The United States(!) of A
I love the way every one is trying to work out how Putin's brain is thinking. Let's see . He believes that we are trying to cancel Russian culture the same way we cancelled JK Rowling and he's prepared to defend Russia against that. And you guys reckon Sleepy Joe is a bit off script.
The veil is certainly coming down on person who previously exuded power and masculinity but now only shows the real psychologically disturbed human being that he is. The only Russian thing being cancelled at the moment is thousands of Russian soldiers lives and military equipment due to his greed and decades of pilfering and corruption in the country which he is in charge of. And that is not the West's fault.

Sypkan, Putin’s reasoning for the war isn’t the US, it is the same same story as ever, power and money.
Ukraine has gas and water resources that he wants while denying them the same resource. Then he also takes all the Black Sea ports for commercial benefits.
This is not a fault of Biden and the usa. Bidens regime change remark was dangerous though and doesn’t help.

Basically, between 1947 and 1989, the United States tried to change other nations’ governments 72 times.
Of course, this includes deposing a democratically elected government in Chile and installing a military dictatorship.
The U.S. is largely indifferent to democracy.

"After the election of Donald Trump in 2016, many Democratic voters felt baffled and betrayed. Pollsters and statisticians had predicted a decisive victory for Hillary Clinton, and her campaign had even attempted to elevate Trump because they thought he was the easiest candidate for her to beat. Conveniently, the Russian collusion narrative and allegations of white supremacy allowed the Democratic National Committee, the Clinton campaign, and the media to avoid asking themselves how they had made such an enormous miscalculation.
In reality, their inability to predict or understand Trump’s appeal to voters was symptomatic of a class stratification that had been building for decades. From the 1970s until the 2008 financial crash, only the top 20% of the country saw its real income steadily grow while the real income of the bottom 80% stagnated. This top 20% consisted largely of affluent college-educated professionals who migrated to the Democratic Party, while large segments of the working class left it. In 1960, Democratic President John F. Kennedy lost the votes of white college graduates, but he won the support of white voters without a college degree by a 2-to-1 margin. For Joe Biden, the results were the exact opposite. In 1992, almost 60% of Bill Clinton’s supporters were whites without a degree, but the same was true of only 27% of Biden voters. By 2018 the top 10 wealthiest congressional districts were all held by Democrats.
The Democratic Party’s elitism problem corresponds to a long-standing trend among liberal professionals. For decades, they have been waging a thinly veiled class war against their perceived inferiors, which Christopher Lasch described in his 1994 book Revolt of the Elites and the Betrayal of Democracy. One of Lasch’s central arguments was that managerial elites had abandoned public debate and their basic obligations to the majority. The economic divide between the Democrat-affiliated upper-middle class and the rest of the country has produced a highly insular intelligentsia increasingly disconnected from reality and aligned with corporate interests.
While the GOP was once considered to be the party of big business, the country’s top billionaire megadonors are split between Democrats and Republicans, and Democrats equal or outpace Republicans in donations from pharmaceutical companies, the tech sector, and Wall Street. The alliance between Democrat-led causes and corporate executives is sometimes portrayed as necessary for holding off an insurrectionist, anti-democratic threat from the right. However, it is this very alliance that has produced highly centralized government and corporate control while curbing free expression and open discourse.
After Trump’s election, many commentators expressed anxiety that his followers would plunge the country into far-right authoritarianism. Instead, it is the class of college-educated Democrats that now openly argues for the value of blind submission to authority and the elimination of personal freedoms. The trend Lasch wrote about in the 1990s has metastasized. It no longer poses a mere threat to democracy—it has become a full-fledged attack on basic democratic principles. Far from upholding civil liberties, the self-proclaimed “resistance” to Trumpism has itself exhibited many hallmarks of authoritarianism: suppression of dissent, demand for unquestioning obedience, and tight control over the flow of information. While scapegoating Trump supporters, a nexus of billionaires, woke corporations, public intellectuals, and Democratic officials have sparked the very descent into authoritarianism they claimed would emerge from the populist right..."
https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/new-authoritarians
"...is not simply a matter of hypocrisy. It is only by painting themselves as victims fighting against their oppressors that college-educated professionals can rationalize their own authoritarianism. The cult of victimhood conjures the specter of fascism, misogyny, or white nationalism in order to justify blatantly repressive measures. This is why, for example, the professional class consistently portrayed unvaccinated people as Trump supporters even though in many major cities vaccine passports mostly excluded Democrat-voting Black residents from indoor establishments. Under the guise of combatting anti-vax extremism, woke liberal politicians embraced segregation and the exact kind of “systemic racism” they claimed to oppose. While considering themselves to be on the side of righteousness and rationality, commentators called for hospitals to reject unvaccinated patients, and some even celebrated their deaths. This is precisely the type of punitive, regressive tendency that progressives warned would be a consequence of Trump’s election..."
"...Moreover, it is not social media but mainstream news outlets that have been the largest purveyors of “misinformation.” One accusation often made against Trump supporters is that they blindly and unthinkingly believe false claims. But during the pandemic this was consistently true of college-educated Democrats, who still hold the most skewed and erroneous views about COVID. In 2022, 48% of “very liberal” people still believed that COVID posed a “great risk” to children’s health despite widely available evidence that the risk COVID poses to children is miniscule. Between January 2021 and September 2021, the CDC reported that 280 children died with COVID (later the CDC would admit that it had inflated its total death numbers by almost 25%). According to the latest available data (from 2015-19), flu and pneumonia killed more children annually. Heart disease, firearms, drowning, and motor vehicles all pose a much greater risk to children than COVID. Believing that COVID is a “great risk” for kids, justifying child mask mandates and school closures, is exactly the kind of persistent scientific illiteracy of which journalists accuse Trump supporters...."

