Stalin was a misunderstood mass murderer of mostly people who deserved to die.

But wait, there's more. It took Comrade Stalin only 5 years to industrialize the Soviet Union. When Stalin inherited the Soviet Union, Russian peasants slaved on farms and herded cattle. By the time he left it to his successors, Russia had nukes and had won a world war.

one nice little story from a survivor in the countryside:

a mother chains her son to the stove while he whimpers, his sis tries to bring him a small portion of bread, the mother stops her "no, only one of my children will survive"

the boy dies the next day, when the undertaker comes, he takes the mother as well, though she is alive, he figures he will save an extra trip
**** those bougie bitches

Elph = Capitalist scum

N.B.A. arenas will be used as polling stations as part of a plan to get back on the court.

Quote:
The N.B.A. and its players’ union announced a plan to convert league arenas — provided they are under team ownership control — into polling locations for the November election as part of an agreement to resume the playoffs on Saturday, officials said in a joint statement on Friday.

“We had a candid, impassioned and productive conversation yesterday between N.B.A. players, coaches and team governors regarding next steps to further our collective efforts and actions in support of social justice and racial equality,” said the statement signed by the league’s commissioner, Adam Silver, and Michele Roberts, the executive director of the players’ union.

The announcement came two days after N.B.A. players staged a dramatic work stoppage in response to the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wis., on Sunday. Some staffers in the N.B.A.’s league office also chose not to work on Friday to spend time on social causes instead, though it was not clear exactly how many people participated in the action.

The joint plan also includes, according to the statement, the creation of “a social justice coalition, with representatives from players, coaches and governors, that will be focused on a broad range of issues, including increasing access to voting, promoting civic engagement and advocating for meaningful police and criminal justice reform.”

Establishing more polling locations was a key goal of More Than A Vote, the initiative led by Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and other athletes aimed at protecting voter rights and increasing civic engagement, particularly among Black people.

The National Hockey League also announced plans to resume its playoffs on Saturday, and W.N.B.A. games will be played again Friday.
