It isn't Russian boosterism. It's truth boosterism.

But you (you specifically) have been catastrophically wrong on all your Russian boosterism predictions here at Patnet.

Not just a little wrong. But MacGreggor level of embarrassing wrong with all your cocksure predictions that turn out 180 degrees opposite.

Give socal2 specific instances of where he is wrong. It's not enough to tell somebody they are wrong, they need to understand how they are wrong. This is the only way to change thinking, IF you want to do that.

This is to both of your benefit, provided that neither of you are propagandists, and there's many people that work for free being propagandists because they have been manipulated into not only believing they are correct, but also believe their viewpoint is just and moral.

I'm not a Christian, but the truth will actually set you free. You may not like freedom though. The real prison most of society is, is in their mind. MOST people believe absolute nonsense, and act upon it, and this is why I don't consider them people anymore. I've tried, for decades. If the state says 2+2=5, most people would call me crazy for saying it actually is 4. I mean, they'd have heard it on the news, wouldn't they?

I can't convince an MIT graduate that the US overthrew Ukraine in 2014, despite having BLATANT EVIDENCE the US did. He's not stupid, at all, he's just not human. After a point, you have to leave the herd behind. I can't save them, I can't even make them think.

Elon Musk, new owner of the world’s largest media platform, is now looking at the border problem. Late last night, Elon echoed yesterday’s C&C headline:



Not to quibble or anything, and I know he’s just making a point, but we’re actually wiring Ukraine way over 100 times what we’re spending on the border crisis. Compare the billions we’ve sent Ukraine in the last two years with how little has been appropriated to handle the surge at the U.S.’s border.

Speaking of Republican budgets, on Thursday night House Republicans voted 117-101 against sending another $300 million to help secure Ukraine’s borders. Per conference rules, Ukraine funding is now dead and cannot be voted on anymore this budget cycle.




Hardest hit by the failed vote were Robert L. Peters and a clutch of Ukrainian oligarchs. It might finally be time to take the ugly Ukrainian flag out of your social media bio pic and move on to the next virtue-signaling thing. Just think about it.

Yesterday, in the wake of news that Ukraine is now seeking to extradite Ukrainian draft-dodgers from European countries to feed its Counteroffensive human meat grinder, Russia Today ran a story headlined, “Putin eases entry rules for Ukrainians.”

Russia’s new immigration decree, published yesterday, allows Ukrainian citizens to enter Russia without visas or even a valid passport, allowing for a number of new alternative forms of I.D. that displaced Ukrainian citizens can use. Kids can enter Russia with just a birth certificate.

It appears that a whole lot of Ukrainians aren’t so sure that Putin is the dictatorial monster that Joe Biden says he is. According to Russia’s TASS news service, over 5.2 million Ukrainians have relocated to Russia since January. The article allowed that independent analytics company Statista pegged the number lower, at a still-impressive 1.27 million, which is still more than Germany (1.09 million) or Poland (968,000).

It seems to be a one-way phenomenon. I couldn’t find any statistics about Russians moving to Ukraine, for some reason.

Last weekend, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan privately told McConnell that it would be impossible to sustain Ukraine’s fight against Russia for the next month and a half without additional funding. Not including more aid in the CR would impose significant financial and symbolic harm on Ukraine’s government, they warned.

It's likely the United States will "encourage" the EU to temporarily fund Ukraine, and make up for it in some other way.

This war won't end for at least another year, and I expect it to go on for several.

Formidable NATO strikes again.

Finally, in more bad news for the corrupt oligarchy of Ukraine and its flagging battle to protect its borders, which have been overrun by illegal Russian migrants, Russia Today ran a story yesterday headlined, “EU fails to unblock €5 billion aid to Ukraine.”

After Hungary vetoed the vote on the current aid package, E.U. ministers promised they will try again next year. Oh well. The Counteroffensive is almost over anyway.

In the West, top officials are actively speaking on how Putin plans to “fatigue” the West into giving up on Ukraine, while Russian officials like Medvedev are openly admitting to this fact, and stating that the West will give up on Ukraine soon.

The West has never looked weaker, not only in general, but specifically vis a vis their support for Ukraine. All of their recent attempts at portraying a unified front look increasingly hollow and desperate. The facade is literally falling apart before our very eyes, showcased most poignantly in this Sky News interview with Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko, which was taken down soon after because of how inconvenient her “slip ups” were in admitting that Russia is winning the war...

Nuland and Blinken thought they were going to weaken Russia by drawing it into an endless quagmire, but the result is looking like the opposite, with the US getting weaker because the war keeps dragging on.

Politico ran a story yesterday that should really tell us everything we need to know headlined, “Ukraine is ‘freaking out’ as McCarthy chaos threatens US aid.” Ukraine’s corrupt oligarchs are worrying that the money train has reached its final destination.

