Didn't realize that MoA wrote for Monthly Review, an explicitly marxist publication. MoA is quite cagy about his politics outside of geopolitical analysis, but the materialistic lens is quite prominent so I'm not surprised. I'm hoping he can remain cool and not go boomer mode on social stuff, I'm glad to find he's likely a marxist. It's so rare and refreshing to find hardline anti-NATO boomers who don't have brainworms writing in English.

Hersh's original timeline did have holes, as Moon of Alabama pointed out. He had the big picture correct (it was US operatives with navy vessels) but the specifics were wrong.

Most nazis the soviets pressed into service in a siberian gulag

How's the unity going NATO?

Yeah, I'll admit this was an Americanism of mine and I acted like a burger here. In America, poles are not really discriminated against and are basically Irish-American Whites indistinguishable from other whites beyond incomprehensible surname spelling. I hadn't considered that it was much worse in Europe

Alright I'll do 30 lashes and never again drop the p-slur

True. Maybe I'll avoid in the future. Everyone reading know I'm using it lovingly for Poland actually being based for once

an old timey 1800s one for a group that's considered white now. It's a slur in the way guido, wop or dago are. This house was built on ironic racism against Irish, Italians and Poles!

This meme even looks like a Pole lmao

edit: I have been informed he actually looks like a normal Polish guy

Yeah Internet Utopianism was very widespread back in the day, we really thought it would enlighten humanity and bring peace on earth and all that. Total cope on our part, the internet has many upsides and downsides but a lot more negatives IMO
