Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
Imagine the reactions and the meme on the Internet. "The Soviet are out of line... but they are right!"
Fun fact: in Viet Nam, we have various jokes of the same caliber.
Well, we can always drop it in Russian.

And Mika just ropes him in the clique... and who knows? We have an actual Soviet ONI?
Holy crap. The Lion arives? Talk about the reinforcement.
And when will Koron pull the trigger? The Chenkov gun has been around for a while, concerning Agron...
I'd like to imagine these agents are sufficiently competent and ideological, that the future labor unions are real unions, actually fighting for labors right. Zinoviev can't complain about it, and Mika just shrug: "I told you so."
Imagine a new line of conversation after Stalin asking "how...
And isn't it fun? Agron never willingly to damn himself in the Horus Heresy, which means, *technically* speaking, his soul is still his own, not Khorne's
