⚡️ Amid chaotic Ukrainian withdrawal, Russian forces reportedly execute 5 POWs in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
"The enemy captured the soldiers in the forest, lined them up, and shot them after interrogation," one report said.
Exactly!

6/6 Why is this dangerous? Because these people have money, social media reach, and political influence.
If they succeed, the US and Europe could slide into authoritarianism and lose the freedoms that define them. Pay attention.
This is not theory, it is happening
5/6 This ideology is not fringe anymore.
It shapes the thinking of billionaires and politicians with real power.
They want to dismantle democratic institutions, concentrate wealth and control, and abandon alliances that have kept the West secure for decades
4/6 On foreign policy, Yarvin is openly pro-Russia and sympathetic to China.
He believes Europe should be led by Moscow, not Washington.
He sees liberal democracy as weak and wants a world dominated by strongmen and oligarchs.
Extremely dangerous!
3/6 Yarvin’s core belief: democracy is a mistake.
He argues freedom creates chaos and inefficiency.
His solution? Replace democratic governments with authoritarian “CEO style” rule, where one leader runs a country like a corporation
2/6 Thiel, Musk, and their circle have gained enormous influence in the US. They helped pick Trump’s VP and installed JD Vance in that role.
These far-right oligarchs are isolationist, pro-Russia, pro-China, and hostile to democracy.
Their guiding thinker is Curtis Yarvin
1/6 How should the world look according to Curtis Yarvin, the ideological father of JD Vance, Peter Thiel, and other powerful figures in the US?
And why should we be worried? 🧵
Elon Musk thinks that he is owning liberals with this meme, but he’s actually perfectly describing Russia’s actions in Ukraine, which he supports

5/5 Either we act now or we have even more Ukrainian blood on our hands.
Do we want to be remembered as those who helped Russia destroy Ukraine or those who said stop?
The choice is ours
4/5 Those assets will be seized eventually whether Belgium likes it or not. It is just a question of when.
Russia will keep escalating as long as it is not done.
Trump will not save Ukraine. It is not America’s role. It is Europe’s role
3/5 This is existential.
If Belgium’s legal concerns are legitimate, then find a solution fast. Much faster than what we are doing now.
Delay means more destruction, more escalation, and more Ukrainian blood.
We are not doing enough. Let’s at least get this right
2/5 Russia’s full-scale war on Ukraine has lasted almost 4 years.
Europe is still hesitating to release frozen Russian assets.
Why? Because profit opportunities and legal fears outweigh the survival of Ukraine and Europe itself
1/5 Do Belgium and the rest of the EU want even more Ukrainian blood on their hands?
If not, release Russia’s frozen assets now.

Putin admits that he wants to turn Ukrainians in occupied territories into Russians, and that he is thus committing genocide in Ukraine.
Too many genocide scholars fail to recognize the ongoing genocide in Ukraine. Shame on them!
That’s what we call a genocide

10/10 Despite Russian propaganda wins and Ukraine’s real struggles, the big picture is clear:
Russia cannot achieve its strategic goals. Ukraine suffers, but it is winning because Russia is failing.
The faster Ukraine scales up drones and missiles, the faster the war ends
9/10 Europe is finally waking up, even if slowly.
It backs Ukraine against imposed deals, moves to seize Russian frozen assets, and recognizes that if Ukraine loses, Europe is in danger.
The tide is turning
8/10 Russia’s economy is in serious trouble.
Sanctions bite harder, energy infrastructure burns, and Moscow faces growing costs it cannot sustain forever.
This war is unsustainable for Russia
