The US has a history of this: it used biological weapons in Korea in the 50s and lied about it for decades.

And a history of using them against its own people, domestically, for that matter.

What, we’re supposed to remove UK state-affiliated media articles about German state intelligence assessments?

This is one of bourgeois ideology’s last defenses: apathy.
That all the other systems are just as bad.
That it’s just “human nature.”
That there is no alternative.

The SARS-CoV-2 gain of function research was going on under Fauci’s watch.

Jeffrey Sachs:

• New Yorker, 2023: Mad Scientists - Nowhere is the lab-leak debate more personal than among the experts investigating the origins of COVID
• Consortium News, 2024: What the US Might Owe the World for Covid-19 - A U.S.-funded laboratory origin of Covid-19 would certainly constitute the most significant case of governmental gross negligence in history

Wow, I wonder what went on there…

Declassified CIA report:

Even in Stalin’s time there was collective leadership. The Western idea of a dictator within the Communist setup is exaggerated. Misunderstandings on that subject are caused by lack of comprehension of the real nature and organization of the Communist power structure. Stalin, although holding wide powers, was merely the captain of a team and it seems obvious that Khrushchev will be the new captain.

A lot of the cold war propaganda about the USSR turned out to be bullshit, now that US & Soviet archives have been released, as contemporary Western academic historians will tell you, like Domenico Losurdo and Grover Furr.

This is a good example of one of things people hate about lemmy.

Okay. You know where the exit is.

Communism fan boying, implicit denial of genocides committed by communist powers, out in the open on the front page.

What communist “genocides”? This one? Or this one[1][2]? Or this one?

People ask the strangest things of pseudonymous internet randos instead of subject-matter experts.

I urge you to read about Mr. Jones

There have been millions of Mr. Joneses so you’ll need to be more specific. In the meantime,

Regarding gulags, it’s the same as telling me about concentration camps built by the Nazis.

I see you are well prepared with communist materials, it’s the same as entering communist class in the Soviet Union and expecting they will share the truth.

Those aren’t arguments, they’re vague, empty rhetoric.

I don’t think federation vs centralization is the primary differentiator. I think corporate vs non-profit/ad-free/donation-only/volunteerism is. Our marketing budget is goose egg. It’s all word-of-mouth.

This person keeps coming back to waste our time, it seems. Previously. Previously.
