The "we wish they built up their competitive industry" line is especially insane when you consider how much this country freaked out over Japan's economic development in the 1980s. Americans talked about the prospect of a war with a country that they forced to disarm and remain pacifist, a country that they were (and are!) _in the midst of militarily occupying_.

[@jcdenton810]

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. The unwritten rules America operates by say that your only real option is to make your country a permanent strip mine to satisfy Western demand, or else. And yet America can buy, exploit, and invade whomever it or it's allies please.

I like that Michael Chriton(sp?) movie/book about early weaboo culture.

“We did all of these great things to prevent this, but then.... Hasan Piker went live.”

[@rishishard4742]

For sure, Russia really "recovered" from communism if "recovery" means a huge fall in standard of living, deaths due to austerity and life expectancy falling.

[@Psteinz]

Damn. Look how busted slick Willy looks today in comparison to the thumbnail.

Viktor Orban was a nobody after the collapse. The leader of a fringe party who really liked the color orange because he watched A Tanu too many times

[@brokentower3148]

He put Russia on this path!

HA

[@5508Vanderdekken]

is this what the kids call 'gaslighting'?

[@Bisquick]

I think it's liquefied natural petrolighting, technically.

[@TheMoistestNugget]

Russia did have a fairly innovative tech sector toward the beginning of de socialization, guess which government helped fuck that up?

That's not how you pronounce "nuclear"

[@octobrain23232]

I wonder if Felix is actually funny. I can't tell, as Will is crushing on him so hard that he laughs hysterically at everything he says.

[@preago]

He's mostly funny and very quick even though Will & Matt tend to go overboard with the laugh track which encourages him to extend stupid bits to the point they become insufferable. His quick hitters are usually the best lines of the show

[@charlesc-r2926]

@@preago The ideal ratio is 40% Matt, 40% Will, and 20% Felix

god, felix is so unfunny

Eastern Europe's economic growth over the past 30 years makes leftists cry.

[@JulianPerez-zv6os]

Yep, that's Russia for you...real success story for your foreign policy.

[@howilearned2stopworrying508]

so they should have no problem defending themselves by paying more into NATO and buying arms from US with no troop commitments.

[@justcommenting4981]

Do banana republics make right wingers laugh? Probably. The genius of just using slavery in other countries to fuel growth. Very big brain.

[@oolacilesbotnet6564]

Most former Soviet States want the Soviet Union back. The fall of the Soviet Union caused a precipitous decline in living standards throughout the region. Not everyone can be Latvia.

[@thiswasamistake7306]

It really does. It's tragic to see how badly standards of living have imploded after the socialist societies were destroyed.

[@andyk6792]

why do people think these guys are better than greg gutfeld

[@Trapashow]

Literally everyone is funnier than Greg Gutfeld

[@hh-en5rt]

what reality do you live in LOL

[@julymagnus493]

Good question

[@ivn3580]

Gutfeld is infinitely more entertaining Doesn't feel right describing him as better

[@Everson33]

They have ears and eyes.

[@frosty3077]

Chapos blind hatred of NATO and "Da Democrats" is so cringe

[@rosaluxemburg1670]

NATO'S treaty mission is to purely contain, restrict, and destroy communism (or any leftist free nation). Are you some NATO loving Liberal Andy or somethin? If so, that would be the Zenith of Cringe my friend

[@diehounderdoggenalt]

Yeah, how dare they criticize an organization that only exists to perpetuate unlimited consumerist extraction from the third world!
