It really is like this. I have a friend who’s family grew up in the Soviet Union, and left during the collapse (he was born after). He is vehemently against Communism, but he’s also strongly against capitalism. It’s a bit frustrating to talk with him because he’ll agree with me right up until I start to talk strategy or historical context around the Soviet Union.


I noticed that youtube hasn’t let me change the speed at all recently on my computer. They show the typical speed control, but it doesn’t work and shows 4x speed premium.
That being said, I have a browser extension that just lets me speed up the video with a keyboard shortcut to whatever speed I want, so it really doesn’t matter.
