And all the good little fascists praise him for it.

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

They praise him for this. And are oddly quiet on Israel.

Well yeah he’s been a Russian asset since helped their mob move in on Italian territory

Putin getting return on investment.

We've always been friends with Westasia.

[–] DogWater@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Double plus good reference.

I'm happy Europe is looking to bolster military in the wake of us shitting the NATO bed but it just....fits too well into the story lol

I’d almost think our equivalent to 1984’s “reduced vocabulary” is the question of “Are you left wing or right wing?”

Coming to the forefront as we champion the statistic that, when talking about policies past outrage headlines, a lot of Americans agree on major issues.

[–] DogWater@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah it's purely a difference in critical thinking.

one side listens to what their partisan news and party leaders tell them to hate without question because it's a cult

The other doesn't view politics that way.

It's remarkable how much common ground is under all the bullshit. I know because my wife constantly tells me how silly it is every time someone in her job wants to talk politics. They are mostly trumpers and every time they come away going oh I thought it was kids shitting in litter boxes in schools and oh well I hate rich people telling me what to do.

Like bro. Duh. We are on the same side

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Or well, something like that.

[–] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thank gods for that underlining or I wouldn’t have known what part of those three sentences was important.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

And the whole thing is just such a shocking revelation no one was aware of.

[–] vegantomato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Fork over your country's minerals and we are maybe going to help you, maybe.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 7 points 1 month ago

We've known this since before 2016!

[–] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Wait… there are people that didn’t know this was a thing? I get that the Non-Voting Party pretty much ignored the war crimes committed by Russia in favor of accusing everyone and their mother of supporting genocide in Palestine just to influence an election…

But that doesn’t mean they weren’t aware it was happening.

Who else exists that one might mistakenly think didn’t know this was going to happen? I’m genuinely curious as this seems to be created to generate anger and shock.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

If you wade into MAGAland you'll be surprised.

Looking at what US military is doing to me honestly it sound laughable to believe that their ceo is the puppet of a country 10 times weaker.

Soooo…. What exactly are surveillance planes doing to you personally?

[–] index@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Looking at what US military is doing to me honestly it sound

Forgot a comma: looking at what US military is doing, to me honestly it sound

That said these are my tax money and having planes flying in circle over your house may be quite loud for people living there.

[–] UncleGrandPa@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

so Putin is FINALLY getting his monies worth.

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

He also abandoned the Kurds

He patted the demented rapist on the head.

Execution is the only viable result

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's what is supposed to happen to traitors

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Lots of things that are supposed to happen do not now

[–] ObtuseDoorFrame@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Ah, yes. Welcome.

[–] civil_drive@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The mental gymnastics needed to keep supporting this lunatic are staggering. His supporters are truly hopelessly lost.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

It's true, but it has not changed at all despite everything.

We're in the stage now where people think it can be stopped or maybe some of his voters will "wake up".

They will not. It can not - not with our corrupted corporate news sewers and fascist social media.

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

He's also not providing military support to and not sharing intelligence with Russia, so that means he's actively and intentionally supporting Ukraine.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah right

I think you're kind of missing the point. I was pointing out the obvious self contradiction in the Bush-Cheney era "you're either with us or against us" war criminal rhetoric. I'll spell it out some more.

You personally are not providing weapons to Israel, nor intelligence. Does this mean that you personally are actively aiding and abetting Palestine?

When America invaded Vietnam, Angola did not provide weapons and intelligence to Vietnam. Does that mean Angola was actively aiding and abetting Vietnam?

When America invaded Iraq, France did not provide weapons and intelligence to America. Does that mean France was aiding and abetting Iraq?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Uh, ok and - fair enough, as far as that goes.

But, do you see that trump is actively aiding and abetting russia? By disrupting Ukraine's army and giving intelligence to russia?

Your original comment was that trump wasn't doing that. But he is.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Yes. We know.

Next.
