Even in direct comparison Paperclip comes out looking a lot more :sus-deep: than the Soviet equivalent. The Soviets grabbed middle managers and working engineers, while the Americans grabbed the people in charge and whoever came along with them. The Soviets put German scientists on teams headed by Soviet scientists, the Americans put high profile "former" Nazis in charge of American military programs. When the work was done, the Soviet German scientists were sent back to the Germany of their choice with a paycheck and anonymity, while America gave their German scientists fame by centering them in propaganda and publicly excusing their crimes. There's a reason Nazis did everything they could to surrender to America, meanwhile in order to get their scientists the Soviets showed up in the middle of the night with guns.

That first link is infuriating.

He then began to enjoy the good life just like the Tsars as illustrated by this photo taken at the May Day Red Army Parade in Moscow 1918!

Dude was a well documented workaholic to the detriment of his own health because of his commitment to the Revolution, but yeah this one photo of him being driven in a May Day parade proves that he just wanted to take toys from rich people and live it up.

different beliefs about ownership

This concept was fairly fleshed out in the seventh HP book. Potterverse Goblins believe that ownership is established by creation of an object, which lead to a historic misunderstanding where Godric Griffindor believed that his sword was "sold" to him and the Goblin who made it believed it had only been rented.

You might think that this was set up so that the hero could resolve an old tension between the two groups and make justice, but actually the plot thread was left unresolved. A Goblin tried to steal the sword back as soon as Harry's back was turned, but then later it got re-summoned to Hogwarts by a spell that had been placed on it.

Is this the full interview or the clip from the episode? I haven't watched it but the Chapos say in their episode about the Hillary show that it was obvious they cut Contra off right before she started explaining how the status quo wasn't fixing the problem they were talking about, which seems like exactly what they would do.

Looks to me like they're trying to channel Guardians of the Galaxy, aka the best capeshit.

As footage of Japanese civilians with their skin peeling off played on the screen, the audience of Americans was laughing hysterically as if they were watching Charlie Chaplin or the Marx Brothers.

:scared:

Worth remembering that while Sarkeesian was one of the principal targets of Gamer Gate, it initially got started when an ~~woman~~ NB made a text adventure that got good reviews and people freaked and assumed she slept with a reviewer for them.
