Which ones do you see most frequently?

Well they do seem on board with shooting corrupt politicians, so I guess theres a foothold there

Unpopular opinion but I think the acronym should be dropped entirely, its silly as it is. They should come up with some generalizing name of the alliance that would describe all of its members.

Theres not as much support for USSR or even socialism as you would like to believe. Of course people are not antagonizing it as much as western countries do, but you should also take into account that Russia uses Soviet imagery exclusively as an aesthetic selling point and does not attribute its successes to socialism but rather to the “spirit of the russian people”. Experiences of older people are often dismissed as “grass was greener in my youth” and young people are very much fed distilled anti-soviet propaganda. The great problem with bringing back socialism to Russia lies with general political apathy of the people, getting through it would require rapid and substantial changes of the living standarts, be it good or bad. Best hope lies with China influencing Russian state, otherwise I see no “stumbling into socialism” on Russia’s part without some great disaster to kick off radicalization.

I wonder when they will be required to wear armbands 🤔

I guess my wording wasnt the best, “widespread” would be more accurate

I think weed should be legalized in countries where its usage is a significant problem, but not in places where it did not have much presence to begin with. The problem with addictive substances is that once they take root they are extremely difficult to remove, especially if they have managed to become part of the culture, like in USSR, which put a lot of effort into decreasing alcohol consumption among the people, but only achieved meager results.

And anyone trying to stop the suffering is eeevil~. I seriously don’t know why they thought it would portray bolsheviks in a bad light.

Shouldn’t removing Jesus from his torture device be a good thing? I could never understand the logic behind worshipping the thing that killed and subjected their god to pain.

The biggest rift in Russia is caused by highly divided support for the war and for further mobilization. Majority of people stopped having positive outlook on the west and are in favour of self-sufficiency over Russia’s government seeking substitutions from other countries, which causes some displeasure. General opinion of Putin is about neutral-negative, there is not much respect for him but he is seen as necessary. Overall the government is perceived as incompetent/corrupt (even before the war) due to it not fulfilling promises and shitty budget allocation on anything that is not a big city, and there is a desire for a stronger leader against the west, which could either be good if the communists manage to exploit that after Putin leaves or extremely bad, because a lot of hardliners aim for that role. Currently Putin is in a fairly stable position since dislike of the western countries vastly overshadows dislike for Putin. I don’t see the cracks that would lead to him getting deposed yet (Its gonna have to be more than general dissatisfaction) so the best thing is to continue to observe how things play out.

You know, this thing would have been cool as an Indoors wall thingy in malls and such, since algae doesn’t need as much maintenance as houseplants and would produce more oxygen too. Placing the tank outside is a strange decision, it simply doesn’t match with the streets stylistically or functionally and will require regular repairs and cleaning from damages of the elements and filth that would accumulate at extreme speeds.
