I find blahaj accusations of users here not being queer akshually very hurtful
  • These people always start with what they perceive to be the easy targets

    Just point me at them and I'll go hammarx-guns-blazing

  • The placement of the stove would make me not want to cook

  • Estonian Population 1800-2020
  • Because the whole point of me bringing up the 20% =/= 20k was to point out that your research was spotty or biased at best or that you're an unreliable narrator at worst. That particular statement wasn't a value judgement about the ethics of the USSR.

    It's funny though that you moved the goalposts as soon as you got caught being racist to an ethnic group in your own country. Is the Russian population a problem?

  • Another important facet of this: Communism doesn't have any malthusian elements in its ideology. There is no marxist theory which purports states are more efficient when they commit genocide.

    Naziism very boldly and forwardly posits ethnic cleansing as one of its aims. Genocide is attractive to fascists because it frees up resources and capital for those considered deserving of them. In fascism, death balances the budget and every prominent fascist writer was not shy about saying so.

  • Taking any advice or insight on accuracy. I typed this up really fast so it's a bit of a mess. Any supporting evidence helps.

  • Estonian Population 1800-2020

    So I was reading through @sunaurus@lemm.ee 's comment about Estonian demographic history and felt intrigued by some of the claims, so I did a teeny tiny bit of digging to see what I could find. So here goes:

    1. The Estonian population expanded rapidly during the industrial revolution right up to the 1910s.

    2. World War 1 and the Great Depression manage to suppress population growth for the next decade.

    3. Nazi occupation of Estonia (marked RKO) coincides with WW2. The vast majority of ethnic Jews flee to the USSR, and those whl stayed behind were exterminated. The nazis and their Estonian collaborators built concentration camps. This coincides with a dip in the graph.

    4. After WW2, Estonia is back under the USSR. The first Estonian SSR was established in 1940-1941 when nazi occupation started. After some lag, the population begins climbing on the same curve it did before. The population of the country peaks in 1989.

    5. 20000 people were deported to Russia very early in the existence of the SSR

    6. The nazis aimed to remove 50% of the population on paper but only had 4yrs to do so. This means using concentration camps on ethnic Estonians for germans to take their homes/land as in palestine today.

    7. 20k is not the same as sunaurus's 20% claim, not even close. 20% does however match the proportion of modern estonians who are russian. The obvious conclusion one can gather from this comparison is that this is not dissimilar to Great Replacement propaganda. The assumption here is that ethnic Russians are taking up Estonian space, because the evidence points to massive population growth under the ussr rather than a contraction like the one that occurred with German occupation.

    Immigration was highest during that huge growth period, so I'm curious where all those excess deaths and gulags occurred to have not slowed or stopped said growth. It sounds to me like this person is just intimidated by people they consider foreign.

  • 20 years later, president Ben Shapiro signs off on ending the war but passes it on to president Sinema to botch thr execution.

  • I saw an article that increased trade in yuan was stabilizing things to some extent, and this was one of Massa's ideas. Earlier this year, Fernandez was also reportedly hoping the gas pipeline from southern patagonia would help balance the budget when it came online. So it seems like this is just too little too late? Future Chinese investment in Argentina and its bid to join BRICS are likely going to evaporate if Millei wins, and from my very basic understanding that would weaken South America to US influence.

    How to Build an Earthen Oven (CW: Colonizer Cosplay)

    Mentioned earth ovens in a post and remembered this exists. Unfortunately the guy is very into...history. But the instructions are very clear and complete, and most importantly there are no animal products in this video.

    How to cook with it (CW: Brief shot of salt pork in the intro)

    Process of building a big oven for the post-apocalypse commune. Don't want to be caught unprepared when the rich hoard municipal methane supplies. (CW: Ambience includes a roast for some reason, unrelated to construction)
