Happy birthday!
The first portable cell phone was built by a Soviet radio engineer…
The noise of all those loud balloons is drowning them out!
Importing a trashed tank from a war zone and setting it up in a public place seems like a really organic non-manufactured form of protest. They’re trying so hard to overshadow what’s actually going on:
50,000 people protested against further aid for Ukraine in Berlin alone, with similar protests in other German cities. Some of the sentiments expressed by people there are really good, too:
“We are like the slaves to war and the warmongers,” said Norbert, a former soldier, declining to give his surname, who held a banner reading “The real enemy sits in the City of London and New York,” a reference he said to the financial powers who he claimed were behind the war and had no interest in it ending.
The kid running as a communist “as a joke”:
I like that they have an entry about us but Dengism is a red link leading nowhere lol
Interesting priorities.
I would even argue that them creating the kind of bourgeois propaganda (whether they are aware of what they are doing or not) that reaches mostly young people and comes across as slick and factual is probably exactly why they became a go to beneficiary of all these billionaire foundations in the first place.
Believing the NATO narrative about Ukraine and thinking financial support against the Russian hordes is the single most important thing in the world and yet at the same time thinking it’s cool and good that this support hinges on football man playing with different advertisements and brands on his jersey is playing liberalism on nightmare difficulty.
Can NATO propaganda please finally make up its mind if its adversaries are weak and on the brink of collapse or if the poor little US military industrial complex needs to burn the healthcare of a few more million people just to keep pace with scary Russia and China?
Here’s the best I could still get it to make before my trial ran out haha
I’ve seen an absolutely beautiful lib take about the sabotage of Nordstream:
They admitted that it doesn’t really make any sense for Russia to do this, so Russia totally DID do it to seem more “unpredictable and crazy” and therefore make the threat of an escalation to nuclear warfare seem more credible. Perhaps they can use the heat generated by these kinds of mental gymnastics to keep warm during the winter.
Gotta love Americans calling things like the CIA apolitical. Kind of accidentally gives away that their institutions acting as global terrorist organisations is considered a given that is just the natural state of things and that US “democracy” would never even allow anything that might change that. Like, just straight up admitting that your entire political process is a sham and no one cares.
very free, very liberty, very normal to just accept that
When your answer is so correct that an American company has to delete it so it keeps not being talked about 😎
