@DevanaUkraine It's a test. If you can make your citizens believe that bullshit, you know you're still in absolute control. If they don't mock you, you know they're still afraid of you.
@atrupar Normal people saw that Trump is a serial liar in 2016 or earlier. What is wrong with them if they couldn't see it for 8 more years? Did they think Trump was just going to lie to someone else? Did they think lying about everything would somehow skip the things they care about?
If you still think this is only Putin’s war and won’t affect you — watch this.
Head of the russian Ski Federation, 7-time Olympic champion:
“Drop a serious bomb on central London — and we’d be allowed back into international sports.”
This is mainstream thinking in russia.
Konstantin Malofeev is a massive threat to global stability who is rarely discussed in the West.
As an underestimated figure in modern Russia, he quietly builds the financial pipelines and propaganda networks used to wage hybrid war against the West.
Malofeev has spent well over a decade serving as a crucial economic engine for Russian imperialism. He was a key funder behind the original 2014 occupation of Ukrainian territories and has consistently used his immense wealth to bypass international sanctions. Through his vast Tsargrad media network, he coordinates psychological operations that export extreme, anti-Western narratives disguised as conservative values.
His domestic and political influence is mirrored perfectly in his personal life through his marriage to Maria Lvova-Belova. As the Russian official overseeing the mass kidnapping of Ukrainian children, his current wife is actively targeted by an ICC arrest warrant. This partnership shows that Malofeev is not just a passive media mogul, but an active participant in the most severe crimes against humanity committed by the state.
The global community continues to underestimate Malofeev, which is a mistake. He actively pushes hardline state ideology, enabling the genocide in Ukraine, and funding neo-fascist movements across Europe to weaken democratic alliances from within. Understanding his operations is absolutely essential because ignoring a puppet master this powerful allows the Kremlin to continue its global destabilization campaign unchecked
@Gerashchenko_en It's really amazing how dictators can convince their people that their own life has less value than a piece of dirt in a foreign land that their leader, who bravely stays home on a mountain of money, wants to get.
@ISchiege@d_rabethge@von_manderley Komisch, andere ohne Belege über Jahre als Kokser beschimpfen (langweilig), aber wahrscheinlich würden sie gleich Anzeige erstatten, wenn man sie in Replik als Crackhuren bezeichnen würde. Sofern die ladungsfähige Adresse nicht in Nigeria ist.
🇷🇺 RUSSIA’S OWN SOLDIERS ARE DESCRIBING HOW THE SYSTEM CHEATS THEIR FAMILIES
A Russian soldier claims commanders remove tags and documents from dead Russian troops so their bodies cannot be identified.
The reason is as cruel as it is predictable: if there is no confirmed identity, families can be denied the money they were promised.
That is Putin’s army in miniature. Men are sent into a war of conquest, then erased on paper when they become inconvenient.
Russia does not even respect the soldiers it throws into Ukraine. It uses them, hides them, and then leaves their families fighting bureaucracy instead of receiving the truth.
@NatalkaKyiv I want her to stay until Ukraine returns. Then she can help rebuild ruins with her bare hands. She will own nothing and she will be happy she's alive.
@Berber_Doris_ Ja, 500 "people" sind vielleicht tot, wenn er bei "people" die Soldaten einschließt. Russland ermordet so viele Zivilisten in 2 Monaten.
@MrBradleyFink@Scaramucci Putin is a gang boss and mass murderer who was not threatened, still decided to massacre human beings of all ages and send a horde of rapists, murderers and looters into their country.
Russia is AIDS, oppression, corruption, fraud, violence, worse than any developed country.
@atrupar Future administrations have to make sure that nobody who props up Trump's lie stories like these people will ever get a government contract or employment. Being a garbage person and supporting the degradation of the Presidency into a demented clown show has to have consequences.
O’Brien: Russia would be in very bad economic shape if Trump had not attacked Iran.
The spike in oil prices threw Moscow a lifeline. The longer Trump’s Iran war continues, the better it is for Russia. 6/
