Smoko rule

    Just like Izutsumi, I have not been following some rules that I don't feel like following (posting each time I visit)

    NATO Proposes $100 Billion, Five-Year Fund to Aid Ukraine
  • What needed the spending? Nothing but the delusions of Russian ruling elites. Modern Russia in not much different from the USSR, even in ideology. At least they stopped pretending to be communists.

    But I am not here to teach history to a wall. This thread is overdue for an end, just as my waking day is overdue for a good night of sleep. If you are serious about decolonisation and anti imperialism you should learn about the struggles of all the people instead of choosing which global hegemony to bend your knee to. That's my message.

    I will not reply to further comments.

    Never stop learning.

  • Leave it to the ignorant westeners to teach other people their own history. Surely you know better.

    Also, the USSR crumbled on its own. Its flawed economic system could not bear all the millitary spending. And we are all better for it. Now its remains are poisoning todays Russia, but it will crumble as well, sooner or later.

  • Yeah I am being lied to. I have been fed lies my whole life. I was told that Russia is the most just and fair country. That every war waged was in self defence and all the people within its borders joined willingly and were happy.

    But I was able to see through it. I have learnd that all territorial expansion was fueled by ruthless wars and genocides. Russian expanse to the east is no better than USA expansion to the west displacing and subjigating all people who lived there. I have learned of the terrible fates of people who lived here. Not only of strangers, but also those in my family tree who lived through the harshest times of oppression during USSR.

    But most importantly I learned that countries don't have a right to own other countries. It is the definition of imperialism after all.

    And Ukraine is perhaps one of the most deserving countries to exist. Ukrainians have fought for so long to gain sovereignty and indepndence, but were betrayed. First thrown under the bus by Russian empire, then taken over by USSR during the revolution. And now Russia is trying to subjigate Ukraine again. I can only hope that this time this senseless conquest will fail.

  • The only thing that changed since the start is western faith in Ukrainian victory. I doubt it too. Perhaps something inside Russia has to happen, otherwise the human cost would be too great. NATO intervention could turn it around, but it would be very risky, I don't think it would happen.

    As for the goverments from my point of view, Ukrainian goverment seems to be more impatient and anixious meanwhile the Russian goverment is getting more shameless and ruthless. I haven't seen any major revelations about either one that would somehow prove that Ukrainian gov are nazis and Russia is a better option.

    The main reason I want Ukraine to win is not my belief that countries deserve to be independent and not have their land taken away by nearby imperialist powers. I do believe that, but the main reason is I want the current russian goverment to weaken and possibly depose Putin and reject imperialist ideas, to stop the money from crippled russian economy from going to war instead of public services. That would lay the ground work for further reforms, maybe finally make russia free. It would not be easy, but it is the best realistic option.

    I fear if Russia wins it would be more isolated and more tyranical than ever, akin to Iran or North Korea. The cult of war will completely take over society and individual freedoms will be lost. And the economy will not bear for much longer, that is for sure.

    Living in Russia is terrible and I will probably emigrate to another country soon. Luckly my english skills are good enough.

    What I fear most besides staying in Russia is that I will grow old and never see it prosper.

  • That condescending tone of yours paints the whole Ukraine with a nazi brush. While I believe it does reach azov battalion, the vast majority of Ukrainian army and goverment are not nazis, despite what RT might call them. In fact, I think funding to Ukraine should Increase so it can finally defeat Russia. Not only it would likely destabilize russian goverment, which consists of oil billionaires with a past of crime, corrupt bootlickers and, honestly, unapologetic nazis. But it also would disrupt russian funding for alt-right groups all over the world, which would be a major win against nazism.

  • Weather is getting weird af where I live. This winter the snow only settled mid december, which is kinda scary, because it was supposed to do so 1-2 months before. After that temperatures are mostly the usual -15°C to -25°C, but occasionally there are 2-3 days where it is up to +5°C and super windy and then it comes back to normal, except everything becomes covered in a thick layer of super smooth ice, it sucks.

  • No way this fake ass ml algorithm would ever create this so well thought out and realistic art with such percise details. The image in the post is likely a 3D render with additional edits made in another editing program. Unless people make an AI that is able to construct such complex 3D objects and render them, AI won't be able to make this.

  • Most of my memes are either from r/196, #196 on tumblr or !196, so I have almost nothing to post.

  • I think they need to be defederated. Many users over there seem to be very edgy and tankie. I also saw too many very upvoted posts from this instance with bad faith arguments, idiotic takes and strawmen, with lots of users supporting this crap
