The unmanned craft was due to make a soft landing on the Moon’s south pole, but failed after encountering problems as it moved into its pre-landing orbit.
It was Russia’s first Moon mission in almost 50 years.
Russia has been racing to the Moon’s south pole against India, whose Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft is scheduled to land on there next week.
No country has ever landed on the south pole before, although both the US and China have landed softly on the Moon’s surface.
No report on whether or not Russia was attempting to use repurposed anti-ship missiles like the ones they use to attack schools and hospitals here on Earth.
I was taught the tenets of Buddhism in my nationally-required Religious education lessons. Does that make me a Buddhist? Does that make my nation a Buddhist one?
There, your question is answered.
China has been peddling the same excuse about needing to get their economy up to a certain point before they can fully embrace communism since the Great Step Forward.
Meanwhile, there are 969 billionaires in China, it is the home of sweatshops and workers aren’t legally allowed to strike.
Soshulizm
Maybe? Which country is this? You were also taught Buddhism because it is harmless to capitalism (with rare exceptions such as the monk who torched himself during the Vietnam War to protest American imperialism).
Tell me, if China embraced your version of communism (whatever the fuck it even is) right now, what would happen? Do you think that it might be better to wait until things are generally better (i.e. no USA waiting for any excuse to launch the nukes) before doing this?
Where would you rather be a billionaire? China, or the USA? Why does Elon Musk never criticize China, yet he constantly criticizes the American government?
UK.
Oh, it would be way worse, because communism is always way worse.
I think it would still be terrible even if there were no USA. If there were no USA, whatever brought them down would have collapsed the entire world’s economy and there would be thousands of nukes lying around.
I’d rather be a billionaire in the US because my English is better than my Mandarin. Quality of life would be exactly the same at that income bracket wherever you live in the world. Labor protection would be weaker in China though, if I were looking to exploit my workers…
My man (sorry to misgender you but you have no pronouns displayed), the state religion in the UK is anticommunism, and you seem to have swallowed this religion wholeheartedly, even as the USA reduces your country to the state of a glorified colony / TERF-laden aircraft carrier. Enjoy experiencing the other side of imperialism I suppose. I hope this winter doesn’t get too cold?
Then I’m glad we’ve established that it’s better to be a billionaire outside of China, because China is a workers’ state that regularly executes billionaires. Losing ideological battles online is but a prelude to losing them in the real world 😉
Corrupt politicians purging enemies is not the win you think it is there, chief.
Which country are we talking about?
There’s still a lot of people that came of age in the USSR. They’re very interesting to talk to. Often, their experience doesn’t match the American anticommunist rhetoric.
Oh noes, China has billionaires! I wonder if they are doing anything about them…
I was taught Catholicism from preschool up to highschool. Hell I’m no longer catholic, but the institution and the state that it serves is principally catholic because it pushes this “education” unto the general public.
Same goes for China, due to it propping Marxism and Marxist education in it’s institutions because of it being a Marxist state. If it were capitalist and owned by capitalists, it would take the path of the US and spread anti-communism within it’s population.
Let’s try number of billionaires per capita instead of a flat number of billionaires.
