  1. Thanks a lot for sharing that and for the help for understanding and having a grasp on it better. Appreciate it! I will check it out later during the day when I finish some of my assignments and commitments that I have. ??
  2. Thanks for sharing the link, I will check it out briefly, and explaining it here in detail, it makes sense when having any slight knowledge of basic evolutionary biology and psychological principles, and politics and ideology put in service to cater to that aspect in humans and streamline and direct people along already predetermined group and pre-conceived notions stance lines.
  3. The one thing I learned from this crisis is due to the almost daily contradicting mess coming from some of sources, news sources and censorship coming from others, people are starting to believe what they actually want to believe about this and feels good for them to do so and hold that belief about it at the moment based on what favors their identity survival biases more until the whole situation is still ongoing and unresolved.
  4. You didn't talk to and meet a lot of people from Serbia then unfortunately (a country of almost 7 million) because there are a lot of people here with differing views on this issue and many many other political, social and cultural issues and beliefs about them in fact and differing lifestyles, (hmm almost like an actual pluralistic democracy existing in some parts of the civil society but not in politics and the wider national culture) , not just the loudest and most represented ones in the international media to enforce this bias in a outside viewer that you are speaking off because they happen to be the most vocal and nationalistic, revisionistic ones here on the issue and cause the most outrage from a western viewer in order to generate clicks and views for the outlet that is publishing it - reinforcing biases, targeted online demographic line and bubbles. It's almost the same as that far right click outrage on digital platforms during the Trump presidency in America and Europe, that generated record profits for views and ads for the US digital tech platforms.
  5. There were also pro-Ukranian protests and demonstrations in Belgrade for the sovereignity and the enforcement and remaining of the territorial integrity of Ukraine due to the Kosovo issue, but not as large, as these ones, but sure you won't see that be broadcasted, circulating online or hear about that (since emotional outrage and manipulation of people who do not think or feel like you and seem like extremists generates views and clicks, and not reasonable analysis of the actual origin and questioning of why the phenomenona is there in the first place), since Serbian government refused to condemn either side and has been sitting on the fence regarding this more or less, showing though a slight pro-Russian bias due to economic ties with country and historical, political and cultural reasons, which is a sign to the media outlets that if you are not completely in line with the US, EU or West on this issue than the majority of people must be with Russia's aggression, even though most people here I've heard from are protesting the diplomatic, international isolation, sanctions, embargoes against Russia and Russian people and it's over demonisation, discrimination and satanization representation as country and people as whole in the international media and West more in general. Since weekend has arrived and today is a weekend day here probably I guess from what has been being announced here and shared as news by various outlets most working people and citizens will turn out in the capital tonight in even more larger numbers now to go to the demonstrations against the sanctions and a petition to the government not impose sanctions or join the condemnation, diplomatic and western international isolation of the country.
  6. My intent is not to deliberately sound mean, dismissive or reductive towards all the economic problems that some ordinary people are struggling with that you laid out since I don't live nor experience of hardships of what you described of currently having ideas of how or trying to plan future living and life in Canada (but that's still not an option that is off the table that I am not considering where I am currently at in life and in the possible near future) (but the prices of apartments and especially houses has skyrocketed I've heard from other people who immigrated from here to Canada, even before Covid and has been rising already several years back) and America, but from what you laid out these sound more like personal finance management problem grievances due to being in a temporarily rough, hard period or transition time and phase in life, than what was here to be attempted to be laid out as a call to unity for the whole of America and Americans in the near coming future and a difficult global crisis for them and all it's allies for unifying collective purposes across the globe of starting to innoviate and think outside of box when trying to start in feat of building something new or going/starting again from scratch. Have you considered migrating to somewhere else to another country perhaps where housing and where such necessecities and future life plan goals and it's realization for you are currently more cheaper and more affordable for you when having a regular, no credentials or more high end, professional requirements job, if I am not mistaken, sorry in advance if am wrongly inffering or having mistaken assumptions when assuming regarding this, than where you currently are at?
