He's also literally complemented Kim Jong Un many times and called him a great leader. He also said lots of praiseworthy things about Kim Jong Il as well.

This isn't coming out of nowhere, authoritarians tend to like other authoritarians.

In related news, a North Korean ambassador defected to South Korea and says Un's government is going to collapse due to corruption and instability.

Liberals may have been a little giddy for a few days after the election in 2012, maybe even a full week or two. But by end of November did anyone keep bringing up "Republican tears" at all? Did I just miss it? Or is the obvious answer a combination of (a) Republicans are super petty and (b) they don't want to actually defend making Trump the President.

We've reached a point in social discourse (and worryingly, more and more, in discourse that should be held to a higher standard) where painting the other side as angry/offended/upset is the same as proving them wrong. Why should I have to refute your argument when I can just call you a crybaby?

I'm continually amazed at how surface-level of an understanding on a subject someone can have while calling millions of other people ignorant on it

Like, it took me five seconds' thought to find two different ways of countering this: (a) the USSR and Nazi Germany started off WW2 as allies of convenience and would have stayed that way indefinitely if Hitler's ambition hadn't gotten the better of him, and oh yeah (b) Russia is no longer a communist country you loving idiot so this reference is completely worthless

this is a really fundamentally flawed understanding of the circumstances that lead to the formation and eventual failure of the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.

In short: the gently caress they would. it wasn't even really an allegiance of convenience so much as both sides going "well, we're clearly not in a position to fight now, so lets make it as painful as possible to go to war" with the super clear implication of "so we can pick this up in a year or two" and hitler went "as painful as possible? then they'll NEVER see it coming!" which worked about as well as it sounds.

the nazis had, quite literally, been screaming from the rooftops about what they were going to do to the USSR for a decade plus by that point. the war wasn't surprising, the timing was.

WERE. As in past tense.

Nobody thinks Trump is biologically Hitler. He's a nationalist in the same way the 1930s Nazis called themselves nationalists.

The WWII Russian Communist vs German Nazi idealogical friction KKKlurf is referring to was indeed in the past. Today, Russia is extremely different.

This concludes today's lesson on "things change," have a good day and may God bless your life with joy.
