  • It’s true but weak at the same time:

    • Have you read bible/quran and the other books in christianity/islam? No? Then you can’t criticize it!
    • Have you read at least some books about astrology?
    • Have you read books about flat Earth?
    • Have you read Mein Kampf?
    • … and so on

    It’s true that if you want to have a deep down discussion about Marxism, you need to read the book, there’s no way around it. But at the same time it’s unrealistic to expect that most people will read at least some books for every ideology to form an opinion

    I think the meme is attempting to disparage the “ungratefulness” of present day liberals in these FSU countries

    Yes, well this is basically Russian diplomacy propaganda 101 - “I did this and that for you and now you’re ungrateful”. Similar stuff abusing husband says to abused wife. Basically if russians helped you in any way in history, you’re supposed to be their vasal until the end of the universe, there’s no expiring date on that. It’s abusive and disgusting

    Exactly, I pointed it out because soviets often try to steal all the achievements of the country - same as in this meme, a horde of russians came and built for poor, dumb baltic people all the stuff. In reality, it’s much more complex and those constructions were built by local workers, local architects, etc. With russian money I guess but that begs the question - who should get credit for those buildings then?

    I don’t know what to respond to this. I vaguely know about Black lives matter/All lives matter situation (I’m not from US) and it looks like you’re implying I’m some racist, bigot, right wing asshole. All I can say is - I am not.

    And when I think about it, I hate that the right achieved that any discussion on this topic is immediately shut
