Today's Russia is effectively being administered by its security apparatus, the military being their weaker counterpart.

This is the Russia in which the security apparatus completely dominates all spheres of life. Consequently, this is the Russia the West will have to contend with. It is a weaker and a more unstable foe than the USSR, but, in nature, more unpredictable and aggressive.

This means, even if the war against Ukraine were to end tomorrow, with all the Western security guarantees in place and on the current lines of conflict, Russia simply cannot snap back to the previous political balance of power and the level of trade with the democratic world.

It's easy to overlook the consequences of the transition of Russia's economy towards a war mode, coupled with a controlled deprivatization trend, on the long-term structure of Russia's elites and its political system. This is a strategic shift, which exceeds the scope of the war.

Green Way Forward 🇵🇸 Jill Stein isn't a real candidate. She's a cicada that appears every four years to crap on your car.

Where was she during the Trump years? What did she do other than visit Moscow?

Go back to /pol/, kid. This isn't a fucking game.

La domanda è cosa ci facevano ancora Ariston e Bosch in Russia.

Secondo: è impressionante come il Cremlino, che da tempo ha scelto di abbandonare la realtà per affidarsi alla finzione, abbia cambiato marcia.

Fino al 2021 conoscevamo i russi per l'acume delle loro campagne di disinformazione.
Oggi non si preoccupano più di coprire le tracce.

It is russia's Putin, not Putin's russia.

This is something that many people do not understand. It is not Putin’s war against Ukraine. Even if you take out Putin, nothing will change. He is a symptom of a much bigger sickness.

There's a deep cynicism to the politics of putting a Black kid in front for faux-radical politics dominated by rich white kids.

They will go on to take jobs at McKinsey and as corporate lawyers defending polluters. They will look back on this and laugh

Argomento fallace, anche perché privo delle indispensabili basi economiche e tecnologiche.

La Russia vale meno del 2% del PIL mondiale, un decimo dell’Europa.
Esporta di fatto solo commodities e sistemi d’arma in gran parte obsoleti, settori dove ha perso grandi quote di…

Not talked about enough.

Imagine living in a Two parent black household where your mom was stay at home pops worked two jobs but you weren't the Evans family but comfortably middle class ....

That was my life growing up.

Su Liberi, Oltre le illusioni 🇺🇦🇪🇺 ho scritto di come certi testi scolastici italiani promuovano la propaganda russa. Non si tratta di banali errori o inesattezze, bensì di una coerente e sistematica operazione di disinformazione destinata a promuovere presso gli studenti delle scuole medie

'I decry maximalist, zero-sum approaches and narratives that have failed the Palestinian people for over 75 years. I despise attempts to paint pragmatism and the pursuit of coexistence and peace as treacherous and cowardly.' - Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib

Leia🌻 Pat Fuller Democracy is on the line🟧🟦☮️ Extremists on the left and right united in antisemitism and hate speech. This is not the first time far left extremists have been appropriated by far right white nationalists. Students should not allow themselves to be used this way if they truly want change, not hate

Every single tweet from a New York Times reporter since that Politico story dropped just further confirms how shaken they all are by it, and how little self-awareness they have at how they are coming across.

You are not special. You are not beyond criticism. Get over yourselves.

Honestly I don’t know how you read this article and trust anything the Times writes about Biden politico.com/news/magazine/…

People want something to be part of that is bigger than themselves

But they don’t want the complications attached.

They want to know they are fighting Dark Vedder w/ the clarity of purpose of Luke Skywalker and foreign policy seldom gives that

Annnnnd there you have it.

Protesting is fine. Disrupting is not. You can’t block freeways. You can’t take over buildings. You can’t trespass. You can’t harass or intimidate people. You can’t shut down schools or workplaces.

If you do any of those things, the consequences you face are justified.
