Re: Ukraine Russia war NEWS

I stand by my words of earlier. Victory Day commemorates the expansion of Soviet rule over Eastern Europe. Even if it didn't go down the way they had envisioned it, with the Nazis, back in 1939.

Hopefully, this time, we nip it in the bud.

And for the record, I've been to both Russia and Ukraine.

The people deserve far better than what they are getting with Putin and I don't blame Ukrainians for resisting Putin's annexation attempts. If the Russian people are willing to trade their Christo-fascist ideologies, for the looting Putin and his inner circle are getting away with - that's on them.

If they want to believe Bonnie and Clyde were Soviet era war heros... I hope they can fill their boots, with anything that makes them feel warm and comfortable.

As long as they keep it in their borders.

Perhaps all the Putin supporters will just stop supporting him?
Regardless of who "wins" an election, they always are up against a Silent Elite. Do you believe the extreme poor who voted for Trump ever thought their non-profit support would be slashed right out from under them?

Oh, speaking of nazis that are totally not part of Ukranian armed forces. Look what president Zelensky published today along with Ministry of Defense:

Just a Ukranian soldier wearing Nazi insignia. Again. For the millionth times.

Don't feel bad, I understand there's one of you born every minute.

Here's the collection of archived images propagandist Anabel V. put together to create the illusion you're buying into...

Notice how @DefenceU isn't there?

If you're at all interested in learning something today, you could read this article:

Screensampling excerpted sources from web archives allows users like @narvonocutz (EvenSteven) to recontextualize and propagate content from a trusted source (the Wayback Machine), while constructing a new post or thread of recontextualized content made of images that both evade moderation but also obfuscate the archived URL by disabling the hyperlink and shortening the original URL. Abstracted from their original source, these screenshots severe attribution to the original URL and spreading the content in an untraceable manner, and creating “memetic abstraction” (Chaiet, 2019).

And what exactly is the purpose of denying Ukrainian government's Nazi affiliations? They are not too shy about it themselves.

Just not quick enough to delete it like Zelensky :up:
Here, want to know who is credited with taking the photo? It was:

Stas Yurchenko, Petros Giannakouris, Elena Tita, Alfredo Bosco, Herman Krieger, Katya Moskalyuk, Yevhen Zavgorodny, Julia Kochetova, Lynsey Addario, Serhii Nuzhnenko.

And it was taken back in March.

Your Comrade Even said it was posted today by President Zelensky and @DefenceU, but in fact, it appears to have only been posted propagandist Anabel V.

Believe what you want, like you said, I don't know you. So why would I care if you want to believe in Orcs?

Don't worry, there will be more pictures of Nazi insignia sporting Ukraine soldiers for you to strongly deny, happens every day it seems :biggrin: I mean illusions! :up:

I'm sorry which one of those links proves your point?

Never mind. I've tried discussing things with you before and it's really pointless. [icon_lol2.gif]
In the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election the coalition of Svoboda and the other extreme-right political parties in Ukraine ― National Corps, the Governmental Initiative of Yarosh, and the Right Sector ― won only 2.15% of the vote combined and failed to pass the 5% threshold.

Now 83, Olga was only two years old when the soldiers arrived in her village...

"We were taken 5km [three miles] to a field. I was with my mum and my grannie," she tells us. "When we came to the field ditches were already dug. They began to shoot. We were surrounded by the dogs, by policemen, to stop anyone from running away.

"People started to fall into the ditch. Alive, dead, wounded. They started in the morning and it went on until midday. Then they sprinkled a little earth and left.

"Two boys, aged six and seven, survived. They started to look for other survivors. They dug me out with their hands."
But hey, you've found pictures on the internet of 20 something folks with patches and flags.

That's kind of the same in your mind - right?

I guess the crews of submarines are all Nazis as well eh. They flew the skull and crossbones/ jolly roger, after sinking a ship in WW2

last submarine to fly the skull and crossbones, HMS Conqueror after sinking the General Belgrano.

Silly nonsense, wear a skull and cross bones, must be a Nazi... :135:
