Yeah, and I was wondering if this was a "commie democrats" thing. Russia isn't my first association, or even my second. He was even from Ukraine.
No, Putin is shit and I hope he ends up in the Hague where he belongs.
Thank you for confirming that. I know it's a bitch when people assume shit, but you know, you can never know. So, thanks. Even if you are Russian. Or rather especially if you are. Like I doubt it, from context, but if you were.
Khrushchev may have been originally Ukrainian, but that doesn't really mean that much.
Who the fuck wouldn't associate Khrushchev with Russia or the Cold War in general? Who would be the "we" in that if not Soviet Russia? Stop writing in Bad Faith. And I capitalise that on purpose.
Because it's an incantation to you?
I'd be inclined to respond and explain further, but I don't think learning and understanding is the point of this exchange anymore. Bye.
Let me help you learn something. If I posted about a random person who know-one knows, saying something random, that would be "without context". However if I posted a picture of Obama saying "we will find Osama Bin Laden", you probably wouldn't say "there's no context we can't know who the 'we' is in that quote", would you?
So I'm puzzled why you'd make such a bad faith argument over this. Did you know really not know who Khrushchev was?
