Current Affairs Ukraine

[Death]

I am going to go out on a limb and argue we can all be happy that those on the side of owning human beings and murdering Jews on an industrial level lost.

Both sides have. No one came in and intervened in America. America was founed on slavery and genocide. The likes of which Hitler could only dream of. They ended up sorting out thierr own affairs. Moved forward enslaved the working class. And are on a world domination mission.

How brave are those people.

In basic training, troops were told to focus on the back of chassis (behind the turret on a tank) where the radiator grills for air intake are located.

A petrol bomb on that can starve the engine of oxygen and cut it out. It's also the weakest armour. Easier said than done though!

Incredibly

Btw I just woke up and read the latest msg from my friend based in Kyiv (last Q was will you stay where you are or you will move some other city safer)

I do not really have a plan to head anywhere yet, I am basically packing just in case. The small bag is packed in case I need to run to a bomb shelter or something of that sort, the bigger one - in case there is evacuation, and frankly it's more of a way to get busy with something that isn't just endlessly listening to the terrifying news and panicking. It's weekend, but I'm going to work today to cover for all the people that are travelling or simply too busy taking care of their own safety to work, staying home for now. And I will also try to get some sleep - I've been too terrified to sleep for the past couple of nights and there's a realistic possibility that I will end up in a situation where a nap is not an option, so I think I need a little bit of rest while I have a chance.
Thank you for talking to me. It helps and you're very nice.

Kyiv people are just heroic aren't they

You can’t underestimate the sheer passion, grit and determination Ukrainians have for their country. Second to none - as was evident during the Maidan revolution.

The BBC are not a state run mouthpiece for the government. The current government have been heavily attacking the BBC over the last few years for this very reason.

Even the private owned are big conglomerates that have a capital stake in the status qou. You are never in a million years going to hear an anchor sympathise with putin on BBC news. You can see it in the language they use its all painting a narrative. A narrative being repeated on here. Its propaganda. If you are already predispositiond to the narrative you won't see how blatant it is.

Its as laughable as when you stick on RT news and see how they talk. How they use gymnastics. Its the very same with BBC and the like. Sprinkling in selective facts to make it look legitimate.

Next level. Everybody not fully agreeing with Phil is a communist. Strange because Putin is a kleptocratic kapitalist.

Always looking for WWIII
Always spoiling for a fight.
Getting a hard one in their pantaloons when a shot gets fired.

Kopites are gobs****s ?

totally - you might as well use this, as a news source, if you are using the BBC - its about as objective.

Are people actually getting news from state run BBC? Starting to see why no one has a problem with Britain and USA. Actually shocked some people are to bring it up.

Wasn't it President Lincoln who refused to acknowledge the confederacy as a country? He declared war on them and said he will do everything in his power to not let them become thier own country..

I Already hear 'but..but they are the baddies' they are the hitlers like putin. Didnt you see the Hitler putin pictures all these pro america media companies made?

What part of that video is factually incorrect mate?

Rubbish mate. Been plenty of discussion on five live portraying both sides as best as they can but it’s a thin edge trying to put across Russia’s point of view in any way.

If you think ANY media source is entirely objective you are crazy. They're all prisms through which truth and reality are refracted through human interpretation and intervention. And humans are inherently subjective creatures.

So anyway, the BBC and Putin are both evil. IDST.
