Communism as it was in the 80s is effectively dead. I even pointed this out to my Chinese friends, and they agreed. What they have now is “New Communism”. I read it from their own children’s textbooks, and that’s what they’re teaching them.

What new communism truly is is fascism. If I’m talking with people who know China and communist states, I use the term fascism around them, but not to the average person who doesn’t know worldwide affairs. It’s what we’re truly up against.

How have things not gotten worse? I’m sorry, there’s a reason why people in this thread keep on bringing up China and Taiwan, because that’s next and will be at least (if not more) ten times worse than what’s going on in Ukraine. That’s the big picture here. Taiwan is the endgame and the precious that could ignite WWIII and throw this world into darkness.




Of course they’re worse, but you going to DC to protest wasn’t going to make it any better. We don’t disagree on a lot of things, this, China/taiwan, included, but you nor anyone else as a citizen is going to impact removing a president from office individually. As far as society is concerned, if it was going to be done it would have by now between the election and covid. All we can do is prepare for the fall because our society has become soft and too tolerant.

There is a lot of back and forth info re: Chechens. Some say dead. Some say alive. Some say Chechens are in the Country. Some say they aren't. etc.

Uh. JFK would probably disagree if he could.

My hotel in Moscow asked me to settle the bill early because they aren’t sure if credit cards are going to work once SWIFT sanctions kick in.

You don’t know what’s across the sea. I’m just the Soothsayer warning you of the Ides of March. Rohan is being invaded by Isengard now, but China is Mordor and Taiwan is Gondor, and the Great Eye’s gaze is fixed on Minas Tirith. If it falls, we’re done for an age of darkness and possible nuclear holocaust.

What do you make of the opposition leader in Belarus going to the coup in the middle of all of this?



That Belarus will be next if Lukashenko can’t put a stop to that.

Looks like Russia has decided against preserving as much of the cities inside Ukraine as possible.
