The USSR obviously

I mean isn’t this more "circle jerking " about dismantling state propaganda? Interacting with those you were told are your enemy?

Besides, people should always celebrate the positives, and look towards them as something that is possible in their country too.

And as an fyi: when we were here before, the workers revolution in Russia was new. The achievements were so profound that workers in North America began demanding similar concessions from our governments. There was a real threat of overthrowing the existing power structures. And what happened? Weekends, literacy, healthcare, just generally improved living conditions. To dismiss cultural exchange as circle jerking is to ignore history and the power that comes with knowing things are better elsewhere, and that you can have that too.

Here, I’ll show you what I meant.

You are a C U N T

See? No using a disability as an insult, just right to the point. Does that make sense?

Especially when your own government is doing a fine job destabilizing society already.

Maybe chill with the ableism. You can call a removed a removed without bringing disability into it.

That would be interesting. I don’t believe the data exists. Just need a definition of bully, a list of kids who are bullies (which would be difficult given they are children and that has ethical issues), and a follow up to see if they went to cop school, became cops, career length, etc.

The stats would be easy to do.

I imagine asking a cop would be a bad idea (might go to jail for example), but maybe their former teachers or classmates could work? I’m just yapping at this point lol
