Same with geopolitics now, since the USA have basically sided with Russia against Ukraine. I want to have a solid background to be able to interpret current events and tendencies.


You’ve been siding with Russia since 1776?


(We had a kind of falling out when Capitalism felt threatened.)


> You’ve been siding with Russia since 1776?

Huh? In most senses of "siding with," I don't think that this statement has really been true for this broad a sweep of US history.


To say I misread your original comment would be an understatement, my apologies.


I am not freilanzer, who made the comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43410830 to which you responded, so, if you do think an apology is warranted, then it should probably be to them.
