Recruits who sign up to die shooting Soviet-era rifles at Russian battle tanks are not defending “world peace” or democracy or freedom or anything like that. They are sacrificing themselves to convenience some peripheral interests of western globalism, which is responsible for all manner of armed conflict around the world, and which could not be less interested in these quaint liberal abstractions. We are in the end stage of liberalism now, an end stage in which most liberal political forms have been set aside in favour of a naked if distributed autocracy.

My post on Ukraine yielded many angry emails and some angry comments. Many believe that I need to support the Ukrainians in their fight for freedom and national autonomy. The truth is, that the Ukrainians are the proxy of the Global American Empire, and that is the only reason that the media has called upon westerners to care about this conflict, rather than any others.

Lockdowns weren’t a one-off; the vaccinators don’t just vaccinate. The enemies who have oppressed us these past two years are appendages of a much broader system. Climatism, anti-racism, transgender lunacy, Corona, and now the Ukraine: They are all of them expressions of the same malign force; they are all of them the same thing.

I've seen this one many times already, most shared video I think of old man complaining about something (speaking Ukrainian?) This war looks seriously rough. Reminds me of Iraq videos, but those were less common and US military bombed the shit out of everything a lot more prior to military entering. IMO all these armored vehicles are simply a dated relic, too easily taken out by modern weapons. What's the point of a tank when a foot soldier with a javelin can take one out? Kinda glad US military is strong as hell, so shit like that doesn't happen here.

Ukraine is fucked

Last night, Russian missiles hit his training base in Lviv, which is in the far west of Ukraine, near the Polish border:

Yes, I was here today and blown off the top bunk of my bunk bed in the barracks by the first missile.


LOL, they guy says he's active USMC and is currently in Lviv, but posts no verifiable pictures of his mug in front of recognizeable landmark? Wanna buy a bridge, Pat?

Supposedly a bunch of idiot twat volunteers "mercenaries" took a bunch of selfies when they got to Lviv and posted it on social media.

NATURALLY the Russians are watching, identified the location based on background features, and killed anywhere from 30 or so of them to 200.

I notice yet another change of tone on Russia-sponsored propaganda channels. In the past, the message shifted from "Russia won't invade" to "Russia is here to stay" and "Easy win for Russia", then to "Ukrainians shouldn't sacrifice their lives". Not in the pure form, it's always a bit of a mix, but there's a vector.

I'm now seeing glimpses of something new: "We are fighting against entire west", "We are the protectors against Nazis", "Moral savagery of Ukrainians". I.e. something that aims at gaining moral ground, assuming the pose of a victim even.

This is a big change from the muscle-flexing and "woe to the losers" message that they were pushing in the early days.

I don't recall them ever indicating that.

Anyhow, time will tell what the outcome is. I can't imagine Russia losing, but we'll see.

Given the amount of propaganda we have in the US now about this war, I expect this to be a very decisive military win for Russia, and I expect all US assets in Ukraine to be ultimately removed - from Hunter Biden's bullshit job, to the biological "research" labs. It's just a question of how many people are going to die.

The fall of Ukraine will be portrayed as "those evil Russians and poor Ukrainians!" - regardless of what the end result is for the Ukrainians. If Russia entirely destroyed the oligarchy and removed all the corruption of Ukraine (I know that's not going to happen) it will still be "those poor Ukrainians!"

But time will tell.

I think you're right @richwicks

One constant will be lies in the corporate media and fools who simply believe whatever lies make them feel better in some way.

Are you saying that you follow Russia-sponsored propaganda channels? In Russian? See, it's important to follow the message intended for internal consumption. I've already assumed that you do, so it's a rhetorical question. Shall we compare notes, comrade?

About Russia not losing? This may be a good time to put ourselves on record, just to see who's model is closer to reality. We just need to define what "losing" vs "not losing" is.

Are you getting your news from Globalist-sponsored propaganda channels, the same ones who claimed the COVID vaccine was essential and extolled Fauci's claim it "works" on all the variants, too? That said 1/6 was as bad or worse than Pearl Harbor and 9/11? That claims the inflation is not monetary caused, but caused by Putin and "Big Business" taking on a few extra pennies?

