The koch brothers were behind the tea party, and ive never seen anything linking them to russia.

At a guess that astroturf movement was hijacked by others but im not sure we can pin much of that on russia specifically.

One theory is putin is desperate to bait a nato attack he can spin as nato entering the ukraine war so he can retreat (or maybe escalate) while saving face.

Im not entirely convinced but its a solid enough theory

The other groups who do this are animal rights and anti-abortionists. I think its for the best, yeah

And you need a blank tape to copy to, the makers of which did have to pay a charge to content firms to cover piracy.

In this tortured analogy the blanks are also included in the ai firm product, so yes they would have had to pay

Porn and everything else that could potentially have porn. So everything.

The only reason to not shoot them down is cos it gives away the behaviour of the defence systems.

Best if we can find some 90s tech to shoot them with to keep putin guessing

Don’t worry NK, you’re also nothing without china

I have autoplay disabled, how is this cheeky video playing

Sure, NATO shouldn’t though as it’s a defensive alliance and palastine isn’t a member.

Same as NATO shouldn’t be intervening in Congo.

This is not complicated.

Russia explicitly said they started the war to prevent sovreign nations choosing to join NATO. It’s literally in opposition to NATO.

Totally different situation to Israel, and not really anything to do with the USAs position on either.

Terrible take.

“faces down” does not mean “surrendered to”

There’s a reason they’re called the Chair Force

It’s not that I don’t believe them, but anything coming from spooks has to be looked at a little sideways.

Thanks for the reply. I just couldn’t figure out how they had enough intelligence to find all these telegram groups, maybe that’s easier for a nation state than I thought.

There were reports (claims I suppose) that the fsb were using telegram to organise the stochastic gig job sabotage across Europe.

Joining a neo fash telegram group, pretending to be a rich neo fash who wants to help the cause but not risk themselves and paying people for putting up posters, damaging equipment etc.

Does what has been found here shed any more light on that? I’d guess it would allow them to find these groups to target them very easily? That was the bit I couldn’t quite understand from the original report, if so this all makes more sense.

I agree with some commentators cleverer than me, the current state of the war economy is so extreme that it’ll be crippled by both continued war and also by peace.

The longer it goes on the worse the resolution will be

Trying to fight the EU in a trade war is truly mud wrestling a pig.

Well, everyone who wasn’t a slave, or foreign, or a woman,or… etc.

Yes of course. But she doesn’t need to appeal to the American electorate for her job. I’m not sure what point you think you’re making?

Why compare a European activist to two American politicians?

Of course they try to get on with the American right, they need their votes.

Blessed relief from the spider venom , jellyfish stings, croc bites.
