Fine moderate me then. If you want to pretend that repugnance at this kind of propaganda bs is a ‘personal attack’ then that’s on you. I just think it’s sad you seem so unaware of the sources he’s dressing up as reasonable opinion. It’s not hard to find ...
Anyone reading this should be aware of who Max Blumenthal is. He’s literally been paid by both Putin and Assad and is one of the people behind the White Helmet ‘false flag’ conspiracy theory. He has no credibility except amongst utter cranks. It’s nothing ...
Meh, what’s the worst that happens? I get banned from a blog site that lets shit like this be punished. I do find it interesting that this branch of the left just refuse to die. The weirdest this is that the decades that these types shilled for the Soviet ...
It’s takes like yours that are making actual Eastern Europeans so frustrated. I’m sure they’ll thank you for suggesting they’re ignoring their own history. https://newrepublic.com/article/165603/carlson-russia-ukraine-imperialism-nato Also, anyone who ...
Wow! The Standard are printing pro Putin propaganda that may as well be written in the Kremlin, whilst Russian military are committing crimes against humanity. But then you can just play the meeeja card and equally embarrassing moral equivalence card. It’s...
And if the ‘threat and grievance’ is a smoke screen for simply wanting these nations under Russia’s thumb? There’s every reason to believe Putin fears these countries being open and democratic far more than he ‘fears’ NATO. What actual threat does NATO ...
A bit of reading for all the Putin apologists and so called ‘Realists’. Trigger Warning: Contains views of actual Eastern Europeans. ‘Westsplaining’ is a great term for the likes of Mearshiemer, Chomsky er al. https://newrepublic.com/article/165603/carlson...
“So Ukrainian self determination should take a back seat to Russia's imperialist ideology” Yes, but it’s “legitimate strategic interests”.
You suggest that people turn off the MSM and listen Mearshiemer. For starters the idea that the solution to a single view you disagree with is a different single view but just one you do agree with is hardly a serious proposition. I’d also be curious as to...
The bloke talking about the ‘Rothschilds’ isn’t imo, nor are the execution threats, not was the spitting at bus drivers, or the harassment of school kids, or NW workers or the Uni students or the journalists or the fires, or the paving stones, or the shit ...
And your handwringing and treating grown adults as children devoid of agency perpetual victims of ‘society’ helps? It’s patently obvious that a large number of the people involved aren’t vulnerable, they’ve actively chosen to embrace appalling views. They ...
This again… Given all evidence to the contrary, we’re supposed to just accept a sanitised view of what they were protesting. What were the people talking about ‘Rothschilds’ protesting, or those with execution lists? I’ve seen protestors spreading bizarre ...
Surely that works both ways? The mob have made it pretty clear they’re not interested in communication, understanding and acceptance, they simply demand it of the rest of us. As for forgiveness, what are we to make of that as a claim from people who have ...
Ah yes, I remember thinking when marching through London with the Syrian community on an Amnesty organised March in response to Assad’s thugs beating peaceful protestors prior to a single shot being fired in the war “Feels good to be a stooge of American ...
Given Russia and China have a veto, I’m genuinely curious as to what you think the UN can do?
Yes, but it’s not only the alt right, it’s also true of the left as well.
Monbiot on a phenomenon that has direct relevance to some of the Putin apologist bs posted here. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/mar/02/russian-propaganda-anti-imperialist-left-vladimir-putin?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
The police seem to be giving the impression it’s no longer a ‘large number’. Obviously even a small number can make an area unsafe, but hopefully they’ll be able to finish things off quite quickly.
Some people have an astonishing ability to wish away inconvenient facts if acknowledging them undermines a central plank of their world view. So for many anti vaxxers they won’t ever bring themselves to acknowledge the presence of the anti semites, the neo...
Reading the comments on these Ukrainian posts has been a depressing reminder that some people on the left manage to justify some truly morally repugnant views, so long as they blanket them in reflexive anti Americanism.
If Russia has no interest in controlling its neighbours and preventing them determining their own future, where does this fear for their existence come from?
“ Nato's advance east is that threat.” How? If Russia doesn’t have imperialist ambitions what’s the threat? Are you saying it’s credible NATO would fire missiles on Moscow? John Mearshiemer when he tells of this usually falls back on Napoleon and Hitler as...
“but they'll never win against a prolonged insurrection” Indeed, then what is a Putin’s end game? An attempt to Groznify Ukraine whilst the West cripples the Russian economy? How long would the Russian military/people have the stomach for that against 40m ...
Ok, even if we humoured you and bought this narrative about Ukrainian effectively being controlled by Neo Nazis, your response to Russian war crimes against civilians is what….
I’m genuinely curious as to how Zelezney a Jew with family killed the Holocaust fits into this agenda…sorry narrative.
Some people intent on using violence to hold the country to ransom are I imagine going to cause a bunch of criminal damage and end up in confrontations with the cops. Hopefully the public stay out of the way and mob get arrested. We’re lucky in this ...
Sorry, what ‘segregation’? Are you arguing that people who reject established science should have been allowed to continue on as normal despite the increased risk they provided to everyone else and what? Anyone who didn’t want to share a work space an ECE ...
I think it’s frankly insulting to either compare this to the Springbok protests which was a huge movement drawn from people right across NZ society which united not merely what they believed but how the acted, or that these people are simply poor and ...
Please tell me they didn’t actually chant that?
On its own no, but it could be done in a manner which did. Having said, there’s nothing to suggest the Police has done anything that can’t be justified as a proportionate use of force in the circumstances.
He needs answers NOW! Ok! Mate, you’ve got COVID, go home or if necessary a hospital
