but it’s clear that to a large extent, the Nazi former-paramilitary factions (now legitimized in the military and in govt) have significant influence and only Uncle Sam can get them to back down
In their own words - “we’re 10%, but we’re the decisive 10 percent”. They absolutely do have control over the government because their people infested said government
They’re too valuable to send to the meatgrinder
Precisely, precisely
how many of the original Nazis who were gleefully killing civilians in Donbas are actually still around and managed to avoid being sent into the meatgrinder?
They are being actively spared, actually. The 12 separate brigade - the notorious Azov neo-Nazi special forces have been chilling in forests near Kupiansk for a very long time doing virtually nothing, they are rarely asked to do shit, if ever. The 3rd separate brigade (also Azov Nazis) is just a TikTok media brigade - when they sent them to “stop the collapse in Avdeevka” they straight up refused and ran.
Something something paper tigers. This human filth can only larp and harass the unarmed
The problem is not the headline but western liberals who have a strong tendency of rejecting their own capitalist propaganda media once it finally starts to acknowledge reality, at least in part. To them everything that doesn’t conform to their pre-manufactured beliefs is “Russian propaganda”
Wait 'til you know that he also writes for Ukrainska Pravda and is also a secret advisor to Elensky
Closer at least in a sense that “it wasn’t an oopsie” and “an accident”. Anyway, what do you want them to do, admit it was plainly squashed by a Russian missile while being hidden in a hangar? That’s not how western capitalist propaganda works. Of course they’re gonna have to spin it
Now we’re closer to the truth
Holy shit what a cute-looking animal. The more you know I guess
Supposedly Voice of America now claims it could be friendly AD fire. Which is even more hilarious. It’s like Crash Bandicoot but “Crash Banderite”, but instead of a fox-looking thing there’s a Ukrainian guerrilla-like figure running away from press gangs and sabotaging Zelensky’s war efforts.

For the matter - the religious group in question (UOC) has not had any ties to Moscow for decades now, it is of the Moscow Patriarchate in the name only. Their “reasoning” comes down to “can’t have anything similar to the Russians”.
AFAIK they have been trying to undermine the aforementioned church for years, even now it’s not really working - people aren’t buying it, mostly.
Got it. Thank you for sharing - this explains a lot.
Idk about the patsoc part, but they are definitely sus
I can access it - using a Serbian VPN.
Yeah, I think his name is Donald Courier. It’s stated on ProleWiki that he has dual Russian and US citizenship. He also appeared numerous times on RT. And, I mean, it does not automatically mean a person is uncritically supportive of Russia, but I do get the vibes he isn’t as impartial as he claims to be in his videos.
and the revolution report website hosts some anti-lgbtq articles
Yeah… They have a lot of based stuff, but unfortunately they also have that and climate change denial bullshit. One of their main editors (Slava the Socialist) made a video on their YouTube channel titled something akin to “How Capitalism abuses Science” or something… Where (under the veil of “the West uses green agenda for their advantage”) they spewed absolute climate denialist nonsense, to the degree of “hey, if you boil water - molecules get excited, but then they dissipate heat and cool down, just like CO2 molecules, thus climate change is not real” and “just plant more trees!”
That’s either having some awful takes on it, or I’m sensing they are at least somewhat affiliated with Russian circles, ML and non-ML (KPRF, for example, holds similar views on climate change and lgbt+ liberation)
“America deserved 9/11”
Doesn’t mean that everyone in the towers deserved to be blown up or crushed. Also - the more you kill, the more Amerika’s got to show for their public to manufacture consent for the wars.
So yes Ukraine needs to lose most of their power grid
That’s not the thing people criticized you for - I think this point is rather obvious to everyone (myself included), no one was disagreeing with it.
And I love how you bad faith people come here and put words in my mouth
I am pretty sure no one’s been making bad faith arguments. It’s more like someone’s got backlash and instead of doing selfcrit decided to double down.
I’d rather it be a Ukrainian civilian than a Russian one. I’d rather neither die but I don’t live in the world of rather, I live in the real world
You are contradicting yourself. Is it the world of rather or not the world of rather?
Also - you’ve mentioned several times how it’s all Ukrainian civilians’ fault. THAT is a bad faith argument. You know, whatever fault there can be ascribed - western civilians are a zillion times more guilty, judging by that logic. Thing is - they’ll get away with it scot-free, and we’re already paying with our lives. Funny how that works.
Absolutely. When it comes to the US and the Ukronazis.
Critical support for Trump and the US’ self-inflicted damage.
