::::I don't know much about the Donbas "cauldron," and there's plenty more ways to foil his arguments that result in some interesting confessions from the horse's mouth. His simultaneous defense of Putin-supporting Communists and insistence that calling Putin a commie constitutes "Nazi propaganda" is hilarious.

:::::Even Truman, the great protector of Alger Hiss and other spies, wasn't pro-communist enough, according to Zuesse. Hiss engineered the pre-war oil embargo on Japan as a favor to Stalin. Truman had to adjust course after the Republicans won the November 1946 midterms on the issue of anti-Communism. But his natural instinct was always to treat the communists as potential allies against the "fascist" GOP. Don't forget that he fired MacArthur for trying to win the Korean War. The Red Chinese had to save face, don't you know. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] ([[User talk:PeterKa|talk]]) 22:16, July 10, 2023 (EDT)
