See my other comment. I think since these two chains just repeat each other it would make sense to continue this on in just one chain. What do you think?

No, Leninism is different. Marxism-Leninism specifically was a creation of Stalin.

Marxism–Leninism was developed from Bolshevism by Joseph Stalin in the 1920s based on his understanding and synthesis of classical Marxism and Leninism.

When talking about Stalinism people often means not just that ideology but also the brutal way it was implemented and how the country was ruled

Stalinism is the means of governing and Marxist–Leninist policies implemented in the Soviet Union (USSR) from 1927 to 1953 by Joseph Stalin. It included the creation of a one-party totalitarian police state, rapid industrialization, the theory of socialism in one country (until 1939), forced collectivization of agriculture, intensification of class conflict, a cult of personality,[1][2] and subordination of the interests of foreign communist parties to those of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, deemed by Stalinism to be the leading vanguard party of communist revolution at the time.

This doesn’t seem to talk about the actual claim of if there were “plenty of black people in Ancient Greece”. If it does, it seems to be buried in the study

Assuming they read it, ofc

World is after ML for being Stalinists and ML is after World for not being Stalinists hah

I think it’s to give out background for who this child rapist and sex trafficker is beyond the whole thing the news is talking about. It’s like writing news articles about a murder conviction and just calling the person “convicted murderer”, sure it is accurate but also that’s the what the whole article is about

It was a joke

Well clearly not in every use. “Jackbooted thugs” is a well established and has no race connotations. And using it that way suits the situation a lot better than whatever use is associated with black people

What’s the racist aspect of it…?

Thank God for wholesome Western conservative elites

I think their logic is that it would prevent illegal aliens from voting and I guess that’s how they thought the earlier election was stolen. Some probably genuinely think that

We can’t all be Zuckerberg

From the article it wasn’t clear to me if all of those engineers were in R&D or if they had that many engineers in total

A lot of companies get bloated and have totally unnecessary emplyees tbh

The logic that Greece is next to Asia so there should be plenty of Indians there for example is not really the kind of stuff I was hoping for when I asked for a source.

I’m asked for them to provide a source for their claim, that’s all. Noting so far has really shown the claim to be true.

I mean it is statistically that way. You can search it or wait for me to get home and give you the link. Either works for me.

Why not just post those actually relevant sources, my brother?

Well two mutually incompatible claims, then. And I just don’t really believe in either one. Most hockey leagues don’t have fighting and there’s no more bad behaviour. It seems to be mainly a North American thing

But it wouldn’t have been reversed if people voted for Democrats. So you’d get something out of it instead of getting something negative (reversing it and going long ways the other way
