I was thinking of Mendel (planting and (cross)breeding peas and researching dominant and recessive alleles,at least that is what I remember from biology lessons long ago), not sure you threw Mendeleev in for that reason, I knew there is a Mendeleev known for other things ( periodic table), but I thought they just both had the same name..
I tend to mix it up with the naziscientist as wel.. Mengele..
Mengele, Mendel, Mengeleev... they are all stored in the same drawer in my mind haha (but as different persons! just the names are on one pile)
1. Jones and the animals sell their products for profit capitalistically, esp. to build a windmill(s) & etc
2. Kapital (capitalism!)
3. Agricultural products are often sold and extractative and farming practices make up the first group of economy, along with 2 & 3, manufacturing and services
4. Economic plan for economic development! China's later plans with more capitalistic economic freedom lead to great success
5. London is a global city and one the the worlds main finance centers
6. They depopulated the cities and the economy drastically changed under the Khmer Rouge (fun fact Khmer is pronounced khm-eye
7. To remove communism and get some capitalism
8. "The government is led by the prime minister ... who selects all the other ministers." This would include the Minister of Finance.
9. "between capitalism ..."
10. cooperate is only a few letters from corporate...
8/10, but I console myself with the fact that othre people didn't know the 2 I got wrong either. Only 28% got Nepal and 27% got Lysenko. With a 25% chance that means mostly guessing.
Excellent theme for me today, given that it lines up nicely with my studies 😁 10/10, but not quite enough to top my LB even this early in the day (9,904). Nepal and Lysenko were tricky ones, not surprised to see the stats for those questions.
Also, I will forever remain convinced that Pol Pot was a CIA asset 😂
9/10 so annoyed I thought Marx was buried in Frankfurt, that was dumb and I may have even heard before that it was London, I forgot he was buried in my own city
Can’t believe communism doesn’t work with the entire might of the world’s foremost superpower trying to destabilize it smh. Oh well, let’s get back to making billionaires rich by exploiting the bottom 99% of mankind.
9/10.....1-7 easy mostly because I've lived through the times plus required readings, bad guess on 8, Q9 studied in college, Q10....eliminated Gorky & Pavlov, Mendeleev sounded like the tennis player
The irony of QM posting an Interesting Fact about free speech applying to those you disagree with, followed by him deleting my comments about capitalist genocides. Lmao.
Just because you have freedom of speech doesn't mean QM can't delete your comments (being the overseer of the website and whatnot). Why not go to some kind of political forum to talk about "capitalist genocide"? I think this site's mostly for fun.
Of course this isn’t a government website, so he can do what he wants. Just clear that homie doesn’t really practice what he preaches. I was only suggesting there be a capitalism quiz (atrocities included) to go along with this one. Seems fun to me.
Got the tenth via process of elimination though

also cultural revolution should've been a answer choice on #4
todays theme = capitalism and the economy!
score: 10/10

My parents and my grandparents all had Marxism-Leninism classes in school.
Also, I will forever remain convinced that Pol Pot was a CIA asset 😂
We definitely won't go into debt at the rate of a trillion dollars every 100 days. That would be silly
