Propaganda is really the thing stopping leftism in the west, and it's terrifyingly effective. At it's best it makes people think the complete opposite of what the reality is.

If socialists ever decide to fight a western government they should seize the media as a priority.

At some point all i could here is Hugh Crane is winning, like spectator commentary for a local Pie throwing contest.

I had to stop listening to mainstream media because, at some point my brain started to invert everything they said in to the opposite, like subconsciously. They went so hard with the reality distortion that it triggered a bio-heuristic cognitive adaptation. Like when you wear those gimmick-glasses that make you see everything upside down, if you wear those glasses for long enough your brain compensates and you see everything normal again.

The European Union and NATO are the geopolitical arm of America's unconstitutional fourth branch of government.

American liberals are always looking to 'civilized Europe' for hope and guidance for a reason.

The hypocrisy of 'civilized Europe' is now being exposed to the world.

It is entirely dependent upon American military aggression and the colonial exploitation of Africa.

It's 'civilized Europe' which appears to be attempting to sabatoge peace negotiations in Ukraine and which, in the loudest and strongest terms, condemns proposals for the withdrawal of US troops from the continent.

It is also the reason Trump will fail utterly in confronting the fourth branch.

'Civilized Europe' will not allow America to cast off the parasitical fetters to world peace it calls 'human rights.'

And when the constitutional crisis inevitably leads to full-blown civil war in America - a war that has already begun at the highest levels of government,

'Civilized Europe' will be the main intervening power, to ensure the preservation of the occupation regime maintaining the global system for which global financial capitalist parasites are the main beneficiaries.

The only question is: Does America still have some barbaric pride left in it to resist this?

Neither are accelerationist imho. President Blinken was just a wrecker, Trump pulling out was rational (you know, lost war, lost cause), but we also don't really know what Trump's motivations are.

I guess it's also correct that nuclear war risk has decreased since diplomatic relations between the US and Russia have resumed.

Just a simple Google search on this dictator thing is hilarious. From CNN to WashPo to Axios, they all are running damage control for the Z man. Most of these rags don't even have the basic journalistic integrity to directly link their source on Truth Social.

I didn't realize the context of Trump's outburst until now, but it seems this was in response to Zelensky and his Ukrainian/CIA propaganda apparatus trying to frame Trump as having said that "Ukraine was to blame for the war". Trump actually didn't say this, but Zelensky then had a scolding press conference where he acted like a Western "fact checker" in response to this media straw man and said that Trump was in a "disinformation bubble" and was being misled by Russia. Trump of course was the victim of a four year long propaganda campaign claiming he was an agent of Putin. Zelensky also talked about how totally popular he was in Ukraine but still can't have elections again.

The man of Z fucked up big this time and this is quite probably a career ender for him.

They're idiots for Russia-gating Trump again, he gained political energy from that the first time around and strawmaning people is stupid too.

The "disinformation bubble" rhetoric is nothing more than a thought termination mechanism. Maybe we should co-opt the word and use it for something else, like diss-information, as in information useful for dissing somebody in combative poetry. That way it would have an actual meaning. Although it is tempting to call legacy media as the "war-monger information bubble".

The Russians have most of those uncooked minerals, Volo thought he could use the minerals as a Mc-guffin to get the US to fight the Russians. And Trump just said
<your minerals ?
<those are my minerals

The debate about US forces being deployed in Ukraine to "secure the minerals" was immediately derailed by bickering about who has legitimate claim on those minerals.

I have to say that's a strange feeling, usually people attack me as a "rushenbot" for not saying the Russians lost 500 quadrillion people every femto second.

I want to be realistic, the Russians held off the Nato ukro-proxy onslaught, and they did it with relatively low losses, credit to their effective military apparatus. But the goal is to have nobody die in wars.

Winning the war is the silver medal, frustrating the instigation of wars and having peace is the gold medal. If you catch my drift.

Really ?
The Ukrainians lost 1.1 millions that's a 11:1 advantage for the Russians. Considering that the advancing army usually gets a 1:3 penalty, it seems very low.

There's polling company that's called mediazona or something similar, and that's the estimate they got from counting stuff like funerals. Considering that war-rags are saying the Russians lost a million or more, this seemed like a reasonable estimate. You know since war-propaganda usually exaggerates by a factor of 10.

This is where the Russia invasion narrative breaks down. The eastern provinces were already waging a civil war for independence since 2014. In 2022 Russia basically got that territory for free and for the most part the Ukrainians have been the "advancing army".

Ukrainian drones attacked Moscow last night

Ukraine strikes Moscow in biggest drone attack on Russia's capital

Ukraine on Tuesday launched its biggest ever drone attack on Moscow, killing three people, injuring 18 others and causing a short shutdown at the Russian capital's four airports, Russian officials said.

The dawn attack unfurled as U.S. officials were to meet a Ukrainian delegation in Saudi Arabia to seek an end of the three-year war and as Russian forces try to encircle thousands of Ukrainian soldiers in the western Russian region of Kursk.

Kyiv has suffered repeated mass strikes from Russia throughout the war and said it was targeted by a ballistic missile and 126 drones on Tuesday. It has tried to hit back against its vastly bigger neighbour with repeated drone raids on oil refineries, airfields and even early-warning radar stations.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said Tuesday's was the biggest Ukrainian drone attack on the city, which including the surrounding region has a population of at least 21 million and is one of the biggest metropolitan areas in Europe.

A senior Russian lawmaker suggested Russia should retaliate for Tuesday's raid by striking Ukraine with the Oreshnik hypersonic missile, which Moscow fired on Ukraine last November after the U.S. and U.K. allowed Kyiv to strike deeper into Russia with Western missiles.

