*DAMN R6 Forum

To day is May Day were Worker's the whole world over protest against the global elite and party. Kinda Like a worldwide Labour Day. So in honor of this holiday I give you the sickle and hammer! Sorry if anyone finds this offensive, I am just being a crazy Russian!
btw I am not a communist ( I am a social democrat actually) I am against globilzation so I am being politically active on the forum. I would appreciate it if you did not delete this thread, but do what ya gotta do.(http://www.vintagepostcards.com/catalog/f/F9321.jpg)

am i the only one who thinks old russian propaganda art is extremely cool?

Russian propaganda is pretty fucking cool

wooohoo may! birthday on the 4th!! and SATs on the 4th as well.. woohoo....  :(

geek have a merry xmas...i mean birthday

Don't worry Cossak, you can blab on about any politics you like here (well, pretty much).

And globalization is cool because it rich Americans richer, w00t.

Globilzation make rich americns richer but poor americans poorer. Shrinks the middle class and expands the gap between rich and poor. All my opinion.

i thought that reganomics that did that
same with the bush tax cut, didnt we prove that trickle down econmics dont work already?

Voters have a very short memory.

Well American ones do. China (even though they do not vote) still remebers the Bombing of their embassy by America during Kosovo.

um, compared to reganomics, the bombing was fairly recent

Brain,

I'm probably one of 5 or less people on the forums here that can actually remember Ragenomics.  A few more probably know about it... the rest weren't even born.

LOL I may not have experienced reganomics, but I have definently experienced glasnost and prestoika! Tell me who on this forum has lived though that. 8)

can you please tell me what the hell that is, cossak i havent the slightest idea of what you are taking about

Personaly I don't really have an idea what either of them are talking about or have that came into this  :) :) :)

Lived through yes... experienced... not much first hand knowledge from me unless you count a few trips to Europe and having some Political Science classes in the mid-late 80's as an undergrad.

To make his post count go higher ;D
BTW, Glasnost and perestoika are the reforms on the communist system gorbehev made in the mid-80s. Help me out here Grift we both took political science!

what did they do? can you plz explain that?

Glasnost was a revolution in Russia in 1986. In that night, ppl were standing @ the appartment of Andrej Acharov in Gorki. In front of the door there was 1 KGB officer and 2 electricians. They set up a phone, a device which Andrej wasn't allowed 2 have since he was banned 2 Gorki. The electricians set the phone up and said there would be a phone call the next morning. And indeed, there was one. Gorbatsjov spoke 2 Andrej and said that Andrej could come back to Moskou. From that moment on, he was allowed 2 SPEAK FREELY! (a subject that the forums do not have, in my opnion!!!)
this is a major turining point in that time, so they gave it the name Glasnost.
Perestrojka = the reforming of the russian economics. First, Gorbatsjov was very suspicious about this, so he only allowed a bit more economic freedom. But later on, ppl started 2 turn against him, + the oil and gas prices dropped so the country had less benefit from export. The food prices in the stores kept increasing tho, in 1990 there was even a 'starvation winter'. He increased the amount of free economic stuff and so on, in March 1989 he even allowed free elections (!). From March the 25th the television even showed the population parliamentary debats/discussions, which actually was a discussion, unlike a couple of years be4, where it was already set up who was gonna do what, and when, regardless what the outcome of the debats/discussions said. That is what perestrojka means. The slow increasing freedom for ppl 2 elect ppl and in economis spheres.
