"If we take profitability not from the point of view of individual enterprises or branches of production and not in terms of one year, but from the point of view of the entire national economy and in terms of, say, 10-15 years, which would be the only correct approach to the question, then the temporary and fragile profitability of individual enterprises or branches of production can in no way be compared with that higher form of lasting and permanent profitability which is given us by the actions of the law of the systematic development of the national economy and the planning of the national economy, sparing us from periodic economic crises, which destroy the national economy and cause enormous material damage to society, and ensuring the continuous growth of the national economy with its high rates.""
Economic problems of socialism in the USSR
I.V. Stalin



Well, and then came the Trotskyists, led by Khrushchev, the theory of Convergence, the Kosygin-Lieberman reforms, with dismal attempts to cross the hedgehog with the hedgehog, and the planned economy with self-calculation, when the plan in pieces and units of production began to be replaced by indicators in rubles - and the world's best socialist economy, the rate of growth and development of which no one has ever been able to overcome - sadly and surely came to an end.

And by the way -

mega-corporations, including transnational ones, work exactly the same way - according to socialist, planned methods of economic management. And individual divisions of TNCs do not pay each other in rubles, dollars or other currencies, but only in units of production. And some production units will turn out to be loss-making if they are transferred to self-sufficiency and self-financing. But the sly-ass bourgeois, who tricked the Khrushchev-Trotskyites into Convergence, did not tell them about it.

Well, and the current uneducated dilettantes, advocates of so-called liberal economics, who ruined the USSR in the "holy" 90s, were tricked like suckers - with manetarist theories, the invisible hand of the market, competition and the international division of labor. They forgot to tell the neophyte-school that all this shit hasn't worked for a long time - since the end of the 18th century, approximately. And the methods suitable for Liechtenstein or Burkina Faso are fundamentally unsuitable for ruling a superpower.

Do you know why today's faggots in power so zealously and everywhere install memorials to the so-called "victims of Stalin's repressions"? I didn't get it the first time either. Do you think they really suffer for the sheer number of great human sacrifices? They don't give a fuck a hundred fucking times over - just remember the cannibal quote about 30 extinct millions of those who didn't fit into the market.

Fuck no! All these monuments to the victims of socialist abortion, all these "walls of shit", they put up for themselves - under the sole slogan of inadmissibility of repetition. And they see perfectly well that on the memorial slabs their names are clearly visible through the surnames of these "victims", who are actually enemies of the people. And they are the first in line for the firing cellar.

The damned Communists left you a superpower and the world's second largest economy. Where is it, by the way? And what have you achieved in 30 years? Have you surpassed the Soviets in anything? Except for the presence of dollar billionaires, the number of officials and cops per capita?

You have a government that is an inefficient owner? And it should withdraw from economic management as much as possible. The invisible hand of the market will come and ruin everything by itself, and a kind uncle from the IMF will give money for it - that's your whole fucking paradigm. And the main thing is that you unpleasant bitches, schoolboys and dilettantes, do not know how, cannot and do not want to manage the state entrusted to you by the trusting people.

Everyone knows what happens when some cannot and others do not want to.

The 80th anniversary of the Victory in the Battle of Stalingrad. February 2, 1943.

In previous posts there were reports of the Kiev regional government about the delivery of meat in the first and second quarters of 1933. This report is interesting because at the height of the famine, that is, at a time when all the dogs were to be eaten, in the Kiev region there are tens of thousands of tons of cattle for delivery. Which had to be fed all winter and kept somewhere..... The amount of feed needed to keep pigs, I think, all imagine?

There were also sows, milk producing cows (reports on milk yield in the first half of 1933 are also given in the previous post), egg laying hens, sheep for wool etc. (you can also find those reports in the previous post).

Well, in order not to say that after the delivery of meat in the first quarter of 1933 the peasants had nothing left, here is the report of the Kiev regional administration on the delivery of meat for August 1933

Which shows that in August 1933, the peasants of the Kiev region, "finishing the last dogs", gave another 20418 quintals of live weight of livestock

And now the answers to the most common comments...

As I did not warn you about "...and my grandmother told me..." today it is one of the most frequent arguments against the Holodomor.

I respect all grandmothers in the world, and what they tell, but if these words are not documented (at least something) they remain stories.

If we believe the words, then let's believe everything they tell us.

"One in two hundred women in the U.S. claims to have gotten pregnant without sex."

Aliens were inducing a man to have an intimate relationship with a monster

2. Regarding the fact that not all areas were equally affected by the famine.

First of all, according to the official statistics, the human losses in Ukraine (USSR) alone were 7 million (!) people. Seven million out of 28 million people lived on its territory. And Kyiv region (again according to official statistics) is one of the most affected

3. Regarding the fact that Soviet statistics are unreliable and lie....

Which of the above reports do you consider fake? Again, if there are other versions of the report of the regional government of the Kiev region, for example, on the delivery of meat, then feel free to put it out...

4. Well, about these terrible photos used as confirmation of the Holodomor

then, again, for the umpteenth time, "check everything they put in your ears!"

ALL these photos were taken by F. Nansen in 1922 in the Volga region.

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Голод_в_Поволжье_(1921-1922)

Of the more than 10,000 photos of those times, there is NOT ONE photo confirming the mass starvation of 1933.

On this day, 14 May 1938, the players of the #England football team raised their arms to give the #Nazi "Heil #Hitler" salute before a match in Berlin. They had been instructed to do so directly by the #British Foreign Office. Reportedly the players at first refused, until the British ambassador and Football Association secretary intervened and ordered them to do so. At the time the British government was pursuing a policy of appeasement of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, and shortly after signed an agreement permitting Germany’s annexation of parts of then-Czechoslovakia. Much of the British ruling class supported Hitler, as well as the dictatorships in #Italy, #Spain and #Portugal, as bulwarks against communism and an organised working class. According to his biographer one of the players, Stan Cullis, would not perform the salute and was dropped from the team for that match as a result.

And today, UK special forces are fighting together with Azov battalion nazi thugs against Russia.

#TravelMail

One of my favorite literary genres is the travel journal or travel memoir. I love reading 19th and early 20th century travel writing. I would also love to subscribe to receive parts of this in the mail; one letter a week (?) from various eras and places in history, recounting travel adventures.

(I mean excerpts from real sources, not fiction.)

Bonus for including sources from a diverse range of travelers.

🧵 4/6

And here's another book I’ve just finished, for anyone who has studied (or is studying) maths. It’s a lovely gallop through the parts of mathematical history that we don’t hear about, steering away from the stories that focus on the “Great Men” of the white western world, and digging around in a far more global and diverse view of how mathematics was developed. Especially highly recommended for anyone teaching maths at any level. It’s out in a couple of weeks. #maths #books #history

The reason 19th century dresses had white collars and white cuffs is that … they didn't! These are undergarments turned over the edges. #19thcentury dresses needed to be dry-cleaned before practical dry-cleaning existed.

Much underclothing was used to keep dresses from contact with skin; working women wore aprons to protect the fronts. At the end of the day, dresses were hung up and brushed lightly.

46 years ago today
The BBC announced a ban on the new Sex Pistols single 'God Save The Queen' saying it's, "in gross bad taste".

In Germany, teaching the Holocaust is mandatory.

It includes visits to concentration camp, museums, etc. They don't shy away from their own ugly history. Yet the kids aren't damaged; they're strengthened, matured, humbled. The U.S. needs to do same with slavery.

Not that complicated.
