What I'll never be able to understand is why people seem to think that stuff like this is going to convince anybody to change their views on... well, anything, really.

All of this stuff is stuff that we've heard repeated ad nauseam in school, in educational video cassette children's cartoons, in political commentary on TV and in print editorials, in public speeches by government officials, in conversations with people we know, and so forth. Belief in the separation of powers and checks-and-balances being effective as implemented in a liberal democracy, is such an ingrained part of mainstream understanding of politics literally since early childhood, that anyone who believes to the contrary must necessarily already be familiar with the arguments for it, and have rejected them.

I bet this person drinks skim milk too lmao

Beautifully said my friend

I just want a picture of a got dang hot dog

"Boot brain" as in a fondness for licking boots due to a lifetime of propaganda...?

On the left it says something like "Soviet authority will only last two weeks!" and then on the right it says "15 YEARS - the USSR is finally established on the path to socialism"

It isn't really cursive Cyrillic so much as just italic Cyrillic. I struggled with reading italics for a good while too, but eventually you get the hang of it.

Edit: Oh and the heads on the left are labeled "monarchist", "cadet", "eser", and "menshevik".
