This is true for us all...
(out of contexting etc etc also helps)
So which version of just such a movie is 'Now Showing!" in your country..!?
(and worldwide)
Because the 'Joe Public' Russians I have met are generally good friendly people who will share and help as they know what having little is like.
These are the same people that were/are? shot as deserters if they turned around in battle.
So... "commies" means who exactly?
Everyone in Russia?
Or a 'painted picture'?
Or certain individuals?
I find putting a broader extra thought or 2 into thoughts seeded by 'The Narrative' is ... illuminating...
That said:
How long is 'The News' if every gasoline car that catches fire is put on the news?
Similarly;
Vaping is or was... all over the news, killing people.
How long will "The News' be if they give as much time to every cigarette smoker who died today as a result.
You wont, but putting a thought or 2 into "who really owns CNN, CBS, Fox, etc-etc is an interesting dead end of shell companies etc.
There's no better way of spreading 'your version of the truth' than finding someone who truly believes the script handed to him and putting him in font of a 'news' camera in a suit.
Or just paying someone that has all that all set up already.

That's easy. After 10 years there would be zero minutes of me being the good guy.
People who are commies are the ones working to spread the cancer known as communism. People who support, spread commie propagandaand those who rally support for the cause. Poland, Taiwan and people who made it to the united states from Russia, cuba, Vietnam are some of the most hard core anit-communits out there.
Just because someone is Russia or Chinese doesn't automatically mean they're communist.

Scott Adams summarizes the 'good' and the 'bad' portrayals as the Documentary Effect. He uses Michael Jackson documentaries as his example where he believed MJ was a monstrous pedo after seeing one documentary, and then believing MJ was kindhearted and good after watching a different documentary. Our emotions are exploited with the music choice, the framing of the shots, what images they linger on, which they don't... you'll just end up believing whatever was the last thing you saw.

Why do you put USofA and Cuba in the same bucket?

I have no idea where they came up with that.
Astaroth is Yahweh's wife ( God's wife ), in the most early Hebrew traditions.

' hydroflouric acid '
Oh, I just love it! Like that 2.5 PM entering directly into my and my loved one's brains from your Diesel's tailpipe.
History will write one day that, Heroin couldn't hold a candle to methane and CO2 as far as addictive substances go.
Eat all the Red Dye No. 3 you can before they take it off the market.

My diesel that's only been ran a hand full of times since 2013? Ha! You should be more worried about school buses and other municipal vehicles. If you don't have a high volume air filter that removes pm2.5 and a pm 2.5 meter then you don't really care about it and you're just being a drama queen.

I take every opportunity to enjoy the burnt diesel fragrance as the increasingly infrequent occasions present themselves. Memories of my more youthful days.

The Truth is we're going to see fewer or no more deep water horizon disasters and we're going to see a lot more battery fires.

' since 2013 '
* NASA satellites pick up your 'plume' over New Mexico every time you fire it up, and track it 'downwind.'
* All our school buses, city transit buses, solid waste disposal infrastructure, etc., was converted from Diesel, to compressed natural gas years ago.
* In order to capture a person's attention, I'm forced to ratchet up the level of 'drama' just to become visible beyond your sphere of drama ( dramatic proliferation ). Also, I've been wearing a tutu, and dancing around, pirouetting on toe-shoes while I type, in proper 'queen' fashion!
* And, The World Health Organization appears poised to provide nano-particulate filters to everyone, and all air-breathing creatures on the planet ( The invoice will be sent to the Global Association of Diesel Engine Manufacturers & Retailers, and the Association of Diesel Fuel Refiners, and Stockholders ).

' battery fires '
https://www.google.com/search?q=coal...t=gws-wiz-serpI don't have a crystal ball, and I'm not into speculation, but since any 'fire' costs shareholders 'profits', I suspect that Adam Smith's 'Invisible Hand' will figure out how to prevent future incidents.
Here's some data on USA coal-mine disasters and deaths:
