Let's theorize/fantasize about alternate history.
What if Beria succeeded Stalin and managed to stay in power (let's say at least for a decade like Khrushchev)?
How would he shape the Soviet Union? Was he really going to sell out to the capitalists?

Also, what if Malenkov managed to defeat Khrushchev with his Anti-Party group? Was he planning a full return to Stalinism? How would that go? How would that affect the ongoing Cold War?

Not saying it's a flawless system (far from it) but its global rules of inclusion put a lot of emphasis on the "reliability" of sources; a few years ago I witnessed some questionable background info on Che Guevara getting deleted after a discussion by contributors (despite the info being sourced from a published book, and not contradicted by other sources with higher hierarchy). But it admittedly happened within the Wiki in my native language, which is notably more "malleable" than the english version in terms of rules.

That said, if you're implying the entire point was defaming Stalin/CPSU/communism from the beginning, why would they wait 10 years to add that info? I know there are many bad actors editing pages but that paragraph was added by a Norwegian socialist.

Discuss anything on Southeast Asian politics. Coming 2024 Elections, open orgs, People that should be dead for different reasons running in Malaysia's elections or just random shit. There are still dozens of us… hopefully! South Asia and Oceania posters can come in to discuss their regional politics as well.

After visiting the country six times in seven months, King Rama 2nd's son has made a massive move. He is now working as a representative of Thailand to negotiate with Taiwanese investors to increase Taiwanese investment in Thailand(visiting Taiwan this morning with two guys from The Board of Investment of Thailand). Despite not having regained his title, he maintains a strong connection with the palace, including his aunt and grandmother?. Interestingly, he enjoys a positive public image, even among MFP voters, as most of them do not harbor disdain for monarchy as you might expect. Furthermore, he is not protected by the lese majeste law. Political experts suspect that this move could be part of a plan to position him as the next prime minister, as the Thai constitution allows political parties to select a prime minister who is not their elected representative if they want. To me, they want him to be the next good prime minister in order to restore the monarchy's reputation and divert the focus of the people from true leftism, which is rising among the youth, towards social democracy instead.

There is no youth left movement, what the author will be talking about is democracy activists.
The university and foreign educated youth of the middle class calling for bourgeois democracy and an opening of the economy to foreigners.
They'll stop and integrate or move to the UK or Europe when it gets to heavy.
Not a bad thing, progressive, but important to remember this is not our fight.

Many are increasingly waking up to the fact that a "two state solution", which imperialists have been trying to shove down the throats of the Palestinian people for years, does nothing but legitimize and reward Zionist colonialism, while denying the right to return for Palestinians violently driven out of their Homeland by the ZioFascist marauders and denying a democratic voice to the Palestinian people. Unfortunately, the alternative that many of them have embraced is a "single democratic binational state" for both the indigenous Palestinians and the descendants of the racist colonizers, who will have equal rights in this "democratic" Palestine. This is alleged to be an "anticolonial" and "socially just" solution, and people insist that when they say "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" this is what they mean.

The reality is that this "solution", no less than the two-state solution, rewards the genocidal Zionist colonizers and hideously equates their "rights" with those of their victims, while denying the right of the Indigenous population to decide who can live on their land. Furthermore, it violates the right of return: how can there be a viable right to return when the homes stolen from Palestinians are being squatted by "Israeli" colonizers? And if this one-state solution is "democratic", can't "Israeli" colonizers just bring more of their co-ethnics to Palestine to outnumber and out vote the indigenous population, and restore Zionist fascist control? Furthermore, given that 98% of "Israelis" hold genocidal ethno-supremacist views to which they are fanatically committed, the idea that they will suddebly have a change of heart and peacefully agree to such a solution in the first place is UTTERLY preposterous!

In reality, there is only solution: for the Palestinian people to wage a fanatical struggle to the death against the colonizers, with the unconditional support and solidarity of all the world's anti-imperialist fighting peoples, after which the Zionist colonizers will be given the same ultimatum that the French "pieds-noirs" were given by the Algerian freedom fighters upon their victory: the suitcase or the coffin! The Zionists must be driven out of all of Palestine, dead or alive, and the one state solution will be a free and socialist Palestine for the indigenous Palestinians. From the river to the see, Palestine will be free, and it's time we stop cucking out and actually MEAN that.

If you say things that are incrementally more obviously false, you slowly filter out your audience to only those illiterate enough to still believe what you're saying. Then you create / integrate with communities of people that can acclimate kids to the resulting worldview.

It's why conventional scams don't bother to get more believable over time, you want people that are dumb enough that they don't have smarter friends to talk them out of bad financial decisions. This has always been a tool of rallying political support as well. It's just post-Q conservativism has managed to take it unprecedentedly far thanks to SEO.

also the solution to the demographic problem is very easy (tax lavish consumption heavily and consumption in general push for state funded facilities that offload parents and make children form mutual relationships that aren't based on monetary incentives) but it'll never work in an individualistic liberal purgatory though the only way remains importing people from faraway countries that neoliberalism hasn't fucked over yet but the proles don't like that

So I spent my early twenties crashing in and out of academia due to various family issues, mental problems, neetdom and financial issues etc, however in my late twenties I pulled through, I went back to school and graduated with a good stem degree.

However I am quite concerned with my cv that features these multi year gaps in my early twenties were I alternated between studying something else or neetdom.

What's the best way to lie about them? I taught myself a few foreign languages on my own to fluency what I should have recognized as my true passion earlier maybe. Should I just make up a story about how I lived abroad during these years or how to go about this?

Fuck bros I might get laid off tomorrow. Im a nervous wreck right now. The ceo sent an e-mail saying they want to review the timesheets I submitted. They might be trying to stiff me and lay me off. Fuck man I have bills to pay, this is a horrible time.

I was working as a contractor and pretty sure they misclassified me since they were the ones assigning me work. If I get laid off I wont be eligible for unemployment as a contractor, so I'm going to go file with the DOL that I was misclassified so I can get unemployment and the backwages they owe me if they try to stiff me.

What are the do's and don'ts for my meeting tomorrow, they're going to want to question the hours I turned in and grill me. Should I give them specific details, or deflect?

I can't take this anymore, I need to make some sort of choice. It's undeniable I literally live in the Fourth Reich. This is in fact World War III and I'm on the bad guy side. Since I was a teenager I've flirted with the idea of just up and leaving the USA and somehow making my way in Europe, which is the closest I could get to the good guys without being a colonizer myself. But then as a socialist I decided that the honorable thing to do would be to stay where I am and try to change things for the better here.
I'm wracked with guilt. No matter how atrocious it gets I still go to work every day and go about my life, my rationale to myself is that I have two roommates, whose rent would climb from $800 a month each to $1200 if I were to leave our house-share. Not to mention, my parents are getting old and lonely, and will need my help at some point. I feel so disgusted with my situation, and I confess I'm too much of a coward to sacrifice myself like Aaron Bushnell. I want to believe that if I was actually (rightfully) invaded by one of the USA's many, many victims I could be an ally, but for now until that happens everything I do makes me a rustless screw in the mass-murder machine. Every cent I pay in taxes goes to the bombs, to the guns, to the terror.
