I wish him getting frequently egged in public.

Better safe than fucked up so check in with a psychologist.

Watching that inteview and remembering the first Zelensky’s adresses to his and even my russian people early in the war, I was pretty occupied with an idea of how these two numbheads would be good punching bags once I put a trash bag on them and use a duct tape to ensure their breath doesn’t leave it, and hitting them repatedly with a fist or some blunt and heavy object. I don’t usually accept or encourage violence, but I felt lost watching this shit piece of negotiations and also very, morbidly angry. I couldn’t avoid thinking of going physical with them and it probably took a year and a half from Zelensky’s tired neurons to keep himself contained until the meeting ended. I’m pretty sure he kicked something after leaving it. I’m sure I would’ve if I has been him.

In the 90s media were completely uncut though, especially their coverage of the first Chechen war. Some openly satyrized Yeltsin and he was kinda ok with it. Toying the line started with overtaking НТВ under Putin, the major divide between pro and anti-state stances and publications then happened around demonstrations in early 2010s, and in the end of the decade the latter started to be pushed out until ouright bans and suppression in 2022-.

There were, like, some guidelines, but when coffins of young boys started to arrive in droves and people protested against the war, print media was there to cover it, and this better-to-be-forgotten page of our history is now set in stone and I occasionally see publications from that period, no way to purge them all. Compare it to today, when mothers’ union not against war, but for better treatment of their sons got quietly put down, and the existing media are just a surrogate tightly governed by statesmen.

On the initial question about Yeltsin vs Trump, it’s hard for me to compare them for their context is inescapably different. Boris was, like, the first real elected pres, and a populist at that, and while Trump is tasked with just not fucking things too much, Yeltsin took a wheel in a harsh transitional period. And as two populists they share a lot of what makes their public image. But, call it naive and biased, Yeltsin sounded humble and honest when he talked about what he does, like he believed in it. It felt like he cared, but was a wrong person to be there from the very start, and drunk himself to death some eight years after passing the wheel to Putin being still influenced by that. With Don getting prezzed in after neolibs Obama then Biden and actually doing worse than if he did nothing at all, with empty waving like with the wall on the Mexican border, I perceive him significantly worse, more dishonest than Boris. Even knowing now that two were deeply pocketed by oligarchs (first time, eh?), I’m still find some sympathy towards our drunkie and find some personality and struggle within him, that I can’t say I see in Trump.

The monks aren’t druggies

One of them’s called Meth-odius

It’s a classic blunder of any war on drugs at that point.

And the name of the place they were produced in can be adapted to English as Fuckyoursk.

European market

Russian AvtoVAZ would like a word. It’s factories need no upgrade to follow Cybertruck’s quality standards. There’s a whole new market, the greatest one at that, and I can assure you there is one true place where you can invest into the future industry of cope-caged EVs.

Look, washing myself was never an option.

Wait for Truppet to declare taxes on EU cars or something.

I’m still a bit nauseous hearing about their ethernal reich myth.

Is that what your momma called you?

WHO, governments, responsible media lost the war about representing and reacting to the pandemic right in most places and there weren’t much pushback against misinformation.

Salting the wound: after antivaxxing became a part of people’s identity, got coupled with their political views, the critical mortality rate to sober up the majority only grew higher.

That’s what this racoon could’ve being doing if it was him.

It feels basic but it gets the work done. As long as you don’t need a complex array of effects and graphics, it fits. Most of simple amateur video needs are easily covered.

Wox News everyone.

Citing historical parallels, particularly economic grievances fueling extremism

It is correct, but I struggle to compare late Wheimar economics to Biden stickers for gas stations sold on Amazon.

Just Дональд, Московская область. Moscow has seen a lot of changes in what is seemed as their suburbs while it grew with time, so it extending to the whole other continent would not be surprising to russians who already rent flats said to be in this region only to have 2+ hours commutes to almost anything. Taking daily flights to work? Still better than traffic jams in the morning.

Zelensky isn’t the best fit, and his opponents in Russia call him a clown, yet this clown used and uses his media knowledge to, as a first face of the nation, keep this conflict feautured in world news, frequent frontlines, give a lot of direct adresses to his own people in this struggle, ask for supplies and support from other nations. I believe, he puts 125% effort into this and is likely shortening his own life by a constant overwork and stress. He and his people aren’t the best, and their country is plagued with post-ussr-style corruption, indeed, yet they do what they think is right in this turbulent situation.

I’d indulge in whataboutism and ask, who we are to compare with the dude. Putin, Trump or Orban? What’s the baseline that’d put him to shame?

It’s weird how a person so seemingly unimportant hasn’t been converted into a scarecrow, made to vouch for key positions in their plan, etc. This man is either sleaky enough to avoid much of responsibility for what happens or everyone in the HQ forgot about him. His position doesn’t mean much power in the US, but it’s really interesting that he doesn’t get much coverage as a legally second in chief and seemingly abstain from everything while, before Musk got the wheel I thought he would play a key role in advocating for everythng techbros are up for.

There is an aspect to that making it simplier in my eyes. Most cases of projection are a sign of being completely unaware of the world around them, other people’s experiences, lack of interest and empathy. Trumps idea of slacking off is rooted in his own leisure routines because he hasn’t talked with average people in a long while if at all. There’s likely not that much of intent, not in his ramblings, but a genuine lack of touch. He’s probably thinking that there are poor golf courses for poor people for casual networking like he does. You know, where they brag about their poor peoples deals, investments and tax dodging. He isn’t a good liar and in his unscripted rants he is showing what he actually thinks. Rephrasing the old saying, if you are Trump, everyone looks like Trumps.

It’s not like I excuse him or think he’d do better if he’d know his shit. It’s just a common occurence that career politicians usually get caught on. My own dictator couldn’t imagine that the average monthly wage isn’t in 7 figures because he usually sat in his bunker since COVID and forgot what money even are.
