It is not the consciousness of men that determines their being, but, on the contrary, their social being that determines their consciousness.
Karl Marx (Marx Selected Works, Vol. I, p. 269.)
Hitler was inspired by the US treatments of aborigenes and later they hired the Nazis in Operation Paperclip. Definitely the US and its lackey Nazisrael are way better candidates.
The idea that Putin looked weak is something only being promulgated on Western media, I have Russian and Belorussian friends and follow Russian Telegram channels and everywhere the idea of Putin, you like it or not, is that it emerged stronger, since pretty much all high ranking officers in the military stood by him and showed unity, and he managed to resolve the situation with as little bloodshed as possible. From the outside, everyone can cry whatever they want about him looking weak, but what matters is that inside of Russia there’s more unity now than before, and that makes them look at themselves as stronger.
Something like 2 US funded coups happened.
If pro-Ukrainian media come up with a decent methodology to independently estimate Russian losses, then I’m sure some discussion can be had around that.
Don’t expect the opposition to do the work for you.
Name a more fascist iconic duo.
Could you please show me which law prohibits from having a different opinion with the one maintained with the government? You can be mad, but the law is the law, otherwise that’s what you people would call authoritarian.
As far as I know in the Global South we have a wave of left wing governments, maybe you forgot white people is not the world.

26 downvotes… the very same people that cry for freedom on one part of the world cheer when this kind of things happen.
The climate crisis is not because of the wheels of civilisation or because that or this, it’s because of capitalism. There are alternatives, but these alternatives hurt shareholders profits, so they are not discussed.
I would like to quote this comment I saw a couple of weeks ago:
To think this is some sort of bad scenario for Russia is to be blind. They are starting to effectively tax the national bourgeoisie, the thing the Usonian “left” prides so much they should do to fix all of their homeland issues regarding quality of life, and here is painted, under the lenses of a right wing news site, as a bad thing. Under any logical circumstance if a country needs money, what makes the most sense if you don’t want to hurt the people, is to tax companies, otherwise you will end up having low wages, or you will cut spending on some other form of social welfare, which in turn then produces inflation and destabilises the country since the spending power of the working class gets diminished.
This is what Seishi Hinada, National Executive Committee member of ZENKO and the International Strategy Center, has to say about plans for the re-militarisation of Japan as a strategic geopolitical landmark in the eyes of the US to control East Asia:
The Japanese government is making the most of the war in Ukraine and the rocket launch by DPRK is getting the general public behind its policy of massive military expansion and acquiring the capabilities to attack foreign bases. Regarding the military buildup by the Japanese government, the general public seems to be in support of those policies, but there are weak points. When it comes to a tax hike for the sake of military expansion, the approval ratings will drop. So Kishida cannot talk out loud about the tax hike, and the only option he has left is to cut the budget in every other field: social welfare, health care, education, and the rest of it. In addition, the Japanese population is shrinking quicker than anticipated. So the government is asked to take drastic measures to deal with this issue too. But again, they cannot finance it because they allocate a large share of the budget to military expenses. By exposing these contradictions, more and more people will realize the necessity to radically shift the policy of military alliance and military buildup toward peaceful dialogue and disarmament. The general public’s consciousness is changing. Kishida’s support base is not so strong.
And he’s not some sort of “tankie” or radical left wing person, he’s someone that for decades has opposed the US occupation of Okinawa with military bases. In any circumstance, even if Russia is economically in not such a great position, this is the correct move to either get a grip, or gain some strength, not the move of a delirious and dying government.
Not related but they aren’t so Western and pro AmeriKKKa and so on, they care about the Global South.
Because the US is an oligarchy controlled by the military industrial complex.
It’s thermic sensation, though, not actual temperature, but it doesn’t make it much better.
Fucking Gringos, they want to kill us all.
The US will probably do it, let’s hope they don’t.
Nevertheless we are better than them.
