my lib father was quite taken off guard when I said that Zelensky is an autocrat, and asked him if this was the "western values" he believed they were fighting for. I mentioned how he had shut down all opposition parties, canceled elections & assassinated his political opponents in DPR/LPR.
All he could muster was a half-hearted defense of him that it was war time and elections would be held afterwards, but I brought up numerous examples of nations holding elections during war time (Such as Russia recently, Britain in WW2, USA in WW2, etc). He basically just gave up there and admitted he was a dictator.
got to do a hard cut off of the internet, it's fucking with your dopamine levels and shit.
get on a good sleep cycle, go to the doctor (if you have coverage) for depression & lock yourself hard into a hobby. It can be cooking, gardening, walking around outside for a few miles per day, just make sure it's out of your apartment.
That's what has helped me. Also reaching out to friends/family and joining in their hobbies and activities can be fun.
politely asked a guy filling his gas next to me stop smoking cigarettes while handling gasoline
he started screaming expletives and slurs at me, calling my car a f-slur-mobile and attacking Palestine (I had a pro-Palestine bumper sticker). Subaru and Palestine catching strays.
The boomers are not OK. They come back to their birthplace (leaded gasoline stations) and attempt to blow it up to complete their life cycle
they are doing a genocide, but also they are our friend and ally and have a right to defend themselves
Breath through the Tube 
They aren’t, they are saying to vote Kamala as harm reduction in 2024
it will be less of an invasion, and more of a willing occupation of "peacekeepers" who will remain there permanently to create a buffer between Russia and Poland
if nuclear weapons are being used, civilization is fucked. this has little to do with civilian nuclear energy
even the most cut corners janky capitalist nuclear power is better than what we do now with killing the world with oil. Coal power plants killed more people in the last year than nuclear has in its entire existence, by several orders of magnitude
Zelenskyy has perfected it. Just cancel elections and declare yourself the most democratic nation on Earth
notice how principled socialist nations don't have a "green" party screaming about nuclear power. Western leftists, take note.
wondering when this particular contradiction will boil over
she doesn't think war crimes harsh the vibe, she wants more. She attacked Obama for being too soft on Syria/Assad, stating he needed to invade
she attacked Obama for being too soft on Assad, stating he should have invaded when "red lines" were crossed like chemical weapon attacks. Imagine being more imperialist than Obama.
what did Joker do that was reactionary? What he did would have been adventurism if he had any political intent, but instead it was just him killing shitheads. He killed a bunch of chuds who deserved it and instigated a class riot. What's the major rightwing thing he did?
china also doesn't allow foreign missionaries, only local Chinese people can be missionaries in China
