Must not have spent much time in crypto spaces. I would say they trend along the lines of Joe Rogan fans, but they are definitely more " bro libertarian " then leftist if anything.

There are some leftists who are into crypto currencies, but by and large most of the crypto space is dominated by anti game stop bois,investors, business moguls, drug dealers and small business owners.

Not exactly a huge overlap with leftist ideals there.

The Israel situation is not helping (in the near term, at least).

Yep. This is a issiue sensitive to many black folk in the USA as well. Democrats unwavering support for the police and more or less indifference to the worsening economic conditions for the black community at large will not help either.

Biden will also likely more formally deploy troops into the middle east after some sort of golf of Tonkin esque incident takes place in the Mediterranean.

More talk of war on terror after a pretty difficult recovery from the pandemic is not music to anyone ears, especially not the working class Black people who have a really hard time these last few years.

Biden is not the man who will get these people back on board.

For what its worth the reddit search function seemed to have functioned much better a decade ago.

The amount of spam and just downright completely irrelevant results that showed up regularly in searches there the last few years has been ridiculous. I think it changed around the time they took away being able to see how many upvotws and downvotes a comment had totally, which I do still think is a real shame they took that away.

" kike" pretty antiquated antisemitic slur but still finds its use amongst the acient and the young neo nazi crowd.

I'd say Angela Davis is pretty well known. She was part of the reason why the FBI made COININTELPRO.

You should read up on her. She's had a wild life.

while I agree U.N. isn't very effective at preventing conflict, its still an international forum that large countries can use to exert power.

Theres a reason why France, UK, USA always vote lock in step at the security council. America will never willingly leave the U.N. as long as it helps them wield and influence power globally.

Germans were not prepared for winter fighting and had stretched their supply lines thin. It was more then just the cold that stopped the Germans.

Fun fact, Nazi Germany was more reliant on horses then armour throughout ww2 for transport.

Public opinion to the contrary, so great was the dependence of the Nazi Blitzkrieg upon the horse that the numerical strength of German Army horses maintained during the entire war period averaged around 1,100,000. Of the 322 German Army and SS divisions extant in November 1943, only 52 were armored or motorized. Of the November 1944 total of 264 combat divisions, only 42 were armored or motorized. The great bulk of the German combat strength—the old-type infantry divisions—marched into battle on foot, with their weapons and supply trains propelled almost entirely by four-legged horsepower. The light and mountain divisions had an even greater proportion of animals, and the cavalry divisions were naturally mainly dependent on the horse

That said, the Soviets being invaded was the decisive factor in the war. The invaded will always fight harder then the invader. For the most part anyways.

The Germans were already loosing by 1943, wasting tons of resources doing the holocaust as well. The Western allies opening up the Italian and French fronts only increased the speed of this.

I've heard some Ukranians refer to this as their own" great patriotic war ." And its true.

This war will define this generation of Ukranians like how that war defined those generations who fought it, and made a legacy for those who would come after them.

Israel has been a fairly large supporter of Ukraine in terms of equipment and ammunition and such.

Can I ask where you read this? That seems blatantly untrue.

https://kyivindependent.com/on-support-for-ukraine-israel-performs-precarious-balancing-act-between-security-interests/

Isreal's lack of overt support to Ukraine has been a ongoing issiue from early on of the 2022 invasion. Western nations were also asking Isreal to help and they still refused.

Also, if you assume war materials are finite resources... Israel is going to be less likely to share if they have an active war on their own home turf.

Well the Isrealis are almost out of certain types of ammo and needed the Americans to drop them literal tons to keep the fighting going.

The Americans are the ones supplying both Ukraine and Isreal, Isreal had the chance to help supply Ukraine before but that chance is out the window now.

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like Ford's future is going to be a struggle.

They completely killed making any cars smaller then Trucks or SUV's in North America and I really hope it comes back to fuck them.

I'm not crying that they won't make Ford Focuses anymore or whatever, but pretty much only people left to buy affordable, small cars from anymore is the Japanese and Koreans.

Good riddance to Ford. They long outlived their usefulness.
