Yes, actually the whole government is socialist with a minority communist-feminist faction. Portugal's government too is completely socialist, unfortunately though this is because they kicked the stalinists and trotskyites out of the former coalition. There are high level discussions right now to form a socdem to communist aligned iberian federation

I'm joking btw, just in case anybody is fooled

The father of one of my best friends is permanently paraplegic because of a spinal stroke he had during a tantric sex retreat he was attending in Ukraine for some reason months after the war started

Edit: I stole this from a tweet, have no idea if it's true

they are millions of real people whose lives have now been RUINED because of the war.

They're only going to start becoming less ruined once they accept that they have to negotiate.

The US got heat from other supporters of Ukraine for that even

Getting heat doesn't matter if everyone falls in line anyway.

concern about ethnic Russians in Ukraine

Why do you consider this bullshit, exactly? Do you disagree that russians in eastern ukraine were treated unfairly?

They're not, republicans have supported every Ukraine bill so far have they not?

You're reading it wrong, she's stating you can't make a moral equivalence between Obama and, say, Trump or something because supposedly the worst things obama did were silly.

Sounds like bullshit, what do you base that on?

Dengist foreign policy and the Sino Soviet split

That's not Deng that's Mao and Zhou Wenlai. Mao was even mad that Zhou was getting all the credit for reopening relationships with the west and stuff. By the time Deng was rehabilitated and given more power (by Mao btw) China's foreign policy was already set.

Read Vogel's biography of Deng it's very good

China actually warned Allende to be "careful of counter-revolutionary", and specifically called out the army IIRC, they just didn't break off relations with the country post-coup
