It’s the aesthetic

Seems like a lot of people are depressed, not surprising at all. It is interesting to see the so-called “happiest country on earth” being in orange, its darker than Russia!

I’d like to know why exactly he’s had a change of heart but I’m glad he has.

A “come to Jesus” moment, if you will.

It’s weird to see Jeffrey Sachs be so on top of this conflict and calling it what it is considering he was the architect of “shock therapy.” You’d think he’d be supportive of this war, but maybe I do not know him that well.

I don’t have much to say about this video, I am just glad that the bond is so strong and I hope that it doesn’t ever fall apart. I also love how Ben Norton always gets historical in his analysis which is something that I find lacking in a lot of political science, not all of it but a lot.

Also Xi Jinping is very tall, at least compared to Putin.

Trump really thought he could break them up lol

I could learn a thing or two from them because my negotiating skills are very much lacking lol

The way this is written makes Russian diplomats seem like manipulative, nefarious villains. When really they’re just dog walking the Trump admin because they’re some of the best diplomats around. They are just built different, sorry doing their job is seen as infiltration.

I like how you gave Russia an accent

This will only be solidified when I see Putin and Xi Jinping wearing matching friendship bracelets

Using this photo makes it seem like Gregorio Sorgi and Giovanna Faggionato have it out for Meloni lmao:

That’s interesting. It’s a shame that their good aspects get bogged down by their pro-western angle, to me that would undermine what they’re trying to say. Of course the same can be said about the opposite media in Russia, those that have great geopolitical analysis but are bad on LGBT stuff. Then again, what resonates more with the population? I think one could strike a balance between being pro-lgbt and anti-west, you just have to use different examples and language. Anyway I am rambling lol

I never heard of Meduza before so this was an interesting read. That Kovalev guy seems incredibly unhinged. I am curious as to why he left, “political persecution” is too vague for me. That may be true but I want to know the nitty gritty. Also those games dedicated to clowning on Putin is definitely… a choice. By that I mean it’s not groundbreaking or effective resistance to someone they claim to be a psycho dictator. If that is true then they are not doing enough to defeat it. Anyway, hit dogs holler and it’s hilarious to see how this is another case of major projection.

Yes, are you not European?

Y’all invented it!

But are the people willing to fight? Thats what I’m most interested in

War, probably.

A very “but at what cost” situation they’ve got going on lol

Okay, so Bulgaria, Romania, the Baltics, and parts of Croatia actually get worse with migration. So nobody wants to live there. Interesting. I’m sure these far right parties are aware of the demographic issues, are they closing borders because they want a white majority population? Are they going to close their European borders too?
