  • No, the “size” in “exercise” is not pronounced the same as “seize” - if you’re pronouncing them the same then you’re mispronouncing one or both. It’s /saɪz/ vs /siːz/, resp. And yeah, I’m going to try to move my account to a non-communist instance, seeing what can only be misguided teens and preteens praising these criminals has got real old. I set this account up 2+ years ago not realising this was a pro-Russian instance.

    Those two words aren’t homophones: size and seize are pronounced very differently (and the second syllable of “exercise” is “er”). It wouldn’t be funny even if there was wordplay involved: communists have killed millions of my and wife’s people and set our countries back for generations to come.

    Great as in nicely edited, compelling in a Michael Moore way. I just rewatched it and think I know which scene you mean. They could’ve left more of his contortions in, fair enough, but he gets an awful lot of airtime besides. How is Walsh a grifter? I only know him from this documentary and the interview that led me to it.