  7. That there were some embers shining through of FDR's speeches and energy vibes in that one in a critical global moment, feels more authentic, real and truthful, in most of it's aspects, though as an outlier and outsider one can notice trying to look at it objectively some blindspots and self biases here and there, but that's what not the point of the speech in the first, it was it's call to an authentic unifying energy it aimed to bring forth to the Americans, US and it's allies in these times with it, of how one should put it, of it truly being American in that most key sense, in regards to it's core values and principles in that one, in contrast to the constant focus, oveexgaggeration and magnifying of shadow threats and phantom enemies that Trump's speeches were constantly bemoaning and bitching about, that sounded way more ideologically motivated and constantly centered in imagined threats and enemies, for himself and his loyalists mostly, of dreamed up and infatuation with exclusive focus on ideological belief generated phantasms, threats and enemies, than this one could be, if trying to call upon to be American and unified in in this situation can be even called overly ideological, and not just acting in accords to your countries current patriotic needs. This feels instead like a true call to a State of the Union speech and adress, what it was intended to be in it's authenticty, than most other speeches I've heard from time to time there, it almost feels from an outsider's point of view, in a long time, you could actually feel the energy of it's authentic call to unifying intention, energy and feelings present all around it to be felt, and acted by and upon as such, than other speeches through different points of time I've ever heard being adressed from there in a long time, it seems in the long past other critical historical moments, events and periods in recent to not so recent history. It actually feels like an authentic call to Union and unity speech, in it's most authentic value and actual ideal of it oriented sense, than most others pretending to be, working around and gish galloping around that for another aim or purpose entirely only using the speech to solidify the means to achieve that, in these times after a long period. I don't want to make any sure predictions but I feel these and in the near future following speeches from US presidents will soon be in the future looked up on as the last ones in American history of them being truly American and feeling that way in their original founding and countries myths through history and it's purpose in a sense, of rallying up the nation, Americans and their allies in the world, for the purposes of this current moment in history, and afterwards they might become more in a global humanitarian, cosmopolitan and universal oriented in nature, but we shall see if I am wrong if this rallying up is the last time that is needed to be used in the future like it needed to be done in this current moment of history. Giving me all in all in it's perhaps intended energies the nostalgia of these oldie game vibes I used to play as elementary school kid on old computers:
  8. Yeah that makes sense more in contrast to the hyped up, sensationalist, click and view baity more profiting and profitable headlines and reporting of the event, emotionally and safety manipulative content way of reporting on the event for people's sense of safety and security regarding the hyped up fear injecting and magnifying of the possible risks of unintended and unexpected consequences caused by this military operation, grim prospects and intentions they were circulating in the news outlets regarding that everywhere on Russians military intents, aims and part regarding that operation even though it seems that main problem with the aim that they are trying to achieve is that they are doing it too recklessly and that if something unexpected and serious happens it would be the result of their recklessness and collateral damage, focused too much on all ining that military strategy, of possible unpredicted ecological externalities caused, with the military strategic aim that you mentioned above they planned to actually achieve with these attempts of controlling it and having the ability of cutting of the part of country putting up the most and fierce resistance from energy/electricity supplies with their actual attempt of it's strategic capture in order to play their hand with this important crucial strategic resource in their possession and forcefully put forward with it's control the pacification or demoralization of whole scale military or civilian resistance to them and the Russian military in some parts of the country and maybe attempt to force their surrender or outright capitualation in some parts.
  9. It took the Soviet Union six months to retake Ukraine from 1943-44, and with Nazi German whole Army Groups stationed there, and after 1945 - later 5 more years to secure it completely in whole, because they fought a long, dragged out war with Ukranian nationalist insurgency and guerilla in the Carpathian mountains during that whole time period, that weren't just a nuisance but were a non-naive threat for their hold in Ukraine. It also took the almost of the whole of Nazi Germanies military might push westwards, on only one military front 9 days to take and occupy the country the size of Belgium and two or more weeks of not even the whole of Poland during the start of WWII in 1939. Nobody could have reasonably expected for Kyiv or any other major Ukranian city to fall in two-to-three days given the actual population size of those cities and Ukraine as a whole - even with a presupposed Blitzkrieg slightly emulated military strategy way or war doctrine of doing that if that was really what was attempted to be actually achieved with the Ukranian military, armed resistance and government under the guise of "the special operation".
