Obama's BOMBS are "political views" but occupation of Ukraine by Russia is WAR-IS-ALWAYS-BAAAAAD ¹ 1: ignoring Donbass war has been going on for 8 years and Kiev has never respected the Minsk agreements.

@alexl Oh yes, Russia is "freeing" an already free and independent country by invading it unprovoked and carpet bombing civilians. Sounds legit.Russia is the aggressor here. And its people are being lied to. https://www.hrw.org/news/2022/03/04/russia-instructs-teachers-spread-disinformation-about-ukraine

@otso @eliasr The first comment lol... "the Ukrainian government cannot be Nazi because the president has Jewish origins"...Because of the Holocaust everyone thinks about the Nazi-Jewish opposition when Hitler himself considered the Russians as "his Native Americans" (his words) inspired by the conquest and extermination of the peoples of America by the Europeans. And they probably don't know that the western part of Ukraine welcomed Hitler.

@alexl That's quite a projection. And that's understandable when it's the world you live in. But there's been a united front against Russia's invasion. There's no need to muddy the waters. The motivations are clear, the fake pretexts were easy to see though. But Putin is lying and "what abouting" at home to garner support for his war.

@r_libreVideo not available...And it's not a matter of "believe in war", this is offending btw...Russia was forced to solve this with a chirurgical military operation. Ukraine is controlled by Nazi funded by US. The victims are killed only because of Nazi. A normal army would never hide in the cities. If you see authentic bombed building it means those are the weapons deposits of Nazi. This is not a war between countries: Russia is saving Ukranians from Nazi.

@r_libre The difference is that the claims by Russians are documented, Kiev didn't respect the Minsk agreements, US and Biden in particular are clearly involved in EuroMaidan and election of Zelensky. The racist laws against the people in Donbass and Crimea are there. Ukranian army even has an official unit named Azov Battalion that is openly Neo-Nazi and is know for a literal genocide in Donbass, with terrorist attacks for 8 years. Italian journalists documented everything

@otso @alexl Unfortunately, people in Russia do not have democracy and they do not have free speech. That seems to me like the fundamental problem that lead to war. If Russia had been more democratic then this war would not be happening. People generally don't want war. (I call it war although in Russia saying that is apparently not allowed, no freedom of speech there.)As for Ukraine, you might not like its leaders but it's clearly a more democratic country compared to Russia.2/?

No country in the world is a real democracy.3. Russia has its inner issues like all the others but geopolitically they are literally saving other countries from US. Like Syria and Ukraine.

In Italy doctors, health personnel, teachers, professors and university staff and all over 50s are obliged to get vaccinated in order to work.A 19-year-old student of my mother died after the vaccine, forced to get vaccinated to go to university. Draghi, Macron, Biden, Trudeau and all the others are mass murdering criminals.

I strongly support this opinion. nobody over here supports putler. all all his "support" is Goebbels lies, total fake. I have already warned the TS about Kremlin propaganda that he consumed and then spread. but he remains blind to reality and proceeds with reposting this nonsense. if not other posts in his profile I would decide he's a Kremlin paid troll and banned him a long ago. but things seem more plain: this is just another victim of putler's gross and sheer lies. this lie is dangerous and I don't know how to stop it. I just remind people to trust not any official Russian media and any bloggers that spread information from there. but Kremlin factory of trolls is much more than just official media, they are paid for posts in centralized social networks, comments on youtube and so on. they pretend being common people and among stupid senseless posta about kittens they push the propaganda. they did not get to Fediverse much yet, but it's important to tell people being careful and avoid spreading disinformation.

@eliasr Not supporting Putin at all, but I like people to be accurate;If Democracy prevents war, then how come USA has been at war for a vast majority of its existence?It was an ex-field marshal of Napoleon, as King of Sweden, that started the "tradition" of Sweden staying out of wars. Part of accepting him as new Crown Prince by the parliament, was the expectation that he would attack Russia and bring Finland back to Sweden.I fail to see that there is any direct causation.@otso @alexl

@niclas I have two answers to that:First, the democracy in USA is far from perfect. In particular it seems like companies wanting to make money have too much influence, which I think has contributed to USA being at war more than what would have been the case otherwise. Simply put, the military industry has a lot of power, they want business and for them, war means more business.1/?@otso @alexl

US was never a democracy but a globalist and neoliberal empire and is now on the brink of civil war.Yes, almost the whole world has lived in an information bubble for decades and now only sociopaths don't realize it because you just need to turn off the devices and talk to real people to realize it.

@niclas A better functioning democratic system (than the current situation in USA) would mean more power to people and less power to huge companies. (Please note that USA is a pretty damn good democracy if we compare it to Russia which is not a democracy at all. For example, USA has real political opposition, you do not know in advance who will win elections, and people have freedom of speech.)2/?@otso @alexl

@niclas Second, it's not so much that a democracy never goes to war, it's more that democracies tend to not go to war against each other. It is possible for a democracy, even a well functioning democracy, to go to war. But it will not happen without very strong reasons, and it will not be about attacking another democracy. People will never think that attacking another democracy is justified, and therefore a democracy (if it works well) will not do that.3/3@otso @alexl

@eliasr I like your last point, but I am not convinced that "democracy" itself is necessarily the (only/major) catalyst of peaceful co-existence. Integrated economies, stronger cultural influences and exchanges, and regional identity (say European) than national identity (say German).It seems that USA is the major outlier, as it continuously interfere with other nations and occasionally get to invasions. OTOH, Europe had a few thousand years of head start in wars. Maybe tired.@otso @alexl

@niclas @eliasr @otsoWhat you guys call "democracy" is universal suffrage and it's just an implementation detail. Democracy literally means that the people decide but to do so they must be informed, not manipulated by propaganda. Since the latter case, countries like US are not different from China and you have clearly seen it with lockdowns, vaccination obligations and other human rights violations in the name of a not existing "public health".
