Indeed, most of the episode was terribly uninspired, although the train ads gave me a laugh. The party, especially the Top Gear band was just painful, although I'm curious how actually awkward it was to witness live.

Cojawfee posted:It probably could have been a mini special where they all go around looking at what China has to offer. But they probably realized that would be incredibly boring (there's no super cars, and there's no cheap car challenge) and made it a segment instead. You think they would have at least compared those Chinese copies to their Western counterparts. My guess was that they were also somewhat hampered by the state in their coverage.

I thought they were going to make a crack about 5th gear for a second, but I guess that would've been too easy. I also like how they all the tags on their outerwear for the last bit.

The new track seems kind of boring to drive seeing as how there's very little elevation change, though that was the same problem with the old one (except doubly so I imagine).

mobby_6kl posted:It is, but sadly they barely showed anything of Georgia really, there's way more interesting stuff outside the main cities that didn't make it on the show. I've been meaning to go back since before the war and sadly just keep postponing it. The Stalin sketch was dumb black book of communism propaganda. Lol that you can even compare Hitler to Stalin. But I guess when you’re making bits on behalf of the richest man in the world, you gotta pander

I love being lied to in service of a historical narrative that benefits the rich and powerful. Stalin may have had his faults, but we should be honest about those faults and not embellish them

I’m not claiming that Stalin is a swell guy, I’m claiming that the propaganda is unfair to him and by proxy the USSR and communism to the benefit of nazis and wealthy scum like Jeff Bezos. We shouldn’t repeat old cold war propaganda, and instead have a more sober analysis and critique of history.

drgitlin posted:So you’re saying what, there was no great terror, no purges, and millions of soviet citizens didn’t die because of Uncle Joe? I’m saying the numbers were much lower than stated such that to compare Stalin with Hitler is a bad joke as the latter is responsible for something north of 80 million deaths.

MrOnBicycle posted:Nah. It's easy to find by yourself (no ones else is posting sources while defending Stalin of all people) and this stupid derail has gone on for too long. A lot of words for the latter option of “post your sources or stfu”. If there’s any derail, it was on tgt, where are beloved boys spent a few min on a boring segment giving credence to dumb nazi propaganda that you among many others have eaten up.
