Better shot.

Every communist has a favourite crop. For Khrushchev it was corn. For Lukashenko it is the potato.

    I am neither with the leftists nor the rightists. But with the people against those who rob and deceive them

    • Alexander Lukashenko (italics added by me for emphasis)

    in an apparent riposte to [Guido Westerwelle] branding him "Europe's last dictator," said: "Better to be a dictator than gay."

    “I forgive women for their lesbianism, but I will never in my lifetime forgive men for being gay,” he added “A woman becomes a lesbian only if we men are so wretched.”

    as an enby, I can kinda tolerate queerphobic revolutionaries from centuries past, but this was said like 30 years after stonewall. not being queerphobic is a requirement for being communist past like 1990. Not to derail your veggie post, I'm a potato fan myself, but it rubs me the wrong way when people call those who would prefer me deported/jailed/worse "communists"

    edit: new one

    Jews were able to make the world remember [the Holocaust], and the whole world bows to them, being afraid of saying one wrong word to them
