I searched quite a few webpages, some says that it is beneficial (as the one I cite), some say that it is bad, especially if a person is genetically a night owl, and I suspect that websites as Fortune, Virgin, Forbes, etc. have an interest to say people that they should wake up earlier and work harder. Anyway, Harvard medical school and some researches also recommends getting up earlier (and going to bed earlier). But it seems that there is not so much scientific references about it. What are your thoughts?

An obscure genre popular in Russia/Spain/UK and Poland around 2000s. Powerful and free of any decadence and snobbery. Libs would hate it - leave them listening to sonic-fast-food smooth jazz and pretending that they have sophisticated music taste.

The October Revolution evolution brough liberation to workers, agriculture proletariat and also woman in USSR. Woman were no longer a property of husband, and they could pursuit any career, like scientist, engineer, soldier or even a cosmonaut. Their voice finally could be heard publicly.

It seems that the years after the October Revolution were also the time of sexual liberation, e.g. like women could have more partners without social stigma, characteristic to patriarchal societies. Conservatives describe this as moral decandency, they write that the Bolsheviks allowed "sadism and masochism" and all kind of sexual perversion. Of course, these conservative fucks do not admit that this "sadism and masochism" cases were most probably consensual sexual practices.

Then, I heard, when Stalin took power, the sexual liberty was tamed. The conservative fucks write something like "Stalin was a monster, but at least he put in order the sexual and moral decandency". And it looks that the sex matters were quite a tabu during Stalin times. Maybe because there was the Great War and a maximal mobilization and discipline were needed. But after Stalin, things seems similar. I read a story of some Polish man, who met some ladies from USSR, probably in 80s. He said that they were more sexualy prudent than people rised in (ultra-?)catholic Poland (even if at that time there was People's Republic of Poland, this country is cursed by very strong catholic mind-worm). I know that USSR had many based gay posters, but I do not see evidence of any sexual playfulnes in practice since Stalin. To put it shortly, USSR since Stalin looks as conservative in matters of customs and sex.

Is a grain of truth in the above or I get it wrong?

Today in Poland there is voting, so you could choose between open fascists, mild fascists with religious fanaticism flavour, conservative neoliberals, and neoliberal puppets called themselves "leftists", but this is a mild socdem at best. The "leftists" are quite concerned about empreteneurs and support the neoliberal opposition. I decided to not vote. However, there is a strong pression to go voting. What would you do?

(Yes, I know this is not strictly a tank). But it was also used in offensive tasks, as a tank.
