exactly same here. I'm seeing us being lied to again by the usual crew that lies all the time. something doesn't add up, as usual. it is very odd that our government and media went on such a pivot. CNN/FOX lied for years, suddenly they tell truth?... yeah right come on guys!!! you know they are full of shit, and if they are telling you something it's because they want something out of you. there are no news anymore, all we get is some sort of marketing. they are manufacturing some sort of consent as usual.
I do wish more people thought with their heads instead of just mindlessly pick sides in some third world conflict that shouldn't matter to us.
socal2 saysI just don't get all of the over the top hate on Zelensky and Ukraine by some folks.
I don't hate Zelensky, or Ukraine, or Putin, or Russia.
I am quite disappointed in the sudden lack of critical thinking by people who figured out the vaxx scam at least.

Mindlessly picking sides?
Just because the Democrats and our Garbage Media went bonkers with the Russian collusion thing and COVID trying to take down Trump, doesn't mean I am going to automatically ignore and deny over half a century of USSR/Russian crimes and actions.
Even if everything claimed about Zelensky and Ukraine is true, it is not even remotely reasonable to justify the tens of thousands of people Russia is getting killed over the last month.
My whole life - Leftists and our Garbage Media has been trying to whitewash the manifest crimes of the Communists. It wasn't but a few years ago Obama was mocking Romney for pointing out the obvious threats from Putin and Russia. Hillary was busy doing photo-ops with Lavrov with the famous reset button and basically handing over Georgia and Crimea to Russia without a peep.
Just because Leftists and our Media are total hypocrites, doesn't mean those of us on the Right have to lose all sense of reality.
If the Media and Corporate America start getting critical on China and Iran, will you automatically pick the opposite side?

Friend, nothing on television is reality. There is little bit of truth to everything sure, that makes it more believable, but what they show us isn't reality, it's manufactured reality. It's been that way for years, and you know that. We've been lied into many wars and scams. All I'm saying is take things with grain of salt. Because it is suspicious what they are saying, and suddenly grew concerns the way they did, it is suspicious how they pivot and instantly we all are told by entire media complex to get behind whatever bullshit thing they want us to. And it's never for our benefit, we already had 2 years of lockdowns "for our own good", we should have learned by now.
I don't give a shit about Russia or Ukraine, but seeing how our government is all out in propaganda mode similar to Iraq WMD days, I call it for what it is. Media is business of consent manufacturing, you and I are living through it now. "We were always at war with FillInTheBlank".

Where do you get the 10's of thousands? Just who is providing that number?
What I have to laugh about is that suddenly, people have found their humanity suddenly. They didn't care when the US bombed Iraq over a non existent weapons of mass destruction program, or when they returned Libya to civil war and left it with slavery markets, nor when they bombed Syria back to the stone age for Genie Energy. They don't care when Israel spends 70 years bombing the native inhabitants or just outright murders them to expand settlements, the war in Yemen doesn't matter no matter how many people are killed, it doesn't even matter when they were dropping bombs on Afghanistan when there's no mission objective at all for that war.
But when RUSSIA goes to a war, oh my - the HUMANITY!
People are unprincipled easily led sheep. They only care about something when they are TOLD to care about something - they don't actually care, they just go through the motions of it. They ape it having principles and morals. They mimic it, and it's the MSM and government pulling their strings.
The United States has aligned itself with al-Qaeda, with ISIS, with "moderate rebels", with Nazis, with communists - these are our Kurdish "allies" the PKK. They rename groups constantly, the Taliban (evil) magically aren't the Mujahideen (good!) anymore. It happens over night, and all the time. These are the same people that call arsonists and looters "mostly peaceful protesters", and peaceful protesters "insurrectionists" and people just believe it, and SINCERELY believe it.
If our masters are telling the truth this time about Ukraine, it's a first in a LONG long time.
These are the same people that protected Epstein and then tried and convicted (presumably) Ghislaine Maxwell, but we have no idea who her clients were, and they aren't going to be prosecuted. Our masters have zero ethics and they are the ones directing everybody's very superficial and changeable on a whim "ethics". Ed Buck had to murder two people before he was arrested, Harvey Weinstein had to rape over 2 dozen women. Hunter Biden is a drug addict and frequents prostitutes, has child porn on his computer - what happens? The guy that reported it is out of a job and has been doxxed. Julian Assange is going to die in prison because he exposed SOME criminality of our government.
It is a lot like 1984. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia, when the day before, it was at war with Eurasia. It changes practically overnight, and the population is induced to entirely forget just a few weeks ago, Al-Qaeda did 9/11, now they are our partners in Syria. I don't know how a typical person can live with the average level of cognitive dissonance they would have to have, unless they simply have abandoned their cognition.

