What is going here? Is this all post Soviet world building lore generated by nato?

It's that and the fact that the Soviets didn't go far enough to purge/reeducate Balts that were, at minimum, 100% fine with the Nazis. A pretty common pattern, actually: the USSR plays something soft for good will and gets smacked because the other side were unredeemably fascist.

Just a biy of yellowish dust in the air would make the sky a bit green. Happens in earth all the time. Especially near sunset, when scattering shifts to a lower wavelength spectrum.

The term is new but the concept is not. It picked up in liberal academic circles because they're constantly rediscovering things that communists and anarchists already knew 150 years ago and forcing it through the lens of liberal "progress" as if it's a brand new insight. The important part is to remove the socialism aspect.

It ends up working as a form of recuperation, a toothless mimic of organising for social change that is frequently wielded against socialists that say, "economics too" (which, incidentally, was included in the original liberal definition).

Anyways I still use the term to communicate with liberals as a shorthand for "I'm not a reactionary, how about you?"

What's a good word for, "liking the people doing a thing and agreeing with them and the content they produce but being bored out of your mind when you actually consume that content "? Because that describes me for a lot of lefty podcasts, including some on this list.
