Thanks you for this, I bought the book because I really wanted a biography of Stalin that was unbiased and didn’t have a negative (or positive) interpretation from the get go. The nuanced portrait is much more interesting to understand the complexity behind the man then a diatribe or a glorious eulogy could be. 😊
The fact that Africans were rescued from cannibalism should matter And no one has ever been telling the truth about history instead of what you prefer to hear .
Scientifically it's called The Big 5 Conference of Interest .Use The Science of Corruption in Governments ,to understand the problem . The fact that they still use wages slavery proves what a tyrant the Christian church is !
As a middle eastern i find it offensive the blame is west more so than Middle Easterns who commit the violence by their owns hands against their neighbors . middle easterns stop blaming others accept responsibility & west needs to stop thinking they can change that. has experienced violence from ancient times through to the modern era. This region’s deep-rooted tribalism has been a fundamental issue. It’s important to recognize that the conflicts and challenges are not solely the result of Western influence or the existence of Israel. Even in the absence of these external factors, tribal dynamics alone have historically driven and could continue to drive violence in the region
Pétain was a bad general in 14 18 Capitulare at Verdun in 1916 on two occasions and a notorious defeatist in 1918 on 4 occasions Deposed of his title of generalissimo in March 1918 at the interallied conference of Doullens. Between the two wars, 1920-1939, despite the military positions he occupied, including Minister of War, Petain did everything to strip France of its military alliances in the East, such as with Russia, Yuslavia, Czechoslovakia and Poland. Petain prevented the Maginot Line from being completed in 1927, again in 1932 and especially in 1934 as Minister of War Petain will again refuse Daladier to come on January 14, 1940. He will always refuse as cowardly a 3rd time, to the new head of Government Paul Reynaud on May 1, 1940 at Paul Reynaud's 2nd call on May 14, 1940 Petain said to his ordering officer "The situation seems lost, I accept!" and will arrive on May 17, 1940 in Paris with a cowardly refusal to occupy the Ministry of Defense that the Reynaud Government logically offers him, because Petain has already occupied this position in the year 1934 and for more than one career soldier it is natural to expect him to defend his homeland since he is paid for that. Resuming his 14-18 defeatist posture Petain on June 17, 1940 hastened to lay down his arms by asking for a dishonorable armistice from the enemy.
in my father's home country of Sri Lanka, the legacy of british colonialism was more than a quarter century of violent civil war. Thanks Britain. i count myself as an unwanted waste product of british imperialism.
Aye, Don't forget the incredible pressure the Democrats were under by the Republican right since Reagan. This forced the Democrats to compromise in order to accomplish anything. There are solutions to this, but the Democrats are unable to implement these policy solutions due to Republican political obstruction and vilification.

The main and decisive factor in the collapse of the Soviet Union was the struggle for power between Gorbachev and Yeltsin. The Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, Boris Yeltsin, most actively contributed to the collapse of the united country, because he really wanted to overthrow the President of the USSR Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev. And for this he entered into a secret conspiracy with the Balts. On January 13, 1991, he arrived in the Estonian capital, where he held negotiations with them. In Tallinn, the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR signed a completely illegitimate agreement with the Estonian SSR, Latvian SSR and Lithuanian SSR, according to which the RSFSR allegedly recognizes the Baltic republics as independent states. Later, on December 8, 1991, in Belarus, in the government sanatorium "Viskuli", Boris Yeltsin initiated the signing of an agreement on the creation of the Union of Independent States and the liquidation of the USSR. Although initially neither Kravchuk nor Shushkevich wanted to sign the Belovezhskaya Agreement at the meeting.
19:10 "Neoliberal is was profoundly appealing to those... down low... To those on the... New Left." 😅 Okay, bud. I haven't heard this much BS coming out of one mouth since that David Brooks TED talk. This guy is a human mayonnaise stain.
Claiming that neoliberalism has fallen does not make it so. It shuffles on like a lifeless zombie devouring all in its path, laying waste and impoverishing the world.
48:58 These people have a poor understanding of Nationalism. Of course Natalism is congruent with Nationalism (along with other forms of nativism). How this something not understood or need to be "explored?" To have a strong self-sufficient economy you need to have a strong birth rate to sustain the economic structures of your society and not rely on the foreign "other" to amend any labor gaps (that free market capitalism does because free market Capitalist Globalists see man as merely an economic unit to fulfill gaps in economies and see countries as nothing more than giant shopping malls for consumerism. whereas Nationalists see nations as organic communities that include race, ethnicity, culture, language, religion, identity to create a collective organic community. and the economy is the serve the nation. not the nation serving the economy).
You're trying to claim the contradiction is that nationalism being xenophobic ironically takes foreign ideas? This is the best you got? Who cares? Yes, they're not all the same. There are some xenophobic nativist that won't take some idea that is based upon xenophobic nativism like protectionism. All groups have contradictions. Xenophiles will worship the other but then have xenophobic ideas that contradict their ideas in certain ways too.
How about simple terms of Portugal like WW2 Germany were a Fascist state and many Russians had a huge hate for anyone from NATO but above all Fascists. So from being any opportunity to diminish the West but above all end Fascism. For the independence fighters they had no option but to go with communism, this was the only way to fight Fascism and keep control of the land by force, surely none of them wanted a Republic so as to ensure no race bias elections (this actually happens in most countries that the majority were farmers and minority army forces now fight any democratic elected government with civil war) just look at ex French lands (not all but some). Now we also have to look at racism faced not just at home but specially in Europe, remember this was a time after WW2, in 1937 everyone loved Hitler including EU and USA some countries were so under the "Theory of evolution" bull that they even had humans Zoos filled with inferior races (this was common thinking back then now imagine how this translated in to a mix or black kid in Europe and above all how many miss-treated Africans worldwide. Knowing Portugal was fascist during WW2 they still not take axes side of the fight remaining neutral but letting the USA and UK use Acores as air base and supplying raw materials to help UK and USSR makes Russians real back stabbers. Guess Germany should have accepted Franco's help and then things would have been very different but then again can't expect much logic from racism
I reject the hegemonic power play by the China as that was Qing Manchu empire and China was merely just part of it. Korea also was force to act as vassal state but they never accepted Manchu as hegemonic power.
My understanding is Kennedy was okay with the idea of beginning a withdrawal but with the huge caveat that the war was going well. Unfortunately, as we all now know, the war was never going well and exactly ten years later, we turned tail and pulled out. South Vietnam fell to the communists and no dominoes fell. I read recently that in 1961 General Douglas Macarthur told Kennedy the domino theory was, "ridiculous." He knew that part of the world pretty well and he was right. Those countries all look alike only to someone sitting over here. Up close, they're separate entities.

In my humble opinion, Chiang Kai-shek did not transform Taiwan into today's affluent and democratic society but his son - Chiang Ching-kuo did the work of transformation. After 1949 while in Taiwan, CKS basically is a broken man and he is looking for a successor for his shrinking government. Mei-ling is an ambitious woman with connections to the United States which is the only country able to keep KMT regime on life support but Chiang picked Ching-kuo instead which is a wise decision.
