Support for Ukraine’s ?people are more stupid than a thought . 10 years of a “conflict” that a small country like Ukraine holds against Russia? Don’t you think it is strange? This is all a circus people, please open your eyes. There are big economic interest from big capitals and people of power, Putin and Zelenskyy are the operators . NATO is the pretext, EU and America population needs to believe so this shit can keep going. It is the same as the “war against terrorism” in Middle East. I can’t believe people are still believing it. If you study the economic consecuences of the “conflict “, you will understand.

True! There needs to be logic, rhetoric and media training taught in schools, and media orgs should be removed from the control of wealthy individuals.
If only elements of the the West hadn't spent decades undermining their own education systems, and those of countries around them, to create a more pliant workforce. Who could have foreseen problems?!?
The Kremlin is obviously a Mosque. Pooty-poo's BFF and primary assassin (word origin, Muslim) is Kadyrov, a Muslim. St. Petersburg at one time held the highest Jewish metropolitan population in the world. It says it's Christian but Patriarch Kirill likes to wear Rolex and is covered in tattoos.
Russia has had uninterrupted continuous control of the North Pole, the geographic center of Nation State power (Northern Hemisphere), probably since 900, and brags about this fact and the fact they can destroy the whole world with nuclear technology making it the primary terrorist, by definition, in the world.
Russia invented the modern prison industrial complex, the Gulag. Russia invented Nation-State PyOps. Russia had for nearly a century or more, total control of Afghanistan, the first place where Marijjuana was cultivated, same parallel/latitude as Humbolt County California. Afghanistan, also one of the first places were Poppy Fields were cultivated en-masse. Academic Historians will say Russia failed there, I say the opposite.
Now here is something wierd and fun to investiage for internet slueths!
If you are an internet afficionado you've noticed over two decades that Google and nearly all other search engines routed all conspiracy theories to really one place, Godlikeproductions. In this place, this forum, run out of the island Nation of Jersey, which is self governing....you cannot post two words, "Tavistock", the British The Tavistock Institute and "Bolshevik" as in Revoluion. Don't believe me, try it yourself.
Spending a couple hours reading that legendary conspiracy forum you'll notice two things: It loves Trump and Russia. If you go against either of those things there, your logical argument will be minimzed/trivialized, your life threatened, and reputation ridiculted, sometimes with very personal insults. You can just read/lurk and see how many times a life threat is made in one day on that site.
If nothing else, it's a fantastic study in psychology as it's visited daily by people all over the world. Try to see how many other words are banned!
P.S. I was one of the people responsible for the Call of Duty: Know Your History, Commercial

The irony is off the scales
While alt-imperial media promotes the genocide of ukrainians, imperial media promotes the genocide of palestinians.
That's why most people will never see through this endless haze of lies, disinfo, propaganda, etc.
... And when you want to create yet another centralized power which will certainly communicate the right information, you'll get just a third source of the same, wasting thoughts, money, energy and blood on something which is not an improvement, instead of whatever else you could do.
It's funny, when you say you're ancap and explain the ideology in a few sentences, people hate your guts or say it's stupid or that you are a useful idiot.
When you explain the same slowly over the years using current events as illustration, people either agree with you and have nothing to say, or what they say makes sense ; there's a person in my family who is ex-military, nostalgic over USSR, has kinda Marxist views on the world which he uses to support a kinda fascist ideology, and all my libertarian things considered a channel of degeneracy at some point, yet in the last ~5 years we have no disagreements over how specific things work.
This leads me to a simple thought that maybe social media as "a huge forum" is inherently harmful. Even when we discuss the same things with the same people regularly over years, we may not notice that and not have any progress in mutual understanding.
Insularity allows us to have deeper exchange of ideas with the same people naturally, instead of taking your place in the ranks of blues and greens verbally pummeling each other, you are talking as an individual to another person which is an individual.
Good luck!
Over here the reaction has been “They want us to think critically? What are they hiding‽” “They’re teaching kids to think critically? That’s indoctrination!”
Some small part of me dies every time I hear someone allude to the idea that teaching critical thinking is indoctrination.
Like where do you even start with that? A dictionary?
Sweet interrobang bro
OMG. Someone realised how to protect democracy. Now we just need a wonder to make it happen.
Well said. The US should learn from ~~Czechoslovakia’s~~ the Czech Republic’s emphasis on education.
The Czech education system is based on a long tradition beginning in 1774, when compulsory school attendance was instituted. The current literacy rate in the country is above 99%.

That's the same in any other developed nation, just not the one that affects us all globally the most. Fuck's sake
The US was downgraded to a developing nation.
The U.S. currently ranks 21st on the United Nations Development Program’s index, which measures fewer factors than the sustainable development index. Good results in average income per person – $64,765 – and an average 13.7 years of schooling situate the United States squarely in the developed world.
Czechoslovakia? The country that hasn't existed for 30 years?
Average age of a globe/map in a US classroom is old enough where the teacher had to explain why there's only 49 stars
Czech Republic. My bad. Old brain.
To be clear, as of 2016, they changed their name to Czechia. ^^'
Don't feel bad friend, I keep forgetting that it's not a thing anymore as well
As of 2016, their name is preferably Czechia. ^^'
Thanks. I think I need a song for that and Burma/Myanmar. I never forget now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople.
The song helped me remember that one much more than I'd like to admit.
Some of us still think Yugoslavia is on the map somewhere! I can't find it! Where is it?!
Put it in ‘H’!
Hold on... It's not‽
TIL I need to re-up my geography knowledge
The world has changed a lot since I was in school (and our books were old AF then (some of my history books in the early 2000s referred to the civil rights movement as "growing tensions" lol))