Col.-Gen. Andrei Kartapolov, head of parliament's defence committee and a former deputy defence minister, said such a decision was up to President Vladimir Putin. "But I think it would be useful — and not just one," he said.

Miratorg, one of Russia's biggest meat producers, said two employees were killed by falling debris just south of Moscow. A third fatality was later reported in the same area by Evgeniya Khrustaleva, head of the town of Domodedovo.

Another 18 people were injured, including three children, as residences were also struck, Russian officials said.

Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobyov posted a picture of a wrecked apartment with windows blown out. But there was no sign of panic: commuters went to work as normal.

Russia's aviation watchdog said flights were suspended at all four of Moscow's airports after the attacks, though they were later reopened. Flights were diverted to other cities.

Though U.S. President Donald Trump says he wants to deliver peace in Ukraine, the war is heating up on the battlefield with a major Russian spring offensive in Kursk and a series of Ukrainian drone attacks deep into Russia.

Russia has developed myriad electronic "umbrellas" over Moscow and key installations, with additional advanced internal layers over strategic buildings, and a complex web of air defences to shoot down drones before they reach the Kremlin in the heart of the capital.

The war, the biggest in Europe since the Second World War, has combined grinding trench and artillery warfare with the major innovation of drones.

Moscow and Kyiv have both sought to buy and develop new drones, deploy them in innovative ways, and seek new ways to destroy them - from farmers' shotguns to electronic jamming.

Both sides have turned cheap commercial drones into deadly weapons while ramping up their own production.

Soldiers have reported a visceral fear of drones and both sides have used macabre footage of fatal strikes in their propaganda, with soldiers shown being blown apart in toilets or running from burning vehicles.

Putin, who has sought to insulate Moscow from the war, has called Ukrainian attacks on civilian infrastructure such as nuclear power plants "terrorism" and has vowed a response.

Moscow, by far Russia's richest city, has boomed during the war, buoyed by the biggest defence spending splurge since the Cold War.

Americans have had extensive involvement in targeting, military tactics, etc. Every time Ukraine did a missile strike on Crimea or further inside Russian territory, the US did all the work targeting those missiles. That attack in civilians on the beach in Sevastopol? American targeting. The Ukrainian offense in Kherson? American planning. Basically this confirms what Russia has been saying this whole time: that the Biden administration was directly engaging in war against Russia and playing with world war 3. The New York Times actually brags about this bullshit, a wonderful partnership built between the US and Ukraine. There's no suggestion from the Times at all that this may have been an extremely dangerous mistake. In fact one might wonder if an article like this was published to further reinforce to the Russians that they cannot ever trust the Americans again, to poison any attempt at normalizing relations.

So apparently the article is trying to pawn off all the blame to Ukrainians. So there will be no learning from mistakes.

They end on a dark note, namely that the ruling class in the US and EU likely think that the Russians are somehow inferior and that translates to them trying this all over again some time in the future.

North Korea confirms sending troops to Russia
Moscow has praised Pyongyang for helping liberate Kursk Region from the Ukrainian incursion

North Korea has confirmed it sent troops to Russia in support of an operation to repel a Ukrainian incursion. The statement was released days after Moscow acknowledged the role of North Korean troops in the liberation of Kursk Region.

In a report to Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov praised the contribution made by North Korean servicemen in helping to liberate the Kursk Region from Ukrainian forces.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un personally ordered his country’s military to fight alongside Russian forces “to annihilate Ukrainian neo-Nazi occupiers and liberate the Kursk region,” the country's state media reported on Monday.

“The operations for liberating the Kursk area to repel the adventurous invasion of the Russian Federation by the Ukrainian authorities were victoriously concluded,” Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported, citing an official statement by the country’s Central Military Commission.

North Korean troops were deployed on Russian soil under the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement between Moscow and Pyongyang, which came into force last December. The treaty provides for mutual military assistance in the event of an attack, pledging immediate support “by all means available” under Article 51 of the UN Charter.

Ukraine launched its incursion into Kursk Region last August, deploying some of its best units, equipped with Western-supplied weapons, and initially gaining some ground and capturing numerous settlements before their advance was stopped by Russian forces.

The Central Military Commission said that the evolving military situation had triggered Article 4 of the treaty with Moscow. Based on this analysis, Kim Jong-un personally decided to deploy North Korean troops to Russia and notified the Kremlin.

Pyongyang emphasized that its military activities in Russia were fully consistent with the UN Charter and international law, portraying the deployment as a model of faithful implementation of the mutual defense treaty with Moscow.

Kiev and its Western backers had long alleged that North Korean troops were involved in the conflict. Prior to Saturday, Pyongyang and Moscow neither confirmed nor denied the rumors, while the Russian president had previously said it was up to the two nations to determine how they fulfill their obligations under the partnership pact.

The mainstream media said North Korean Soldiers were fighting in Ukraine, Kursk however is in Russia. They showed dead bodies without faces and proclaimed it to be fallen Korean soldiers in Ukraine. They proclaimed that the Russians had to do this because they were running out of soldiers. So no, what they claimed, still didn't happen.

>What the hell am I supposed to believe anymore..

The Russians said the North Korean soldiers were participating in training exercises within Russia.
That's closer to the truth, at least their narrative placed the North Korean soldiers within the correct country.

Ritter isn't wrong in principle. The Russians might have done this for non-tactical reasons. This is a, admittedly very hardcore, method to make 2 armies figure out how to cooperate.
