And they have the gall of bringing up Berlin Wall each time.
#YouDon’tUnderstandIt’sDifferent
“Civilized”. They love throwing that word around.
One of the oldest racist dogwhistles.
so uncivilized.
Openly racist at this point, at least they tried to act like it was political and not blatant anti-russian racism at first.
I’d prefer if they just admitted their racism. Makes things more simple. And easier to line them against the wall.
truth
Baltics
Civilized
Lolyeah
My thoughts exactly when I saw Spain
We are civilized compared to those north europeans.
I find it so funny how Poland became one of the “good guys” so fast

Pretty sure same people were also cheering for Poland for the same reasons in 2015
You know what? I endorse this. Wtf is a wall gonna do anyway? Let them waste the money they stole xD
How quickly they abandoned Hungary
What’s that money going to buy when you have to pay far more for less energy? (Also, why tf did they use ducks for the wall?)
Ducks can graze and can be annoying af. This makes them a cost effective barrier. If your neighbor replaced their door with a wall of ducks, would you breach it?
Goose stepping. Probably an attempt at fash signaling
So they can make a floating wall on the black sea.
I honestly think that the whole “civilised” thing started back in Ancient Rome when they called all the other non-Romans “Barbarians” to dehumanise them, which didn’t change at all, also how tf do you want to build a wall ON the Black Sea??
It’s actually a Greek word to refer to non-Greeks

Kinda, greeks used it for anyone not speaking greek. Just good ol racism: Persians, Romans, Phoenicians, Scythians, and Egyptians - Barbarians.
Romans took it to mean those out of greco-roman influence, hence the talk of barbarians.
Greeks also specifically named modern day Red Sea African countries (Sudan-Eritrea-Somalia) as Barbaria, their people as Barbars/Berbers.
From here it entered semitic languages like Arabic to mean people whose language is not understandable, and when Arabic expanded to north africa due to muslim conquests, they started naming Amazigh peoples of the saharan desert as berbers, since their language was different.
And berbers started receiving that name in Europe, settling their name forever after, because of feared berber piracy on the mediterranean.
So it’s indeed based on the greek word (most likely), but every group through time and geographic places has used to mean different peoples: non-greeks, non-grecoromans, non-semitics (for arameic languages and arabic speakers the people of Somalia spoke weird language compared to arameic languages in eritrea-ethiopia-sudan at the time), etc.

They (grecoromans) did travel the Red Sea, because Egypt traded through there with Asia, so they were interested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periplus_of_the_Erythraean_Sea
They called it Barbaria because they didnt understand, might have thought the language to be too unique for the region, it happened too long ago to be sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbaria_(region)
In general, a lot of people dont understand that even Chinese Han Empire and Roman Empire actually had contacts, they just never explored them any further “because my culture is clearly superior anyways”. They were aware the world was bigger than they controlled, but Persia was always inbetween
also how tf do you want to build a wall ON the Black Sea
Hey didn’t the Nazis want to do something like that? Drain the Mediterranean and build a wall there?
This? https://yewtu.be/watch?v=TEdsQmjLMKs
Not technically a Nazi proper because that term hadn’t been coined yet, but wouldn’t be surprised if he held similar beliefs.
This idea was later used by the author of the novel Man in the High Castle, who describes Nazis doing it. That’s probably where people got the Nazis misconception from.
That’s the one. Thanks!
This wall can be used to [REDACTED] them
Just feed them to the giant geese.
Whom?
Libs that propose that
Better idea: build a wall to keep the “civilized” parts of Europe contained like a landfill.
Poor Ireland. Geography truly screwed them. I also love how if you continued the line, Turkey would be split in half…accurate. Flip floppers, Turkey only truly supports Turkey, so they conform to the broken clock concept.
They managed to freeze 20 billion in assets.
Thats a roughly 2009km border for hungary minus 175km border with serbia, and 2114km of border for serbia, minus 175km border with hungary. Total = 3773km
Kaliningrad is 232+275km = 507km. Russia-Finland = 1340km, Russia -estonia = 294km, Russia-Latvia = 214km, Belarus-Latvia = 173km, Belarus-Lithuania = 679km, Belarus-Poland = 418km, Belarus-Ukraine = 1084km, Russia-Ukraine = 2295km
TOTAL = 10777 km
Money/KM = 20000 million / 10777 km = 1.856 million per km = 1856 euro/meter
I am feeling some corruption.
+they didn’t finish Russian border with Ukraine properly, they forgot to border 5 Oblasts: Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson.
