There’s an alternate history where Russia didn’t go communist.In 1911, a man named Pyotr Stolypin was Prime Minister of Russia. Staunchly anti-war and traditionalist, he was nevertheless also an energetic reformer. He suppressed violent revolutionaries, but gave peasants their own land to farm. He was the path to a peaceful capitalist reformation in Russia. Lenin hated him, and called him the hangman-in-chief.Then he was assassinated. Historians still debate whether it was a conspiracy or a lone gunman. But ...

RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)The populist right takes for granted only one thing -- that communism was a huge threat to our Christian and otherwise conservative values -- and that Reagan beat them. Other than that, their critique of Reagan and the Bushes and those era's conservatives are spot on.Reagan-era conservatives worked with the Democrats to give us the immigrant flood and the elevation of Wall Street via the cheapening of labor -- resulting in the poverty of Americans today who want to start families, ...

Democratic clean sweep wasn’t left or center— voters chose affordability over authoritarianism
MSNBC· 2025-11-08 19:59
Election Analysis - The Democratic party's clean sweep in recent elections was not about ideology, but a referendum on Donald Trump's chaos and the affordability crisis [4][5] - Approximately 75% of Americans reported a jump of at least $100 in their monthly household costs in the last year [5] - Voters chose competence over chaos and a party capable of governing, signaling a desire for democracy and a better life [16] - A record number of Americans voted in an off-year election, demonstrating an understanding of the assignment [10] - The Democratic Party has become the only major party still tethered to sanity, to democracy, to the idea that government should serve ordinary people [16] Political Strategy - The Republican party is attempting to distract the public by fear-mongering about a communist takeover [2] - Democrats should not fall into the trap set by Republicans to keep them on the defensive [2][14] - Democrats should leverage their pluralistic strength against fascism [13] - The Democratic wave was evident everywhere, and the top brass needs to take the win and listen to voters [18] - The use of communism as a scare tactic is an American tradition of demonizing basic social reforms [28][29]

RT tantum (@QuasLacrimas)You defeated communism in a tundra on the opposite side of the world while letting communists run our cities at home. You oversaw a generation of tech transfer to China and the insane deindustrialization of both America and our European allies. You are popping the champagne on affirmative action while demanding Americans celebrate the importation of their own replacements. You dirty the name of Ronald Reagan by associating him with your movement's ~38 years of failure. ...

I don’t care for a masturbatory self-indulgent ethics debate about ancient history. I care that we are no longer in a Cold War, but the same subversive networks, capacities & predicates used in the Cold War on Global Communism are now used in a Neo Cold War on Global Populism.Col.Dixie (@JohnR1517648):@MikeBenzCyber @CPAC I’ve always wanted to ask you this, do you understand that what CIA and other intel agencies did during the Cold War and including deception was necessary? ...
