Germany elected Nazis all because the center liberal parties pinned their policies to an unpopular war and sanctions that destroyed their economy.

The only people who have benefited since the 2014 coup have been American corporations and American billionaires.

Piracy is all they have now.

I have a recent newborn and I keep thinking that when he's like 15 or so and starting to learn about world politics he's not going to believe me that the United States was want to major world player. He is going to think I am lying to him. It would be like your parents trying to tell you that Africa was once a United country and had the largest military on the planet. Looking at it now it wouldn't be believable.

America is the only thing keeping Ukraine's junta afloat. 🙄

Do you mean for the US to invade Ukraine?

I immediately went to check that “SaltyAmerican” guy that often gets in my “All” feed and latest post was week ago. 🗿

Nothing gives away a Russian troll posing as an American person like trying really hard to emphasize their “Americanness” - with those “as an American”/“we Americans”.

They've taken over the Late Stage Capitalism community and have started banning comments that say voting against the GOP is a good thing.

like persimmons or bad bo?

can you give an example?

My truck is to just never read replies ever.

Then I can never argue with a bot!

If I don't naturally come across the post again then I just forget it ever happened. Like old forums!

The real way to end wealth inequality: send cheques to everyone who thinks america deserves the slightest criticism.

i'm still getting them, putin even licks the stamps on the envelopes himself 💅

I'm glad the instance I chose based on URL ended up being pretty good because sh.itjust.works.

Right thanks for the reminder

It has THE because it's a geographic area of historic Russia, translating to "THE borderland".

I'm older than "Ukraine".

Policing other people's language is very on point for Ukrainian nationalists. Banderites.

I ain't ever had no Chicken Kyiv, but I bet it tastes like shit.

Sounds like something the Russia might say... 🧐

Same actually

I initially thought .ml was literally the TLD for the nation of Mali - so was super confused.

I thought ML is just two letters from Lemmy and it sounds nice

When I first joined Lemmy 3.5 years ago I almost joined .ml because it was the dev's instance. I'm glad I chose .ee instead.

Thanks… unfortunately I’m well aware that’s a low bar lmao

Oh...they know exactly what .ml is

Jesus do you have a goldfish brain? We interact all the time lol.

I got locked out of my OG account.

i live in the us, cant wait for the midterms to be over so you guys go back into hibernation

Yes. I take pictures of despair to show fellow Americans when they tell me this is the greatest country in the world. Liberals gasp that I would take pictures like this! Well newsflash, the USA is filled with misery, you just want to be shown the beautiful Hollywood propaganda. Fuck that. Take pictures of what hell this place is, what it does to people, how it treats it's vulnerable.

I can also post the picture of an elderly woman killed by a speeding driver. I like to pull that out when people tell me we can't make our streets safer.

Do you live in a neighborhood with a chronic homeless population? Do you experience the pain and suffering if individuals who are unable to find shelter on a daily basis? Do you know what rotting flesh smells like from an untreated wound because the person is chronically high and passed out under a bridge?

Don't fucking judge my photography, judge your government and society for allowing this shit to exist. I see the pain everyday, and having people like you brush it aside and virtue signal that this isn't a problem is pure evil imo

Lmfao what country do you want me to go to so that I experience the shithole life? Btw let's compare Apples to apples, I want the other SHITHOLE country to have similar GDP per capita as USA. Where is this SHITHOLE???

Yeah they 100% are. The China Show (ADV) on YouTube covers Chinese news every week, 99% of it never reaches Western news. Anyways they have footage of the CCP forcing prisoners on computers being forced to troll an shill CCP propaganda like 18 hours every day off the week.

It's utterly crazy the money their propaganda machine pays to make people think it isn't an absolute shit hole.

You type "i dont think its ok to torture people" as a response to a news article about people being tortured, and somebody pops up with a history lesson about what your country did before you were born so maybe you should firebomb your own capital city instead of saying that other countries shouldn't commit attrocities etc etc etc its 99% of the time somebody from .ml

Hexbear tho

"why are [OPs] gods so cute" i think is the question.

are they kittens? that might explain it.

zelensky, please strike again. this one's still around

Interestingly defensive, glad you got internet back up <3

"our brave heroes" and a "shield of Europe" am I right

👍 Too early for sarcasm. 😭

I don't need a data center to see capitalist greed and Weatern imperialism.

The RAND Corporation wrote a whitepaper that basically translates to "how to destroy Russia and take all their shit".

The unfortunate Arctic thaw is opening up vast troves of natural resources and corporations and billionaires want them. This is why Trump has such a hardon for Canada and Greenland.

Do you ever wonder why all pipelines lead to Europe?

Why would Russia do that? /S

Negative.

Russia is neither.

Qui Bono?
