  • Both sides were the aggressors in general and each side had moments where they were the more active part leading to confrontations.

    I don’t think the cold war can be described as one single conflict with a clear aggressor, which is the whole point why it is called a cold war.

    I’m not knowledgeable enough if there are statistics about which side was more in the wrong or did more aggressor stuff.

    But for me, knowing that the USA did the Iran and CIA stuff while the USSR did Afghanistan and KGB stuff is enough for me to decide both were elitist assholes that didn’t care for normal humans but just wanted to increase their own power.







  • Not an expert, but as far as I know, you nearly never see a true single picture, but always a combined one. So they take multiple slightly overlapping pictures who are seeing the hidden middle spot of other pictures.

    This also helps by making sure what you see on one picture is also there on other pictures and not just a random dust particle in the air or some other thing on earth/in its atmosphere rather than an object in outer space.




  • No. Hard No. The progressive Germany we (I live here) have today was fought AGAINST those that continued to shape Germany even after the war. A strong shift was the 68 movement that specifically questioned why people who worked in administrative positions under Hitler continued to work in sometimes the same positions in West Germany. And also it was not because the Germans were the one calling the shots. A lot of the democratic reforms were only possible in the first place because those Germans that championed them were backed by the guns of the allied forces.

    And honestly most problems we currently have are exactly because of remnants from Nazi times that weren’t sufficiently destroyed.

    And so currently we have exactly the same problem so many others have: conservatives who don’t conserve anything but rather are regressive and want back to a “good old days” that never existed
