One of Russia's big gains the last month has been that it, with its lying propaganda, convinced many in the West that Ukraine is losing and that a Russian victory is inevitable. That Europe in particular can let itself be fooled again and again by Russian lies is beyond my understanding.

The fact that they have been allowed to operate in Russia until now make me slightly suspicious of HRW's integrity, not gonna lie. If they had been asking the difficult questions, wouldn't they have been out a long time ago?

Om de definierar eliten som den socialdemokratiska rörelsen kanske. Annars undrar jag.

Är moderaterna en politisk rörelse?

Ukraina halkar allt längre ner i nyhetsflödena.

Valde spanska, men var fruktansvärt skoltrött, och det gick ut över spanskalektionerna. Det slutade med att jag förhandlade bort ämnet och gick ut med reducerat gymnasiebetyg (läste upp till högre studier via tekniskt basår flera år senare).

❗️In the Pokrovsk direction, a Ukrainian soldier managed to survive torture in captivity and reach Ukrainian positions.

His throat was cut and left to die in a pit with other prisoners. With his throat cut, he crawled to his people for five days and was able to escape

Vad man skulle kunna kalla "intressant".

I always presume that's the case when people like him first start to present themselves as 'good Christians'. He didn't become evil when Trump approached him. He always was, and just hitched his cart to a new horse.

My experience is a building process. Someone does something cool/immersion building and the rest (or I at least) takes note, "ok, that's where the bar is tonight?" and the group moves into a flow state of sorts step by step.

Vill inte låta som en foliehatt, men det är nästan så man får intrycket att det finns en agenda.

Russia *left* the USSR though. If the USSR still exists, Russia isn't a member.

Erik Helmerson: Vänsterdebattörerna vill att vi ska känna empati med Putins morddrönare Det är demokratin som gör att de 105 vänsterdebattörerna kan skriva sin pacifistiska, systemkritiska debattartikel utan att riskera att spärras in.

Om Svenska fred säger nej bör vi nog säga ja. Det är en allmän regel som oftast leder en rätt.

Första jag ägde eller första jag köpte? Första jag ägde var presenter från mamma - Gyllene tider och Ebba Grön. Jag tror det var ett test... För egna pengar så kom jag hem med tre skivor, köpta för födelsedagspengar. Ac/Dc - Back in Black, Motörhead - Iron Fist och The The - Infected.

Edward Blom är en nationalskatt, men folk har ju protester mot ICA att organisera, hur ska de ha tid med självhushållning? Helt orimligt... 🙄

"They just can't be real and effective" is the subtext.

Yeah, I think they thought they were driving through a puddle, not that it would be 5 meters deep.

No.

Ukraine already has a democratically lead government though. But it does sound like a good plan for Russia. A transitional, UN-led government of Russia until actual democratic elections can be held. I like Putin's plan, it's just for the wrong country.

Is someone going to remind Macron that the Budapest memorandum involved a UN peacekeeping mission as well? Which didn't happen, because the involved parties knew Russia would veto it?

Ukraine is the test for where people really stand on freedom, independence and democracy. Those who believe a people should be able to chose their own destiny, live in freedom and democracy support Ukraine, those who don't find all kinds of argument for not supporting Ukraine.

I've heard good things about Notorious and its extension (?) Outsiders. It looks Star Wars-ish, intergalactic wars, bounty hunters etc. And should be fairly light from what I understand.
