      I even kind of threw them a bone and said that “the criminals” running modern day Russia are explicitly not communists so would have different goals. And I was told that they are “basically the same”

      Every day the world tries its hardest to drive me insane

        ah, that type. those sorts believe communism is some kind of asiatic racial trait. that’s why it doesnt matter to them that russia isnt communist anymore, because you see, they’re still russian, and that’s the same thing.

          If I had a nickel for every time I saw a reference to the penguins in the first madagascar movie in the last 24 hours I’d have two nickels

          Which isn’t a lot, but it is weird it happened twice, especially considering if you expanded the timeframe from 24 hours to 5 years, I would instead have 3 nickels

        “Psh, you think he’s beholden to the Soviets? Anyone with eyes in their head can see he’s clearly a puppet of Tojo and the empire of the rising sun- that is, if the Ottomans didn’t get to him first.”

      I’ve met plenty of boomers who forgot that they won the cold war and destroyed the lives of many millions of working people. I’m absolutely positive that Trump has also forgotten that the USSR no longer exists. It’s not impossible that he’s still carrying out his orders.

      Edit: …and that shit would be so funny.