Correct. It was not that long ago when one user known by handle "richwicks" was going on two-page rants about how wrong and criminal Iraq war was in every fuckin thread no matter the subject. Now he's all: "meh, so Russia kills Ukrainians on some bullshit pretext, big fucking deal, nothing to see there". A truly unpricipled easily led sheep, that one.

Eric Holder says
That's right. You know what my problem with that war was? We don't know why it was fought and since then, it is now completely permissible for the United States to start a war, without even having a mission objective. It's been that way ever since.
Eric Holder says
Do you understand the difference between the United States, the country I live in, going to war versus Russia, a country I DON'T live in going to war?
War damages the nation. The US has been in 7 wars since 2000. In what way have any of these wars helped this nation? Name any way it has helped this nation. You can't even name the countries the US has been at war with, and you don't give a shit. None of you care about the people killed in war, even when you're paying for it, to your detriment and my detriment and the entire nation's detriment. You're paying for this and so am I.
I don't care if Russia damages itself. The only thing I care about, is that the United States not get involved any more than they ALREADY have in Ukraine. Now if Russians are against the war, I sympathize with them, I sympathize with the Ukrainians being against the war as well. This war was totally unnecessary, all Russia (said they) wanted was for Ukraine to remain neutral and abide by the Minsk Accords, but the Minsky Accords - that's to pacify the Russian population - it's a fake humanitarian reason.
You understand the difference don't you? You understand that it's entirely reasonable to have different rules or MY nation than another nation, don't you?
Eric Holder says
I don't think so. You root for whatever your government tells you to root for, even if it harms the nation. The US has predators in power. You know this. Let me demonstrate this:
Name everything that our government has done or changed since George H Bush, William Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, or Joe Biden has done that YOU believe was beneficial for this nation? I can list pages of negative things that have been done under those administrations.
I don't think you know what a principle is. You just support what you're programmed to support. Demonstrate I'm wrong, and show me you are capable of thinking and you have principles. List all the great and good things that our Federal government has done in the last 35 years. I bet you can't list 5 of them, and if you're able to struggle enough to do that, I'll demonstrate how you misunderstand what was done and you're just promoting them because you're repeating the propaganda narrative.

In a later announcement, the U.S. State Department issued an official message of concern over Friday’s verdict. Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said that “The United States is concerned about both the verdict and the disproportionate sentences handed down by a Moscow court in the case against the members of the band Pussy Riot and the negative impact on freedom of expression in Russia. We urge Russian authorities to review this case and ensure that the right to freedom of expression is upheld.”

I've just come to accept morality has nothing to do with it, because it doesn't. In evolutionary psychology, morality is derived from long term survival, or that's the hypothesis. Since people won't deal with the morality abstraction, I concentrate on long term self interest, but people just entrust their long term survival to people like Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Mitt Romney, Barack Obama, George W. Bush and other obvious garbage. They stubbornly think these people are acting (somehow, they can't define it) in their interests, when they obviously aren't. It's frustrating.

The United States is in violation of 1) when they conspired to overthrow Yanukovych in 2014 in a coup under the guise of a revolution

If Conservatives are smart and don't go bat-shit crazy gobbling down Putin's propaganda calling Zelensky and Ukrainian homo Nazis and denying all of the evidence we see of a stalled Russian military campaign with burning Russian naval ships and tanks, we'd be able to use Ukraine to hammer Leftists on:
- Energy independence
- Biden/Clinton corruption in Ukraine
- Biden and Harris' total weakness in world affairs
- Importance of election security
- Secure borders
All the while watching Putin embarrass himself around the world for having a 3rd rate army.
Biden is getting no credit or bounce on Ukraine. But some on the Right are giving the Democrats and our garbage media a life-line with over the top rhetoric which they will use to hammer us in the midterms.

This is not war for freedom or against natzis. Its war between clans on who controls country. There was not much difference between Zelensky and Poroshenko clans. They all corrupt as hell.
Putin is idiot for starting invasion. Zelensky is idiot for provoking and not calming down situation. None of this would happen if they both really cared about ppl.

According to my colleagues in Ukraine this is the type of people they call "wata" ("cotton"?) there. =)) Nobody said these types don't exist - they do, but it was great miscalculation by Putin to assume they are in the majority. Apparently they are not.
It's OK, we had fucking loyalists during American Revolutionary War too.
PS. And how's that "prosperity and peace" going on for the Putin's subjects?
Im from Ukraine and have relatives and friends in there. I can tell you that most people dont give a shit who rules them. All they want is prosperity and peace.

