day 13 of theme paranoia/blindness

todays theme = the color black!

1. Brazil's flag has text. Text is commonly in the color black (tho it isnt on Brazil's flag)

2. Coal is black

3. Black Sabbath

4. The roman empire was over 50 years ago so all the pictures of this event were probably in black and white

5. One of the other colors on the wheel is black

6. The nose of the lion on the Spanish flag, that country's colonizer, is black

7. Another period of terror and repression in that country was the Red Terror. Red is a color, as is Black.

8. A similar sounding place is Tora Bora, which is in a country with a flag that is partly black (left side)

9. Black patches

10. Oil is black

Nah, I did that too. I went with adulation because the recesses of my brain remembered some word starting with A was used for some ancient celebration. I cannot put my finger on the actual word or culture, though.

Nah, Kulaks were much wealthier than your average peasant! It's all relative tho.

I wouldn't use the word "slightly", wealthier - it's just wrong.

Kulaks were the privileged class in the Soviet Union, and they weren't liked much by peasantry. They owned significant amount of lands, cattle and could hire other peasants to work for them. So they did hold significant power in villages. That's why the USSR wanted to get rid of them, because they were the remains of capitalist society.

No, Kulaks were not in a privileged class. Some former peasants thrived under the abolition of serfdom and ran successful farms. Most, however, had enough to be marginally better off than the lower class. Anyone who owned three hectares was considered a Kulak under Bolshevik decree, among other criteria like having paid labour. However, any peasant who resisted the ideas of the Bolsheviks was labelled a kulak regardless of wealth, and the term was used propagandistically against anyone the Soviets didn’t like. But even a personal grudge from a Soviet official might make someone a Kulak. Also, three hectares is enough to survive well enough, but no one was getting rich off three hectares in the early 1900s. It might make your neighbour with only 1 hectare jealous enough to inform on your Kulak ways, though.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulak

> During the first five-year plan, Joseph Stalin's all-out campaign to take land ownership and organisation away from the kulaks meant that, according to historian Robert Conquest, "peasants with a couple of cows or five or six acres [2 or 2.5 ha] more than their neighbors" were labeled kulaks.

8/10. Knew it wasn't imperium and didn't think it was victorium and went the wrong way of the remaining 2. Should have known it was PA, because that sounded the least right. Guessed AK.

9/10 again today, some very tricky ones here. Only got calico because of the pirate Jack Rackham, and the oil well I had a hunch but I'd be lying if I said I was confident with Pennsylvania. It was the Roman celebration that got me though. I ruled out Victorium as a trap but ended up going for Adulation.

To those that are saying they didn't get the roulette question because they don't gamble. To me that sounds like "I don't know what a beer bottle or wine bottle looks like, because I don't drink"

And I think most people have never played roulette (if it is 5% it would be a lot even if you just take the western world)
