Its not "my opinion" that the US removed the ban on funding nazi organisations to be able to fund forces in Ukraine, that for instance the Azov Battalion expressed these ideas while receiving training and money from the US, or that US and Ukraine were the only ones to vote against the UN...

No puff at all, yet more puff than anyone has information or arguments countering these facts. :shrug:

Meh. Its all fairly neutral, we'll adapt nicely into the brave new world eventually. But as with any major change, it will be a bit of struggle along the way.

Well, yes. It is the way they've most commonly done it. Chile is a good example, where they strangled the economy once a socialist was elected, then funding the far right to put a military dictatorship in place. Quite similar to the situation in Ukraine where the US has been pumping in...

Of course, was always the case. The US is winning this war.

https://www.northstandchat.com/threads/finland-in-nato.394598/ Lets talk the nature of NATO over there and keep Ukraine & Russia here, eh?

The post you quoted is like a year old or something. NATO is not a defensive organisation, it is imperialistic and invasive, but I think mods etc. prefer to keep this thread about the current war if I understand it right, which is sensible. Would happily discuss the subject elsewhere however.

yes

Dito. Interesting discussions on this thread. No need to lower the level through labelling entire populations as scum or calling people stupid because they don't speak English.

You're not poorly educated just because you're not bilingual and calling the entire Russian population scum is simply racist.

And I get that you are a unpaid unaware Western empire loudspeaker, to large extent projecting your own mindset on to me. There's at least two sides of every story. Blindly swallowing one while ignoring the other is the foolish behaviour that throughout modern history has made us accept our...

I hope and think he will settle for Ukraine and not go beyond that. Eg the Baltic states are economically and geopolitcally of limited importance compared to Ukraine. And it is Ukraine he has been pissed off about the entire time. This is his view of what went down in Ukraine a couple of years...

As for "Ukraine being a vassal of Moscow", yes he believes this (or similarly at least) and has always been open about it. This is what he said when asked if he thought Russia and Ukraine was "one country": Of course. Look, when these lands that are now the core of Ukraine, joined Russia, there...

Agree, dont see it going down to nukes... serves little purpose. Some batshit or allegedly batshit crazy leaders have had access to nukes over the years yet no-one (except for our cross-atlantic peace-loving overlords) ever used it... because there is very little to gain from it whatever your...

"Everyone" is not the case, no. But media has a very big impact in general and on a lot of people. And yeah I know you dont like the phrase "in general" as "generalisations are odious", as you put it. But to me generalisation is a practical tool. It means I can shake someones hand knowing that...

edit: nvm, cba

I read this as "I'm out of arguments so I'll have to resort to the very creative, witty and not all tired pizza box/weed stuff as it in my head, where no orginal thought has ever seen the light, it is an extremely clever way to insinuate some kind of intellectual superiority."

"Nonetheless, over the last few years the country has witnessed a quick shift toward increased surveillance and police measures in both online and physical space. Combating terrorism and preventing child abuse have been widely used by state agencies and private commercial actors (e.g., Internet...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_and_surveillance_by_country#Reporters_Without_Borders I will go to bed eventually.

Nope nothing like that. United Kingdom, Russia and Belarus are the only countries (according to Reporters without borders) in Europe to censor news and information and I think we're very unlikely to join in on that. RT is interesting. I pretty much ignore anything they say about Russia but they...
