:Kat Timpf on Gutfeld articulated a similar problem today. How are historians 50 or 100 hundred years from now going to explain the Trump presidency, two impeachments, the Russia collusion hoax, FBI investigations etc, and the fact that all media sources and their reporting from the last 8 years have discredited themselves - when the complete cavalcade originated with a bogus pee tape?

:And we see a another, similar problem today: Sinophobic bigots try to blame all of America's problems on "[[China]]", rather than making a distinction between "China" and "CCP". The Chinese Communists are the problem, and the Chinese people are their biggest victims. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Give Peace a chance'']]</sup> 07:55, June 30, 2023 (EDT)

:The Russians themselves in modern Russia have adapted the same idiomatic change in meaning; they refer to a "Soviet person" as a person who grew up and lived in the Soviet climate. A "Soviet person" is not necessarily or even likely to be communist, they were simply acculturated in Soviet times. By contrast, German society uses the term "citizen of the Reich" to specifically denote people who still hold Nazi views, and not just somebody who lived in those times.
