Do the spooks get public authorization now? Isn’t this bad for the organic opposition and people’s uprising narrative that they might want to pull off?

A slur mainly on the internet against those leftist (usually Marxists-leninist) who oppose western interventions, sanctions, coups and wars against countries and governments labeled as “authoritarian”.

originally used by UK communists party trotskyist wing in support of Hungarian -56 crushed uprising against those who opposed it, calling them tankies. Vaguely same as “stalinist”, but it pretty much has lost that meaning in modern use.

it will not abide by the humanitarian terms of the ceasefire agreement.

I would have thunk that the end of days were upon us if Is*ael didn’t pull something so scummy right from the start.

For the whole war AFU has been a supported by and is a a training ground for not just drug cartels, but also Jihadists and neonazis, and it’s not really inflitration if they accept anybody who is ready to fight for money or just hates russia for their own reasons. Ukraine as a whole is also a massive black market weapons depot for all of the worlds militants and criminals because of the systemic corruption the country.

The most convincing argument of why nothing will happen is that an another forever war would basically sacrifice Taiwan, Ukraine and Iran project. US is peaceful when all the warhawks can’t agree on what country they should coup or bomb next.

This Gaza seize fire could however mean that they want to give themselves some space to either go after Iran again or attempt to do Venezuela quickly.

Wasn’t Dark souls Lost Izalith modeled after Angor Wat? I can see the vibes in that tree.

Is it just called rust crab?

Some good money in that. One has to however take into account the cost on your soul.

Neocons: “This means russia is weak, we should escalate more”

Zelensky’s actions only make no sense if one thinks he is doing what’s best for Ukraine and ukrainians and is still intrerested in winning this war. In my opinion it’s been quite obvious that Zelensky’s and the goal of his close circle is to fight this war, not to make peace and ride this war as long as possible. Not to victory, because that seemed unlikely in 2022 and it seems almost impossible now. The goal is to stay in saddle until the collapse comes and then flee with the money and remain Ukraine’s western recognize president in exile for life and keep living large with all the money he has and will have. If peace comes through peace agreement he will be the president that lost Ukraine and has to step down and the radicals who kept him in power will probably kill him as a traitor for betraying Ukraine.

Zelensky’s goal therefore is not victory, but control. Control over the goverment and especially the military, ideological batalions and intelligence apparatus and such. Those will keep the war going, Russians away from Kiev, people in line and his political opponents silent. Those will help him ride out this war.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the incursion could not be a mistake - it was “an obvious expansion of the war by Russia”. Moscow has not commented on the Romanian claims.

Poland I can believe, as a one time Russian mistake or guidance error, but Romania on the other side of Ukraine, not next to Russia or Belarus. I’m now supposed to believe that these decoy drones are suddenly just flying across Ukraine to Romania?

It’s fucking Ukraine who is sending these. This is the Russian s-300 missile kills polish farmers of 2022 all over again. Remember when that was totally the case that Russia killed poles and Zelensky said this is a mark of Russian aggression and Nato would need to intervene. Then it was pretty quickly stated S-300 didn’t have the range to fly from Russian AA battery across Ukraine and into Poland and then they discovered that the missile was an model that only Ukraine had anymore. So everybody went hush hush and it was written down as an tragic accident.

Ukraine is the one who is losing and needs Nato intervention to not lose totally or have to settle for peace that Kiev doesn’t want. Or am I just going to have to believe that out of the blue for 4 year of war Russia suddenly starts pelting neighboring countries with not scout drones, not drones with warheads, but with a decoy drones that have been falling over Ukraine almost nightly air raids for years now, since unless they are shot down as they are supposed to they just fall down on the ground with very little harm to the drone. Why? Russia preparing for an attack, sending a message? It’s Ukraine who is doing this. They want a no fly zone, boots on the ground, and Nato AA in Ukraine, because Kiev are dry regarding AA and will lose the war otherwise if they don’t get Europeans to die for them too.

I hope whatever platform you end up using also provides other formats than mp3. Like ogg is superior replacement, or flac for lossless.

Macron won’t allow that. They already pulled serious fuckery over the popular front and national rally just to get into government. They are even more unpopular now than they were in 2024.

Hamas knows that they won’t accept and that this war never about the hostages to begin with. IDF would be quite happy to slit their throats themselves if it allowed them to destroy Hamas and kill Gaza quicker. It’s just PR for Hamas, they are the reasonable ones wanting peace and release of the hostages, but US and Israel refuse.

No connection, no hackers.

Yeah because class isn’t about net worth but about how you primarily make your money. If you have to go to work or are expected to go to work to keep a roof over your head then you are working class. If your income is primarily owning things and from other people going to work to keep a roof over their heads then you are part of the bourgeoisie.

Also in this inflation, we’ll soon all be millionaires.

You are still rolling the dice whenever you really need some specific specialized proprietary software. Especially if you need to get it running ASAP and without major issues. It might work out of the box with wine, or it might not. You just don’t know and that

Gaming is better, but it’s still gaming, just toys.

Iran really should just get the nukes. US and Israel won’t treat them any worse if they do. The problem isn’t Iran having nukes or even having a nuclear program, It’s Iran having a non US and Israel boot licking goverment in power. Nukes are a problem because they would make overthrowing Tehran prohibitively complicated and dangerous.

Are being a puppet and getting tricked mutually exclusive to you? Intelligence assets rarely have the full picture of what their handlers plans for them or their target are. Most of them think or are made to think that they are indispensable to the their masters.

Really hard to think that al-Julani consciously accepted to shake hands with western high level politicians and made the new free Syrian leader one day and the next Israeli media is making him the next Osama bin laden, while he has to flee Damascus because Israeli bombs.

Syria’s Zelensky learned the hard way not to trust the Israeli’s or the Americans.