  10. This is all happening but you have to understand and keep in mind that some people became skeptical of the validity of the claims behind some of those videos because it later turned out that something which was shown and then described that it had happened in them later turned out to be untrue (it was actually discovered that a strayed Ukrainian AA missile hit some apartment residential in Kyiv by mistake and not the Russian aircraft in the attempt of establishing an air defense shield over Kiev to repell and when a threat of Russian bombardment of the cities strategic and military targets was high and that some Ukrainian fighter planes were actually taken down by mistake by friendly fire by other Ukranian planes in the scrambling panic during the first days, when the smoldering building was shown on the first day of the invasion of Kiev, also in Donbass at the borders between the republics and Ukranian territory that the kindergarten shelling before the start of the war was actually caused by a strayed shell and misfire of Ukranian tank and not Russian backed separatists mortar shells, since the line of fire in which the shell entered the kindergarten was of a straight line only able to come within Ukranian borders) or downright false and manufactured for the purposes of war propaganda, attempt at rallying and gathering international support and help boosting morale (aka Ghost of Kyiv Ukrainian fighter jet flights and Russian fighter jet takedown images and videos actually coming from a 2020 video game, and the fact that in modern aviation warfare fighter jets actually no longer perform one on one dogfights against each other, that's an outdated military strategy that is no longer applied in any conflict between two opposing aviation forces). To mention of few examples of why people later become skeptical of the few of the videos that were circulating and came out and what they were described to show that later turned out to be untrue or false, same as with some initial reports that came out during the first days of the war coming out.
  11. An Ode to the Tragedies of Hitler, Stalin and Putin and of the world and its shadow left behind them and the futility of the resurrection of the past, living in it and in it's hegemony, the tragedy of the unavoidablity of unfolding of these course of events by following it as if being inescapably bound, enslaved and slave by and because of it and them and it's vicious, seemingly inescapable logical chain of going forward from it - the tragedy of one's self enslavement to it:
  12. The assasination of Franz Ferdinand didn't actually cause WWI, its a very a reductionist, and simplistic to think so this way attempting to nail it down to one thing missing the whole and wider truth behind the cause of that historical event and period in human history, this is a popular misconception and fancy popularly like to be believed simplistic easy to believe and hold a belief about myth regarding cause behind and the actual reasons for start of WWI, sometimes even unfairly pitted on the Serbs as a people as whole and their fostering of some their radical nationalists, it was actually caused by series of secretly formed alliances formed by European imperialist powers over the decades to keep each others growing military and economic power in check and to protect from and encircle some other countries posing a risk to upending or challenging their kept dominance and hegemony in some spheres via secret diplomacy (later abolished as internationally acceptable and internationally legal way of conducting official diplomacy between nations after WWI) that went into effect when Austria-Hungary seized the opportunity of that event to declare war on it's annoying, rebellious and noisy southern independent country neighbour Serbia and try finally to incorporate it into it's dominion and have it yield and not compete with it in it's regional imperialist influence, goals and demands. The Triple Antante and the Central Powers systems of alliances between countries and European imperialist powers who were in seeming similar positions and sharing similarly aligned goals, future plans and visions for their countries own interests were made decade or two before the start of the actual war and when one of those powers found a solid a pretext for starting a war and then went into full unconsciously made over the decades effect with each country aligning with a certain part of the alliance and pursuing it, it was later openly revealed with some like Italy, for their own selfish political and economic reasons.
