will meet next week with the purpose of making an agreement on a creature in Gaza
Is this perhaps a translation issue?
Harris, Trump, Biden, W, and honestly even Hillary and Obama would never get beyond local town administration in China. They’re all too incompetent.
I decided on whim to watch Iranian TV for a few minutes. I found a station IRINN and they were highlighting some drawings regarding Gaza. I missed screenshotting some of the better ones (because it’s live and I can’t go back) but I did manage to get this one, I quite like it:
I’m not sure, it’s fairly common knowledge nowadays (my teacher in HS covered it). Real estate speculation in lands not yet fully ethnically cleansed was a massive source of wealth for many of the founding fathers.
