Another failed coup\fraud attempts not having enough momentum. Mild persecutions for his chuds after a long time. Him dying from something preventable, probably respiratory or blood-related, while his trial is still going on. Republicans coming slightly back to the center because they can’t find another idol and want to appeal to a wider voting base, that’s until they find a younger Shapiro or Tate-type. Harris and Walz’re gonna do some better policies on equality and ecology no one would remember in four years. Ukraine has a bit more funding, Israel a bit less. Democrats won’t try to find another candidate because Kamala just worked right, that’d come unfortunate because she and her running mate are elderly know and lost a lot of their appeal.

Same with russian ‘grandma phones’ with big buttons. Some researches found thst although they don’t provide any functionality besides basic phone\sms stuff, they do try to call their motherbase, sending all credentials and geoloc. IIRC there was no argument about them sending the content of smses and voicecalls, but it’s troubling as it is.

+ Russian as in sold there, they are chinese, sometimes with a local branding.

Somewhen in the 00s I had a probably friendship-breaking argument with a pal of mine about the whole ‘patriotism’ thing. Indeed, we lost any connection in the following years, and I suppose that was one of the reasons. Back then, we couldn’t formulate what patriotism is, and he stood on the ground of defending this ephemeral construct while I was all for ditching it.

In the coming years I repeatedly reevaluated what it is for me, and for others, and for the state. While the state’s position is obvious - patriotism is like an oath you take when you enter military service to unconditipnally follow what the state wants. For others it’s a mixed bag, greatly defined not only by the great achievements of the past, but by insecurity that they’d lose even more if their tsar lose support, and the state how it is, even openly criticized, guarantees our material conditions would decline slowly and for a right reason, while the other choice is a chaos that would turn everything upside down like it was in the 90s.

For me, personally, the patriotism started to be a thing after I had a conversation with a lot of people from different regions and backgrounds. We, after all, a family that lives in a large house. Some of the rentees are deeply consumed by the war and the state propaganda, some aren’t, but in the end we all share the same living space and would continue to do so whatever happens. What we all share though, and what led to such a degradation, is a decline in material and social conditions orchestrated by the kremlyads. And if there’s a patriotism in loving your country and your own contrymen, it goes against the current admin, them stealing everything and sending our men into a meatgrinder, them bankrupting our culture, them exchanging our future to get loans from the likes of Iran and China, them giving handshakes or handjobs to Talibs and Kim.

A russian patriot, if there’s one, gonna hate these phoney moves by the state instead of education, hate how it strips russian people bare and send them to die because it felt like it, hate how in a course of an endless VVP admin we turned from a promising country with a hope of establishing a democracy with living wages we turned into pariahs that can’t even leave that bestest vision of the Motherland if we aren’t rich like top propagandists do owning multiple properties in Europe. What I see the best for my country is not aligned with what ‘The collective West’ (as dumbfucks call it) wants us to do, it is to our own egoistic interest to return to the path of development and reinclusion into the world of less shitty states, because it would lead to us not having a second thought about buying okayish meat and bread instead of priced down garbage when we do groceries, and would make us raise kids without a fear that they’d be put down for some greater good.

If it’s set in stone now, does it mean they are on the course to further investigate russian and other foreign ties in american media and politics? I’ musking for a friend.

I see screencaps from that show but can’t figure out what it is. May anyone guide me?

Libraries and education are an investment even for a capitalist. The only beneficiaries of lacking both are religious slave states.

Most of murders aren’t calculated acts with an escape plan, a lot of them done in a heat of a situation or under some influence.

This guy probably didn’t thought he’d do that and then panicked, couldn’t manage to find any other way to get rid of the body but using a blender he usually used to smash vegs and stuff.

Other ways of life could’ve probably lead him to another tool or method he is comfortable with in his day-to-day life, but his first thought was a blender.

Taliban squats on suffering of afghani people and slices it’s workforce in half just because. They know the donations would come. They don’t need to do anything for the west to feel pity of this country for the years of occupation - and while Talibs don’t have anything to do with it afghani nation would be carefully supported whatever bullshit they do.

Talibs took over Afghanistan in mere days because the existing government (whatever platform they even had) was too codependent on american presence. Corrupt and weak, without any political or military might, it predictably flopped. That’s what 20 years of this ‘buildimg’ effort went up to become. There were no plan to leave, especially that fast, and as long as it existed the way it did, no one bothered to nurture afghani own political ground. And when they left, it crumbled.

The way the US moved to leave was a disaster, now punished with these bloodsuckers demanding help for problems they themselves create.

Would it be a despise or a praise at home if someone like him succedes? He’s probably mentally ill and purposedly radicalized by someone. Yet, I can see people cheering his failed deeds and him becoming this week’s martyr for the religious right majority in the East.

Uvalde cops be like:

He also violated the dress code, so we waited to let him get it right. Shooters have this one obligation goddamit.

It also means that China can take advantage of Russia to get much more than it could usually get for their gear. China is not helping Russia out of the goodness of it’s heart or some ideological reason. They’re taking advantage.

Yep, China, and Iran and India and whoever else. Current admin sets the conditions of trade that would scar the economy long after all these senile gambling gramps die. Reparations don’t sound that awful when you consider how much shit they probably promised to or leased from these ‘brotherly’ countries. Even if I happened to be a Z-patriot, I can’t see myself swallowing that.

Not all rockets are made equally.

You are right. And the fact that they scratch the bottom of the barrel like asking NK means they are desperate. Still, not enough supplies to Ukraine to counter that and I want them to have these, as a russian citizen.

What can hurt it in your opinion?

Military stuff is out of the picture since they established their trade with CCP and NK for rockets and found their ways to get European chips. They are investigated, but slowly.

My guess is that a lot of ingredients used in their production lines of food are imported, like specific kinds of yeast to make bread and beer or something like that. I wonder if sanctions targeting non-consumer products critical to producing them can lead to long pauses I’d read about in military once some key suppliers got cut off.

Incrimental economical hardships get obfuscated by the state so no one draws a line between that and the war, or if they do, they have 1000+1 reasons why it went this way thanks to propaganda. Until it is a direct shock treatment at some industries, it would be toned down by the effort of local economical institutions. I’m the outlier in buying things in non-chinese services and following western media it seems, and slowing down the YouTube was the first event when I noticed many previously apolitical person to find their ways to circumvent the ban.

The most energized groups are those of recent soldiers and their families, and their protests get shut down fast. It’s genuinely afraid of them. And it feels like the way it would happen.

I throw up some confusing explanation with gestures before my barber does the same haircut they did to me for 5+ something years. Idk what would I do if they retire.

Is Hamas even that disciplined to act as a unified front? Management or soldiers on the site could’ve decided themselves to take a revenge on hostages. Especially if they knew they are cornered and there were no use of keeping them alive if they are deadmen too.

Dream-like and energetic? Try Boris - Melody and their whole Noise album.

This place didn’t deserve him.

If you don’t mind, I have a potato PC to test it and make a write up on how it works on outdated setups. Write me and I’d PM my steam.
