i genuinely don’t get why some people are surprised re: stramer’s “imagine if we were as poor as eastern europeans 🤢🤢” little speech. “i’d expect better from labour” and i don’t!
we’ve been witnessing corbyn acting like advocating for russian imperialism is his job since the 2021 escalation, and you still don’t get that western left would sell the entire eastern europe to satan for a corn chip? the biggest ‘acknowledgment’ we ever get is being a punchline
Responding to stuff like this as a Syrian liberal is so fun because all I have to say is "it is not good that Bernie is celebrating a man who insinuated that my people gassed themselves to death" and I get accused of being a fascist.
Artsiom was held in a detention centre for 3 days. His parents and a lawyer weren't allowed to visit him, which is again any law. He was transferred to the centre for mental health, where he is being held at the moment. A criminal case was launched against him. This is so cruel.
#Belarus As real terrorists, the KGB took hostage 15-year-old Artsiom, the minor brother of an admin of a @telegram channel of Belarusian railway workers. We knew about the movement of Russian troops & other insights thanks to this channel. The KGB demanded to delete the channel.

Yet another massive air raid alert across Ukraine. The debate on the origin of a missile that landed in Poland shouldn't obscure the cause: Russian missile strikes on Ukraine, largest since the start of the invasion. Millions of people in Ukraine, Moldova,left with no electricity
It's honestly telling that we're "villagers" and "backwards peasants" when you need to play down and mock our deaths, yet suddenly become "blue eyed blonde Europeans" when you need to play up our privilege.
RIA Novosti calls out Poland for advancing contrasting narratives on the missile strike. Of course, Russian state media always advances a consistent story.
