- If anything, the "Iraq too" joke is even worse, but I guess I'm not one of the 200k dead civilians from Bush's war, so what do I know?garbage

https://inews.co.uk/…yuekit - I have work to do, but using Trump's years as a touchstone for how a president should be is a fool's errand.. He wasn't just a daily gaffe-master..garbage

- they do have the 2nd largest army in the world. they dwarf Ukraine army. my take its because they planed to have it finished by now but it's dragging on.pango
- and social media is flooded with russian army being humiliated. possibly due to russian media black out.pango
- even tho everyone's cheering Ukraine on but russian army still more likely to win the war in the end.pango
- But it‘s a fact that Russian equipment and strategies are failing on masse and troops even lack food and other logistics (fuel, etc).NBQ00
- On top of that demotivated Russians are abandoning their vehicles and surrendering. That said they‘re still overwhelming force but Ukraine is resisting greatlyNBQ00
- its a sad reality unless something else happens.pango
- Just because the army is large, doesn't mean it will win. Look at the US in Afghanistan/Vietnamrobotinc
- Ukraine army size ranks 22 in the world. just above canada (wait wut...)pango

Just saw footage of a toddler being pulled out of rubble in Ukraine, limp and most likely dead, despite efforts to revive.
I instantly - and I mean instantly - started blubbing.
Having a kid really does flick a switch in your brain.
- would be interresting if their is some empirical data around that gives a view if u get more affected by horrors of this scale if you have children ..neverscared
- laterally, whether fathers are more likely to go to war if they think it'll help give their partner and kids a better chance of survival.Nairn
- I imagine there's a strong genetic basis for increased emotion in the face of a mortal threat, where useful.Nairn
- I don't have any children and I feel the same way when I see kids die.utopian
- I try and avoid watching anything like that now. Doesn't do you any good to see that and it ends up haunting you.PhanLo
- Yeah, soz, I didn't mean to suggest I'm somehow more emotionally worthy than peeps without kids. I just couldn't help but imagine it could be my kid is all.Nairn
- Narin, I have to say, that was a relatively cunty thing to say. Parenthood doesn't confer special empathetic powers those of us who aren't parents don't have.Continuity
- I don't think there isn't a non-parent among us who isn't deeply affected by the images of dead children we've seen so far, myself included.Continuity
- I'm remembering the horrific images of the two young parents bringing their little girl into a hospital after a bombardment a couple of weeks ago.Continuity
- She didn't make it. And the anguish of the parents was so awful. Haunting.
I'm a bit disappointed in you, mate.Continuity - I've felt utterly horrid watching shit about kids from Syria prior to my kid, but I never burst out crying in a pico-second of seeing it. THAT is what I mean.Nairn
- I'm talking about me here.
As always.Nairn - Don't call me mate. I'm not English.Nairn
- Also, having a kid, physiologically absolutely fucking does confer 'special empathetic powers'. Until u have a kid, u absolutely do not understand.Nairn
- Unless you had young siblings or cousins or whatever around you as you grew up. As I grew up, I didn't, so whatever phermonal/ hormonal shit works its thing, ..Nairn
- i did not have. Where you're concerned, I was, and mostly am, exctly where you are but 4 years ago. There's just an additional nuance which I don't really likeNairn
- Like, I'm laying my heart and my new found weakness out for you here, you cunt, and you chide me for it?Nairn
- Just kidding, I don't give a fuck.Nairn
- Sigh.Continuity
- Yeah sickening, and all you see on Twitter is posts claiming Ukraine is racist because they weren’t letting Indian and African students on trains first._niko
- First before Ukrainian women and children. These children that stayed behind and are now dead. Better dead than non-woke I guess._niko
- I teared up at just seeing a family fleeing and the little girl had the same teddy my wee boy has.microkorg
- @Nairn, I understand your emotions are confusing you. but it's because they're white. You should come to terms with it.Khurram
- plot twist! naim's kid is actually brown.pango
- lolfadein11
- to be fair to Nairn I know what he means, I started crying at anything involving harm to kids after becoming a parent, it was upsetting before but way worsefadein11
- when you imagine your own in those situs. He clearly meant no offense.fadein11
- I noticed a difference in myself becoming far more emotional and empathetic when confronted with this type of thing after becoming a parent. No doubt.monospaced
- agree. i got no kids. completely dead inside. its really obvious when you see my eyes. they're just dead.pango
- I can only imagine Trump, the beloved father of four....maybe five or six soulless children, how he must feel to see children blown up by his comrade Putin.utopian
- I definitely turned soft when i got my first kid, squeezed a tear in interstellar when mr alrightalrightalrigh... realizes the daughter is older than himArchitectofFate
- maybe its from the desaster of covid the last years that everybody got more emtional.. even to the point of inversion into madness like it happend to pootinneverscared
- Nairn never implied that if you don't have kids you are heartless. But for many of us — or most — having a kid certainly does make the impact feel greater.monospaced
- On a related note, I didn't know I could love something this much until I had a child. It's not that I didn't love before, but the new love is more intense.monospaced
- Naim didn't imply that. I was just saying my dead inside.
I kid I kid lolpango - He's speaking the truth, and it's probably biological, but after having kids there's definitely an increase in emotional response related to these things.monospaced
- i hope you're not still talking to me. wasn't being serious at all.pango
- Probably that child-hater, Continuity.Nairn

