Then again, he is a role-model for a successful second-generation immigration family I guess. Can someone from the UK tell me how Brexit-Voters reacted to chanting racist slogans against immigration and then their voted party gave them a second-generation immigrant as a PM? Did their head explode or do they not have the capacity to see it as a bit ironic?
We can not put an end to scorching the earth, because a Sheik wants to build a 170-kilometre-long and 200 meter wide city in the desert.
Why didn’t he straight put the flames out with gas to make clear what kind of mind he has? He could have broken off the gold-ornaments before too to show his true colors.
I hope the attacks by Ukrainians behind enemy lines intensify before the Russian presidential election. The Russians hate them anyway. They could again drop some presents on Moscow without losing any more sympathy that they did not got from russians in the first place. Might as well show some muscles - the only language authoritarian regimes understand. 18 Drones in Kiev? 18 Drones on Moscow. But instead of civilian infrastructure, let it rain down on political targets. No need to get as low as russians.
If he is in 2023 still arguing it, then he is type of guy that It will take only two days of snow until he calls you to ask where „your global warming is now“.
Maduro is a lying, murderous, corrupt piece of shit. Always has been. Always will be. And when people go on the street to protest, they get shot at by maduros henchman or put in prison and tortured. I do not get how the other countries in south america stay idle while he is moving borders. I hope this guys can be put in front of an international court one day for the atrocities he did during his regime. And this episode with Guyana is just the latest of his crimes. Since his best friend Putin is not sending him oil-tankers anymore, he get quite brave. I hope someone or something will get in his way soon… He is such a piece of shit.
The babushka and woman voice in russia is mostly supressed, but if there is protests, it is mostly the mothers and babushka that voice their protest more fearless. It was again visible during the demonstrations against the war in the first weeks. While some man do protest too, the mothers and elder woman feel more “invincible” while the male russian is mostly complicit of the state narrative because of the violence they can receive. Many russian protest in the past were started or hold up by russian (mostly older) woman. I think the reason is mostly that they do not fit into a righteous narrative of the state. Russian State TV is mostly right wing Police/Justice content showing bad people getting locked up. The famous cells inside the courtroom are to some degree a invention of the russian TV propaganda. Putting people behind iron bars does always look guilty on TV. Nobody feels sympathy for someone talking through iron bars. But it does not work for Babushkas. State TV could never show a old russian woman (or multiple thereof) like that and have the majority on their side. It would always look deeply inhumane to (even) russians from every generation, seeing their elders portrait like that. People would be outraged. Therefore older russian woman are more fearless in groups to state their protest, because they know the state can not (in general) beat them up like they do with male protesters. During the protest they had to carry them away one by one without first beating them down like they normally do. And I am sure the (young) male were more tortured by OMON Troops than the older russian woman - if at all. So paying the woman is a solution that works for russia and china and some other asian countries, where there is a deep rooted respect for elders and mothers that are able to state protests, that can only hardly be controlled by strong force when erupting. Better pay up before than risking the images.
I think I played that mission in Commandos: Behind enemy Lines
This post has so many controversial aspects:
He is 71 right now. He would be pushing 90 in '42. If he internalizes his inner Kissinger to live to 100, he can replay the “Great Patriotic War” of '45.
Sadly, SA has fuck-you-money to blow for this and it will most possibly work shaping their image on the international stage. It worked when they had the Football Worldcup with only minimal consequences in echo. It worked when they went on a shopping spree around the world (mostly the US) to buy up sport events too. I guess the backlash for the World Fair will not be too big. What it needs are activist unrolling banner at the fair (and then getting imprisoned or executed), people protesting and condemnation by leaders of other countries for the act of SA on the human right level. We seen none of that regarding the other events in the past and there is no organized front against the whitewashing of the SA image in the general discourse. So I think they will not burn the billion, but found a good investment by that, to fool the people into thinking SA is a beacon of modernity, while it is in reality a beacon of patriarchy, dictatorship, human-rights-violation, and dismembering a journalist with a bone-saw after trapping him in the embassy in a foreign country.
Russia wants to have regions that are developed and have a friendly open society, so they can apply their russian system there, grind it down with their corruption and make it look like Norilsk, where pollution is killing their citizens. They can not create. Only destroy. They have no working system for society or regulations. It is orc behavior.
I met russians in germany, italy and thailand. 80% were pro Putin. And there was no camera running or a hot microphone. They are that dense. The have no epathy for the victims the kill in ukraine. These people never learned to admit guilt and wall deny every accusation by reflex and will apply to the image of putin, as a strong, hard, never-budging man. They can not show softness, empathy or sympathy as that would be a weak woman/gay feeling. Russians always want to look tough, hard and like warriors. They are that insecure.
Yo, Britonians: Shits on fire. Do something.
This can not be real. People told me for years that solar does not work at night and wind is not always blowing, so renewables can not work and I am a “librul fag”. How can a country work in 5 days of renewables then? Maybe then it is also not true, that wind turbines give people cancer? Preposterous! Maybe these people lied. Or are just dumb. Or both.
I am sure Putin himself will drive with his orange truck (again) down the Kerch Bridge to bring food and supplies to his people. Like he does all the other times when there are people in need in russia.
JK, he does not give a fuck about his own people. He murdered hundred of thousands in a useless war only for his ego. He is a bastard and war criminal.
Granted I did not read the title right, but I think it is a good idea to have human right expert express in every country. Just open package, add water, enjoy human rights. Send thousands to Iran, Saudi Arabia and China for delicious human rights ready in just a few minutes.
He looks like the lovechild of Willy Wonka and Boris Johnson. Who looks at this guy and says “Yes, this is the guy I want to lead my country”?
For me it is also not over until putins useless corpse is getting dragged behind a car across moscow. Some reports state that Putin was very intimidated by the images of Gaddafi getting jumped by people in public. Its the authocrates bigges fear that one day the people organize and drag him out of his palace. I will never forgive Putin what he has done and I will only forgive the complicit population if they drag his lifeless body over the red square. He killed hundred thousands of people. He deserves the Gaddafi-Treatment.