  13. This is actually a very meritable psychoanalytical approach of what might have happened on part of him and the old guard Russian leadership around him in their minds, they ended up noticing, which they knew from their own personal dealings with them and boiling under the surface the massive corruption and conflicts of interests actually existing in some parts of American and Western political life and history up until this point, but they overprojected this corruption being the most important factor and thing projecting their own massive one in the process which they justified as being forced to in and given no other choice towards in the service to keep Russia still militarily powerful and geopolitically relevant as a superpower in exclusively now military terms because of the horrible botched, not it invested enough it seems facilitated from the outside, fundamental transition, threshold point in the 90's, carrying still to some extent with them it's unhealed deep trauma and unaddressing the need to deeply work on actually healing it and overcoming it, not willing to let it go and release it and holding onto it like an always hungry dog to a bone, projecting it's failure exclusively on the West part with no claiming the responsibility of their own for it's ruggedness the way it was carried and botchedness, deeply unaddressing unsurfacing the unconsciously, very sneakily slowly formed victim mentality because of formed unconscious beliefs and feelings about that period and after that in order to project it too traumatic to accept personally responsible failures and faults requiring improvement, focusing on further maturing and growth and being and open and mature enough and not to prideful, arrogant and self-centered to accept others input and advice and later offered help on that, that you have unaddressed inferiority complexes towards, because of and for that hence complex of inferiority thus hiding itself as complex of superiority forming because of that, shielded themselves from as being justifiable in the service of upending the West's global position, influence and post-90s power worldwide in pursuit of an alternative system whatever the unproductive, destructive and self-destructive means for that to be achieved - to break free from this global corruption and decadence of society stemming from it, by nihilistic means in order to root it out and expose it if even by sacrificial means, which was the fact the only thing they could see from their vantage point because they themselves projected unconsciously their own massive shadow of their own massive corruption shadily, self-servingly acquired, selfishly justified by victim mentality of no other possible avenues during their historic circumstances which they came forth and which they think they are in now existing justifications, ultimately self-serving from a narrowly prism view of the whole order of the new globe and world from only their own personal narrow exclusive positions reasons and conclusions stemming from hence forth from that justified and presenting to themselves as justifiable for a wider historical goal, means to an end, seemingly Machiavellian, also projected onto to the west as exclusively also that which they are or in even more of a measure, and much more than them since they are more influential and powerful than them also operating in this way, magnifying the projection of the West's cynicism by the unconscious deeply unaddressed shadow of their own piling up over the years up until this point, piling up over the decades not bring able to exist in the first place if that wasn't the undeniable case for them in their view so it was the only thing they could see, missing the whole moving diverse forest for what was all seemingly happening and unfolding for their own very personal bias pre-chosen and pre-selected personally very disliked, narrowed and seen hypocritical and inconsistent tree, steemed also from suppressed, deeply unconscious and psychologically painful and unexamined deep rooted and never fully unearthed to face it in the open, unrestricted, transparent all encompassing light feelings of inferiority and of current inadequacy for the current world as it is manifesting it in themselves as feelings of superiority. In others words if you don't actually embody and live something you cannot actually see it objectively and truthfully in whole for what it in the full it really is and actually feels like, you can only have your own personal assumptions and projection of it seeming from your own parts of your unconscious suppressed unaccepted and too traumatic and painful, reality grounding severely destabilising and shaking up parts of your shadow parts of your unearthed, archaeologically unexamined psyche.
  14. I might have to check out consider getting it at some point if I want circle some of these things. It's pretty incredible and surreal experience from me since a large part of my - free and online research time - in this time the previous and year before that 2019, 2020 and 2021. I've spent watching from stuff slightly from RT but mainly Chris Hedges show there about his invited author's guest old and newly published books on various political, economic, social and psychological subjects alike and analysis and tried to learn and incorporate some of those insights and materials from those presented ideas in the author's and their books featured in the shows into the ideas for my now, pretty in the pipes now at this point, academic studies and research in sociology at faculty. I've spent a lot of times digesting ideas, views and insights from his presented books in the last years from his show - in attempt to fuse it with my wishes and dreams about my faculty works and subjects, and ideas for seminars, papers I might write and did actually write a couple of them and submit them as pre-exam obligation for some faculty subjects on my sociology studies at the state faculty here by using the presented books of his and some of his guests and the books on various current social, economic or political they published he invited on his show at RT as an inspiration and initial ideas for what would be theme and my interest of what of the problems interest me in the world for the paper I might write at submit and as the initial starting and launching point of acquired knowledge and interest of an academic disciplind or subject I might explore and specialise myself in faculty and afterwards after I get the degree and finish it, but now the possibility of the prospects of the realization of that dream, motivationally and hopefully wise have left me, since I haven't been giving exams that much and completing my subjects or studying really in the past year and a half or so and more, since my current academic achievement combined up until this point went in the dumpster fire and to the pipes. But now it's all banned since it's a Russian parent company broadcaster and I can't view it from my country without VPN or Tor as you said, and it feels even more weird like a sudden surreal slowly unfolding world wide shift in perception and feelings happening at the backdrop without me really fully having a foresight of it suddenly happening at the seemingly drop of a hat, and the ability of it actually happening the way that it did, presented as and felt like across most parts of the globe and reality revelatory total break from my previous memories and habits and realties that was forced to happen because of the wider worldwide shock unfolding context and a sudden violent break from the conformist previous and taken for granted things that I have gotten used to will always be there that I got used to and have taken for granted previously in my own version of the bubble view of the world.
