With all the PC-shit, inability to say what you want without being afraid for your job and even for your safety, self-censorship by companies puling down classic movies, constant need to agree with what the media presents as the "majority way to think", are we sure it is no Soviet Union that won the cold war?
Who won the cold war?
- Thread starter fall
- Start date
Yep, but in the past these things are what defined the life in Soviet Union. Now it is here.
I was just trying to explain this to my wife... She's apathetic with the news and doesn't care. Fuck me.
Rest assured it wasn't these dick-licking assclowns:
That6's an insult to dick lickers everywhere - especially the ladies...
Why does one of those cazzatores look like Adam Richman?
Who won the last cold war, that's easy: The People's Republic of China. American conglomerates didn't hesitate to invest in the dictatorship - nobody cared about Tienanmen Square.

What you refer to as the "PC-shit" are things that all point to real issues in our society(ies). We focus on certain things because there are problems in our society around those issues. Whether the particular measure or self sensorship or whatever is the appropriate answer in a particular case certainly can be debated. But behind those debates there are real issues around change, around social progress, around justice, around equality. It's not about a "majority way to think". It is sometimes about social pressure for certain changes though. And any time there is change there is resistance to change. Even if that change is needed.
The point is you have to be careful what you say. That's what happens in a cancel culture society. Aiming to kill free speech, never mind that, not saying anything at all can get you in trouble(Jessica Mulroney). It's funny that groups on the left are crying about facism when they are the ones promoting it. With social media now censoring people that they don't agree with or trying to eliminate people who don't support their political point of view. I agree there needs to be changes especially in the criminal justice system but not everything in society that's bad is is systemic.
China doesn't really have an ideology they're pushing anymore. It's scary and perhaps an opportunity at the same time. China is just about making money with some nationalism thrown in. Most of China's neighbors view it as a threat. They like making money doing business with China, but keep a close eyes on its nationalistic ambitions.
