While I wouldn’t trust Google on anything, the “journalist” cited in this article worked for Iranian foreign propaganda outlet Press TV. Even though what Google did was wrong, that’s a massive red flag. Working for Press TV is no different than Google working for the American far right oligarch regime.
Tankie / red fash source!
If workers went on strike in China, Russia or Venezuela they would be calling it a CIA op!
Funny, to see a member of the corrupt US oligarchy talk about corruption in other countries.
Don’t promote tankie sources, they don’t really care about the working class. Notice how the article excludes China (or say Cuba or Venezuela).
This is a tankie source.
Ok, I didn’t know that.
Why the hell was Israel allowed to participate? It’s not like there is any sort of ecoconomic loss from kicking Israel out.
A menace to all liberal, democratic societies that value human rights and believe in real market competition that brings down prices and forces companies to focus on the needs of their customers and workforce (so not fake American-style competition rhetoric).
Almost none of them are morons. They are all cunning, sophisticated and they spend all their time on work and their goals.
No need to underestimate them.
If anything their weaknesses lie in arrogance, ignorance (not the same thing as being stupid) and low tolerance of dealing with challenges they haven’t encountered. As things stand today, this weaknesses haven’t really caused them any problems, but that doesn’t this will always be true.
Corrupt GLP-1 addicted motherfuckers!
I used to always defend the US (even before 2014) on pragmatic grounds and due to the history of the 20th century. Americans tend to be slow, but they eventually do the right thing. They’ve done a lot of bad, but unlike russia and China they’ve also had genuine successes in their foreign policy such as promoting long-term democracy and freedom in Germany, Japan, Poland, the Baltic nations.
After they recognize russia’s annextion of Crimea, Lugansk and Donetsk oblasts, they are de facto on par with Nicaragua, Cuba or North Korea as far as I am concerned.
And this is not merely a matter of far right Americans, the American centre-right (both party elites and the vast majority of their supporters, albeit not all) is very much responsible too. Vast majority of centre-right Americans (I’ve lived there for several, and I have close centre-right friends) are too well off to support true anti-corruption measures, the type that would take down many of the oligarchs that are the nexus of chauvinistic propaganda and corruption that enabled Trump. One example from my time in the US was Obama deciding to completely avoid any anti-crime measures in the financial industry in 2008 (a unique, historical opportunity).
Thank you!
Respect to Kasparov. There is a reason russians (including the allegedly “liberal” russian “opposition”) hate him!
This is unfortunately to be expected.
I will add that Trump is a mere symptom, the cause is US society (ignoring this benefits no one, even the Americans).
No is calling for attacking hospitals or civilians! I was taking about military and industrial targets.
I will respectful disagree, I am sure our leadership would also not reject the ability to launch ~100 tomahawks per week on an indefinite basis.
I hope you’re right, but I don’t believe in anything other than using force against the russians.
That would mean going beyond our current attacks with drones and locally produces missiles and doing at least 50-100 ballistic missile strikes against the russians per week. This is just one example; a similar comprehensive approach would need to be applied in multiple areas.
Beyond that, we would need to arm freedom fighters in occupied nations to allow both utilization of senior collaborators, but also anti-air system to bring down russian planes and a bombing program to disrupt russian logistics.
Took nearly 4 years of full scale invasion even though sabotage by russians in EU was conducted before Feb 22.
And they are still allowing entry by random russians.
And that’s why they are sending thousands of their citizens to help the russia’s genocidal invasion of Ukraine.
A true vanguard against imperialism!
Kurashov himself never testified. According to court reporters, his lawyer Anna Karpenko said her client “sincerely repented” and that he believed he had simply been following orders from above not to take any prisoners.
What a russian thing to say.
I agree on all counts.
I am just pointing out that working for Press TV is just as bad what Google does.
