Please and thank yous are enough to be polite to strangers.

Cut out the middle man, eat shit

Why would I ignore it? It works. Take a look at china, they are using the exact same tools after the failure of imported soviet communism

Keep on learning 19th century ideology in the 21st

Well let’s just see what people who actually have a clue have to say muffin https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/attritional-art-war-lessons-russian-war-ukraine

This still doesn’t make Russia magically have a larger industrial base than NATO, it’s absurd.

And the fact that you don’t even understand why using nominal GDP is nonsensical really does add to the comedy.

You think Price Point Parity is a measure of size, so I’m not sure you even understand what you are trying to claim. You’re certainly not using the right terms

And if you think Russia allocating 40% of government spending to be able to wage war on one small country makes them capable, good luck 🤞

Thanks for the essay

So we can make pills that cost 10 cents each and sell them for $500 each.

Lol. Because no R&D is involved. Most drugs are generics now anyway

Because the two week special military operation has floundered.

PPP isn’t related to size, doughnut. Do you even know what it stands for?

Bigger industry? Russia GDP 2.24 trillion dollars

NATO GDP 45 trillion dollars

Lol

The success of the Nordic social market model?

Meanwhile NATO is far behind Russia in weapons, manpower and industrial might.

Russia, with an economy smaller than Italy’s?

The tines are a changing

That’s quite a humble understanding imho. Centrists are technocratic. Evidence led, not ideological. Take good ideas from the centre right on regulating business and combine that with social policies from the left.

The Nordic model basically.

What a shit hole

Lol, what a loser

Don’t live in America?

Fringe benefit

Bollocks, any decent game needs a fuck ton of capital to develop

Please share all the greatest communist games

Agree that loot boxes suck, they are gambling, not gaming

Edit. Yes, Tetris. One game made in 1985. Brilliant example Tankards.

So the score so far for games made:

Communism - 1

Capitalism - 831,000

When Israel first encountered Islamists in Gaza in the 1970s and '80s, they seemed focused on studying the Quran, not on confrontation with Israel. The Israeli government officially recognized a precursor to Hamas called Mujama Al-Islamiya, registering the group as a charity. It allowed Mujama members to set up an Islamic university and build mosques, clubs and schools.

Only a mistake in hindsight though

Source of where Israel funded Hamas?

• Iran

Yes. It’s not really surprising for a Sunni Muslim terrorist to have Islamist terrorist reading materials is it?
