The widow of late Russian dissident Alexei Navalny accepted the Dresden Peace Prize on his behalf on Sunday. The posthumous award honored the opposition politician’s pro-democracy work....
Russia is pretty fucked when all the political options are inside the nazi sphere. Navalny was like Röhm or Strasser to Putin, oppose the head of the hydra and suffer the consequences
That is so sad, these kinds of times should already be over in humanity’s history. Why doesn’t anyone have a solution? Are the war mongering powers just waiting for the new nuclear deterrent? Future AI terminators pls just go straight to Russia/China/USA leadership and let the humans be
Historians might look back and see that we now have already been in WW3, Hybrid Warfare / New Generation Warfare has been running rampant for a while between the global superpowers
There’s also conscription in places which don’t attack others, because of an attack threat from a neighbor. I just hope that whatever helps humanity forward, goes to the root cause. Imperialist state oligarchs are a good start. And other billionaires
In announcing changes to the school lunches programme, David Seymour said kids would no longer be served ‘woke’ foods. To clear up any confusion, The Spinoff has compiled a guide to the wokeness levels of some common food items.
Based on that list; here are two ChatGPT generated meal plans, one for a woke person and one for a not woke person (don’t ask about the numbers, it probably can’t count):
Woke Meal Plan:
Breakfast: Avocado toast with quinoa sprinkles (Approx. 350 calories)
Snack: Banana with almond butter (Approx. 200 calories)
Lunch: Quinoa salad with chickpeas, mixed greens, and avocado (Approx. 450 calories)
Snack: Hummus with carrot sticks (Approx. 150 calories)
Dinner: Tofu stir-fry with a side of non-dairy milk (Approx. 400 calories)
Total calories: Approximately 1550 calories
Not Woke Meal Plan:
Breakfast: Bacon and cheese omelette with a side of toast and cow’s milk (Approx. 600 calories)
Not Woke Children: Milk is often a staple in children’s diets for its calcium and nutrient content, essential for growth and development.
Not Woke Farmers: In rural areas, farmers may drink milk from their own cows or livestock.
Not Woke Athletes: Milk is sometimes seen as a source of protein for muscle recovery and growth.
Not Woke Health-conscious individuals: Some people drink milk for its calcium and vitamin D content, believing it promotes bone health.
Not Woke Movie villains: While not a common trope, some movie villains may be depicted drinking milk in a sinister or unsettling manner, contrasting the innocence associated with milk.
Europeans view immigration with increasing suspicion.

It’s just that the austerity cuts on basic living necessities create more instability, for native-born and new members of a society. But that’s probably the purpose, masses are easier to control when they struggle and are helpless
Neoliberal is the oxymoron newspeak word for capitalists trying to pretend they’re not conservatives and authoritarian.
Regular liberals just lie on the opposing side if the spectrum of anything against freedoms, like hierarchies and authoritarianism, thus capitalism as well.
Americans think falsely that moderate right wingers are libs (maybe Brits, Canadians, Aussies have similarly lingo). “Classic liberalism” and “libertarianism” are similar rebrands – name promise freedom, actions bolster the current oppression system. Elsewhere a person has to be an anti-capitalist first and foremost to be considered a lib as it’s the biggest freedom limit our time has (of course there are other anti-capitalist alignments as well).
The latter is the reason both western and eastern fascism are united to hate the libs – it’s a counter to the oppression they support
Till exempel Urpilainen sade att många landet i Europa vet inte att eller inte accepterar att Ryssland har varit i kriget mot Europa redan för många år.
Jag ser att där är aktiviteterna i cyberrymden och i kommunikationen till Rysslands människor Europa kan göra med en defensiv motivation, som är inte eskalerat eftersom det är mindre vad Ryssland gör.
Mentioned this elsewhere; With the upcoming European trip including Hungary, China keeps finding right wing partners, and unusually often from the ultra/alt/anti-EU reactionary sects. Wonder why they don’t collaborate with left
And after the news about what’s going on in Africa, their imperialism seems to have racial/racist/xenophobic subjucative motives as well
EU nations could proactively promote progressive activism in the population of Russia and white hat hacking to disable Russian state cyber & resource infrastructure.