- They don't want to fight for a lost cause.pablo28

- I have friends here in Romania who live a few miles from the Ukrainian border and they tell me what happens to refugees.pablo28
- You think I care if I get banned? At this point, in the West, freedom of speech has become much the same as in Russia or China.pablo28
- A few hundred men escaping war = 40 million turning their backs on their country/gov't, that's your take?i_monk

McDonald's is shutting down in Russia (temporary move)... that equates to about 9% of their total world revenue (80+% of the stores in Russia / Ukraine are Corpo owned)... huge move for any company given the size of their worldwide losses.
I'm curious as to what other companies that are pulling out were making in that market and what effect it has on their worldwide profits (which effect other markets / stockholders etc).

This war was meant to be a flex on Putin's part and it's going shitingly bad.
On the one hand every nation should be in charge of its own destiny, allowed to make its own rules and govern how it sees fit, unfortunately in the case of theocratic dictatorships in the Middle East, banana republics in S America and N Korea and the likes, this comes at the expense of the liberty and happiness of its people especially the lower rungs of society.
A just, fair prosperous and free new world order is what's needed, unfortunately, it can't be in the image of the shitshow that the US has become.
So Putin was left with little choice in his mind other than to show the world the might of the soviet empire (complete with rusty tanks and state of the art equipment of the 1950's) and the he wouldn't bend the knee to the they/thems and the queers of the world, so war was the only option.
And what would it cost him? best case scenario, they rolled into Kyev with little resistance and annexed all of Ukraine in a few days. Worst case scenario, the war drags on and he sends a million or so uneducated, drunkards and literal criminals to the slaughter, who needs those dregs anyway?
But it's gone worse than that. way worse. He was afraid of NATO boxing him in and now that's exactly what he got, except with a willing participant to go toe to toe with him and actually USE those NATO weapons directly.
All the alliances with South Africa, Belarus, N Korea, Serbia, Wakanda and fucking Disneyland will not help him.
He's a laughing stock, a inept madman with a Napoleon complex. Unfortunately one who also has the ability to press a little red button and end us all.

- Your mistake is that much like Putin, Trump and other right-wing nationalists you start off trying to stereotype people and put them in categories.yuekit
- Also this narrative about the Global South being on the side of Russia...
https://pbs.twimg.co…yuekit - They all had a chance to support Russia directly on a vote over whether the invasion was wrong. Only 4 countries voted against this...Belarus, Syria, Eritreayuekit
- and North Korea. Most countries in South America and Africa voted for the resolution condemning Russia.yuekit
- interesting take KhurramIRNlun6
- I'd argue the future looks more like global corporate tyranny marketed as democracy, but that doesn't necessarily change your theory.IRNlun6
- With the rise of AI, quantum computing, gene editing, who knows what the world will look like in 5-10 years.IRNlun6
- I also agree with Khurram that Canada will probably take over the world. But first Justin Trudeau will need to become dictator for life, crushing his enemiesyuekit
- like he did with the Canadian trucker movement.yuekit
- I don't agree on Canada taking over. Sorry but the dollar and the US aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Canada is certainly rich in resources though.IRNlun6
- You're losing your cool you little NAFO terroristKhurram
- PS The tech future belongs to China. Deal with it.Khurram
- PPS Fuck Trudeau an'all. I hate him almost as much as I hate Biden. I hate all you centrist mother fuckers.Khurram
- That's not cool man, you need to uncritically support the leader of your country just like you advocate for the citizens of Russia and China.yuekit
- I'm starting to suspect you might not be a REAL Canadian...real Canadians support Trudeau without ever questioning this choice.yuekit

https://helios-i.mas…yuekit - It's very cool. I hate all you centrist motherfuckers.Khurram