Politico summarized the problem in one short paragraph:

"McCarthy’s historic ousting — no other U.S. House speaker has been deposed before — (came) after Congress voted through an emergency domestic funding package to avert a government shutdown. That deal, a stop-gap 45-day budget to keep the government running, featured no aid to Ukraine.
Now that McCarthy is out, all future U.S. funding for Kyiv is in limbo."

Ukraine’s corrupt oligarchs in were badly triggered by McCarthy’s removal. “We are freaking out. For us it is a disaster,” said Ivanna Klympush-Tsintsadze, a senior Ukrainian MP who chairs the committee on the country’s integration with the European Union.

The article stopped short of coming out and saying explicitly McCarthy is sitting in Ukraine’s breast pocket. Instead it framed the story as uncertainty over who McCarthy’s replacement will be. Ominously, Politico reported that “the Ukrainian government insists it has built constructive relationships with most potential replacements for the speaker’s post and is continuing to work with American lawmakers on the next package of aid.”

The bottom line is, the Ukrainians are upset that McCarthy is gone. Somebody start keeping track; that’s a “plus one” in the Gaetz column.

When you live under an empire that’s held together by lies, you’ll be asked to believe a lot of intensely stupid bullshit. Here are the top ten dumbest things the propagandists of the US-centralized empire try to get us to swallow.

1. That the US war machine has been surrounding its top two rivals China and Russia with war machinery as an act of defense, rather than an extremely provocative act of aggression.

2. That the war in Ukraine simultaneously (A) was completely unprovoked, and (B) just coincidentally happens to massively advance US strategic interests and therefore should be funded as much as possible.

3. That, okay, all those other wars were based on lies and resulted in disaster, but that couldn’t possibly be the case for this current war.

4. That your country’s foreign policy is determined by your official elected government, even though the foreign policy remains the same regardless of who is in office.

5. That it is only by pure coincidence that your nation’s population remains in a perpetual 50–50 deadlock which prevents anyone’s votes from changing the status quo, and the status quo just happens to be perpetually frozen along lines that hugely advantage the rich and powerful.

6. That the only reason anyone could possibly be critical of the most dangerous impulses of the world’s most powerful and destructive government is if they are a secret agent working for the enemies of that government.

7. That the western empire which spent the last two decades murdering Muslims in the Middle East suddenly cares very deeply about the Muslims in China.

8. That Putin invaded Ukraine solely because he is evil and hates freedom, and that the empire is pouring weapons into Ukraine because it loves Ukrainians and wants to protect their freedom and democracy.

9. That foreign propaganda and influence operations are significantly manipulating the way westerners think and vote, but the plutocrats who fully control all the most influential platforms in the western world are not.

10. That we need to be worrying about tyrannical enemies in Beijing and Moscow, instead of tyrannical enemies a lot closer to home.

Foreign occupied foreign city state of Washington DC press ganged by Globalist neocons to fight their ancient rivalry Satanic wars in Eurasia as if it matters here. Our resources have been parasitically deployed. Take away their money printing presses and criminal enterprises, the murderous evil runs out of gas on its own, one would hopium?

I don't know why people even care what the corporate media says. All they do is lie. It's impossible to get accurate, much less, useful information from the legacy media. Imagine believing any of the bullshit they print.

It's all about spending money, not winning conflicts. The only goal in war is to spend money for the United States. US wars have no objectiveness or goals. The US is bombing Syria, Yemen, and Somalia right now - what is the purpose - what is the goal?

It is infuriating to me that people don't even notice. None of you know, and I know this to be true, because I want to know, and I've looked for it, and there is no answer. I've tried to find out, an none of you have the answer, so there's no possibility you can know. You are too timid and arrogant to admit your ignorance. Nobody knows, you're not alone. Arrogance of people is the enemy of us all. It's bred into us, inculcated into us. I'm a victim too, I just recognized it.

The obvious goal is to waste money, to inflate the currency - that's the direct goal. The more indirect goal is to expand the empire at the expense of every American.

You are programmed, propagandized, into supporting this. It's so frustrating that I can see how this is done, and so few people can recognize it.

Slava Ukraini right? It's killing 100's of thousands of people, and they have NO CHANCE of winning. It's horrific. Most people, so few people, can recognize I just see this as a horrible, they think I'm picking a side. It's just death. It's inconceivable to these "people", that I just oppose conflict. I think 90% of people aren't really people. They're meat robots. They have no morality, no souls, no empathy, no thought. They are repeaters of television, and they range from smart to stupid. I live in a cage with a bunch of programmed, dangerous, animals, sub humans. They are frightening.

Maybe I went too far calling them animals, animals if you give them food and comfort and safety, they are great. Most people that exist, are monsters - not even animals.
