MacArthur was the rabid nuclear evangelist who needed to be reigned in from nuking the whole world and Truman was the one who decided to use it twice on civilian city centers.
Projection as usual by libs.
When the US nukes two cities, it’s “the only way to stop the war”, but when the USSR obtains nukes it’s “crazed mad men that will bring armagedden”
not to mention the usual orientalism that the eastern doesn’t have intelligence to invented anything so they need to copy the western tech.
everybody racist until ussr take the lead with the hydrogen bomb.
It’s the identical take to the modern China racism.
“There is no way that ‘subhuman easterners’ could ever attain the same level of technology as the West without stealing it.”
exactly, and guess what, china is speedrunning technological leadership. lmao, curious what they will say this time

The lib I work with has tried to have a serious discussion with me about Putin and whether or not he would be petty enough (should he lose the Ukraine war as the lib was expecting) to just start a nuclear war with us because he has nothing to lose. When Saudi Arabia started cosying up to China I asked him if he thinks we’d be petty enough to start a nuclear war with China, and he laughed and was like ‘no comment’. I promise 100% nothing got through to him, this guy believes everything the state department says (but he’s got good politics with regard to Palestine at least, but even then I have some minor doubts).

America nuke 🥰 (which were then used against civilians)
Soviet nuke 😡 (developed for self defense after US posturing)
Since when did the US have exclusive rights to nuclear bombs?
The Soviet Union stole the intellectual rights to nuclear power because the US made a copyright on those physics.
Also pay attention to how they intentionally drew Stalin as fat and unattractive as possible to the point it looks nothing like him. Everyone remembers Stalin’s infamous double chin and comical neck rolls, right?
My name is Joseph Jughashvili, but my friends call me JoJo.
I had an ordinary life as the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, until one day I developed a strange power…
I gave that power the name:
『 Ｉｒｏｎ Ｍａｎ 』!!
Man of steel would be better imo
You know, I thought about that but…
(too much reasoning for a throwaway jojoke)
There are two songs called Man of Steel, one by Meatloaf from 2003 that I felt was too recent to fit with Araki’s usual classic rock names and also (despite the name) didn’t reflect the right vibes, and the other one is from 1984 by Hank Williams Jr., a Republican country singer who also wrote “If the South Woulda Won” and I’ll be damned if I let Stalin’s stand name refer to song by a reactionary. The other one I considered was Iron Maiden, which would fit with a stand that was some kind nuke-shaped lump of metal looking thing, but naming it after a whole band feels less artful than picking a fitting song, and it’s also one extra step away from the obvious reference.
Whereas Iron Man hits the joke, even if it’s maybe too blunt, and the lyrics halfway work - Stalin as the man who foresaw a disaster coming, tried to get the liberal nations to listen but they wouldn’t, so instead he had to turn the USSR into a crushing steel machine. Plus, Iron Man is on the same Sabbath album as the song I would pick for the stand of Lenin, 『Ｔｈｅ Ｗｉｚａｒｄ』. Like, check those lyrics, it’s too perfect.
And then Trotsky’s would be 『Ｐｌａｎｅｔ Ｃａｒａｖａｎ』 again from the same album and it would just be a sci-fi looking flying armored train.
Oh it’s a song title thing.
The grammar in the title is the cherry on top. Reads like it was written by a 4 year old.
I think that you mean,
Grammar in title is cherry on top. Reads like it was written by 4 year old.
You’re right, my apologizes. I forgor Joe Biden banned prepositions in US.
It’s like they’re starting to outsource their work or something… and someone forgot to proof read…
Agreed, and is that style of thumbnail/preview pic standard for that channel? The annoying grammar and cookiecutter mobileshit game art style leads me to believe this channel is aiming their garbage at children and teenagers.
Yes, this channel is mass produced “edutainment” garbage designed to “teach” teenagers history through American propaganda.
Fucking hell, and those view counts. This is obscene. I don’t want to imagine how many unsuspecting kids and teens are out there growing up and stumbling on this brain-scrambling trash.
The insidious reality of propaganda. The children of the Hitler Youth were not to blame, as reactionaries know that if they can latch on and meld a person when they are young; then they will have a devote follower for decades to come.
How much do you think it costs the state department to quietly push content like that? Barely anything, but the return on investment is immense.
Go to their channel, they have hundreds of anti-communist, pro-west, pro-capitalist, reactionary videos that have tens of millions of views.
I knew I was right to block that channel all those years ago.
