I enjoy the "work mind virus" typo. Soviet union, notoriously anti-work
Maybe the work mind virus is when you lazily work for the benefit of the capitalist rather than standing up and working hard for the benefit of your workers' council.

Or maybe they can't spell 'woke', which is unusual considering how often they probably write it.

I bet 20 second after posting that he was bitching about socialism and welfare states.

Also, they have an unnerving ability to latch onto failed things and spin them up as though they were actually successful.

“The soviets were all powerful!”

Uh, they collapsed and spiraled into a decade of turmoil, lost their empire and their heirs are currently getting their ultra macho asses kicked by hastily mobilized and patchwork equipped civilians.

Yeah but only because the weak homonazi soy boys from the west weakened their SVPERIOR TRADITIONAL CVLTVRE since the glories days of the big, strong, and apparently very religious Soviet era

Ultra right wingers aren't actually religious, they just use Christianity as a tribal fetish, so the fact that the USSR was atheist is not really the problem for them that you all seem to think it is.

What's weird is that evangelicals used to be hard core into parsing things as shibboleths to determine if a politician is a "real" christian or not. Recall when Obama had a slip of the tongue and said "my Musl-...My Christian faith" and it was used as incontrovertable proof that Obama was a Salafist plant, and probably still is. Had Obama said something like "Two Corinthians", they would've jumped all over it but with Trump, the most pettily sinful, venal politician in history, they just let it slide.

I remember Evangelicals speculating on whether or not Trump was actually a super secret Christian while he was still the nominee and even a little bit into the first year of his presidency. It quickly became clear that he sucks at even pretending to be one, though, so the goalposts quickly shifted, so every time Trump mumbled something in a pre-written speech about people being "made in the image of God" they still popped bottles and used it as proof positive that he was the most pro-Christian president ever. Their supposed "requirement" of officeholders holding to strict moral values was dropped like a hot potato as soon as the jig was up only to be replaced with "We like him because he's a fighter!"

There are still people out there under the impression that Trump is a born-again moral Christian, but those are the Charismatic types that also think he's a god-sent capital-p Prophet and that we just need to Trust the Plan. They're not exactly inhabiting the same reality as the rest of us.

Once you understand the religious stuff is a mere vessel for supremacy everything makes perfect sense.

From my experience, if you're out in the rain long enough, your feet will get wet regardless. Don't wear waterproof boots, they will never dry once wet. Do wear wool socks, they keep your feet warm when wet.

Bags are just going to make your foot sweat and have nowhere to go.

Have you also considered solely from your experiences that you have poor footwear knowledge? What if I told you there was a non-magical, entirely free market derived solution called the rubber boot?

As a free speech absolutist his hands are tied. Such a shame. Really wish there was something he could do, but his moral principles are too strong.

Which is exactly why he must instead fight the ADL tooth and nail in response to their vicious and terrible speech against him.
