    This is turning into semantics. How can a country that is imperial not be effected(prodded) by imperialism?

    I was making a point of the ridiculousness of your prior comment. Well done I guess.

      So you’re including self-prodding by imperialism. In that case, the fuck was your point about the Soviet Secret Police being necessary and justified because of imperialism? Are you just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks at this point?
