I'm pretty sure there was advertising even at the height of the USSR?

Fuck I was right!



They where forced to do ads lol.

They did for the same reason our companies do it.

Illusion of abundance and choice. It's been scientifically proven people are happier if they see ads. That's y even paid services do a 30 second trailer real or ad clip.

Literally just necessary to keep ppl sedated on materialism [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Even when ur too poor to actually buy anything.

Part of it is conditioning. Literally peoples brains will short circuit without the *ad*itional stimulus. Pun intended.

Dude we are headed towards the most dystopia nightmare.

Beyond our imagination.

I'm fucking stoked.

Christmas came early for me in my general acceptance of this new reality.

one of the craziest things i think is that kids after 2000s stoped watching shows that kids pre 2000s watched.

Like, cartoons became so flacid and all about loud noises and bright colors. After Dora the explora, dora the explora basically became the standard for "The highest quality" a childrends property needs to be.

I was a kid in the 70s and we watched shit from the 1900s

felix the cat, betty boop and shit.

We had amazing new marvel comics, but we still liked the old black and white superman too.

now kids hate anyone 10 years older than them. They cant relate on ANY level.

I agree, anyone over 40 is dead weight and anyone in their 30s is going to have a really bad time in their 40s

adults here think a 20 year old and a 40 year old cant relate.

It's so awesome to see you all live in such a hellish nightmare.

I actually look really young for my age. Even when I'm doing the skelator Kellyanne thing.

It's only skin deep tho.

Butt yeah - right circumstances - genetics u can easily like really live into ur 90s... not like subsist or scrape by...

Butt that is not the fate of more than 90% of ppl. Partly because of their own dharma.

I want to be clear I'm not pro communism in any way


Communism is still a shit show without g-d and christ.

I just enjoy the contrast with the capitalist pigs. BTW u should not eat pork if you can help it. Don't starve yourself needlessly tho and enjoy it if you must. Still don't recommend it.

Looks like this page got off track.

This war has the potential to be so harmful to Russia, possibly even to the extent of destroying them as a rival. All without the cost of American lives, and at a massive fucking discount as what we're providing to Ukraine isn't the expensive shit.

Basically, in geopolitical terms, we won the lottery. Our rival stepped on a fucking landmine, and Republicans are trying to disarm it for them. How is that not borderline treason? What happens if China figures out they can simply buy Republican politicians like Russia did, and use them to sabotage our country's interests?

Not wanting to spend massive amounts of money on a war does not equal support for Russia.

Yeah, we have Russia against the ropes geopolitically. We've done it without spilling American blood (mostly).

But still.

A lot of people are just tired of the bullshit.

Can we go 2 fucking seconds without having our fat ignorant noses in some other country's business?

We always have to be fucking with somebody.

You know why those peaceful European countries score so high on the happiness index?

Because they don't fuck with others.

They ride bikes and eat crossant.

I want to ride bike and eat crossant.
