Ah. You have absolutely no idea what Stalinism is and just like to use charged words. As often as "fascism" gets thrown around I feel like I'm justified. The only one throwing "fascism" around in this thread is you. If you believe the USA is anything like Stalinist Soviet Union I ha e a bridge to sell you.

Again, you're just trying to avoid addressing the issues I've brought up.

That's in the constitution of the Likud party.

I think it's a fair description and it's an indication of the type of person you are that the description matters and you have had nothing to say about the law. They still think Russia is Communist? It's closer to Christian Nationalist under Putin. When I say "Stalinist" I mean more along the lines of trampling human rights and tricking fake progressives into supporting it.

Of course you think it's a fair description, since you chose it because it's a charged word and not because you know what it means. And you can't defend the actions of your government so you're concentrating on attacking people who criticize it.

And you're blathering on about stuff I never even mentioned in order to deflect from the ignorance demonstrated by your word choices...lol

While that is bad, it isn't exactly full Stalinist, is it? Have we nationalized any industries? We have industrized government. WTF is that supposed to mean?

The American government is run by some sinister people. Getting people to recognize it and put aside other divisions is like pulling teeth. This thread is a textbook example of how they divert the conversation away from the point. Sadly I'm seeing a lot of Facebook memes on "Moscow Marge", I get why a leftist wouldn't generally care for MTG, but on the issue of blocking military spending for proxy wars, any real progressive should temporarily stand with her. Since we're talking about many people dying, any toxicity attached to her name is outweighed by the seriousness of the issue at hand.

They were right on Vietnam. They started to cave with Iraq. They realized their mistake in Iraq but it was too late. The U.S. had already destabilized the Middle East. Now they pretend Ukraine is some great war of liberation. It's just more Neo-Con bullshit.

I get the feeling that in by the end of the year a new Ukraine aid package will be the subject of a new debate in US congress and that the situation in Ukraine will have not changed much.
"Ukraine is winning: they need more money to finish the job."
"Ukraine is in a stalemate: they need more money to break it."
"Ukraine is losing: they need more money to they can turn things around."
Bottom line, no matter the situation: they need more money.

There was no nuclear power plant destroyed in Ukraine and only one was damaged and the only one that has been damaged is the one controlled by the Russians.
