Like the kind that made you stop and think for a second about how stupid the person advocating it is. For me, it’s the classic “The biggest mistake in recent history was the Allies not pushing into Russia after the fall of Berlin.”

There’s just a level of imperialist arrogance and blood thirst in there that makes my skin crawl. The worst thing in human history was that the US didn’t immediately betray the Soviets and wipe them out until they were sure communism was done for.

    Someone I know went to India recently and was telling me about their experience. First they said that they ‘flew over the SOVIET UNION to get there’, I guess they went back in time lol. They told me that India ‘modeled their government after the Soviet Union and Stalin’. That free market capitalism is now coming to ‘save the day for their poor backwards country’.

    I honestly don’t know what to say to people that are that delusional lol. People really do just be saying whatever comes out of their ass.

      What flights to India even go over Russia? Especially now? Unless they mean former Soviet republics in Asia?

        I’m not sure, I don’t think this person is on the same planet as the rest of us. Their favorite saying is ‘perception is reality’, which explains a lot lol. This person runs on nuclear grade idealism.
