Bullshit. You didn’t get attacked for talking about female soldiers. Stop being dramatic. I said something completely innocuous and you decided to interject your agenda of constantly needing to call out men for not using gender neutral terms. I didn’t make some long post about the bravery of the men fighting in Ukraine. I said get ‘em boys. You felt the need to call me out for not using a gender neutral term, which is completely inappropriate timing while people are fighting and dying. If you had made a separate post like ABM and mentioned the awesome women fighting for Ukraine, nobody would have said a negative word, but you decided to take a shot at me. Get off your high horse.
Not sure if that is 100% true; Ukrainian press release says "possible" second round. Large explosion in Kyiv minutes ago so I guess Russkies are not yet tired of getting killed. At least Ukraine bought some time to bring in more javelins, stingers, NLAW's and Mig fighter jets. Yes, eastern european countries are offering them old mig jets that they already know how to fly!
Here is some sports news! @ALanoszka ·Wow. Russia will be suspended indefinitely from international football. It won't be playing under ANY name.
Good. Fuck them until they get rid of that asshole and the rest of the oligarchs. *Edit* I'm sorry to be that way, but it's time we stop encouraging these kinds of regimes by engaging in commerce with them.
It was hard to wrap our heads around "patriots" attacking the capitol. Let's face it, traitor gonna trait.
I don't agree with it, but I can at least understand why those morons did it. They have been brainwashed. It only takes a few minutes of watching Fox news to understand what's going on. They genuinely believed that the election was being stolen. They thought they were doing the right thing. Honestly, I see misled liberals as well who lash out first and ask questions later. Nothing as crazy as trying to take over the capital though. That's insane levels of brainwashing.
Oh, I agree, the blame does not end with the "truth seekers" that choose to believe the professional propaganda artists - as the propaganda artists are a big part of the problem - but at the end of the day we all have to make up our mind what we believe in and who we take at their word. Understanding why they were lead astray is absolutely fine - but once you choose to take action based on this misinformation - there are consequences. The same apply to people that support Putin now.
Phone from a dead Russian soldier. It says: Translation: Mother - Ljosha how are you, why didn’t you write for so long? Are you really at a practice? Loshja - Mama I am not at practice anymore I am not in Crimea Mother - Where are you??! Papa asks if he can send you a package. Loshja - What package Mama? I just wanna hang myself.* (corrected) Mother - What are you talking about? What happened? Loshja - Mama I am in Ukraine. Here is a real war happening. I am afraid, we fuck up everything here. Even the peaceful (people)*. We were told they would greet us with open arms but they are not welcoming us they are throwing themselves under our tanks, not letting us pass, calling us fascists. Mama is is really tough.
If you want to understand how crazy Ukrainians are, here are two videos, one a compilation of drone strikes set to music and the other a driveby attack with molotov cocktails:
Pretty damn sad, many famous bloggers in Russia with millions of followers are talking against the war; hope there will be some tangible results soon. There is still a huge convoy of Russian military just north of Kyiv, waiting for something. Possibly they just don't want to get within Ukrainian artillery range.
