GoluboiOgon posted:The 1905 revolution was started by a police spy, so maybe cops are the vanguard of the proletariat? remember stalin was an Okhrana agent! comrade beria had the proof all along indeed though there was a huge crossover between police spies and revolutionaries in early 20th century Russia, with tsarist police spies conducting real actual assassinations on tsarist officials to gain street cred among revolutionary groups they were spying on. one of the most important assassinations/terrorist acts of the period was the assassination of the reformist prime minister Stolypin in 1911 and it was done by a paid police informant inside some leftist socialist revolutionary groups. Stolypin was hated by both the revolutionaries and reactionaries in the government. To this day nobody know if the killer did it on behalf of the group he was spying on or the guys paying him inside the government. Typo fucked around with this message at 18:42 on Sep 8, 2017 |

Top City Homo posted:Belarus is a well run country because Lukashenko was able to maintain Soviet era policies and neutralized parliamentary bullshit which was influenced by US financed nationalistic saboteurs lol Belarus is literally just a worse little soviet union at this point and he's its dictatorial chairman; huge amount of power and legislature designed to be sycophantic i mean this requires the same sentiments as DPRK: sure the western media may be full of propaganda and other poo poo about it, but that doesn't make it a good place to be emulated

and if there's one thing such a place should do it should double down on an antidemocratic system that mainly only benefits a handful of political elites  since they are members of an explicitly political order instead of a de facto ruling capitalist class serving in the same capacity this is actually good

I visit it every couple of months. There are no cops, pensioners don't sleep on the street and and it builds 3 times the amount of social housing of Ukraine. Literally compare it Ukraine and you will find that Lukashenko saved the place from falling apart.

My most vivid memory of Vilnius is a bloodstain on the pavement by the train station. It was there when I arrived, and was there when I left 2 days later.
