I’m gonna name my aunts Vladimiranda and Kalininancy.
What did Malenkov do wrong? Genuinely asking, my post-Stalin Soviet history is abyssmal.
oh he didn't do anything wrong because he basically didn't do anything, he was just "officially" in charge until Khrushchev took over in a few weeks after Stalin kicked the bucket. maybe some will say that's better than Gorby lol
Owning the libs by giving your daughter a badass Soviet-inspired name
Fuck that dude, I just find Peterson's thought process there pretty ridiculous lmao
Wasn’t there a “Lenina” in Brave New World?
Stalynne could work too
Wasn’t there a “Lenina” in Brave New World?
Yes. I believe there was a bunch of people with the surname Trotsky, too
Yeah, it's basically just Makayla, which is a perfectly cromulent name
It's basically just a weird spelling of Michaela, and pretty much every spelling of Michaela is weird anyway.
Imagine choosing an academic field of study for reasons based on trying to understand the Soviet Union and never even cracking open any marxist theory beyond the Communist Manifesto lmfao
Lobster Man is the quintessential reddit bro. All the trappings of intellectualism, none of the curiosity and academic rigor.
Like, the spelling is non-standard but it's a perfectly acceptable slavic feminine form of Michael.
Also imagine getting into psych for the communism and not like, getting to Lacan or Althusser (or you know, through State and Revolution)
What if he started as a grifter, trying to push socialism forward by making anti-communist ideologues look absurd and crazy. He was trying to go as far out there as he could, like "Lobsters prove communism is unnatural" and "Solzhenitsyn is an honest reporter of Soviet crimes and not a Fascist" . But he was corrupted by the CHUDs that kept giving him money, and his own fame. The internal conflicts and self-hatred caused him to turn to Benzos and flee back to his adopted home country of the Soviet Union.
Why would he name his daughter after someone he presumably doesn't like....?
Didn't he also get his experimental treatment for benzo addiction in some ex-soviet country?
I'm like 99% there aren't a lot of countries left on this world where he didn't get some experimental benzo addiction treatment
