>Спикер Госдумы Вячеслав Володин заявил, что в Думе готовы обсудить идею запрета на анонимность в интернете для борьбы с пропагандой насилия и экстремизма после стрельбы в казанской школе.
А теперь анекдот дня:
— Дети, а что произойдёт, если пробивающее любой щит копьё ударит в непробиваемый щит?
Класс молчит, потом Вовочка поднимает руку.
— Да, Вовочка?
— Анонимность в интернете запретят, Марья Ивановна.
— Почему???
— Это мой отец всё время говорит — у нас вначале какая-то непонятная хуйня происходит, а потом анонимность в интернете запрещают.

Пару слов о сегодняшнем колумбайнере.
Специально из-за этой истории послушал что же вещают пропагандоны на всю страну. Ни одна мразь в упор не желает замечать, что он не пошёл ни в торговый центр, ни в кинотеатр, ни в детский сад, ни куда угодно, где больше потенциальных фрагов и меньше закрытых дверей. Он пошёл в место, с которым, вероятнее всего, связана самая большая психологическая травма в его жизни - в "родную" школу. В место, где полусумасшедшие климактерички с нищенской зарплатой вымещают свою злость за свою зафейленную жизнь на случайно подвернувшихся детях. (Есть, конечно и учителя по призванию, но их меньшинство и речь совсем не про них.) В место, где толпа гопников пиздит омежку просто потому что, а потом этого же омежку "разбирают" на педсовете. В место, сочетающее в себе все недостатки старой советской и современной европейской систем образования. Но это всё хуйня, мелочи не заслуживающие внимания. На самом-то деле во всем виноваты компьютерные игры, социальные сети и оружейные магазины.
Насилие и убийства - это плохо по дефолту. Массовые убийства непричастных - плохо всегда без каких-либо оправданий. Вопрос в том, когда уже, наконец, будут разбираться с первопричиной вместо того, чтобы расхлёбывать последствия. Российский выпускник по окончании школы получает не только аттестат, но и ПТСР. Государственные школы, в подавляющем большинстве своём являются фабрикой по производству психологических травм, которую обязаны пройти все без исключения. Вот о чём должны, наконец, задуматься сволочи в дорогих пиджачках на мягких стульях из итальянской кожи, а не об усложнении доступа граждан к оружию.

Passport picture scam?
For the past few days, I am getting quite a few emails from random people with the subject "here is my passport picture" (or similar wording) with a passport picture attached.
It is happening enough that got me concerned.
Anyone knows what this is about?
Any specific country/locale?

What has gone wrong?🤦♂️
P.S.

Nobody invited you to comment here, and nobody keeps you here by force. So why won't you just fuck yourself and go away, rather than continuing to whine when I'm pointing out your ignorance? 🤔

Russell didn't "have thoughts". Russell physically was in RSFSR in 1920 with a delegation of Western communists, talked to Lenin, spent weeks there and wrote what he saw and heard on the ground.
So I'm sorry but you're the one "having thoughts" here, not Russell.
His account was harshly criticised when he published it. Even though few of his fellow travellers argued with his factual record, they argued he missed "optimism".
He was right, ultimately.
@fenix @deathtoamerica @silverspookgames
Note he wrote all that already in 1920 (!), and predicted collapse of the whole project. It took most communists in the West another 10-15 years to lose illusions, and some less perceptive thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre still defended Stalinism in 50's.

Recommended reading - first-hand witness testimony from 1920, British communist Bertrand Russell describing his experience with Soviet "communism" after visit in RSFSR.

And in "sparking the revolution" in 30's they failed as the border was leaky and anyone who had slightest chance to escape from the "Soviet paradise", escaped so Poland was full of Soviet refugees who had first-hand testimonies on how the life looked like.
@fenix @deathtoamerica @silverspookgames
> Poland was better off under the Soviet Union
Yes, and this is why they needed to falsify a referendum (1946) and elections (1947), and then suppress mass workers protests breaking out basically every 5 years, until Soviet collapse in 1989.
I don't even mention de-legalisation of the right to strike, but that was a well known feature of Soviet workers' rights package 😂
@fenix @deathtoamerica @silverspookgames
An full-scale military invasion is *not* "sparking revolution", it's full-scale military invasion, genius.
This prompt replication of imperial expansion by Bolshevik was subject to harsh criticism from other communist movements in Russia (SR, anarchists), so Bolsheviks just liquidated them too.
After 1920 defeat they tried to "spark revolution" in neighbouring countries by sabotage and propaganda for all 30's but also failed.
@deathtoamerica @silverspookgames
So just to remind you, there was no Soviet Union in 1917, not in 1920.
There was Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) and a number of countries that regained independence after WW1 and collapse of Russian Empire, including Poland, Baltics, Belarus, Ukraine etc.
RSFSR was pursuing an aggressive military expansion to "bring revolution" to these countries and was only stopped at Warsaw in 1920 when it signed Riga Peace with Poland.
@deathtoamerica @silverspookgames
> we will not allow you onto our land to fight the Nazis
Granted that only in 1920 Soviet Union invaded Poland (and failed) it was rather understandable decision. That would be equivalent with voluntarily accepting Soviet occupation.
> Poland stole land in the Polish-Soviet War
You should really educate yourself about the events after WW1 rather than blindly repeat Soviet and now Kremlin propaganda.
