The right is right saying the TV (a public right) is not right, but a little bit left. It has to be a little bit left bc the parliament & government are a little bit right & it’s not Staats-TV but critical. If you cut it in half it’s not more right, there is nothing left.

Day 1284. I am in the heaviest battle of Pokrovsk, Donetsk, East Ukraine.

This is my combat gear and my weapon. It does not shoot, but it delivers A LOT of pain to Russian invaders. With this weapon, they have nowhere to hide.

I am Ukrainian Soldier. That’s what I go through 🧵

This video is the best explanation of how the MAGA cult came into being that I’ve ever seen. Watch every second of it.

More than a week in Ukraine now.
➡️I visited Ukrainian defenders from Kyiv to Volyn, from Kharkiv to Cherkasy, from Donetsk to Dnipro, from Zaporizhzhia to Sumy.
➡️And I have to say: We still underestimate this brave nation.
➡️Russia is *not* on the “verge of winning”. Even though the US widely stopped supporting Ukraine.
➡️The Ukrainian army is strong, resisting and basically stopped most Russian offensives inside and outside the areas Russia annexed for now.
➡️Not because of western support and not even because of its dedicated leadership but because of its national popular will to keep fighting, supporting each other and keeping up logistics and weapons flows against all odds.
➡️At the same time, we still overestimate Russia.
➡️Yes. This dictatorship effectively produces meat and weapons to grind on the war. Russian infantry, Russian KABs and Russian drones of all types - especially optical control and Shaheds - remain a deadly threat to civilians and soldiers. But it is far from breaking the Ukrainian will and ability to resists.
➡️However, this comes with a terrible price for Ukraine. “War is our work now”, one soldier said to me. “We don’t know the difference anymore.” And another said: “There are three ways to leave the army. Without arms, without legs or feet first.” “I’m dead inside. Even if they would let me go, I wouldn’t survive one day in the real world”, a third said.
➡️This war broke millions of people. Not just fighting men, but families, whole communities and entire generations.
➡️None of this is the fault of the Ukrainian government which can either push its population to fight and suffer – or surrender to the fascist aggressor and become a Russian satellite “state” itself. Every real democracy and value-based nation would do the same as Ukraine. And most wouldn’t …
➡️It’s only Russia’s fault.
➡️At the beginning of the fourth year of the war, there is no end in sight – thanks to Western unwillingness to give Ukraine the weapons to make Russia withdraw to the 2014 or 2022 borders or at least accept an unconditional ceasefire. And we have those weapons or we could start producing them at any time. Also without the US and also without risking WW3.
➡️We just don’t want Ukraine to win.
➡️So the war will continue with Russia killing and wounding Ukrainian civilians and soldiers every day and Ukraine inflicting harsh casualties on a fascist nation that does not care about its own citizens to die for nothing.
➡️This is my personal impression after talking to dozens of men and women, mostly in uniform.

BREAKING: Ukrainian cabinet approves the draft of the minerals deal with the U.S.

This is the deal:

1. A fund. Joint ownership US-Ukraine. No more 100% US financial control

2. Shares of ownership take into account relative contributions 1/

Wenn man als Deutscher eines aus der Geschichte gelernt haben sollte, dann, dass man nicht tatenlos zuschauen darf, wenn eine Diktatur fremde Länder überfällt, Kinder entführt und Zivilisten ermordet. Aber es stimmt, Roger Köppel: Zweifellos haben wir unterschiedliche Lehren aus der Geschichte gezogen. Ps. Der Vorwurf der Hofberichterstattung ist natürlich besonders amüsant angesichts Ihrer Pilgerreisen nach Moskau. Jedes Selenskyj-Interview (und Orban-Interview) von mir war kritischer als Ihre Putin-Anbetung.

Ich muss mal ein bisschen ranten: Regulierungs-Monster EU?

Es gibt hier diesen Post - da wird die Entwicklung der Wirtschaftsleistung der USA und der EU verglichen. Einst gleich groß, und jetzt liegen die USA meilenweit vorne. Schuld sei mangelnde Innovation.

Aber das stimmt nicht. Schuld ist einzig und allein eines: Bevölkerungswachstum.

1/ Musk und Weidel sind sich einig, dass Hitler in Wahrheit ein Kommunist war.

Könnte sein. Lasst uns dieser Behauptung ernsthaft und ergebnisoffen nachgehen. 🧵

[Andrew Perpetua @AndrewPerpetua]

Russia strives to destroy us by making us feel like it is hopeless to try. To try anything. To try to fix problems. To try to assert your desires and needs. They want you to feel like there is no point. That is the purpose of their propaganda. And it works on people.

#BSW Die ehemalige sowjettreue autoritäre Linke hat ihr linkes Selbstbild komplett zugunsten eines neurechten Weltbilds aufgegeben und dafür den Sowjetismus gegen einen offenen Russismus eingetauscht. Das primäre Feindbild (Westen, Nato) hat sie bewahrt und bloß „russifiziert“.👇🏼

Es gibt genug Rohstoffe für Energiewende und E-Autos.

Wir können locker die Nachfrage bedienen.

Und die Minen sogar schließen, wenn wir uns klug anstellen (!).

2024 werden westlichen Entscheidern ihre gravierenden strategischen Fehler um die Ohren fliegen.

Dear X Team,

Meret @Schneimere, a green politician, had to endure a lot here on X.

Of course, I understand a temporary suspension, but it wasn't meant seriously, so she should come back. 🫶

For the sake of entertainment... it shouldn't only be the right-wing politicians who go too far in their tone here. 😎🍿

Best regards,

Emma
