US responsible for two-thirds of all military conflicts

[Ideologue]

Isn't it time that we did accept responsibility for our failure to impose our rule over all the Earth in 1945, though?

So you think Patton was right?

By 1945 the Soviet Union had done pretty much all of the good it was going to do in pressing the Western democracies into reform.  And it would have been the Boomers who had navigate the initial horrors of the post-Communist world, instead of us.  Win-win for me.

In addition, MacArthur, despite being wrong about practically every single thing he ever did (at least, in a strategic sense), was also right about crossing the Yalu.

Today I learned that Kinshasa has never recorded a temperature >100F. Surprising.

Surprising? African record-keeping isn't exactly stellar.

There is a Russian joke (which admittedly, sounds much better in Russian due to there being a word play): "What is it: a little bit funny and a little bit scary?" "Fucking a tiger".

It kinda describes Russian politics as well...

Soviet joke about soviet economy:

"They pretend to pay us, and we pretend to work."
