Apparently the Soviet SU-100 Tank Destroyer Was So Effective It Was Nicknamed

“Пиздец всему“ which translates approximately to “Fucks everything” 

while its performance might have been somewhat lackluster against the bigger nazi heavy tanks thanks to the sheer thickness of their armour (like the ferdinand and the king tiger), the su-100’s gun was so effective it was also used on the t-54 and t-55 tanks, which were built into the 1970s.

it is, i feel, worth noting that while the su-100 was very effective, it was based on a fairly flimsy medium tank, which rendered it pretty vulnerable to a lot of incoming fire.

my personal favorite nickname for soviet ifvs, however, is for the isu-152 family. these were self-propelled guns that excelled in killing those heavy tanks mentioned above; due to the nazi tendency to name tanks after dangerous animals (panther, tiger, elephant, wasp, etc) the guns became known as Зверобой, which translates to “beast killer”

I’ve also heard “Zoo Keeper”

tankies literally talking about soviet tanks. lmao.

@trans-cynical The resemblance is so close they can no longer tell the difference between their comrades and a T-34 tank.

All jokes aside though, Big armored things with big guns are really fucking cool

I’m somewhere between a leftcom and an anarchist, I just think military history is interesting.

@thepeacockangel oh for sure, i got you because same. Was just pokin’ fun lmao

No problemo, comrade ^_^

The fact that Gloria Steinem ADMITTED to informing to the CIA on the actions of her black radical comrades and is still considered to be a relevant and respectable feminist figure just goes to show the reactionary character of liberal feminism.

Do you have any good sources for this?? I’m looking right now and having trouble

Here’s a source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/01/24/AR2008012402369.html

I Feel Like It’s Super Weird When Couples

Have like entirely separate friend groups?

Like there isn’t a whole “These are D’s friends” “These are my friends” thing with me and D, pretty much all our friends are both our friends with the exception of my online RP friends pretty much, and like he’s a little closer to some of the Lovecraftian people and I’m a little closer to some of the Alt. fashion people but like overall most of our closest friends are other leftists and are friends with both of us.

Cause like if you don’t have common interests, what do you talk about?  How do you have a relationship with someone who doesn’t wanna hang out with your friends?

Hey, I got answers… 

Me and my husband have things in common… but not everything in common. 

We are two separate people who love each other. Not one fused super-being.. the world isn’t ready for that yet.. 

As a result, there are some things I enjoy that he doesn’t much care for, and things he enjoys that I don’t much care for. 
Like… I like raisins, and he doesn’t… but with things like different genres of media and different social needs… 

Ofcourse there’s overlap. There’s my friends, his friends, And our friends, but I don’t need all his friends to be my friends too and vice versa. I think it’s adorable when he talks about his friends that I don’t even know.

I am included in his world, and he is included in mine, but we still remain ourselves, individuals, who choose to share our worlds with each other because we want to. 

I meant when there’s like… no overlap at all it’s weird, your thing seems normal. Mostly I find some stuff my husband likes interesting because it’s *his* stuff, like I probably wouldn’t be this interested in the Eastern front of WWII if it weren’t for him, but it’s an interesting subject and his passion got me into it… and like while we don’t have all interests in common, most of our friends are sort of… well like they share interests with both of us, like they might be interested in three things we’re all interested in, and then two things only one of us is interested in, and it sort of goes like that… but like most of our friends are other commies and we mostly talk about that so… that’s a thing.