There are wars worth fighting for and then there are wars for power. If you cant tell difference between those then you either young or full of shit. This war sold to young generation as for freedom. If you talk to real ppl there majority dont care.
As for peace and prosperity im talking about ppl in Ukraine. Russia will suffer greatly too as i have friends there.
Growup. There is no black and white in life

There are collaborators, and there's wata, but by large Russians are now HATED WITH PASSION everywhere in Ukraine except the Donetsk/Lugansk areas. That's a big problem for Putin: even if he wins, which is now very doubtful, his puppet government won't survive more than a week. And when I say "survive" I mean it in the most basic, physical sense.
If you talk to real ppl there majority dont care.If you said that most people didn't care until Feb. 23, I'd confirm. But that's not what you are doing, you are saying that nobody cares today. That is a lie.

On fighting i dont know anyone of my contacts there who wants to fight. Name me one good reason why you would risk your life there. And dont use general words like freedom or my country. They been abused by governments. All i know that things didnt change much between last 4 governments from regular Joe point of view. Its stil corrupt and people are poor as fuck.

Because, see, it's clear that there's no shortage of fighters there. It's also clear that your contacts are not them. This is just to profile them more accurately.

You are asking a wrong person because I'm not there. You should ask those on the front line. Or those getting ready to greet the "liberators" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlWKrxLBsss&source=patrick.net Or those who lost their loved ones. Or even women who are safe in Poland but lost their homes. Although in either case I suggest that you do it remotely, to avoid bodily harm.
On fighting i dont know anyone of my contacts there who wants to fight.In what sense? "I've been drafted but I don't want to fight" or "I'm on sidelines and don't want to get involved" ? Just so I understand the profile of the people to which you refer.

Isn't it a basic human emotion to want to defend your family and country when an aggressor nation invades and kills a bunch of people?
The US was constantly told that killing Jihadis in Afghanistan and Iraq would radicalize moderate Muslims to hate America if they accidentally killed a family member or damaged property.
Wars have way of uniting and defining a nation. Ukraine's story and history is being written now.

I'm not. Why don't you just donate to Ukraine's GoFundMe instead of volunteering everyone's money.
How about we spend some money to investigate the corruption that led to the POTUSes son getting paid to work on Ukrainian energy board and why we have bio labs in foreign countries?

Not really. Whatever our government is promoting is the wrong thing to support. That's pretty much been the rule for 20 years.
Were they right about any of the wars?
Were they right about bailing out the criminals on wall street in 2007 and 2008 instead of prosecuting them?
Were they right about passing the ACA that only made it illegal not to carry health insurance, and imposed a $2,000 fine on those that couldn't afford it?
Were they right about LGBTQ+ advocacy?
Were they right to overthrow Ukraine?
Were they right about abortion - up to the day of birth?
Were they right about sars-cov2-19 being a pandemic?
Were they right about the vaccines?
Were they right about Russian Collusion?
Oh, but they're right Ukraine..
Nah, doubt it.
They have a 100% track record of failure.

Americans were also told by the Media and the Government that Jihad was only an internal mental struggle (tell this to the Vandals, Byzantines, Sicilians, Hindus...) and that it was absolutely unacceptable to have any anti-Muslim prejudice whatsoever.
Weeks ago, Facebook lifted their ban on Azov Battalion and allowed generic "Kill Russians" to be posted.

There's something very special about this one. TV channel of the Russian Ministry of Defense "Zvezda" ("The Star") has announced that the ship entered the port of Berdyansk. The greeting from Ukrainians followed shortly after. "Zvezda" was highly commended by the Ukrainian military. Good job, "Zvezda"!

Also, just a pre-warning about any Phosphorous BS. White Phosphorous is legal and was used by the US in Vietnam, Iraq, etc. for decades.
Mosul 2017 and Falluja, 2004:
https://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/06/13/532809626/u-s-led-coalition-has-used-white-phosphorous-in-fight-for-mosul-general-says?source=patrick.net
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/nov/16/iraq.usa
Some smoke and illumination munitions have a Phosphorous ignition system, or contain some Phosphorous, which is also not a chemical weapon. It looks like a little cloud with "fingers" extending down from it.

US forces yesterday made their clearest admission yet that white phosphorus was used as a weapon against insurgents in Iraq. A Pentagon spokesman told the BBC last night that it had been used as "an incendiary weapon" during the assault last year on Falluja in 2004.
Lieutenant Colonel Barry Venable said the substance, which can be used to lay smokescreens but burns down to the bone in contact with skin, was not covered by international conventions on chemical weapons.

You mean some non-English Youtube Channel most people never heard of has a video on it.
"Ukraine reported" is a huge red flag. We'll see. They could have left explosives there or a thousand other things. Don't know where the missile big enough (an ATGM wouldn't do that) would have come from since the place is occupied for many miles around, but who knows. We'll see.
One thing I've learned is to let days go between easily disprovable claims, and a few months to a year go by for the biggies. Like Mask Efficacy, Vaccine Dangers, Hotel Bed Pee-Pee Allegations, Laptops full of Crack and LLC Money transfers from China are Russian Disinfo, etc.