- a story on mass migration, Sri Lankans looking for better opportunities, NGOs promise EU passports, migrants are given Iraq passports...IRNlun6
- Just wondering why the political systems you seem to think are good for developing world people don't apply to Canada.yuekit
- migrants are dumped in Mosul, a balkanized wasteland at this point, with WFP blaring progressive propaganda about diversity...IRNlun6
- WTF are you even talking about.Khurram
- Start a thread you little dickhead and I'll jump in. You'll have no doubt about the "political systems" I advocate for.Khurram
- all groups hate each other since they're in a wasteland, no common bonds aside from poverty, and no opportunities.IRNlun6
- Sounds very depressing IRNlun6 but what's the takeaway? Some people are in tough situations, isn't it better to help them than not to?yuekit
- @Khurram The point is if you favor a system more like China or Russia over liberal democracy, then you should think about what that would look like in your ownyuekit
- Meh, go fuck yourself. You have no idea what I favour.Khurram
- country. It's easy to idealize a place on the other side of the world you never lived in.yuekit
- Russians are neoliberal capitalists just like you cunts.Khurram
- "the point is" ... what a fucking tool.Khurram
- Or on the other hand, if you don't think Russia's form of government is good why would you support them taking over part of Ukraine?yuekit
- They have the same form of corrupt oligarchic capitalist governments lol You don't even have the basic education on these things to comment.Khurram
- Here's something your lying media no longer reports on....Khurram

- Just an "actor" just an ordinary "everyman" with off-shore Panama accounts, nothing to see here. Move along. He's OUR MAN lolKhurram
- It's very small time stuff compared to Putin
https://www.icij.org…yuekit - Yes Ukraine had a lot of corruption but they're in the process of joining EU which requires reforming all of that.yuekit
- Yeah i mean, you're comparing apples to oranges, it's not that big of a deal, come on, minors, just minor tings lolKhurram
- Ukraine is moving in a democratic direction, Russia is moving in the direction of being a dictatorship.yuekit

- I'm an international socialist. I wanna see the end of capitalism in all places everywhere. You have no idea what you're talking about.Khurram
- Do you consider China socialist? What about the USSR?yuekit
- True socialism cannot exist in a sea of rapacious capitalist states. We need a global socialist revolution. Workers of the world unite!Khurram
- Start a thread. I don't have energy for you.Khurram
- So the thing you advocate for doesn't exist anywhere, but you somehow know it's good. Hmmmyuekit
- 'Ukraine is moving in a democratic direction' is that why Green Shirt Guy outlawed all the left-leaning political parties and threatens their members with jail?face_melter
- https://twitter.com/…
Which 'democratic' direction is this? Almost a full house lolface_melter - The SBU have been murdering opposition politicians. Another inconvenient "truth" their media refuses to report on.Khurram
- You're attacking Ukraine for banning pro-Russian political parties, during a time when Russia is invading them? lolyuekit

https://en.wikipedia…)yuekit - lolKhurram
- "During the Russian military invasion of Ukraine, a number of functionaries of the Nashi party cooperated with the Russian troops and headed theyuekit
- military-civilian administrations in the territories occupied by the Russians."yuekit
- ^^ Little NAFO terrorist over here quoting wikipedia lolKhurram
- This is one of the members of the party, they are now running what's left of Mariupol after it was destroyed by Russia.yuekit
- https://twitter.com/…yuekit
- And remember this is what happened to Mariupol
https://www.youtube.…yuekit - So on one hand you defend Russia's invasion and mass murder, but it's also an outrage if Ukraine punishes anyone collaborating with the invading army.yuekit
- Seems like a difficult needle Ukrainians have to thread, to keep you happy over there in Canada. Of course Ukraine is more democratic than Russia,yuekit
- the fact that "green shirt guy" got elected out of nowhere with a totally new party shows this. Most of the government in Ukraine is younger people in their 40syuekit
- whereas Russia is run by a bunch of aging former KGB officials and led by the same person for two and a half decades.yuekit

