I'm sure there's plenty of "socialism" remaining in Russia. What will Russia be like, look like tomorrow? Who knows???? Who cares???? I know one thing, Putin is no God and whatever power/ influence he thinks that he still has today is substantially less than the Russians who were in charge had during the time of the Soviet Union.(03-03-2017, 02:59 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote: Are you a Russian agent or a clueless pawn who has unknowingly been serving the interests of the Russian's?

Moi? Russia isn't even "socialist" anymore. It's an oligarchy. I don't like oligarchs. Even the one YOU voted for.
We'll see. He apparently has enough power to interfere in the affairs of other countries, and to spread lies that Americans are fool enough to believe.
No, I don't care for Russia's current brand of "socialism." Of course, American reactionaries see "socialism" in many places where it doesn't exist. Anything to boost trickle-down economics and arouse welfare haters. The votes pile up, enough for the oligarchy's vote-riggers to do the rest.
"Putin is no God?" I thought the Soviets didn't need God.
Yes. Now you see, "moral authority" is some pretty looking meme that justifies military action/subjugation of "the people" who live in the targeted country.
It's like the "human rights" meme as it applies to Arab countries that have had "Arab Spring". I rather doubt the "deep state" doesn't give a rat's ass to the idea that "human rights" is what is passed off as to propaganda [deliberately stated] so as to brainwash the masses to support the already planned, war on x, where x = actual nation state or transnational entity. CLASSIC-XER is pretty easy as way of doing a phase shift from Joneser to core X, OK?
1. Let me state at first, When it comes to stupid moral crusades, we're pretty much agreed , with 1 disagreement, Drugs. You're understand matches... or not?
Feel free to elaborate either way. I'm cool with legit criticism.
2. Our disagreement wrt drugs seems to be life experience based.
a. you experienced a very negative fallout from being allowed at our age to do substances.
b. Then as may/may not have been communicated out. I'll fall on my sword here, OK?
c. Yeah, the sword cut hurt. I'll narrow my definition of "legal medical marijuana" since that's what I get from how Pres. Trump sees the issue at hand.
d. "Medical Marijuana" shall be licensed to state sanctioned [fees paid, proper inspections of record/cash infolow/outfolows/] Each medical marijuana dispensary shall keep accurate records of their patients. A full accounting of marijuana purchaser license/purchase shall be kept. Will that work for you as a compromise? I certainly know more research needs to be done, however, I think weed, the plant should be a schedule III , along with Marinol. If this is not sufficient, post what reforms, etc.
you'd like, OK?
