but they got NIMBY’d by property owners who wanted a bigger setback

What kinda property owners? Do you happen to have a news link or some such? Were those landowners or what?

said Russian forces were not mingling with U.S. troops

Why would they?

You mean like a false target? Pretty sure ICBMs at least have those already, specifically to ensure payload is not intercepted

If only. But methinks a drone is a more difficult target than people trying to hide from them

Conversely - those FPVs and quads with thermals that drop grenades are a pretty bad news for the proletariat

So who’s growing the wheat? As I understand it, it’s an ongoing practice for over a decade. So someone is growing wheat every year only for the US military to swoop in and harvest it? Or do they ambush trucks with already harvested wheat? Article doesn’t seem to mention the hows, focusing on oil. But oil is a bit different from wheat

I agree. It is time we talk about fall of capitalist system in Russia which putin represents and establishing socialist republic

Different situations, imo. For one, Germany after ww2 benefited immensely from the western propaganda machine, whitewashing it, painting USSR as worse, etc. Additionally, it could be argued Germans never had such a terrible reputation to begin with. Compared to the notably more diverse Russia, which is being slanted as “the other”

How small is relatively small? I live in a standard 33 square meter apartment: one room, balcony, kitchen, combined bathroom (as in, toilet, bath and washing machine in the same chamber). It’s alright, although it’s gotten cluttered over the years. I don’t, however, have any children or other relatives in the apartment (just my partner and the cat). Usually people live in the same amount of space, but with children (often multiple), grandparents and other additions. Now that gets cluttered.

On the other hand, there are new apartments being sold and rented that are 15-20 square meters. Now that’s where things get interesting. 20 or so meter apartments are what’s labeled “studio” here - means they don’t have a separate kitchen (it’s just one big chamber) and no balcony or anything. 15 and below have strange layouts, arguably closer to something like a trailer - storage space under a bed, which also serves as a sofa/chair to sit in. There’s a folding table next to the bed, which functions as both a dining table, working table and whatever else you might need a table for. There are some overview videos on YT, if you’re curious.

Now does that all sound livable? Maybe, if you’re young and single. Except they still cost an arm and a leg. So yeah. How small is relatively small?

Late soviet intelligentsia: “STUPID evil sovok building tiny 33 m² apartments! They are too tiny! Unlivable! Not like Blessed America, where everybody lives in spacious, comfortable suburban houses!”

Modern day: “Actually 33 m is too much, 15 would be just fine. Even 3 square meters could be alright!”

So don’t quote me on this, but I think soviet T-80 also uses a turbine engine (for S P E E D). It also has some kinda angled exhaust, so it doesn’t quite deafen you when you see it frontally, but it roars something fierce when you’re to the side of it

Not just western

hes got nukes and hes willing to use them; so theres nothing the world can do but let him.

I too am afraid of Joe Biden

Unfortunately he’s also been shitting on USSR and Lenin, from what I’ve heard from the Q/A

“Coincidence” my ass

In other instances it was a misfire (engine failure), targeting failure and at least once a partial intercept

I take it the actual bribe-takers and the company in question were not touched by law?

“If you’re homeless - just buy a house!”

Because taxing the rich is not the solution, it’s a bandaid at best, useless at worst

Pretty sure all social media is deep in the pocket of the ruling class and serves to mislead the working class
