Ah so it's less "why do people want things ugh" while being rich and sheltered, and more "ugh rich fuckers and consumerism". I can get behind that, probably should a skipped the aristocrat self insert though :v:


Aristocracide is a moral good.

I think you reading way too much into it. Its less "aristocrat self insert" and more "a visual shorthand to signal that it's a different era" and:

I'm starting to question how many Americans understand that the hammer and sickle is no longer used in Russia, well, except by weirdos like Aeroflot. I'd settle for bears, balalaikas​, and vodka over the hammer and sickle.

The hammer and sickle have been used for so long that it's a lot more effective of a symbol than just a bear drinking vodka

The Intercept does suck but evidence shows she would've been apprehended anyway even if they didn't handle this as badly as possible. Not like that will stop Rall from complaining about journalists.

B-b-b-but what about when Stantis had his painful and personal realization, after eight years of cheerleading Bush II, that you shouldn't be a cheerleader and, from now on, he'd be nothing but harsh on the President no matter who it happened to be starting January 20th, 2009?? He made an entire comic about it!

Nobody would get it. They'd have to label it "Russia", which would make laypeople confused and people in this thread angry about overlabeling.

I read The Intercept regularly and usually defend them when D&D goes off on them or Greenwald for whatever reason, but they really hosed up on this one. Compromising the identity of your source when you're a publication known as a safe place to leak documents is a big problem.

I wonder how many Russians understand that balalaikas are actually a sign of a screenwriter giving a solitary gently caress and going for a stereotype that take a whole two seconds to come up with. And that absolutely no one has any idea that cranberries are supposed to be uniquely Russian.

If Russia hadn't picked such a boring flag, this would be a good point. The hammer & sickle is so much cooler. And a useful shorthand for "Russia, up to its old tricks again."

Very scary people. I remember seeing news of the troubles as a kid in the mid 70s which was pretty nasty then this dreadful loud mouthed 'Reverend' would give an interview and you realised this was going to continue for a long time when there's so much hate involved. When Ian Paisley died the world became a much brighter place.

The locals here in Scotland near where I live still hold Orange marches too. After being stuck by a couple blocking roads you learn to avoid going out when they're on. Just wearing the wrong colour can get you beaten up (green for example).

The Tories like their evil but they can't hold a candle to the shear malevolence of the DUP.
