Americans not getting over Pearl Harbor makes sense when you think of it as a sort of psychic wound whose memory is constantly renewed through fascist media. It doesn't just justify continued injustices against Japanese for their original sin, it justifies our colonial relations to Japan.

SuperKlaus posted:So this looks like as good a point as any to jump in can someone tell me, like one would a dumb baby, why I should be skeptical of claims about the Uyghurs aside from general distrust of the liberal apperatus. I would accept a link or something if nobody wants to tread old ground. I've seen posts in this thread and I've heard it said this zenz guy is the root of it all and is not credible but I just need some foundational knowledge to understand what's happening in xinjiang quote:First, let us establish that China-bashing was not and is not purely a Trump thing. Obama tried to do the TPP and the "pivot to Asia" to isolate China!

James Bradley, coauthor of Flags of Our Fathers, wrote a book called The China Mirage which is about the most materialist pov you're gonna get from a liberal, chronicling our flip flopping between China and Japan as the great white hope of missionaries/anticommunism and about the foundation of the "lost china" myth post revolution

brugroffil posted:I've heard this claimed before but is there a source on it it's real in my heart but unfortunately not in actual fact I think the number the vocf seems to have settled on is the conveniently round figure of 100 million dead, which based on this article is Soviet citizens (although it does say that wars should probably be counted on top) https://www.wsj.com/articles/100-years-of-communismand-100-million-dead-1510011810 quote:Such convictions set the stage for decades of murder on an industrial scale. In total, no fewer than 20 million Soviet citizens were put to death by the regime or died as a direct result of its repressive policies. This does not include the millions who died in the wars, epidemics and famines that were predictable consequences of Bolshevik policies, if not directly caused by them. quote:The victims include 200,000 killed during the Red Terror (1918-22); 11 million dead from famine and dekulakization; 700,000 executed during the Great Terror (1937-38); 400,000 more executed between 1929 and 1953; 1.6 million dead during forced population transfers; and a minimum 2.7 million dead in the Gulag, labor colonies and special settlements. I think the closest thing to nazi soldiers is "the partisans and civilians killed in the postwar revolts against Soviet rule in Ukraine and the Baltics" which presumably includes groups like the Ukrainian insurgent army and a fair amount of nazi collaborators from Baltic SS units or whatever they do also have this blog post with a larger total but I don't know what that's including, although I suspect mostly gulags and famine still as the guy is Solzhenitsyn adjacent https://web.archive.org/web/20180314175352/http://blog.victimsofcommunism.org/victims-by-the-numbers/ quote:USSR: 7,000,000 (Tolz) to 69,500,000 (Panin) I think the closest they really get is saying "and this doesn't include all the victims of the wars that Stalin started, although it probably should", e.g. the quote above and this event last year which made a bit of a stir quote:World War II endures in the popular imagination as a heroic struggle between good and evil, with villainous Hitler driving its events. But Hitler was not in power when the conflict erupted in Asia—and he was certainly dead before it ended. His armies did not fight in multiple theaters, his empire did not span the Eurasian continent, and he did not inherit any of the spoils of war. That central role belonged to Joseph Stalin. The Second World War was not Hitler’s war; it was Stalin’s war. which is a neat way of inflating the total whilst not counting the Nazis (but also not not counting them) also I didn't realise the victims of communism foundation was created by congress and signed into law by one Billiam Jefferson Clinton also also when I found that out I went to their website to see if they're funded by the NED or anything (no idea, I couldn't see where they disclosed donors) and I found this list of leading luminaries of anti communism an outstanding group of people, I particularly enjoy Dr Lockheed-Martin's work E: forgot that they had a thing about how they were going to add global deaths from the chinavirus to the total too XMNN has issued a correction as of 10:50 on Dec 1, 2021 |

robert conquest sounds like one of those ridiculous made up names but apparently hes realquote:George Robert Acworth Conquest CMG OBE FBA FRSL (15 July 1917 – 3 August 2015) was a British historian and poet. He is best known for his laws of politics. his what now quote:Conquest posited two laws of politics, apparently not referenced in any of his books but as observations he made in conversations while alive:

In 1986, Conquest said that "a science-fiction attitude is a great help in understanding the Soviet Union. It isn't so much whether they're good or bad, exactly; they're not bad or good as we'd be bad or good. It's far better to look at them as Martians than as people like us."
