Our polls have increased massively. Opinum has put us at 8% with a +5 increase since last month's report & other polls have put us either 7 or 8%
We're projected to match our best voting intention polls too
I mean, he has a fucking point
what?
we helped *them*
On the flipside, the USSR was sending huge quantities of minerals and foodstuffs to Germany right up to June 1941
There were trains still crossing the border heading Westwards on the night of the 22nd
Well becausr until that point russia and germany were allies ish.
But Russia wouldnt have been able to do half of what they did without US Supplies. And tbh because Stalin couldnt believe Hitler betrayed him and took months for him to counterattack, they became active in the war only a month prior than the US.
Well yeah, I was also going to mention the lend-lease, considering that was help the US and the UK provided *to* Russia and not the other way around
Stalin also knew war was coming; he just didn't want it to come in '41 - especially when he didn't expect Germany to romp over France like they did
Stalin liked Hitler. They had a lot in common. And Stalin also hoped hitler would keep to the treaty he signed. Since its the only such he signed.
When he invaded. It was reported Stalin called his intel peopls liars and that it could never be true.
So what you're saying is Stalin and Hitler were basically Zoidberg and Hermes.
I dont know futurama enough to agree or disagree with that reference.
The answer is yes.
not sure if this the right room https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC45L3ARnZA
John Cleese - In Conversation with Graham Johnson & John Ford - man the media in UK is in a bad state, some of you may have come across this already :S
and this Melanie Phillips: How the media manipulates truth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te01MtCJP0w
@tea-o The sound on the John Cleese video is pretty terrible, but it's very insightful
this one is a bit random but this channel has a lot of info regarding the eastern block of Europe and practical politics etc. Is from a conservative angle but shares a lot of common goals i.e. free speech. Might not be for all, but some interesting info eastern block , and political ideologies worth a look if interested - Protests as a means of demoralization (practical politics) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNeHqrZAMLY and also What is Duginism and why it matters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdkfEKOVaFc , Religion in Albania https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1vHu6cJCF4
Stalin didn't trust Hitler, let alone like him; German and Soviet forces were shooting at each other during the Polish invasion
Stalin simply wanted to stir the pot between the capitalist countries under the assumption that the ensuing war would bring about radical socialist uprisings, as it had done to Russia post-WWI. He just didn't count on Germany BTFOing countries like France so early into things
He also never expected germany to break the pact. He took the Germans at their word as he was willing to keep his.
^ Oh, the Roblox faggot is back
The state of the Democratic Party <:pepe_why:378719408367075333>
Question is: Will it be obvious to the layman that they're using patriotism as a rhetorical tactic to advance their agenda?
There was actually a poll done that shows millennials are starting to vote for the Republican Party, same goes for minorities. And I wouldn’t call what they’re doing patriotism.
Yeah, YOU wouldn't, but some idiot out there might think "oh, see? They love America. They're trying to save us from the Ruskies"
The democrats love America yet they allow illegals to come in and spend our money on the same people that cause this country to go to shit.
They don't "love" anything. They see their position as a tool to advance an ideology.
And Americans are starting to realize what they’re doing, that’s why they have to degenerate themselves by chanting lol
<:covfefe:440543908846632980>
but isnt chanting your countries name patriotic? And isnt being patriotic having national pride therefor a form of nationalism? The same thing that the democrats supporters seem to despise?
my, my...
<:thronk:441701565607444482>
Just imagine if republicans or Trump supporters did this? There would be mass outcry. How is chanting your countries name any different from MAGA? They're both boasting their countries name in a positive manner and being proud of it
Because it's obvious how much of a political tactic it is.
IIRC The Congressional Republicans have chanted USA against the Dems before, just this year possibly
