    Never trust news from a country about its opposition in a war. That’s why you can’t trust Russians reporting on Ukraine, Ukrainians on Russia, Israelis on Arabs, Arabs on Israel, or America on America.

    Ukraine needs elections. Russia needs to stop bombing civilians like they’re a bunch of shitty Americans…

        Not even the leftest of the left activists in this country bother to try to articulate Russia’s violence. I’d genuinely be interested in hearing your personal take.

      but they seem to be stupid enough to align itself with trump and an empire in decline.

            You forgot the expansionism bit

            You know, US over all its neighbours, Russia over Ukraine, Israel over Palestine/Lebanon/Syria, China over Taiwan…

      If you use out of scientific context psychological terms as a substitute for meaningful political analysis, it’s because you’ve got nothing else. I highly recommend this essay on “psychopolitics”

        Weird how you armchair-psychoanalyze me to prove your point that my armchair-psychoanalysis of Putin being a megalomaniac is incorrect, but okay. Would you take my point if instead of “megalomaniac” I used the term “irredentist fuckwad” or simply just “tosser”?

          “You got nothing else” is just a factual observation. Your new comment is further evidence of this.

            Expanding energy into arguing with idiots is wasted energy. My initial mistake was posting in .ml (didn’t check). I will filter out your community in order to prevent any future mishaps. Apologies.
