They didn’t even manage to make it sound negative.
Guess you missed the “pressed” part? But sure it’s ok to force people to do stuff as long as it serves the state, eh comrade?
Because the glorious, free market capitalist west isn’t forcing people to become STEMLords or joining the Military to even be able to have a roof over their heads, put food in the table and be able to seek out healthcare; because any other degrees lands you to a minimum wage job that might as well give you nothing for how little amenities you can afford with the wages you get from them.
How the fuck do you even force someone to be a scientist? You need years of learning for that, and passion. You can’t just go, “oh noes, the evil state make me be scientist” and then go on to lead the world in spacecraft technology.
How tf are you supposed to coerce someone to become a scientist
Its when big meanie Stalin has a stick, and he beats you over the head with it to turn you into a scientist by sheer force of communism.
You thought that was a stick, but it was just the backend of Stalin’s spoon, famous for the deaths of 100,000,000 Ukrainians
You evile Ten-Key! It was actually 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 Ukrainians.

The Economist? Opinion discarded!
Vs America, where they now force women to be baby makers by outlawing abortion…
In America they just become removed
