Lol is this like satire? Who measures things by “the GDP of Maryland” xD
Many thousands have died needlessly in the unnecessary, unwinnable, and increasingly unaffordable war in Ukraine.
Yeah, sure. It’s entirely a needless and unnecessary war… unless of course they would like their country to keep existing and not get jailed, deported, “re-educated” or killed in the atrocities Russians are documented to commit in the areas occupied.
Somehow I couldn’t bring myself to read more of this bullshit after that first sentence…
Same here. The author did a good job of laying out there position right up front. And their position is based on ridiculous assumptions. There are some genuine concerns with the way the Ukraine government is suppressing opposition voices, but they destroyed their credibility completely before they even got to that point.
Personally, I think the declaration of martial law and the subsequent moves to limit opposition are probably justified when faced with an existential threat like the Russian invasion.
if you click the link to show other pieces he’s wrote, he heavily seems to favor a number of different ‘opinions’ on things. he’s obviously pro Russian. he downplays the role of Saudi Arabia during 9/11, while suggesting that the current administration has allowed the relationship to wither on the vine. he has a piece about how much of a threat Hamas is to the US.
dude’s clearly a shitstain, and most of his writing has a incredibly clear agenda.
Ah yes, trying to delegitimise a state during war by claiming it’s authoritarian, which technically under martial law is sort of true, because it is fucking marshall law, and it’s probably just journalistic curiosity… except it isn’t.
The US media engines are easy to decipher. Nigh 4 decades of absolute populist mind bending makes certain patterns apparent. The past 4-6 months there has been rising descent against Ukraine by various politicians, think tanks and special interest groups. The narrative and concepts are being incubating with the end goal of, you guessed it, to pull funding from Unraine. Why?
The US senate and Congress is filled with boot lickers. They need the precedent however to justify the move. The long game has begun and russian oligarchs are standing at the ready to “donate money”.
Be weary aware, yankies. Your engine of evil is revving up.
EDIT: spelling
Just fyi, the phrase you’re looking for is “Martial law”, not “Marshall”.
Also, “boot lickers” and not “boot lockers”.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The financial assistance and energy subsidies the war has cost Europe and the United States totals more than the annual GDP of Maryland.
As a result of that vote in the Ukrainian parliament, where all opposition parties have been removed, the parliamentary elections scheduled for last month were canceled.
If people wish to join this new church, they should certainly be free to do so, but the government in Kiev has been forcing congregations to switch allegiance and seizing the property of those who resist.
President Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus for Southern sympathizers during the American Civil War, but he never canceled elections.
Churchill actually lost the 1945 British election and had to watch Clement Attlee take the final victory lap for World War II.
Under the guidance of the West’s favorite autocrat—Zelensky—it has created a state-controlled church, taken control of all television news, and banned major opposition parties.
