Just goes to show how hypocritical the left really is

 

[pustal]

Even if partially true, Russian poeple are really not liking the War.


Oh and several hundred more arrested for protesting (100%true )

If not true, you had a platoon early yesterday surrendering because they had no intention to kill Ukranians.

Regardless, Chechns are coming, and not the ones Putin silenced, the crazy ones he put in power. It'll make up for any low morale the current Russian troops may have or not.

Yeah, 'cause killing school children and foreign invaders is the same thing, right? /s

Well they were already there it seems.

And at least they started the best way:

Column of Russian special forces defeated near Hostomel "Kadyrovites," named so for the Head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov.

According to Channel 24 sources, the Ukrainian military blew up an echelon of 56 tanks that included General Magomed Tushayev, who was killed.

Did he ever find his cat?

Lol I was reading that Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov (reported BadAss, who threaten to kill children and women) has been reported (by several agencies) to be killed without setting an actually foot on Ukraine.
I would like to thank All countries that provide intel and logistics on all Russian troops and forwarding them to Ukrainian military.

No major news outlet is confirming his death or even mentioning he is unconfirmed to have been killed, and im not going to trust govt statements during a war (its all just propaganda, no matter which side you agree with or like what the statement says).

I've never seen so much disinformation flooding social media, and its going unchecked. From twitter, fb, reddit, and tiktok, fake videos, years old photos being pegged as taken today, outrageous statements with no evidence or source to back them up, get watched and shared hundreds of thousands of times, and unknown news websites writing articles about it treating it as fact, which then get shared back onto social media to somehow verify the claims.
Be aware of what your are reading about the war and think about if its misinformation or not. Avoid social media unless they use a valid source.

Are you implying that the Right kills school children and foreign invaders?
What kinda crack you smoking out the Binen pipe?

WORLD WAR III

Sure seems like it will happen. I would hope not, but sanctions clearly aren't working, and seem to just be wasting valuable time.

I don't know what is going to happen, but I can't help but feel that

 

[pustal]

No, I'm affirmating AR-15s kill schoolchildren in the US while they have a legit civil use (defend against foreign invaders) on Ukraine. Read my earlier posts. If you have difficulty getting what I wrote I say you are the one smoking something.

And unlike shillers here, I have no horse in the game, it's not my country that has a number of school shootings at memable levels, just like to call bullshit when I hear it. A benefit of living in a gun-regulated society: zero school shootings, negligible gun related deaths. And we also don't have crack here, a benefit of living in a country where drug usage is taken as a health issue and not criminal issue and having a universal healthcare system

Kyiv Independent, as the name implies is an independent news outlet. And it was cited in this matter by Foreign Press. They could have been pressured, but what would have Ukraine have to gain with it in modern times, where he could simply make a video right after commenting the news and disprove them?

 

[UltraDolphinRevolution]

You still have to feed the electrical grid. Russia convinced Germany to give up on nuclear to become dependent on fossil again. Renewals are the future, yes, but the present is still fossil, unfortunately.

Yes, Russia is to blame for your tooth ache as well. The nuclear accident in Japan caused Germans to panic. Had nothing to do with Russia.

It's 3 month old twitter account, their website is a word press blog. It doesnt matter what they call themselves, its a completly unknown and untrustworthy news outlet.

Propaganda is there to boost morale, prevent soliders from abandoning their fight, especially their civillian fighters. Winning an impossible battle. Maybe even get more people to fight for them. Thats its purpose and also to mislead people from outside the country that they are winning, where as they get more donations and supplies. They have everything to gain from pushing out propaganda just like any country throughout history involved in conflicts.

Liberals gonna liberal. Leftists know we need guns because fascists have them too, and Putin is being maximum fascist right now.

I've never seen so much disinformation flooding social media, and its going unchecked.

Well yeah, most of that is coming from Russian troll farms (hired by the Kremlin). Short of generating actual support for a baseless invasion, they'll turn to sowing chaos and discord on the internet instead.

 

[pustal]

Yes, yes. And Schröder being given a chairman role of Rosneft and now Gazprom is a perfectly innocent coincidence.

