@Pinboard Who needs a silver lining when you can have a biryani one.

I dream of a future where Iran drives out the US invaders after decades of war, and as a consequence there is a fantastic Persian restaurant in every strip mall in the land.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You live in a fantasy world, I live in a city full of Brazilian immigrants 😂🤣

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Ask how much money do a dead man spends? Yet again, have a Nice life. Today is ucranian, tomorrow is the rest of Europe. Dont botter asking for asylum when shit hits the fam.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President @ZelenskyyUa. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Again, just hatred. The people in the trenches are Ukrainian. Their GDP per capita is half of Brazil. You want to see poor people die, because it turns you on. Why are you so broken as a human?

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Than i feel sorry for your future. Go to the gym, learn to shoot. Have a good life, and pray for the end of the war before you’re called to attend. That’s it.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You presented no facts in this argument. Just feelings.

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Brother, i am from Latin American. You are the colonizer to me. I just spot facts. Be as mad as you want. Facts dont care how you. Have a good time in the trench while an another man enjoy your mistress. I couldnt give two shits.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa That's the colonizer's version of the story. You've revealed your all hatred. For what? To "own the libs"? I'm not a lib and you didn't own me, and you're just a sad jerk hoping for a dictator to make a better life for you that you can't. That's never worked in history.

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa The truth is, you guys made a gamble confrontg Russia and you guy lost. Lost the USA backing. Europe Will not rise to defend Ukraine. In the best case scenario, you guys Will defend yourselfs individually. Stop trying to sell democracy as a virtue. It is not. White peopleproblem

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You have nothing to lose here: not your taxes, not your family. And still you argue for the conquering army of a dictatorship, instead of the defending people of a democracy. Why?

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You are asking for Ukraine to give itself as a colony to Russia - you are the one abandoning your history! You can attack where I am born, but only to distract from what you have chosen to stand for.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Without solidarity, with just greed to guide you, you deserve to have your ass torn for eternity. You’ve chosen to side with colonialism, you psychopath.

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Hey man, go fight for the freedom of other people. I live in a fucked up country, and i know Whats like to be fucked. You’re about to found out!

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Nobody has to watch over my wife, motherfucker, she’s strong. Not like you fascist, racist weirdo, trying to stir fear with these weird phrases you picked up from media. Touch grass. What is your hope? What is your dream? You just want dictatorship everywhere?

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa If you say so. Remember. Someone has to watch over tour wife when you”re send of to war. Imagine that: send all the european man to fight on Ukraine and let the refugies in the homeland. What could go wrong? Remember europe birthrate, you guys die more than make children.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Nope. We (the EU) have made the biggest contribution to Ukraine financially. We will do more. There’s no price too high for freedom.

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa And you think freedom is free? You”re about to found out.

@porraviktor @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You’ve made greed into a religion. It’s very strange. We will take freedom instead.

@pudo @bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Fine. Pay that with european money. Inflation is still low for you guys.

@bobandtracym @vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa What if the world didn’t revolve around American partisan bickering? What if democracy and freedom were more important than your self-righteousness?

@vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa Ursula, you foot Zelensky's bill for awhile!!!

@leonidragozin “Not by Trump”? I understand you’re making a metaphorical point, but it looks like a commentator dying from autoerotic asphyxiation from the outside.

It didn’t have to end like this for Ukraine. It could have ended with lofty words, shy smiles, pats on the back and gentle nudges towards negotiations table. But that would probably happen many hundred thousands lives and swathes of Ukrainian territory lost from now. After many more lies about security guarantees, peacekeepers and Russia imminently collapsing. Because the real world is so different from the phantasy world drawn by stratcom experts previously known as spin doctors. Ukraine was betrayed - not by Trump, but by those who shoved it under Putin’s bulldozer knowing all too well how it would end.

@muckrakery Yes: github.com/alephdata - audited yearly.

@pudo Rad! Is the code fully open source and has it been audited by reputable firms?

Fuck OCCRP’s database search engine, Aleph, has been used by journalists and researchers for nearly a decade to search for newsworthy things inside leaks and hacks before reporters make them public. (If they even choose to do so.) Does it secretly send info on this work to CIA?

@XpressHaiti @ryangrim @DropSiteNews You should, like, try reading the news. amp.theguardian.com/news/2017/nov/…

@ryangrim @DropSiteNews Great work !! When the Panama Panama or Pandora Papers were leaked and no US billionaires or American ultra high worth individual was listed we should have know it was sanitized

🚨Major investigation just dropped at @DropSiteNews in partnership with a consortium of independent European news outlets. A major player in global journalism is primarily bankrolled by the U.S. State Department, we can reveal. Story to follow in next post:

@SlamNBang @ryangrim @DropSiteNews Like eg an IRS 990, or a list on the website? Both of which OCCRP did?

@ryangrim @DropSiteNews Yikes. Should be required for all media to divulge revenue sources annually to prevent conflicts of interest

@bannan_ken @ryangrim @DropSiteNews It’s listed on OCCRPs website, in its annual report, and known to everybody in the industry. Very unclear what the revelation is, here.

@ryangrim @DropSiteNews Would this funding have appeared somewhere as a line item of a departmental budget or is it one of the many things we don't know about included in the so called "black budget"?

@KeremSchamberg Dann bleibt noch Indymedia - Recherchebudget: 70ct, Reichweite: 5… Toll, wenn man es mit den Idealen so einfach hat.

@pudo Es ist auch problematisch, dass Correctiv Staatsgeld erhält, ja.

Das wirft kein gutes Licht auf den Journalismus. Weder auf die investigative Rechercheorganisation OCCRP, die von US-Regierungsgeldern gekauft zu sein scheint, noch auf den NDR, der auf einmal keine Lust mehr hat angemessen dazu zu berichten... mediapart.fr/en/journal/int…

@Tim_Roehn @derspiegel Hidden … on the website.

The hidden links between a giant of investigative journalism (e.g. ⁦@derspiegel)⁩ and the US government. 🚨 mediapart.fr/en/journal/int…