  15. Thanks for pointing this out, you are actually not being mean but pointing towards legitimate faults in the way I am expressing myself in this situation that I could probably improve upon. Sorry I will try to not go on to run-off sentences but the way thoughts came rushing into me as a result of this subject I couldn't at a moment find a different and better way to express myself so it doesn't seem like I am trailing off and talking to myself, maybe actually got a form of unconscoius PTSD from this whole situation unfolding that I am now unconsciously expressing in posts in order to vent off, when hearing and being faced of the actual magnanimity of this whole situation from other people that I know here and hear from. Anyways thanks for the care and I will try to improve it honestly in the near future next posts so people can actually understand me so it doesn't actually feel like I am talking to myself. Looks like my psyche actually got overwhelmed and caught up in this whirlwind and in high alert that I actually didn't notice it. Refusal and denial to admit of feeling of fear, slight panic and cowardice the way that I see this situation is unfolding worse day by day, some people here actually say and speculate loftly, without much knowledge though given, that Russians might attempt to do to the Ukranian city of Mariupol what the Allies did to the beautiful German city of Dresden in WWII - I am having haunting prospects because of that because I actually visited Dresden once and remember it distinctively, reconstructed though, at an school excursion when I was 18 in highschool - very uncomfortable and haunting prospects of images associated with the comparison to that historic event and feelings being churned out by not yet unverified data, speculations and rumours - that I actually don't take yet for granted. Looks like I need to unplug myself from panic and overthinking mode with some meditation and consciousness work. As for helping the Ukrainians by perhaps joining the International Legions to defend their democratic Republic, like some awarded war veteran ancestors of people here where I live who conscripted and joined as part of the International brigades and communist guerilla volunteer groups once upon a time in the last century to fight in the Spanish Civil War to help the Republicans and save their Republic from the nationalist, Frankists and falangists fascist backed onslaught upon them before WWII and the socialist Yugoslav times, volunteer groups from across the world, though I saw mostly western developed countries, coming to help them and guard and try to save some civilians, I had thoughts regarding that but I personally don't have any arms handling experience or training in my life nobody here that I know or close to me or online that I have met expressed joining such a group or organising people here or recruiting them from online spaces to do such a thing and send some volunteer groups also from here, and people know don't even know if their state or government would allow them to leave their borders on such a basis since they haven't condemned or sanctioned either side in this war.
  16. Nothing wrong with that, it's actually a higher consciousness stance and more selfless and care extension approach and position to take and have in this situation and overall in one's brief life if actually embodied and lived with it to the full, it's values, and with all with which that incorporates and predisposes of including in one's life, than being a Russian bot in this situation. But the only thing I objected towards is that being critical or calling to NATO's culpability or action here or lack of proper action and approach for that matter, imo, when dealing with a country such as Russia ran by people who run it, automatically puts one in the Russian bot camp. This war was illegitimate, unjustified and violation of the post-WWII Nuremberg laws in international law and in the UN charter, which means it's initators and planners can be prosecuted for war crimes, human rights abuses and put on the International Criminal Tribunal after this all hopefully over soon, in the way it was launched and thus conducted, even worse than Iraq, which already weakened in the eyes of some looking for a later opportunity the UN charter and the enforcement of and respect towards law, even though more justifiable for humanitarian concerns than this invasion by a long shot, also Yugoslavia slightly to an extent, or Syria, but NATO couldn't have at least didn't have to give them the pre-text with it's reckless, boisterous and overconfident attempt at extension, without addressing and working around first, the consequences of geopolitical realities of such a thing to the regime to do such an invasion by giving the Ukrainians promises they couldn't keep with them immediately and it seems almost seemingly waiting for this to happen, without being prepared for the consequences such a thing happening if they don't compromise with the Russians with the approach for protecting and securing Ukraine's sovereignity they had in mind in working, that could have also been reasonably suspected, to be interpreted by the Russians, as an infringing and bound to come domino effect for their own regime and the lessening of their influence.
  17. Neither will be the defense industry in America and regular American consumers from these rising backclashes of oil prices and therefore of costs of goods and services from this crisis or therefore of any country on the world relying to much on keeping warm and running from Russian energetics. I see that nobody is going to go unscathed from this completely. They are going to have to accept living less and less in their self-absorbed bubble view of the rest of the world and reality now.
  18. America and it's high-tech products and elsewhere of those in some other European countries are not the world, they actually don't run the only single spanning interconnected planetary global web system, contrary what some people are taught or would like to believe, for various reasons for safety assurances or wanting to have a sense of superiority complex over the rest of the now equally competing and rising to the ocassion parts of the world. Like the American based and produced tech is only thing on the market now availiable, TikTok is Chinese owned tech company as far as I know and the Chinese have their own version of Intranet and payment apps, Russia might as well move in that direction as well at some point, acquire them more from the Chinese and rely more on those already avaliable in their country and if they go ahead and actually cut Russia located IP users from accessing the Internet and US search engines, other countries might see that and start their development of their own homegrown domestic digital networks to break away from the US monopoly ones while still being able to access certain sites. But we will see if they are able to stock up on other digital reserve sovereign currencies as well, that the Chinese are developing as well over time, if they manage to pull this economic transition during this regime as an alternative and offer it to some countries as well suffering as result from sanctions stemming from and steered by US Dollar supremacy hegemony in the world financial sector and from existing the dollar dominated and supremacy parts of the financial sector and ditch the dollars and euros from their central bank reserves. This is the problem I see with too Americo-centric inoculated views is because they don't see theses realities possibly unfolding and happening right underneath their eyes due their too much overreliance in pre-conditioned, preassumed and overreliance of Western superiority beliefs and the natural process of Americanization and Westernization directed from top above, which is being obediently followed and not questioned without actually being properly grasped and understood, while not seeing the need for it's integration and actual embodiment of its values from below, while not seeing these blindspots, apart from their assumed more truthfulness and consciousness of their values, in other areas that run and build up the rest of the world currently.
  19. There was like a 70% support for Putin among the general Russian public if I am not mistaken according to the last poles conducted before this, the people who are mostly opposed to him were the more democratically minded ones in the major wealthy Russian metropolises like Saint Petersburg and Moscow. Further antagonism and Russophobia being spread by Western tech platforms and the rampant disinformation that has been going during the initial stages at the start of this war about the Russian and Ukranian military when they are slowly coming to light with the discovery of dumping of outright fake and older videos and disinformation and posts that we're circulating will just aggreviate them even more that they were painted as whole as a people in the Western media and digital tech platforms as overly demonised, they were going to feel like they themselves and their military has been engaged in a targeted propaganda and disinformation campaign of demonisation and Russophobia being spread on mass on social media and Western digital platforms, for whatever noble war prevention, deescalation purposes that it won't feel like that way to them as it was an attempt to make Russia yield as whole psychologically, economically and militarily, the way the information was being manipulated with, but rather a deliberate attempt against them as a whole as Russians to discriminate against them specifically and to misinform large swathes of population in real time for hyping up war propaganda purposes against the Russian military and Russians in general. When even Zelensky recognizes this and wants the normalisation of relations and peace deal struck, for reaching a type of Finlandization policy compromise deal to stop the onslaught and destruction, and to reduce the warmongers and hawks in Washington's prepped defense stocks from skyrocketing even further with the regular Ukranian civilians as sacrificial pawns and collateral damage to that further escalation of tensions with the Russian military:
  20. Really, what about your own government's ones swept beneath the surface ones from the collective short term outrage memory, your refusal to provide help and aid and be emphatetic and understanding when you got called out by an Iraqi on this forum for it? That's sounds awfully hypocritical to claim the higher concern, care, empathy and moral highground in regards to me when everybody saw here how you acted in regards towards that. NATO's failure and refusal to compromise (like wow, they did so for Finland during the Cold War after they as well, guess what, have been invaded by the Soviets (effectively mostly RFSR then) and managed to repell them, but didn't still insist on admitting them into NATO without compromise, negotiations or agreements at all costs) criticisms = war crimes apologia of the Russian Federation Military Armed Forces and Officials still loyal and under Putin. You are so deep in self-serving superficial shallow dualties that you are not even aware of it brother, perhaps in order out of fear to not be singled out as a black sheep or octrasized by your identity survival nurturing community that you are in right now that shut down their reasoning, critical thinking skills and went in as this homogeneous mass and mob in their opinions and thinking about this the moment, the narrative has started to be massively managed, for people immediately to find one exclusive side they can point their finger to in order to feel good, morally righteous, virtue signal and feel that they are above others actually questioning the cause and now solutions that can lead to the resolution of this total f#up, when this erupted and question the stoking, involvement of their own government's failure in preventing this crisis and it's contribution to the massacres you are so shocked that you are seeing unfold before you, why you pay dutiful taxes to the increases in the military budget for your government in order for it to claim protection rights and obfuscate it's own initial responsibilities in failure to negotiate their NATO stance and policy and possibility of it's future involvement.
