Africa having a field day today. This quote is upvoted by the same people that want no queen slander whatsoever.
Europe is becoming completely unhinged in their joined effort to…? To do what exactly? Financially destroy themselves to own the Russians?
If we don’t go all out in a nuclear war for the above mentioned reason then I wonder where the European socdems draw the line.
I don’t think it ever really was about Ukraine. Ukraine just happened to be a Russia bordering nation that isn’t part of NATO. And the US and friends just want to defeat Russian influence over Europe, because then the US can completely dominate the continent. And in Ukraine they succeeded in luring Russia into war.
Yes, it never was, it was always about Russia, which was always seen as outside enemy, even during the Napoleonic Wars and Holy Alliance when it literally saved the asses of western empires. Socialism increased that fear and hate tenfold. It’s completely obvious how even Yeltsin’s Russia, completely humiliated and domesticated, was still not allowed to join the “free world” even as third class citizen like Poland or Romania were.
West, as every fascist organization, needs an enemy to cover the fact that their own ruling class is the greatest enemy of their peoples.
I’m finishing up a book about the CIA (Legacy of Ashes by Tim Weiner - it’s meh tbh, don’t really like the author, planning to read Blum’s Killing Hope next) and the US security state was in shambles after the USSR fell because they thought they had no purpose anymore 😂
Half of these people couldn’t point to Ukraine on a map.
The US has already tried goading Russia into a larger war in Georgia, Belarus, Chechnia, even went so far as to directly attack Russian troops in Syria iirc.
