@StirringDragon If you don't trust Z, you shouldn't trust Putin either. And Trump doesn’t primarily want peace: he wants world power. At all costs. Like Putin.
English

Why do you trust Zelensky so much? How many US lives are you willing to sacrifice to support his demands? Are you willing to go fight in his war?
I do not believe Zelensky has Ukrainians (or the worlds) best interests in mind nor actually wants peace. Trump showed the world last week that Zelensky has been negotiating in bad faith with America. He doesn't deserve another dime from us and definitely not American lives dying for him.

Propaganda? Let me tell you a little story about propaganda...
The Russians were made to be the "bad guys" for decades because of the Cuban Missile Crisis. However, the US government hid the real truth from the American people for 25 years!
The truth was more disappointing.... the US put nukes in Turkey that were pointed at Russia. When Russian discovered that they basically did the same thing and said ok we are going to put missiles in Cuba, how do you like them apples?
The inconvenient truth (just like this Ukraine war) is that the US had a hand in this crisis. The way the CMC ended was with a simple phone call by Kennedy and him agreeing to remove the missiles from Turkey. (Whether he actually did that is an interesting rabbit hole you can figure out for yourself)
So did you fall for that "Russia=bad" Cuban Missile Crisis propaganda? Of course you did, along with just about every other American, because we were not given the whole picture and the real reason was "sealed" from the people for 25+ years.
But today we have more of the whole picture, along with history to learn from. At its core, this war is similar to the CMC. I've been consistently saying this since it started, and got a ton of slack from NPCs for it too. Long before any of this so-called "Russian propaganda" you speak of. This crisis could have been ended the same way it was before, in 2 weeks, with a simple phone call from Biden. But the warmongers saw opportunity to profit off it.
Anyway don't take my word for it, go ahead and research the CMC for yourself. I was pretty disappointed when I found this fact out and yes, it changed the way I viewed Russia. There are plenty of other articles you can read about the CMC coverup. Hopefully you won't think they are just all Russian propaganda.

I know there is much more complex history between Russian and Ukraine, but the core reason this war was caused was because Russia doesn't want Ukraine in NATO so they can put nukes and all types of WMDs in their backyard. Nato has been expanding closer and closer to Russia and Ukraine has been pushing for membership into NATO. Putin has been VERY patient with the NATO expansion, but he has been pushed too far. He draws the line at Ukraine being allowed into NATO and them putting missiles next door. Putin's even said this himself multiple times, so it doesn't take a brilliant rocket scientist such as myself to explain it to you or to the world. 🤦♂️

@StirringDragon you have completely fallen for Russian propaganda. Sad.
English

@StirringDragon Btw: "backyard".. take a map and find the states of Norway, Finland, Estonia and Latvia and take a look at their russian borders. All NATO members btw....
English

@StirringDragon I don't care about CMC (which is just 1 example of others the same or the other way round...welcome to politics). I don't get it why the Americans now think Russia is their best friend now... what happened? Just because "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"? Starting a war is ok?
English

@StirringDragon I don't care about other events here, but this here is one of a load of Russian propaganda stuff a lot of people just repost without caring about facts just because it fits so well in their worldview. And that's just dangerous.
English

It was an obvious sign of disrespect and Trump knew it.
Trump should have kicked him to the curb as soon as he stepped out of his vehicle and said come back when you’re serious and change your gym clothes.
Sad the people of Ukraine suffer at the hands of this foolish dictator.

@CommodoreBlog Interesting. Bsky didn't worked for me though, it gets some kind of politically very fast on nearly every topic - e.g. I was labelled "hate speech" just because of my comment "I'm not a big fan of metroid prime games" ... Never had that problem on Twitter..or mastodon.

I'd like to do something, but I don't really know what I'm doing, so if you could all tell me what I'm doing then I can do it, and it'll be done. Then you can all applaud me for my skills in having zero initiative and zero knowledge in what I'm talking about? Ok? #retrogaming