100% agree i really hope he has a chance.
I listened to the Joe Rogan Michael Shellenberger podcast on Thursday, well worth a listen i really hope he has success i agree with los of what he says and believes, i think he has a good balance on things like drugs and homelessness etc
Only area i get disappointed on when he is interviewed is around Nuclear, despite the huge advantages of nuclear, i just dont think its realistic from an economics perspective, id like to see him be challenged on this aspect but Joe didn't question him on this aspect and his recent interview on Triggernometry podcast also didnt challenge him on this, i find that really disappointing.
California is on a the highly temperamental San Andres fault line.
Putting in nuclear reactors potentially could be a repeat of Fukushima.

you need big population centres like europe and asia to make them viable
which comes to indo's point... they are almost uneconomical now, even in those places, with renewables getting cheaper and better

that's without even considering the security risks in an increasingly unstable world

A bit of a simplistic view you have Optimist. I'd say it's a bit more involved. To dumb it down for you in the case of Putin's family this would be the scenario:
The cash you are hiding is probably mostly your cousin's so you are hiding his cash. If you fessed up and told the police state that $XXX is your cousin's money and $YYY is your money I'm sure they would let you keep your money and leave you alone. If you don't well then you're as complicit as your cousin.

BREAKING: Sweden's Prime Minister has decided to apply for NATO membership
— The Spectator Index (@spectatorindex) April 13, 2022
Tweet reports Sweden just applied for NATO membership. Wow.
Also seeing that Japan is being invited into AUKUS, that makes JAUKUS. Apart from being an excellent acronym, those are the maritime island powers (US in a continent-island, but untouched by WW1 and WW2 nonetheless) of the world. Diplomatic shifts that take decades, are happening in weeks.
NATO Double Speak is real dangerous & does not represent the People.
In accordance of Article 51 UN Charter
EU Mutual Treaty Defence Clause 42(7) EU Nations must each assist in defence of Armed Aggression.
Now that offers iron clad defence from Whole of Europe & not selective as NATO.
eg: Nazis (vs) Commies
Lock it in...EU put in 2nd most money after US...(Rock Solid)
6 NATO nations refuse to assist (Not reliable in Crisis!) + 7 Non NATO Nations are assisting
Just saying if Ukraine chose 100% EU Mutual Defence Security over piss poor cowardly NATO Security...
Ukraine would have 100% Iron clad security, sitting pretty & there would be no War. (Putin : "Correct!")
So why is Media plugging NATO.
NATO need more Exercise Yards to drop more gear on final Commie State Assault.
Operating on 8 fronts with more 325,000 troops...soon 367,300 Troops from Crimea to Arctic.
NATO want Northern front bases to push thru on Norway Russian Border to split Russian forces.
Extra 40,000 NATO (7,000 French) Troops joined by 2,300 Finland/Swedish Troops
Here's a shot of Swedish PM fighting on NATO Russian border Frontline
https://newseu.cgtn.com/news/2022-04-13/Finland-and-Sweden-inch-closer-t...
Sweden / Finland are not Joining NATO for defence but to join Cold Response Russian Invasion.
NATO need them as stepping stones for top end assault...hence the Media flipping the NATO poll.
Polls