The guns don't load and pull the trigger by themselves!
It takes a special kinda special person to think otherwise.
Also I am glad you don't have a Communist government that would throw you in prison for years and ruin your life for a victimless crime, like we do.
You have been mislead on the freedoms of the USA and the reason we need guns.
We are a Communist country as of late, and the only thing stopping the USA from going complete communist, is our GUNS AND BRAVERY OF THE AMERICAN PATRIOTS!!!
Anything less would be uncivilized.

I am not vouching for them but the newspaper is recent yes. It was created by journalists from the Kyiv Post. Last year the Post was bought and last November the new owner fired all the journalists for disagreeing with him. The Kyiv Independent is formed by fired journalists from the Post. The made with the resources they had but they have their reputation on the line.

And yeah, but even if it was propaganda, with would be counterproductive and really dumb if they could be disproven right the next moment.

Corruption in politics is not an Eastern phenomenon. Happens everywhere (in the West it tends to be more privatized). Putin mocked Germans for rejecting nuclear power (more or less a quote: "they don´t want coal, they don´t want nuclear power. do they want to use wood? then they need to come to Siberia"). The idea that Russia is behind the German fear of nuclear power is idiotic. It has been part of German discourse since the cold war. They are not afraid of being nuked though as they allow the US full access to their country. I was in Germany during the Japanese accident and you could feel the wind changing. Even Merkel changed her view.

"The guns don't load and pull the trigger by themselves!", yes, that's exactly why you don't put them in the hands of the common Joe and hope for the best unless absolutely necessary, like in Ukraine.

And calling US communist just shows how deeply down the rabbit hole and far out of reality you are. You have absolutely no notion of what Communism is. You don't even have a social democracy and you have a two party system comprised of a right party, liberal or neo-liberal party and a more-to-the-right than right party, conservative, now alt-right or far right.

And like I said before

It baffles me how the US right appeals for patriotism while appealing for their own government fear (not to mention the 'alt' version of it that appeals to undermine it entirely).

The right and you show more love for your guns than you have for your people. Patriotism is not about the love of your guns, it's about the love of your people.

Nord Stream negotiations where in 2005. Fukushima was in 2011. Fukushima was an excuse to go through with the project, I'm sure it helped with Merkel, but it's naive to think she didn't have other pressures, political or otherwise. More than Merkel, Fukushima swaded the German public perception more than any political intentions.

Also, directly from Wikipedia:

Ethical issues​

The former Chancellor of Germany, Gerhard Schröder, and the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, were strong advocates of the pipeline project during the negotiation phase. International media alluded to a past relationship between the managing director of Nord Stream AG, Matthias Warnig, himself a former East German secret police officer, and Vladimir Putin when he was a KGB agent in East Germany.[161][162][163][164] These allegations were denied by Matthias Warnig, who said that he had met Vladimir Putin for the first time in his life in 1991, when Putin was the head of the Committee for External Relations of the Saint Petersburg Mayor's Office.[164][165]

The agreement to build the pipeline was signed ten days before the German parliamentary election. On 24 October 2005, a few weeks before Schröder had stepped down as Chancellor, the German government guaranteed to cover €1 billion of the Nord Stream project cost, should Gazprom default on a loan. However, this guarantee expired at the end of 2006 without ever having been needed.[166] Soon after leaving the post of Chancellor of Germany, Gerhard Schröder agreed to head the shareholders' committee of Nord Stream AG. This has been widely described by German and international media as a conflict of interest,[167][168][169] the implication being that the pipeline project may have been pushed through for personal gain rather than for improving gas supplies to Germany. Information about the German government's guarantee was requested by the European Commission. No formal charges have been filed against any party despite years of exhaustive investigations.[166]

In February 2009, the Swedish prosecutor's office started an investigation based on suspicions of bribery and corruption after a college on the island of Gotland received a donation from Nord Stream. The 5 million Swedish kronor (US$574,000) donation was directed to a professor at Gotland University College who had previously warned that the Nord Stream pipeline would come too close to a sensitive bird zone.[170] The consortium has hired several former high-ranking officials, such as Ulrica Schenström, former undersecretary at the Swedish Prime Minister's office, and Dan Svanell, former press secretary for several politicians in the Swedish Social Democratic Party.[171] In addition, the former Prime Minister of Finland, Paavo Lipponen, had worked for Nord Stream as an adviser since 2008.[172]

So what? Nord Stream 1 and 2 are ways to diversify pipeline options for Russia. How is that an attempt at attacking German nuclear power?
