    Urgh, I know libs who treat the Chernobyl series as being completely true and it’s the worst. Don’t think they’re so lost in the sauce that they’d believe HBO propaganda about Israel, at least.

      Never forget that Antonin Scalia cited 24 in defense of torture.

      I swear, libs legitimately cannot grasp the concept that made up fiction does not prove anything. It’s what happens when your ideology isn’t grounded in materialism.

      Watching that as a leftist was so weird because on the one hand it’s not the worst depiction of life in the soviet union and them responding to a disaster. But on the other hand, they had to stick in their little communism bad moments which I felt ruined the mood of the show at times. edgeworth-shrug

        Yeah, I especially like the guy who was only in the show to drink vodka and sarcastically say Communist things while being bureaucratically obstructive (which to be fair would be my job after the Revolution)
