Choice of the word “surrogate” suggests they’re thinking of it as on-demand baby-factories for people who already want one but can’t have them the natural way.

Excuse me, I have a date with my toilet bowl now…

Shoulda been clearer with your requests. It’s your fault, prol.

How the f

Hell yeah. Oblivion on coffee grinders when.

At least it’s not another version of Skyrim. Is this instead of TES VI? xD

Probably the worst case post-Soviet scenario. No, I did not forget about the Baltics.

That country that spent most of it’s history as a military dictatorahip? I’m shocked and appalled.

Well, duh, muh ebil CeeCeePee just guns people down with tanks, you see.

Depends on whether the U.S. can boost it’s own semiconductor manufactuting in time.

And while they’re certainly ready to blow up Taiwanese factories, I also think you overestimate capitalists’ willingness to stick with their public stances in the event that they can’t produce enough on their own. The west is still buying Russian nuclear fuel. And gas. And oil. And fertilizers… And Russia is still selling.

Happy birthday, Comrade Hun!

No family member wished me a happy birthday tho ):

Why so?

What potential? France is (finally) bleeding colonies, EU has to buy obscenely expensive American energy resources, doesn’t work on nuclear power and engages in the opposite of industrialization while throwing money into a doomed war for brainrot reasons.

Ya got potential to kiss the ring and hope that Trump’s administration ends with Trump and doesn’t represent a whole new strategy of American powers that be at this point.

Nah, I’m good.

I mostly agree with Comprehensive49, it’s just hella frustrating from the inside.

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!

Modern Russian WWII movies energy. It’s more subtle, of course, no rapehordes, but you can bet there will be a senselessly cruel officer(probably the political officer) and “the people won in spite of the system” energy. Thankfully, they keep reliably getting shit for it from the audience.

At times it can even be that they don’t consider it a force for good, but the belief it’s enemies are always way worse is ironclad.

By all means go fight in Ukraine but leave me out of it.

Whoooa, what do you mean? France has the Legion for a reason.

Speaking of uniting. That’s something I was interested by like smack dab in the beginning of 2022, but then war in Ukraine flared up and my attention was consumed by the resulting shitstorm ever since. Actually, observing US’ culture wars did a lot to push me towards class consciousness.

Is that realistic in the US? Because what limited info I can get from the Internet suggests that libs greatly succeded in atomising the hell out of workers in the US into self-segregating minority communities and separating them from the majority of white workers with superstructure-focused euroleft brainrot.

I’m genuinely curious, thanks in advance for your perspectives.

P. S. If someone can write a post about this, that would be even more awesome.

Это белошиз порвался, or do you just have a “Russian” friend, my dear loan shark lover?

Oh, it’s one of my favourite flavors of copium.

Someone starts complaining about some rotting systems and crises or other, libs nod along, then the magical C-word comes up and they’re like “WAIT, NOT LIKE THAT! That’s not how capitalism is supposed to work, that’s bad bad evil bad corporatism. We can fix it with proper legislation an stuff and things!”.
