Making all kinds of reasonable claims?

i don't disagree with most stuff he says but he fails to say certain things or fails to make them more clear (in my view).
(if me being him) would make it more clear that the paranoid Kremlin gangsters' demands for a buffer zone in CEE is not any sort of a rightful claim. and when the paranoid Kremlin gangsters invade CEE (and commit atrocities) because they "were forced to do so by others" (be it this or that "fascists") it is a typical abuser's tale. that's all (that's all my reservations).

why should Lencho leave?
i guess he knows we love him (i do!).
having a mild dispute is not an assault!
besides, we mostly agree than disagree (we both see the ultimate goal of humankind to be achieving acid communism!).

[rischka]

i hope he would not

Oh I fully agree with you! Just that most younger political youtubers are making 95% false claims, even the people who hate Russia, so it was nice to see someone making a bunch of correct stuff, even if it's flawed. I thought this was gonna be the best analysis anyways because this is the guy who took the time to look into the history of Russia and Ukraine.

Bonnie & Clyde liberated!

At a Victory Day concert, Putin’s clowns placed a photo of American robbers Bonnie and Clyde on the screen.

RossTV showed Bonnie and Clyde as “victims of war” at a concert by May 9
The robbers were shown among the couples who were separated by the Second World War.

During the festive concert dedicated to the Victory Day, a photograph was placed on the stage screen, according to the organizer of the concert – happy people who survived Nazism and rejoiced at the liberation from Soviet soldiers. Only now it turned out that the photo was of the famous American robbers – Bonnie and Clyde

So, during the performance of the song “If there was no war” about the bitter loss of a woman who did not find love because of the war, a slide show with photographs of couples separated by the Second World War was shown against the background.
Among these couples, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, American robbers who operated during the Great Depression, wormed their way.

seeing reports doctors in red states are afraid to treat miscarriages now. oklahoma passed a law banning abortion immediately post-fertilization. and some health apps that track menstrual cycle are subject to surveillance. this is a nightmare

[rischka]

don't think we don't know this is a long-term goal of white supremacists.

i got an anti-fascist iron front tattoo. i know it won't help but it makes me feel better

Conservative Political Action Conference is in hungary this week. viktor orban was their keynote speaker. so it's very clear where this is heading

and yet no one i know seems the least concerned...

[rischka]

still on twitter break

[Silga]

Here in Lithuania, we already written off Hungary as a 'lost' country and a tumor of the EU, at least until Orban is in power.

Poland is not far away. While they are, of course, against Russia and do great job in helping Ukraine, everything else is almost in line with Hungary and US GOP. EU has already threatened to cut off some financing if they keep their homophobic laws, repress other human rights (including abortion) and keep their courts politicized.
