I do not want to be that leftist who keeps saying things are not "real socialism."
I disagree with Assad on a lot of things, but Syria should have self determinism.
Syria is the last multicultural country left in the Middle East
I heard that Rojava and Assad considered a pact to work together.
After a certain religion caused havoc
That would be incredible. They need it to oppose Turkey.
Aren't the Kurds Turkish?
And rojava supports the Kurds
Kurds are not Turkic. They are some other ethnic group entirely.
And Turkey hates the Kurds to no end.
They are an Iranian Ethnic group.
I used to be better at anthropology, I had to google that lol
But yeah, a stance against Turkey with an Assad/Rojava pact I feel would be best for both sides.
Both sides being Syria and Rojava, not Turkey. Fuck Turkey.
Greece should get constanipole
Would probably boost their economy due to tourism
Which they desperately need
At this point, I don't know if anything would really help Greece.
I agree it would boost their economy, but their problems are numerous and a lot would need to be done to help them.
Well, okay the second problem should be dealt with y those far-righters getting punched in the face.
Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greek republics: Freedom for slave owners.
"The best way to destroy the capitalist system is to debauch the currency"
"The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation."
Both from Lenin
Lenin was a cool dude.
Who actually successfully pulled off the biggest revolution of 20th century
Remember how the USA got a shit tonne of Ukrainian fascists
Yup and I am well aware that the famine that took place in Holodomor was
A) Not a man made famine on the part of the Soviets and
B) Does not have a death toll as high as people claim it is
The Famine was going to happen regardless of what system was in place at the time.
History Shows 'Yanukovych Was Right to Oppose EU Association Deal'
Remarkably, the roots of the "Holodomor" ("deliberate starvation") myth lie in the longstanding Cold War standoff between Soviet Russia and the West. After the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, infamous Nazi collaborators — members of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and their paramilitary UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army) units — fled into Western Europe and the United States, escaping punishment for their hideous crimes, including ruthless terror against peaceful Jewish, Ukrainian and Russian civilians.
In 1949 the CIA and the US State Department sponsored the OUN-UPA leaders' immigration to the United States, planning to use them as subversion groups and intelligence agents in the Cold War against Soviet Russia.
One of them, Mykola Lebed was characterized as "a well-known sadist and collaborator of the Germans" by the CIA, according to Swedish-American historian Dr. Per Anders Rudling in his book "The OUN, the UPA and the Holocaust: A Study in the Manufacturing of Historical Myths." However, this fact had not prevented the CIA from recruiting the former Nazi collaborator.
The great depression and all that.
I got a better one, remember when the USA funded Osama Bin Laden?
The Great Depression didn't affect ussr though
Only affected capitalist countries
However, Ukraine was going through a period of industrialisation
Industrialisation in that amount of time before World War Two is a ver tough process
"Mykola Lebed [who was responsible for the murder of Poles in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia] lived in Queens, New York, until the 1990s, totally supported by the CIA or State Department," the US expert in Soviet history Professor Grover Carr Furr of Montclair State University, narrated in an interview with Sputnik in May, 2015.
