You claim we are the heartless ones, and yet Steven Crowder’s heart is the one failing. How curious. :charlie-kirk:

The overwhelming majority of people don’t know that it is mainstream historical academic consensus today that the 32-33 famine, while certainly drastically exacerbated by government policy, was absolutely not a deliberate genocide.

Literally just read the preface to the revised edition of Davies and Wheatcroft’s The Years of Hunger and it will give you the gist. It pretty emphatically denounces the narrative that it was a genocide. The entire rest of the book is nerd shit on agricultural yields and Soviet government policy.

TBH it got down voted to 0.

Also from that thread:

Imagine thinking Stalin was a Marxist

Matt makes explicitly Marxist arguments that to the uninitiated libs are literally alien. This person certainly has no idea what fascism means or “the left” really wants, so they interpret materialist analysis that these CHUDs had no plan and thus could never have accomplished anything meaningful as “agreeing with fash”. This then gets spread around their lame Twitter circle like a game of telephone.

Again, what would the CHUDs have accomplished if they had simply occupied the Capitol for a prolonged period? The answer is nothing. Merely occupying one building will not magically force the entire apparatus of state to capitulate to your outlandish demands. The only way they could have actually done a coup is if the military then threw in with them, in which case you have much bigger problems than CHUDs in the capital; regardless, there was zero chance of this happening. Meanwhile these same libs were probably falling over themselves to exalt the generals who came out to condemn Trump the other day, zero cognitive dissonance involved.

She quite literally did stay on the Court until her last breath so the public could sit on their asses and let Republicans light reproductive rights on fire. Maybe not her intention but thats tangibly how it worked out.

He ran because he knew he was a dead man if he didn’t get away.

The parts I watched at least, that’s what I instantly understood. They stopped him and pulled him out of a car at a major intersection, gave him contradictory instructions and beat him over objections, so he bolted as soon as he got free. They pursued in cars and caught him at another more isolated residential intersection and tortured him to death. I don’t have the time or stomach I think to watch the entire sequence unabridged but that’s just what I took away.

This is related to how contagious it is, not how deadly it is

But everyone downplaying this shit as “mild” literally aren’t working with any usable data yet (because we’re only now getting hit by the Omicron surge, and the only usable data will come after some time of seeing its effects). These same “TRUST THE SCIENCE” fucks are literally being exactly as disingenuous as the conspiracy theorists they have such sneering contempt for, because it serves their political and partisan ends right now.

Absolutely fucking despicable. They’ve been consistently wrong in every single regard since Day fucking One. They’re wrong now too.

EDIT: I also strongly suspect the reason it’s being perceived as “milder” is because more VACCINATED people are getting it because it’s so contagious, but are obviously dying or being hospitalized at a lesser rate.
