I have a nephew who makes this same face when his diaper is fully loaded.
And just like my kids, I’m sure your nephew produces putin-tier unspeakable horrors in the process
He keep talking about liberals and insists I read more Bluey Theory.
This meme made me ugly laugh
If the Generalissimus says so, it must be true!
Huh, TIL. I thought that was just a fascist thing, it’s an actual rank.
This pic never fails to make me laugh. He’s holding onto that table for dear life lmao
I bet he’s as high as a kite and he’s trying to stop the room from spinning
“I shouldn’t have railed all that ketamine”
Putin fucks ketamine confiRmed?!??!??😳😳😳😳😲😲😲😲
Oh no
😰 Stalin, halp
Have you tried consulting Lenin’s slowly decomposing corpse?
Zombie Lenin suggested gtfo Ukraine, so he had him shot and buried again. He’s got a team looking for the Romanovs’ mass grave now.
I’d try asking Trotsky about Ukraine, he has experience there and with an ice pick in his brain he’s still more competent at strategy than Russian high command
What do you mean, the Ukrainians and American equipment are already there. This is easy!
Putin: Uhh, so, I’ll sub in Chechens and Chuchkis. At least the software updates for the missile CNCs still roll in from Germany. Thanks Stalin!
Stalin: You’re welcome! I’m waiting in Orthodox hell for you with an open window that drops 100 feet right back into the floor it’s on.
Seriously, why haven’t we bricked their machine tools as part of sanctions?
Money.
Same reason Germany still supplies air to surface firebombs that Australians use on Papau New Guineas.
Use present tense? WTF are you talking about. Those countries are not at war, and actually have quite active diplomatic relations.
Well Australians, likely but not necessarily some sort of government or military entity, supplies the bombs to Indonesia who uses them against Papau New Guinea, and this is well documented that those people are being massacred so I don’t appreciate your dismissive attitude, frankly.
Oh, you mean Indonesia and West Papua. Yeah, sorry for the dismissiveness, but I read a lot of crazy geopolitics theories on Lemmy.
I don’t think that’s the same, actually. That’s a brown place where, according to the Western psychology, atrocities are allowed to happen. Ukraine is not, and that’s why every other reasonable lever has been pulled against Russia. It’s strange to me that they gouged every industry that relies on oil before the machine tool industry.
Why, do you want western intervention in West Papua? I mean, I see this with Venezuela too. If we care, we are hypocrites, if we don’t, we don’t care about human rights, if we care about Ukraine (right on top of EU borders), we are racists, because we only care about “white people”…if we talk about anything outside the western world like Mali…it’s imperialism 🤐 . What about Haiti? What about Sudan? What about Houthis? What about Myanmar? Always with the context-free whataboutism. So, what is it? Is there a world police or are there things you leave to the locals to sort out on their own?
I’ll be honest, it’s not a conflict I’ve followed closely either. Direct Western interventions usually go poorly, though. Arguably because we don’t care enough to expose our own people to the risks our allies have to face. All Afghans saw was a giant bunker with a loudspeaker that belted out (broken?) Pashtu about something called “human rights”. Not very convincing.
I’m not sure what your position is. Mine is that the world is full of political bullshit and I’m a nobody, so I do whatever small thing I can to make it suck incrementally less. Explaining why freaking out over 9/11 is dumb when that many people die of worms or whatever each year is part of it. If I was in charge I’d be all about multilateralism and transferring wealth aggressively to the third world where their institutions are strong enough to accept it, but I’m not.
The people talking about “imperialism” in a non-historical context tend to be full of shit. I advise you to not take them too seriously; normal people use different words now that the actual empires are all dead (minus Russia, sort of). The people talking interventionism are almost non-existent post-Afghanistan.
My position is simply that no other conflict in the world, including Gaza, can be compared in priority to something that is happening at the scale and in your borders like Ukraine, like you happened to suggest.
I mean, show me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ongoing_armed_conflicts in this map, which conflicts do you consider useful/ethical/moral/whatever to put in the news or send UN troops to and which ones do you consider “dumb” and ok to ignore?

Fuck I hate friendlyjordies. How someone so consistently sounds like a smug, condescending twat is beyond me.
Their team collected evidence and confronted Thales regional deputy chairmen with the evidence. It’s a primary source. Their main presenter you complained about isn’t even in the entire segment of that timestamp onwards.
They pinky-promised us not to use the machines to produce arms.
Or they were on land-transit to Asia when the official customer, who was on the freight papers when the equipment left the EU, found a customer in russia(n arms industry)
Why does Putin look like he’s trying to push out a wet shit but it’s stuck?
Resting dictator face
Pull out of Ukraine.
