Soviets of all races and ethnicities along with French and German communists are still horrifically despised
I don’t think they’re really recognized as a cohort. When you talk about the German proletariat, its presumed you’re talking about some blue collar auto worker or engineer or PMC banker. What’s more, any kind of media coverage of Germany always fixates on the far-right elements of anti-government action. You’d never know East Germany was a thing, much less that German communists exist as a political force.
With France, you get a vague acknowledgement of labor unions and riotous dissidents. But they’re also traditionally described in the context of far-right parties, xenophobic ideology, and a blanket disdain for Anglophones rather than any kind of Internationalist labor sentiments. French communism as a movement is also heavily occluded in international media monologues.
When you do get into anything resembling leftist ideology, it is typically described as a foreign element - Muslim/Hindu family homes/rejection of modern banking/vegetarianism or anarchism/anti-police sentiment in African ghettos or the insidious influence of the Chinese Communist Party on French/German domestic economies. I guess, we get a bit of an inversion of the trope. Less that “revolt is bad because foreign” and more “foreign is bad because its revolutionary”.
Eastern Europeans are a whole different thing. You’ve got the “good” Eastern Europeans (your Latvians and Estonians and Orbans and Navalneys) who align with the western finance sector. And then you’ve got the “bad” Eastern Europeans (your Putins and Lukashenkos and Serbs and Moldovians) who operate as a foreign policy boogieman that justify more NATO spending.
Trying to figure out if the people doing the revolution are justified in their violence…
Alright, I think I’ve got it.
I know a few folks in software in the US, and the lion’s share aren’t making $250k/year. The ones that are all have Masters/PhDs and are leads/specialists in the Top 20 industry leaders. I don’t know who you’re working for that pays a quarter million per code-monkey flailing at python, but if there’s a job opening that pays this well please let me know. I’ve got over 15 years experience doing big boy shit for a Fortune 500, and I’d love an extra $100k/year.
