this mentality made me doubt and question and delay for too long so i try to push back on it when i see it. You don’t actually need to have always “known” or “shown signs”. If you feel like experimenting you can just try it.
So you can still participate on wider lemmy by finding or spinning up your own instance?
not sure that’s the most important conclusion to draw from the article
yes, but the Russians have nukes so actually no. If you have nukes you basically get to do what you want and the other great powers don’t get to attack you. If you don’t have nukes you don’t get that privilege
I mean they clearly don’t want to be in Russia themselves. Same as how not everyone coming in from Mexico is Mexican.
They’re testing calling now actually. Idk how good it is but I saw the option in settings
So if they’re not even Russian then how are they a ‘security threat’? Why keep them out?? I’ll be honest this just looks like the typical white supremacist anti immigrant bs I usually see from westerners. “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best.” etc
Because it is not enough to simply stop carpet bombing of civilians. If you want to truly stop the violence, that involves eventually giving Palestinians full citizenship and civil rights on the same level as Jews instead of forcing them to live in ghettoes. That’s how a free society works. Until Israel does that there can be no true peace. A separate Palestinian state is not an option because of all the illegal (under international law) Jewish settlements in the west bank making a border impossible to maintain.
Once again, apartheid is itself violence. That’s what the slogan is rallying against
Good bot. This is important enough to be built into lemmy imo
I suspect the reason they didn’t take it is more of internal politics, the current government is synonymous with war and growing more and more unpopular as fatigue and stalemate sets in. They don’t understand what drives US foreign policy; The US keeps telling Ukraine to avoid striking at Russia itself, and moderating the flow of equipment so Ukraine never gets too successful.
The United States doesn’t want Ukraine to lose but they really really don’t want Russia to lose either, because that would cause instability (and god knows what could happen when the government of a nuclear superpower collapses). Like, when prigozhin was doing his thunder run to Moscow, they specifically told Ukraine not to rock the boat, even though that’s when Russia was at its most vulnerable with its command structure in total disarray/panic.
In general I feel like they just want the Ukraine conflict to simmer down already so they can focus on China (and also now that it’s about to erupt, on the middle east).
Brother the whole reason Putin started this war is he was scared Ukraine was becoming too well armed and he wouldn’t be able to invade it in the future. This isn’t ww2, we both know Russia cannot hope to compete in industrial/military output with the countries supplying Ukraine (if only they would actually supply the gear).
And also I might be misremembering but when has Putin asked for much less gotten a ceasefire of any length of time after 2022? Can you give a source?
Well the strategic calculus for Ukraine is 100% guaranteed war now or 95% guaranteed war later. I don’t see a practical reason why ceasefire is a bad option here.
I’m sure ww2 Britain would have been quite happy with a simple ceasefire especially if it meant more time for American aid to arrive
They should take the rioters to a prison in volgograd to be beaten up by vladimir solovyev’s son and made to apologize on camera for their antisemitism. It’s only fair
edit: /s you nitwits
idk we have two carrier strike groups literally right there, I’m sure they feel quite confident that if push comes to shove we’ll bail em out

Our hopes should be that the body politic in both America and Israel (the two countries with power to stop it) wakes up and mobilizes to stop it. This is so much faster and more blatant than what america did post 9/11 that I believe (def biased but also seeing encouraging signs) that we can pull it off this time.
is there not an option to turn them off??
This is what the Soviet movie kin dza dza is about
My (we’re Russian) mom always said it was because true cowboys know that if you take them off a scorpion could crawl in, so better safe than sorry
