Most of those goals have been accomplished.
The spirit of the old Soviet Union and Marxism is alive here more than it is Russia.

No, I think it is more like 50% are assisting with the implementation of those goals. He who holds the schools holds the high ground in a culture war.

#1 is promoted every single day on this site bt the pro-Russian fifth columnists who say that the West should capitulate to Russia on every Russian demand. Or mah nukes.
To the contrary, they are making the case to obliterate Russia to end their tyranny once and for all.

“ Never mind the formatting, the grammar of your thread title hurts my eyes and ears.”.
The, “is” which should have been, “are” was a poor selection of words. I’m an old dog. Blame the NYC public education department.
