You need to differentiate then and emphasise the different conclusions you make compared to the person you are discussing with.

In the late Soviet Union there were indeed standing lanes for products. This is true and I don't think this was good. I think a anticommunist would say the same, but my conclusion is not that the Soviet Union was bad or socialism itself leads to such things. Through further discussion I would explain it more and more.

Often enough their propaganda includes some truth, but is bastardised. When Hungary 1956 happened it was indeed a tragedy. It was not a pure product of CIA, the communist party there made clear mistakes which made people unhappy. But the situation was then also used by CIA (probably also other foreign agencies), which is meanwhile proven how they provided weapons, and this lead all to a lot of causalities. In my opinion this short explanation puts this historic event in a more correct light, then "people were unhappy and then soviet tanks invades and committed a massacre".

The same goes for all those other topics. The famine in Soviet Ukrainian and western part of Soviet Russia. It was awful, absolutely. We know that the were many causalities for that and the communist party made mistakes¹

Kronstadt also, anarchists are mentioning it often. Kronstadt was a tragedy, nothing good about that. But it was really necessary for taking it, otherwise the revolution would be in danger.

First you need of course enough knowledge about a certain topic and second then patiently explaining. If you try Lenin and read more from him, you will discover how much he explains and he repeats his self a lot. He was a great pedagogue.

From all what I wrote now, I provided more information, then a liberal would do about that topics and I am not talking like it was all a cool.

I don't know if this helps you somehow. What me helped in the past was reading Lenin. I guess every 3th comment I make here on Lemmygrad is something about how much reading him helps in theory and praxis. In the collected works there are also his speeches he gave to students. As long as you engage more and more in explaining, you will get better with that. And don't forget, admit mistakes that were made or are made, but emphasise that your critique comes from the left and doesn't align with the anticommunist propaganda.

¹I shouldn't write more about the famine in Ukraine. So far as I know, I can get into trouble with the German law, if I say in a public space, that my conclusion is not a anticommunist one (I know, I formulated it strange). They would probably find a way to get me doxxed.

But it is not yet clear at what cost.

Whoaaaaaaa. The "at what cost" line against Ukraine. I guess Ukraine is in a dire situation for real

Sorry to hear that. You are not the only one who had to learn it the hard way :/

[-] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago

Well... according to Zelesnkyi he "hopes" that this war ends 2025. This full plan is totally vague. Joining the NATO is actually not possible. "We need weapons" is something you hear everyday, nothing new. And the "We have resources" doesn't make it better, the full country is being selled to the west.

Important thing I need to add: He didn't only said, that Ukraine can offer a large amount of resources, but Ukraine can give Resources to the west. If Ukraine lose, those Resources will fall in the hands of Russia and China.

I don't see any plan how this should lead to Ukrainian victory.

C'mon ppl, why aren't you alle asking the most obvious question if it is about China? Remember, if it is about China, you have to ask at what cost?. It has the same importance as brushing your teeth every day. If you read something about China, imagine the "at what cost?" line after every sentence

“The main problem is the survival instinct of newcomers. Before, people could stand until the last moment to hold the position. Now, even when there is light shelling of firing positions, they are retreating,”

Who could expect this, people want to survive. Jesus, those soldiers are dragged into this war. You probably know of those videos how Ukrainian joung men are captured straight in a public are and forced to come with them, so they can register.

We are not talking about your usual right wing Ukrainian squad, but ordinary young people, who would rather flee then give their life for this war. Now blaming them for their survival instinct (!!!) is cynical.

Its just another cosplayer like the one before. Cosplaying is today a trend in the Ukranian forces

[-] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago

Fuck me. The comments. Enough are really saying that this is staged by "ruZZians" (What an irony!!), something about green screen, they find it funny or the Ukrainian soldiers are just making a little fun of a homeless dude.

For one thing I am absolute sure: "We didn't know of anything", which a lot of people said after 1945 in people is an absolute lie. If there were Internet and anything we have now back then, they would absolutely say the same.

I tell you if there were "only" racist, it would be one thing. But speaking German in a way how the Nazis did about Russians, that's an absolute different quality. It is a huge implication.

Well, thats something I really dont want. Hardware in my brain. How long till zero day exploits for your Hippocampus

If a person from Russia and person from the USA have a child and this child will spend till its 20s one year in freedomland and one year in putlerland, is this person then half evil and half good? Maybe that's a contradiction which is not allowed by physics and something bad happenes, like diving through zero.

but Im seeing syntax that Ive never seen in my life

Which languages do you know? What is your background?

What is wrong with "var test int"? There is no need for a return type, if the function returns nothing. Thats the language design and I think it is easy to remember.

func(u User) hi ()

u is something like self in Python and hi() is a method of User.

Please explain why do you think something is too messy, also with which languages you have already worked.

Francis Fukuyama, professor at Stanford and member of the "Stanford Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law", personally welcomed the neo-Nazis and opened the event. Which event you ask? This event:
