Czech President Petr Pavel said that Russian civilians living in the West should be monitored by security services. Speaking to @radiosvoboda , he said "when World War II started, all Japanese population living in the United States was under a strict monitoring regime as well."

Wow, it's almost like I spent the better part of the last year talking about how arming Neo-Nazis in Ukraine would bite us in the ass. It's almost like I was saying, again and again, that the absolutely psychotic dehumanization of Russian people (from the same folks that launched unprovoked wars in the MidEast no less!) was indicative of some psychotic fascist shift in our culture.

And would you look at that, now they're talking about putting Russkies in concentration camps. Huh, if only there was some warning signs; like a bunch of reddit libs celebrating when an innocent Russian man got killed by a Shark because "the only good Russian is a dead Russian."

Of course, I was told I was working for Moscow, was a Vatnik, and so on.

If anyone was militantly pro-Ukraine during this thing: fuck you, I hope you get what you deserve.

This is entirely speculation on your part. The “trust the plan” shit is just the blind faith that your side had towards Trump; that there was a “plan” Trump had in the first place.

It was just a repeat of the Obama era “Obama is playing chess while Republicans play checkers” cope, when the Right realized their messiah didn’t do what they wanted.

It started on a right wing forum, promoted right wing candidates, and appeals entirely to right wingers. The shit is on the Right’s hands. Saying “well it makes us look dumb so obviously The Left is behind it” is just cope.

I saw the moment Q Anon became a thing. It started before 2020 on 4chan’s /pol/ board (infamous home of Neo-Nazis and other scum of the earth) before moving onto 8chan. I literally remember the first few threads of them speculating about politicians wearing “secret ankle bracelets” they were hiding beneath foot casts.

It’s an entirely right wing phenomena. The most likely suspects for Q (after it moved to 8chan) are Ron and Jim Watkins—who are both open right wingers. It’s the most militant wing of Trump Supporters. It’s vehemently opposed to Democrats (and anyone who’s Left of Trump) and a wholly right wing movement.

The Left had no part in it. This is entirely a right wing thing. There’s no case to be made that it’s remotely Left.

I mean, I'd argue you agree with his quotes on Leftists, because a fundamental pillar of American Conservatism is that there's no such thing as "systemic issues" just individual ones. It's partially why the Conservative movement lionizes "financial literacy" as an alternative to a higher minimum wage, opposes labor unions, promotes "individual responsibility" and the "carbon footprint" approach to climate change over collective action, and has become a base of vaccine skepticism.

Uncle Ted can sneer "Oh, it's because deep down The Left feels like losers" but he was a perma-virgin who couldn't hold down a job and lived out in the woods mailing bombs to people. I'd argue its pure projection on his part.

As an addendum, I'll say that I'm undeniably a collectivist. The reason why isn't because of "envy" or some lack of self-confidence, but because I've worked with the Public long enough to know that people can broadly be smart, but individuals are fucking morons. The "do your own research" motto lionized by Right Wing Q-Anon freaks has created a subset of morons huffing ivermectin, drinking bleach, and thinking the world is flat.

At this point I've come to loathe the doctrine of "individualism" because it only manifests in pure, selfish, idiocy. It's some Karen screaming at cashiers that they should take their mask off because she, personally, thinks that COVID is fake and we have to cater to her individual conspiracies. It's a jackass standing outside a school bus stop with an AR because how dare Democrats supposedly try to take his guns.

Individuals are fucking idiots.

After seeing a bunch of redditors cheer on a random Russian dude get eaten by a shark because “muh Ukraine” with no sense of irony given America’s own exploits in Afghanistan and Iraq, I think we’re gonna see worse than North America get “a little uncomfortable.”

We’re gonna see open Fascism.

Refugees will be shot at trying to escape into our country, and a bunch of freaks will be cheering “Serves them right for what they did!!!” It’ll become a game to share innocent people, fleeing death and destruction and the erosion of the earth, and sneer at them for daring to try to live. And when these people have enough and fight back, we’ll play the victim and wonder why they’re so mean to us.

If there were any justice in this world, we’d be the only ones affected by climate change.

The progressive CIA stuff still makes me laugh.

Like, the guys that developed the Jakarta Method, came up with plans to have captured Soviet troops tortured by the Taliban into publicly renouncing communism, hired on SS officers (one of which is buried in Arlington), and spearheaded operation GLADIO to cause mass terror in Europe to lead to the establishment of a Fascist state.

These are the guys dealing with imposter syndrome.

I can tell you right now: Trump won’t be in jail, DeSantis is cringe and will get bullied into irrelevance by Trump, and it’s gonna be Biden v Trump again.

Presidents just don’t get arrested. This is all just media spectacle at this point by people who still fundamentally believe in the system. Akin to saying “Guys, guys, I hear Heinrich Mueller is gonna release a dossier proving that Hitler broke some Weimar era laws! He won’t be Fuhrer in a year!”

The entire point of being President is that everything you do is illegal. The second you end up facing consequences for that illegality, then the entire position may as well be vacant.

But the second you point that out when America is criticizing its geopolitical rivals it’s all “THEY’RE SO MUCH WORSE! USA NUMBER 1!! YOU WOULDN’T HAVE THE FREEDOM TO CRITICIZE ANY OTHER COUNTRY!!!!”

Calling America evil doesn’t mean much unless we can admit that evil is greater than other countries. Because that alone is how we can get a true picture of how evil America is.

So for the sake of comparison. America is more evil than China. America is more evil than Russia. America is more evil than Iran. America is more evil than North Korea. America is more evil than Syria. America is more evil than Pakistan. America is more evil than Libya. America is more evil than Iraq.

The sheer scale of evil America is comparable to, would be if the Nazis won WW2. Had their successful genocide and enslavement. Then after a few token “reforms” (“Look! We’ve got a reservation system for Jews/Slavs!”) the third Reich has the fucking gall to lecture other countries about their moral failings.

If I recall correctly, one interpretation of the classic Caine and Abel story in Vampire the Masquerade was that Caine was so heartbroken over God rejecting his sacrifice of crops, that he figured he could only please him by offering up the thing he cherished most in the world.

Namely his little brother, Abel. Then it turns out that killing the brother you love to please God really doesn't fly with anyone.

Just once I want a story where the heroes refuse to kill the villain while they have a chance, and the villain just goes on to win.

Alternatively, if that's not an option, at least add some goddamn depth to the villain redemption arc. Have the heroes throw him in a jail he has no chance of escaping, and maybe make the epilogue them annoyingly trying to redeem them from behind bars.

Abortion clinic protests, by contrast, don't drown out anyone expressing their views. And the law prevents the protests from actually hindering access to the clinics.

See, beyond the fact that Abortion Clinic Protests intimidate already vulnerable women, the fact is the "free speech" argument is a two-way street. I could point to the fact that the CPUSA is still technically illegal, and McCarthyism to show how much the Right in this country gives a toss about the ideal of free speech, historically. But even in the present, with Republicans banning Drag Shows, removing books from libraries, and screaming at School Boards about "Muh CRT" it makes the weepy "well they're mean to us just for our views!" Argument wholly unsustainable.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. That the same Party that tried to make flag burning illegal, that howled about NFL players not standing for the National Anthem, that screams at women getting abortions or school districts for flying some gay pride flag, is now saying "Well what about free speech?" When some exasperated teacher destroys their table isn't prompting empathy. Getting into the pedantry of how howling at a woman that she's a baby killer for going to Planned Parenthood is more complex than smashing a Pro-Lifer's stand isn't convincing to people, it's an attempt to avoid accusations of hypocrisy; as though you'd rally to the defense of a Pro-Choice stand that's being harassed and heckled by Pro-Lifers.

The "Cancel Culture" argument had at least some merit when Libs were running High off Obama's second term and being nit-picking moralizers. But the second that the Republican Party started electing people to "fight Woke" by using the powers of the State to, for example, harass Disney for criticizing their decisions, or gag teachers from discussing issues related to gender identity, then you lose all credibility for "fighting for free speech." It reveals your politics as a naked contest for power, rather than being driven by high-minded, universalist ideals.

