This is consensus among even the most conservative of historians, economists, and political scientists I’ve known. On the other hand, I’ve come across quite a few leftists here who disagree. When I lived in Russia the other kids would say it was only the oldest people who had anything good to say about the old system, and everyone else remembered mostly brutality, poverty, and fear.

Now look here! I was invited to speak with the very real, very human patrons of this fine establishment, and I’ll not have you undermining my efforts to fulfill that obligation!
Took me long enough. Thought it was like the fancy pooh bear meme or something.
Glasses can’t be that bad though right? This looks more like a scope.
Edit: oh shit, I still didn’t get it
But it is absolutely the kind of mistake they would make.
Hello, this is John Cleese. If you doubt that this is the real John Cleese, here is my mother to confirm that I am, in fact, me. Mother! Am I me?
Oh yes!
There you have it. I am me.
It adds cheek. Sans’ use was revived to alter one’s tone to sound stuffier. A visual equivalent might be putting on a top-hat and monocle.
They have a simplistic tit-for-tat moral code and ignore the relative degree of contempt telegraphed by different ethnic slurs. Trouble seems to find this sort of person wherever they are. They will not accept your advice. Best to move on.
I mean, inappropriate comments are ever-present when this politician has the spotlight, from the very beginning of her career. On first read I thought this was just another, and someone’s opinion re: AOC tells you a lot about them as a person. The mass downvotes on comments in this thread are a clue, for example. Some people have a curiously strong urge to put her in “her place.”
She’s always been such an action hero. Even now as the conservatives are emboldened. Tell me who’s gonna lead the god damn revolution.
Still get to deal with most of the same shit, but the repressed perma-denial TV-marriage version, through the entirety of their developing years, and then never get the chance to see what an authentic healthy relationship looks like? Sign me up!
If hollywood can waltz in and force us to stop using the name of a discipline, I think we may need to scrap this sim and start from scratch.
While I haven’t always lived among Americans, I’ve known many of them from many places, and I think this assessment is inaccurate. The ones you see the most online, especially on social media, are really not a representative sample.
Most Americans aren’t terminally online automatons, and although corporations and their own government have worked together to brainwash them into complacency, the gestalt of their culture and value systems still elevate the spirit of rebellion. I suspect that, by the end, you will see America become one of the noisiest fronts in the global war against these tyrannical elites.
