Despite jerking each other off about leftist "theory" and how deep and thoughtful they all are, commies really don't have any beliefs beyond "west bad" and reflexively opposing literally everything western nations do
>The two psychological tendencies that underlie modern leftism we call “feelings of inferiority” and “oversocialization”. Feelings of inferiority are characteristic of modern leftism as a whole, while oversocialization is characteristic only of a certain segment of modern leftism; but this segment is highly influential.
>By “feelings of inferiority” we mean not only inferiority feelings in the strict sense but a whole spectrum of related traits; low self-esteem, feelings of powerlessness, depressive tendencies, defeatism, guilt, self-hatred, etc. We argue that modern leftists tend to have some such feelings (possibly more or less repressed) and that these feelings are decisive in determining the direction of modern leftism.
>When someone interprets as derogatory almost anything that is said about him (or about groups with whom he identifies) we conclude that he has inferiority feelings or low self-esteem.
>Many leftists have an intense identification with the problems of groups that have an image of being weak (women), defeated (American Indians), repellent (homosexuals) or otherwise inferior. The leftists themselves feel that these groups are inferior. They would never admit to themselves that they have such feelings, but it is precisely because they do see these groups as inferior that they identify with their problems. (We do not mean to suggest that women, Indians, etc. ARE inferior; we are only making a point about leftist psychology.)
>Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hateWestern civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist’s real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful.
I'm sorry longpostbot, I had to go all out... Just this once. That is a lie, I really wanted to post more, but I'd just end up posting the whole manifesto
I was thinking of paragraph 50 but the rest is decent too:
50. The conservatives are fools: They whine about the decay of traditional values, yet they enthusiastically support technological progress and economic growth. Apparently it never occurs to them that you can’t make rapid, drastic changes in the technology and the economy of a society without causing rapid changes in all other aspects of the society as well, and that such rapid changes inevitably break down traditional values.
51. The breakdown of traditional values to some extent implies the breakdown of the bonds that hold together traditional small-scale social groups. The disintegration of small-scale social groups is also promoted by the fact that modern conditions often require or tempt individuals to move to new locations, separating themselves from their communities. Beyond that, a technological society HAS TO weaken family ties and local communities if it is to function efficiently. In modern society an individual’s loyalty must be first to the system and only secondarily to a small-scale community, because if the internal loyalties of small-scale communities were stronger than loyalty to the system, such communities would pursue their own advantage at the expense of the system.
52. Suppose that a public official or a corporation executive appoints his cousin, his friend or his co- religionist to a position rather than appointing the person best qualified for the job. He has permitted personal loyalty to supersede his loyalty to the system, and that is “nepotism” or “discrimination,” both of which are terrible sins in modern society. Would-be industrial societies that have done a poor job of subordinating personal or local loyalties to loyalty to the system are usually very inefficient. (Look at Latin America.) Thus an advanced industrial society can tolerate only those small-scale communities that are emasculated, tamed and made into cowtools of the system

Socialists are way worse than garden-variety fascists. Fascism states its desire for autocratic rule enforced by violence without justification or rationalisation. It's a simple system, akin to a mafia. The goings on of its citizens is not important as long as it doesn't challenge the mafia.
Socialism has the pretense of benevolence, so when their non-functioning economic policies deteriorates society further and further, increasingly innocent dissidents are punished harder and harder, and they go to increasingly depraved lengths to maintain the facade. They do this because they genuinely believe in their ideals, that the end justifies the means, and they have to crack a few eggs to make an omelet.
It's basically CS Lewis' quote about robber barons and idealists.
This is why the USSR crumbles as soon as you introduce glasnost and perestroika, and it's how you end up with China and North Korea if you never do so. In contrast, society had never changed much under Franco or Pinochet, and when they died Spain and Chile just democratised themselves.
The more outside the mainstream a group is and the less institutional and popular support that group has the less mutually intelligible the rhetoric is with the general public. Any normal person that reads that will be baffled while if they read neoliberal posts they'll have perfect understanding of the tropes and cliches. It shows how insular commies have become and how much they have to advantage themselves linguistically in modern society, choosing all the terminology allowed in their small groups, to stand a chance against the neoliberal machine.
Finland also has concentrated autism power, which should not be underestimated. But between the two, Israel has a better track record and also nukes.
Finland does have the advantage that every single aspect of its military planning and strategy, down to base, weapons cache and runway location, was put together for the sole purpose of killing as many Russians as possible

idk if I were Finnish I would feel a lot better about "Russia can't attack us and if they try they'll get nuked" than "Russia doesn't feel like attacking us at the moment."
Last time gussylover69 checked Finland wasn't getting pumped with weapons by the whole of NATO with specific goal too provoke Russia, and didn't have state sponsored terrorist groups constantly attacking and bombing Russia-aligned territories. Why would Russia care about invading Finland exactly?
Hillary 2024 is as likely as hohols getting anywhere near Crimea ever again
Ok, I'll try with an allegory there is a village 40 people and 1 bear lives there. One day the bear mauls one person. Years pass one day the bear attacks again and brutally mauls another person, he loses one of his legs. As a person of the village, who is the neighbour of the bear, what is the best action you can do for self-presevation? Just hoping that the bear won't target you specifically, hoping that he won't care to maul you? Or actually joining forces with the other people of the village to find a solution to prevent the bear from attacking you or someone else in the village?
You're dumbing down geopolitics too a "there's an animal attack", gussylover69 don't think this needs a lengthy rebuttal. Putin just wants himself and people close too him too make money, just like every single other politician in the world. He isn't a bear hungry for some human legs. Go vote Hillary 2024
the allegory is from the point of view of the person, whatever the reasons of the bear for acting how it does, the people really just want to not be the next one mauled, since they learned by seeing the other people mauled by the bear, that the bear is a threat to their safety. And safety is a pretty important priority for people.