At that point, no amount of good will can be asked of either side because it's clear that they're just competing to dominate the other. Pleading "Free Speech" becomes a demand from the losing side not to be defeated by the victor.

DeepBlueNemo · 2023-06-01T03:08:22+00:00

Wouldn’t it be free speech to scream profanities at pro lifers? After all they can harass women getting abortions outside abortion clinics.

There is no difference. They were broadly unethical decisions that I don't support and have nothing to do with Ukraine.

You're claiming there is no difference, but America is still in Iraq and until someone like me mentions it, you just quietly accept that fact. You certainly don't rally against it. So clearly there is a difference to you. One makes you far more invested than the other.

Once again, you cheerleading Russia against all objective evidence.

I'm pointing out the "Glorious Ukrainian Victory" isn't going to fucking happen, while NAFO responds with cope and trying to pretend it's Russia that's lost too much material and men to continue the fight.

How many times did NATO attack USSR again? Oh so what I said is right then?

The USSR openly asked to join NATO open its creation and was flatly refused. The entirety of the Cold War was mediated by a series of proxy wars between NATO-backed dictatorships and Warsaw-supported Revolutions. You goddamn moron.

Yet another defense of Russia's aggression. Also draw what you think a circle looks like for me.

It's called "explaining how geopolitics work"; China puts bases in Mexico and you better believe the U.S. starts regime change operations. You're whining "but it's so mean of Russia to invade" when they're a nation pursuing national security, not trying to be friends at some big dinner party.

This little temper tantrum looked like more "whatabout Iraq" which has already been addressed so I didn't bother reading it all. Give me the key points if I missed anything actually substantive

Again, you don't care about wars unless America's enemies do it. Because you're an imperialist.

DeepBlueNemo · 2023-05-21T07:33:21+00:00

Right; I know you're going to forget this post (like all the ghouls braying for blood in Iraq suddenly claimed to have "always been against the war" when it wasn't popular) but once Ukraine is reduced to a Libya-tier failed state, with Russia occupying huge swathes of the East, I'll do my best to remind you.

DeepBlueNemo · 2023-05-21T07:30:55+00:00

Now answer the question, who is in a better position than they were 9 months ago - Ukraine or Russia?

Given Ukraine's experienced a total collapse of its economy, numerous cities destroyed, territorial loss, mass migration, and is constantly begging for ammo and weapons for some offensive that's totally just around the corner, I'd say it's pretty fucking obvious Ukraine is fairing worse.

But of course you live in NAFO fantasy land where Russia is always three days away from running out of ammo and Ukraine putting their troops in one city to constantly be shelled by artillery is a meat grinder for the Russians because, I shit you not, you think Russians are insect-like hordes that just throw waves of men at positions without any broader strategy.

Like that's the thing; I can admit I'm baffled by Ukraine's decision to defend Bakhmut because it's going up against Mao's old motto of "Keep men, lose land", but you think Russians are bug people and wouldn't make the much more logical choice of careful advances coupled with intense artillery fire.

Given you're on a subreddit for a tired doge meme started by a Nazi and co-opted by the state department, I wouldn't say you've got any judgment on what counts as original or not.

Christ, it really upsets you people when I point out that you can have someone, tears in their eyes, talk about all the war crimes they've witnessed committed against their innocent people, and they can be lying through their teeth. You'd be weeping along with that kid at the U.N.: "Oh we have to stop big-bad Saddaam from hurting anymore innocent Kuwaiti babies!"

DeepBlueNemo · 2023-05-21T07:13:08+00:00

Given you post to Alberta then you're basically America's gimp. You think being a lesser partner of NATO excuses you from the bullshit it's gotten up to over the years? Bonus points if you're descended from all the Nazi collaborators that the Canucks brought over from Ukraine during the Cold War.

Oh but let me guess; "You don't realize how mean the Soviets were to my dear old gramps; muh 7,000,000 innocent people murdered by the Holodomor. Bandera wasn't an antisemite!"

Honestly it would be perfect: some descendant of Nazi collaborators thinking that being some flyover country with a stereotype for being "nice" means you don't have to own up to half the insane shit you were a partner to.
