  This is what the steel factories behind the Urals were for, the incoming Nazi invasion was secondary

  Oh trust me I know, the War in the Ukraine is what really got my shit together. Thankfully I was listening to the Deprogram and started thinking more globally when it went down. Without being on Lemmy and learning the Geopolitics behind the War in the Ukraine, I'd probably be defending it, as at first glance you'd want to side with the defending country. Thank God I found Lemmygrad, right before it though so it was a close call. I do sympathize with western leftists and libs a bit, being raised as one, I'm just trying to get my sister to see the bigger picture. It's just a matter of time and effort, eh.

  Another thing too is Western "leftists" are used to THEIR government being evil and false promises, so it's hard for them to conceive any government with good intentions. Now if they have even read some theory or looked at the CPC, out of the news, they would understand it is under control of the proletariat, but then they wouldn't be western "leftists". We just need to earn disgruntled Westerners' trusts in governments, this is also why most of them are anarchists.

  This reminds me of that clip of a guy getting booed at a libertarian convention for wanting them to have drivers licenses.
