So Finland was a legitimate target because 20 years prior they were a jumping off point for the losing side of a civil war? Is that the gist?
It was actually precipitated by the Soviet’s demand that the Fins cede territory that kicked off the war.
You are siding with the imperialists here.
Oh, I assure you, I have no red tinted glasses for my home. We are run by a decaying orange pedophile and his fascist sycophants.
That means I’m less inclined to trade one set of unaccountable “elites” for another just because they don’t like each other.
China is a state capitalist society that has the very same problem the US does. Overproduction of a group of “elites (parasites)” that need more and more power and wealth so they can get more power and more wealth.
Chinas actions towards the HK protestors and towards Taiwan indicates they are imperialist, which is a non starter for me already.
“Gawd Dam LibrUls”.
You sound like my Trumper Dad
Not being able to disagree with how your government conducts business without legal punishment.
Non authoritarian states don’t have dissidents in exile or political prisoners.
The Soviets invaded Poland in conjunction with the Nazis under the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, are you sure you want to go down that route now?
So 13 out of 14 people do not belong to the only political coalition (the 8 parties with 700,000 members total don’t really count as “opposition parties”) that is legally allowed in their country?
In reference to my original post, we agree that authoritarianism is bad and you are arguing the case that China and the CCP is not authoritarian, correct?
Did something happen prior to that which may have made Finland less than friendly to the Soviet Union?
I wonder why they may not have wanted to ally with the country that just invaded them.
You should be skeptical of any poll or survey that presents that level of agreement on anything with that breadth of societal implications.
How do you square the whole Hong Kong protests in regards to the extradition laws? Or the aggression towards Taiwan?
I don’t see how “blind submission to authority” could be any more clear cut than it is.
When was the last time Finland invaded someone?
The communist party controls the state, and not everyone is a member.
Didn’t Russia start a now 4 year long conflict in Ukraine
Yes, but those are entirely voluntary. The point is that a government should have no say in reproduction whatsoever. That is why campaigns to change the cratering birthrate have failed.
Would a non-aurhoritarian government be able to institute a one-child policy like China?
The abandoned this a few days ago because of a law suit that rightfully pointed out that because ICE refuses to make themselves easily identifiable, the rule is impossible to follow. A drone operator can’t know where an Ice vehicle is before launching a drone.