  21. To someone who thinks geopolitical considerations is apologia, he is moving from the sphere of practical political science into the spheres of empty dogmatistic religious stances and moral condemnation without bearings and attempts of changing anything in the current reality, which is in fact a show of following a hegemonistic narratives of those who claim to be the current moral centers in the world for the humanity for this issue, the ideocracy and infalliblity of the Vatican in Washington's narrative for this issue - help spread the gospel of NATO to the Ukranians while not bliniking an eye to the indigenous natives currently being bombed in Yemen and starved in Afghanistan by that same doctrine followed to the tee by their allies. NATO is not a neutral.org that's doesn't hold any attachments of anything along with it and force it's visions, requirements and demands upon some, it answers also to an extent to the US defense industry, so did not as well early Christanization to a certain schism of the Church, every country has the right to question it's threat to for it's economic impact towards it and it's sovereignity to act freely and as independent nation in the world, not constrained by it in the world.
  22. Seems like an attempt of the Russian elites to find a single, easy scapegoat for this whole crisis, while some of the rest of them hope to go unscathed from it. Attempt to rally other Russians and Russian billioners to denounce him, but I doubt his utmost inner circle will, they are going all in with this - to get some guarantees and concessions from the Ukrainian leadership and present it as a victory of some sort, faced with a seveere and unprecedented Russian antagonism and Russophobia war propaganda campaign coming from the West, their Ukranian clients and other interest aligned countries - they will at least maybe to try to deface NATO's responsibility in part for this because of their unwavering and uncompromising policies towards the Russian Federation and it's military influence and power in the world and hidden involvement in this, with a demand for a Finlandization policy for Ukraine and then some of them might consider to pay war reparations or even pursue some of allegations of war crime cases on the international criminal courts after there is a political shift in power in Russia, even if they oust Putin, Russia is not going rid itself away of it's military power and presence in the world so easily and just be digested into NATO, while disregarding geopolitical and economic consequences of that for other countries who are not aligned with NATO because of that.
  23. They have been able to construct such a society due to in part because of their special status during the Cold War, and the acceuntation on democratization, welfare, public services, education and linking up with liberal democracies across W. Europe. Ukraine should take note perhaps at a possible future Finlandization policy with Russia as well, might not be bad as well to try to steer the country in that direction more in the future with big help and support from that to actually start coming from the West, instead of this up until now bellicose and antagonistic rhetoric helping the most their defense industry, weapons manufacturers and arms salesman, if they care about it so much towards such a de elopement, that is if Russia agrees to hand them back all the territory back they have taken from them and sign some contract and trade deal not disincentivesing and cooperating with Ukraine for energy supplies to Europe, not being a competitor seeking to kick them out of that energy market for Europe, with that move their energy exports and supplies to Europe and the world from their vast reserves in their territory, and for Ukraine to pledge a special neutral status to Russia with no further development of NATO or CSTO there , maybe just limited peacekeeping troops presence in some areas due to this agressive war, but they pledge to a neutral status and Russia pledges in return, honour all their previous guarantees and new ones being struck as the result of this crisis, not expand westward militarily and invade them, if this deal is violated NATO military presence in Ukraine is in effect asap. This compromise policy between the two major stakeholders in this whole ordeal Washington and Moscow, but it will also show to the world that NATO is not a without blame factor in this and it might start to reform to actually value and honour more its actual keeping countries safe and protected from each other so they can peacefully trade and expand their economies with each other policy without the ability to infringe upon the development of a and sovereignity of a military of another country through it's sometimes reckless over extension and expansion in the guise of only ensuring one countries sovereignity is protected while not taking into account the sovereignity and ability of military reach and development of another.
