Maybe? The current Iranian government is nationalist and anti imperalist, but I can see how many people would be against it in ways. Venezuela has a good government, but there's still the issue of corruption and economic turmoil.

Cuba is a rare example of a South American state having such a thorough and all encompassing revolution that basically the entirely of the population was on the side of the revolutionaries.

That being said, this data is definitely biased heavily and even with the bias it still shows a clear picture of the socialist nations having significantly higher popular support than the capitalist ones.

The US would love that because it further destabilizes Europe and creates a market for weapons sales in Eastern Europe and LNG in Western Europe.

A continuous war in the Balkans also landlocks West Europe from trade with China.

Meanwhile the average worker is looking at a 3% raise per year if they're lucky. Usually 0% or some fixed 25¢ amount.

Real wages went up because they went down slightly slower! Well, only if your inflation calculation ignored necessities like food, housing, and energy.

I like how the upper class response is larger for people making less than $10,000/yr than any other bracket until you hit $150,000

Some of the best sources are actually the ones with clear ideological bents because you can filter the whole story knowing where they're coming from.

Most of the sources used by communist theorists are capitalist rags (Economist has been around for well over a century and has a very clear bias) and industrial magazines (banking, mining, light industry) to understand the positions of the bourgeoisie and then direct interviews and union meeting minutes to understand the positions of the workers.

I was just in Chapel Hill NC and they've got 2 broods out right now. It's insane

It's also why every release is named after a Toy Story character

Nazis complain about Wolfenstein being woke, so they're doing a bit to mock them

All of Zachtronics games are awesome like someone decided to make cool math games for adults

Elliot makes every possible wrong decision and the "anarchis"t collective decides to capitalize on the largest and possibly biggest redistribution of wealth in a century by dropping balls on the Senate and spray painting walls
