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.
It provides fertilizer but needs “some food”.
How much food and what is it?
Typically for aquariums you have to feed these things fertilizer so it seems odd
If you can’t trust lebedev’s newspaper on russian related matters who could you trust?
Fuck no this is a technocrat idea?!
Hahahaha. Those fucking idiots had ideas so bad they’re going to destroy the USA a hundred years later. Amazing
The raw numbers maybe obscure this but aren’t the popularity levels are really about how far along the radicalisation they are?
People start watching for the lifestyle and fitness then end up believing the other stuff and watching for that. I guess women stall out more because who could believe that kind of stuff about themselves?
I suppose if you use that definition then when America invaded it became a failed state run by warlords and now it has recovered.
The thing to understanding crashes is that they’re a crude signal of an underlying reality. Not a thing in themselves.
This isn’t like the 2008 crash, or any other, because the reality that’s causing the number to go down is totally different. Except maybe the great depression. It’s a bit like that.
There was a story about two teens in Germany recruited to a private discord through I think Roblox, a bellingcat podcast on use of games as recruitment mentioned it.
The act of helping in the game builds trust fast and speeds up the recruitment.
Luckily these two went to the police after the blackmail/encouragement/ conditioning escalated to performing real world violence.
How many others didn’t? Or were pushed slower so they were more caught up?
Awful stuff. And we have the UK shutting down local biking forums and fedi servers to protect children.
A different reason every day
PPP is difficult with defence spending, especially when nations are running a war economy and recruiting prisoners for free
The us spends that much more than anyone, including its enemies.
The us just spends way too much. Matching us defence spending is kind of a lot. Combined the EU current defence spending is second only to the us
There’s a reason they’re called the Chair Force