- They are trying to live their lives. And this city is central Ukraine and not not seen much action since a few attacks early on.ETM
- Given that my wife and I have taken in a young mother and toddler fleeing Ukraine, I say FUCK RUSSIA. There is no viewpoint from their side I accept whenETM
- it comes to Russia's disregard for civilians and general rules of war.ETM
- Well they were acting so tough sending drones into Russian territory and their crack-teams of paramilitaries across the Russian border.Khurram
- Fools are gonna get bombed back into the stone age.Khurram
- BTW, what happened to their show trials of Russian soldiers accused of war crimes?Khurram
- They had that one guy in the dock looking all pitiful, but since then their moral righteousness seems to have petered out.Khurram
- What happened? Bad PR blew up in their face? Realisation that Russians have massively more of their men in capitivity than the other way around?Khurram
- Russia is slowly grinding across Ukraine, destroying homes, agriculture, infrastructure. Displaying people. Leaving no reason for people to return.shapesalad
- ^ that is how you destroy a country and slowly drain it till you take it. That is what Putin and Russia are doing. Ukraines perhaps can fight it,shapesalad
- but the civilians need to leave asap. There is no hope. Take you precious belongings and go. At least you can stay safe and alive in the EU.shapesalad
- *Displacingshapesalad
- Khurram. Theres no report of Ukrainian army attacking Russian civilians. It's not comparable. Russia started the war. What do you suggest Ukraine to do?pango
- @pango many people were kidnapped in the occupied territories and sent far out into Russia...grafician
- lol @ the idea that it's outrageous for Ukraine to fight back when they are invaded.yuekit
- It amazes me that there are still people licking Putin's boot after all this time...yuekit
- If Hitler had been born a century later there's no doubt he would have an online fanclub. He could do all the same shit and some people would be cheering it on.yuekit
- Russia is looking like the crystal clear Nazi regime and is going to quickly unite the world against them, forever. This is unspeakable.formed

- Boot licking? Let's call Khurram out for what he is- a dick sucking faggot. Always tryna suck Putin's dick, what a loser. Go ride a camel off into the sunset yacherub
- ugly prick.cherub
- Khurram's ears are so big he could spread them over ukraine and singlehandedly protect the whole country lol. No need for missile defense bahahahaacherub
- Um, Khurram's arguments easily dismissed without falling to his level of racism and homophobia.garbage

- Also don't be a racist piece of shit like the comment above. Cmon guys, isn't the average age on this site is like 65 or something, is it too much to ask?yuekit

- Mid 30s here. Actually confused by the insults. @rob wouldn't agree that we're all the better for hearing it..garbage
- ..but it's his right to publicly out himself as a fool.garbage
- “People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.”garbage
- I fail to see how we're all better off being subjected to insulting perspectives from the likes of Khurram. He deserved the vitriolbrandonp
- Russia has been straight-up bombing the fuck out of civilian areas, yet Khurram's attempt to conflate small strategic strikes against Russia's infrastructurebrandonp
- No doubt he's just repeating stuff he read in pro-Russia media. Like the thing about the POWs, does anyone even know what he's talking about?yuekit
- is worthy of our consideration? Fuck him.brandonp
- @brandonp Oh I totally agree. Fuck him. I just think it's fair that he outs himself as a fool. If he wants to embarrass himself, let him do it.garbage

Russia claims it will stop the war immediately if Ukraine agrees to:
- cease military action
- change constitution to enshrine neutrality
- recognize Crimea as Russian territory
- recognize the Russian-controlled areas of Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states- Given Russia's history with Chechnya and Georgia, they'd be fools not to trust Russ.. wait. No, that's not right.
Fuck Russia.Nairn - So basically they want to keep all the zones with the oil and gas resources :)))
Nice try Vladygrafician - Russia still doesn't get they are not entitled to "buffer" states anymore and are effectively trespassing!grafician

For some people the war is only about numbers. The number of refugees, the number of armored vehicles or operations.
To me, this is the first war, where I actually know people personally who are fearing for their lives or maybe even already got killed. Since yesterday, I don't have contact to a model from Kiev anymore. I know she stayed in the city with her boyfriend.
These were modern people, like you and me. They had jobs and belonged to the better-off people in the Ukraine. But their life is ending now at age 27. And all we can do is watch this happen.
We also know where this might lead to and still we can't stop the war.
I cried a few times in the past days (and I barely do). Each morning I wake up hoping this was just a nightmare.
- Well said. I hope these people will prevail and this nightmare stop soon.NBQ00
- they are probably busy with war. don't give up on them.uan

FFS this is grim...a Russian kid's father was killed in the Ukraine invasion.
He writes a letter to the Russian government (supposedly) and they give him...a smartwatch worth about $25. Then go and film a propaganda video about it.
This is a totally broken society, I have no idea how some of you can still be supporting this.
