Don't forget the number of animals that died. Were Belka and Strelka the only animals the Soviet sent up that made it back alive?How many people died so that the USSR start space travel?

The Soviets had amazing an physics sector, but lagged behind in every other sector. This is because they invested in grandiose physics projects for propaganda reasons.Half of those “Firsts” were bare minimum endeavors done as petty attempts to claim the Soviets did something before Americans did, and the American endeavors into those forays almost always did something more impressive than the Red showboating implies. The idea that the Soviets “won” the Space Race simply because they had a bunch of “firsts” built on a mountain of corpses is absurd.
Putting a man on the moon is approximately 10,000,000 times more impressive than all the other things, that's why America won the Space Race. Any non-faggot can understand this easily
generally the way races work is that the winner is the person who crosses the finish line first, you don't get the gold medal because you were in front for 90% of it if you aren't still in front when the race ends
Also, Sputnik, the first satellite in space was practically useless and was only launched to instill some fear into the American people. Also if I remember correctly, wasn't the first women in space basically sent on a one way deathtrap that the Russian government still refuses to acknowledge to this day?Putting a man on the moon is approximately 10,000,000 times more impressive than all the other things, that's why America won the Space Race.

I know at least that Laika was supposed to be administered poisoned food if she hadn't died due to craft malfunction since the Soviets never intended for her to recover her, but I don't remember what happened to the official first woman in space. Of course, I also subscribe to the Lost Cosmonauts theory that the Soviets probably did even more launches than they officially admit to and ended up killing a shitton of people in the name of getting a lot of "firsts" in the Space Race, so I'm not a completely unbiased observer.Also, Sputnik, the first satellite in space was practically useless and was only launched to instill some fear into the American people.

I love the theory that Yuri et al were merely the first ones to come back, but iirc there's a good case made against anything beyond "explodes on the pad" as once it's up in the air it's _really_ easy to for USA and NATO spot the launch, so if they could dunk on USSR killing a bunch of randos it would be an expected shot to take.I know at least that Laika was supposed to be administered poisoned food if she hadn't died due to craft malfunction since the Soviets never intended for her to recover her, but I don't remember what happened to the official first woman in space.

What about government sponsored child transitions? Or endangering female spaces?
The fact that they’re still mad about it is all the proof I need that we wonPutting a man on the moon is approximately 10,000,000 times more impressive than all the other things, that's why America won the Space Race. Any non-faggot can understand this easily
Shit like this is what bums me out about the whole shebang.Bughive-dwelling soyjak got offended by a country song lyric about crime in cities being a bad thing, wrote an entire parody version about how the soy life is far superior. Other lefties start posting the lyrics as a "meme."
Doesn't really fit the rhyme or meter of the actual song very well. Also, the song actually came out months ago. It just took the NPCs this long to get the program update telling them to be angry about it.

This chaps my fucking ass.Capitalism has kept more people from starving than any of those bullshit they've ever looked at.
But if they had their way, they'd enslave the farmers and force everyone to work in the Funco Pop mines.
Honestly that's kind of humorous, if only for the mental image of a "Lilith" waiting in a dinky basement for some biological girl to wander down; while a gang of Aidens & Pooners dressed like vikings LARP in the park with the nerds.Obligatory meme addition
please try to fight me pooners, you want to be men? I will absolutely treat you like a man if you try to throw hands. If you really are a man you should be able to handle that without hiding behind your xx chromosomes when you get your ass beat.Obligatory meme addition
Didn't Allende get ousted by the Chilean military before the CIA even approached Pinocnet?
I can't tell if this guy is too stupid to understand the metaphor, too lazy to get anywhere without free handouts, or both.Strawman in the wild.
Worse yet, he took 6 panels to do what could have been condensed to 2.