1996 - 2019 (17-17%) Sweden to join NATO (This low support carries on back to first polls in 80's)
1998 -2021 (5-14%) Finland to Join NATO
https://www.wilsoncenter.org/article/sisters-not-twins-prospects-finland...
These constant low polls can be verified by many the same over the years.
Coincidentally ALL World Media Headlined 1 Fake Poll as backing for their Nazi uprising.
The vote is over 1 month away & needs 75% Vote...don't think we need the Vote...Already a done deal!

currently, Constance. That is all we can control, the present
eg Bucha
Technically that horror has occurred as well, things are now shifting to he Donbas where there are many towns/villages; the Russians will be far more organised and with greater concentration of force so losses for both sides - and civilians - are going to be considerable. Those would be the massacres to stop but it looks like the Russians will not give up their resolve now.
Hopefully while being informed enough by the past so as to have some insight into the future.
Most powers are quite partial to a bit of Bucha, so to speak.

Dont use Twitter but loving Elon more and more every day.
"Elon Musk offers to buy Twitter for $55 billion, says it needs 'transformation'"
"I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy," Mr Musk says in the filing.
Is Elon Musk angling to take over Twitter — or just 'trolling on a planetary scale'?
Elon Musk spent $4 billion on Twitter shares, publicly criticised the company, and then declined a seat on the board. What just happened?
Elon Musk in a black cowboy hat stands on stage with arms raised
"However, since making my investment I now realise the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company," he said in a letter to Twitter chairman Bret Taylor."

The facts speak for themselves but very few care for the truth.
141/193 Votes overwhelmingly condemn Russia's aggression against Ukraine
[ factcheck ] These 141 Nations represent just 42% of World's citizens.
Only 64% of these same 141 nations will permit Refugee Entry as do 67% of lesser assembly.
Fact : Minority of People from least caring nations get to vote on actions of another Nation?
93/193 Votes to suspend Russia from Human Rights body
Again...Minority block of least populated Nations least welcoming of Reffos vote on Human Rights?
We can actually check to see how many of these Nations will commit to their UN Vote....
Like wot...you mean for real? Yes!
33/193 Nations send Military Aid for War. (Not all Nato nations & Just the 4 Pacific Nato Block)
Absolutely No - Sth Africa / Sth America / Central Asia Nations will defend Ukraine.
30/193 Nations Sanction Russia (Some Nato + 4 Pacific Nato)
Absolutely No - Sth Africa / Sth America / Central Asia Nations will impose sanctions (Many Oppose!)
Should not Nations who financed the invasion, first be held to account before those who seek to profit.
Well that sounds more than reasonable & fair...would those fucking evil Nations like to step forward!

I haven’t believed anything the media says about this war since it was reported that the Russians were putting explosives into children’s toys and the mainstream media were actually repeating it….the whole thing stinks and I don’t know what’s really going on but it’s something only Russia and Ukraine can figure out themselves without everyone flogging off their weaponry to Ukraine to feed the beast…..only a neutral ,good, independent neighbour to Russia type Ukraine …and not a little America will ever be a peaceful Ukraine.