Not at all! Specific comment that triggered the "mostly writer" was obtained from the opposite of what you describe as Globalist-sponsored propaganda. It was obtained from pro-Russian sources.

Here's one example: ...

This guy is a definition of a Rashist, and his narrative confirm to the dot this new development in the pattern that I described.

Edit: removing the URL because I don't want to promote Nazis. Will unicast if someone is interested, as long as it's not shared publicly. It's in Russian, no translation.

I do not follow any corporate or state sponsored propaganda

It is a total waste of time to listen to any of it. I cannot stress this enough. If you are wasting any time listening to something that is called "news", you're listening to a narrative to control a population. That's its ONLY purpose and has been for at least 30 years in this country.

Pravda has no truth, and Izvestia has no news. Well, do you think that changed?

If you want to have any hint of truth, go read Samizdat. It might not be correct, but it's not designed to create a narrative.

And this:

I don't think you have to worry about Nazis here, honestly. I've only met one person that comes close to a fanatic, and he's a Shikh.

You know what I think is going on? I think the US is about to go into hyperinflation, and that China and Russia were about to dump the dollar regardless. The assholes that be in the United States and Europe needed something to blame the collapse on, besides them. They are doing cartwheels that they finally got Putin to do something. They've been trying for 20 years to get this outcome.

So here's the summary:
- I point out a specific pattern in Russian-biased propaganda
- You quickly step in and state that you observe no such thing
- You then state that you don't follow Russian propaganda sources.

That reference to Russian-biased sources was a fundamental part of my point. Which, I see, escaped you. If only your reading prowess were close to your writing prowess.

List some sources instead of being coy.

I've been using NON-Congress Party Indian Sources often. English and a different perspective from a Non-Western but Non-Communist source.

I care about what the Russian government says.

I ignore propaganda unless it comes from the government.

This is the funny thing, today, the Russian government is more credible than the American government is.

I realize I can still be seeing propaganda from a government official. I know that, but who am I listening to? Some asshole on Russian television?

I expect and understand propaganda is used, but I don't know how much control the Russian government has over their media. In the US, it's absolute now.

Like Youtube - which is Google. IF they make their money from the advertisements there (and they don't) they would want to have as many viewers as possible. Instead, they engage in very clear political censorship. As a result, there is Rumble, Odysee, Bitchute, Brand New Tube, Brighteon, Daily Motion, D-live (live only), Freevoice, New Tube, and others that exist ONLY BECAUSE youtube does censorship. Rumble is a clear competitor, Bitchute is as well. I see cute dog and cat videos on Rumble too, it's very general.

Our media, is all government controlled. This is an error. The government needs feedback so they can know when they are fucking wrong, and doing something stupid. That was the strength of our country once.

I don't know how much Russian media is controlled, but it can't be worse than the USSR's control.

Could be staged, quite easily.

BTW that monitor is quite odd. I understand there's widespread poverty there, but that monitor looks like a late 1990's television or computer screen. You can tell both by the thickness of it, and the size of it.

Russians and Ukrainians pride themselves in making items last for generations. They consider the west quite wasteful and lacking in resourcefulness when westerners replace serviceable equipment. Also, not sure that area has transitioned to OTA digital broadcasts. May still need a SECAM TV to get television.

I'd agree the west is quite wasteful.

I'm on a 7 year old computer. I'll upgrade when it becomes worthwhile to reduce the energy consumption and I'm not certain that will happen any time soon. This thing is still a beast but eventually, the cost of the energy to power this will require it to be replaced.

A product is proportional to the energy it takes to make, when a product's energy consumption outstrips the cost of the device + the energy consumption, time to dump it. This machine I'm on, can simulate every machine I ever owned up until 2000, and uses less energy than the original machines used to do it. If I want to play a Playstation 1 or an SNES, it doesn't make sense to use the original hardware in any sense.

Quite an impressive time we live in. BTW - both of those machines can be simulated on a 10 watt raspberry pi computer. It's mind blowing.
