There's a lot of truth to this. Wherever we have data, we see this repeated:
Communists tend to be downwardly mobile. They are, always and everywhere, disproportionately likely to be their generation's losers.
Consider this Finnish data on the Red and White Guards:

RUSSIAN INFANTRY RACES TO GET TROPHIES!
The βrealβ battle in Pokrovsk right now is not for the city itself, for who gets the mega-tactical gear of the dead GUR special forces. Special forces always have good gear, which everyone tries to get.
Russian channel writes: βI remember in Bakhmut, one assault commander told me that sometimes they would stake out good special gear even before the battle ended.
They basically told the bird watchers on the radio: βThat one lying there is mine. Remember and donβt touch it, I called dibs on it out. You are witnessesβ
A trophy is a trophy. Thereβs no morality here.β

NEW: Russia's first humanoid robot, powered by artificial intelligence, face plants while walking out to the Rocky theme song at a Moscow tech show.
Event staff were seen rushing out with a black drape to shield the robot, which couldn't get up, from the audience.
Organizers blamed the fall on "calibration and lighting issues."
"Despite our size, we believe our work is currently among the most advanced in Russia in this area and is quite comparable to leading international efforts (and in some aspects even ahead of them)," the company AIDOL boasted in a statement.

US rent prices are declining at a historic pace:
National apartment rents fell -0.31% MoM in October, marking the steepest October decrease in over 15 years.
This also marks the 3rd consecutive monthly decline, as elevated supply continues to weigh on prices nationwide.
3 of the 5 largest monthly rent declines over the last 15 years occurred in August, September, and October this year.
At the same time, annual rent growth slowed to +0.8%, down from +1.5% at the start of 2025.
All US regions saw rent declines last month, led by the West with a -0.53% MoM drop. The South followed with -0.28%, while the Northeast and Midwest fell -0.24% and -0.18%.
The US rental market is cooling.

A group of Gazans are stuck on a plane in South Africa after being refused entry into the country.
Based on the interview with a woman on the flight, they think that they are entitled to be allowed in.
Ironically, South Africa was one of the countries that went to the ICC claiming that there was a "genocide" going on in Gaza, yet they refuse to help the "genocide victims."
