  • What an answer. Sources as a paragraph 22, prasing the benevolence of USA, "others are worse" and straight up artifical starvation apologia.

  • Date format. Temperature is weird but unlike lenght and weight i basically never even had to really calculate it, it's usually clear from the context if it's hot or cold and it's enough for casual reading. But date is often delivered without the context and can seriousy confuse you if you don't know it's a murican one.

  • Usian weird measure system is one thing, it is at least easy identifable. But that illogical date format is just straight up fucking wrong.

  • Russia and China conduct freedom of navigation exercises near Alaska
  • Of course, key context is date: 17 june 1917. By that time USA was fresh into the WW1, and the implication of the 3 years of naval warfare included the fact that predrednought battleships was all but useless - slow, weakly armed, and very vulnerable especially to mines. And US Navy had tons of those ships which were incredibly propagandised (like in case of Great White Fleet).

    So the US jingos of 1917, differing very little from the US jingos of 2023, were choking hard on the pill that their very expensive toys are just scrap and that resulted, except the usual screeching you could expect from angry jingos, with ideas like this.

    Ultimately Washington Treaty from 1922 (signed accompanied by incredible amount of screeching of jingos from all included countries) just send all that scrap to scrap.

    The idea itself is of course completely unfeasible from the point of engineering and also tactical nonsense too, which make that right side text even funnier, as you can see not only jingos but journos too changed very little in last century.

  • Progress vs Regress
  • Yeah idk where it originated exactly, but the term itself suggest it was coined by someone actually having some empathy and brains, while liberals are famously lacking on both departments. Ultimately Engels is as always correct about the libs "These gentlemen think that when they have changed the names of things they have changed the things themselves."

  • Progress vs Regress
  • It’s probably a measure of functional literacy

    it's too high for a functional literacy. Even in well educated country like Poland with 99% formal literacy the functional literacy reach around 60%, so in USA it bound to be even less.

  • Progress vs Regress
  • iirc the term "homeless" imply being a complete social outcast, while those people are in fact part of society often with jobs, families, friends etc. The only thing they lack is the physical house, therefore unhoused.

    But as other posters noticed, the shift is also a liberal platitutide instead of action.

    Very often the first and only one.

  • Yeah same here, also with patriotism. It take me to (not very original) conclusion that only socialists are patriots, even those that loudly denounce any ideas of patiotism and nationalism.

    Fun fact: for example, if we know them by their fruits, by far most successful polish nationalist in history was Stalin.

    Sigliberalism is dead, it's time to restart Sigmarxism

    They shall be our finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to the cause of proletariat. Like clay we shall mould them, and in the furnace of class war forge them. They will be of iron will and steely muscle. In great tank armour shall we clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease of liberalism, no sickness of capitalism will blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that no foe can best them in battle. They are our bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are our Red Army and they shall know no fear.

    I didn't even had to change this quote very much

    Some highlights from the polish bookshelves

    I often say how horror is to browse bookstores in Poland, so here you have some examples. Cathegory "history", new publications in last month or so.

    From the left:

    1. "Great disappointment, genesis of solidarność revolution." - i was like "it's understatement of century to call solidarność only disappointment" but then i remembered it's Poland and of course the "great disappointment" in title is about the PRL in 70's.
    2. "Crimes of communism are not talked about" - uh huh, dozens of books overflowing in every bookstore and probably thousands in catalouges don't exist.
    3. "The hell in eastern front. Diary of a German soldier" - likely clean wehrmacht myth
    4. "Freedom, Equality, Genocide" - not even French Revolution is safe in Poland
    5. "Hostages of hell" - a tale of three poor innocent Polish soldiers who volunteered to invade Afghanistan and were so traumatised by that hell so they signed up for another tour and now they tell us how bad it was. Typical vet propaganda like in US.
    6. "Gramsci, that is the suicide of revolution" - Main thesis is that Gramsci was really a fascist and thus every modern marxist is also a fascist.

    There's also around dozen of less suspicious books. And i'm not even covering other cathegories like philosophy (zero materialists), biographies and diaries, political science, sociology etc. etc. You will find nazi normalisation and casual anticommunism en masse in literally every genre even in romance books. Maybe except children's books, but i wouldn't bet on it.

    And that's every month, for 33 years by now. Actually this one is on the tamer end of spectrum, the "cucumber season" (summer slowing of the publishing market) is clearly coming.
