“Of course, you cannot prove anything,” she admitted, while pointing to “clear links” between the ruling party and Russia.

Imagine Mexico would have a party win an election with clear links to the US. They are fucking neighbors.

The issue is of course that Russia HAS been meddling in elections all around the world, investing into bots and agitprop. But the question is then, why would you wade into these muddy waters? Do you know Georgia well enough? Can you even read the relevant history in the Georgian language? And what is the goal?

Help turn Georgia western - and anti-russia, have them try to join NATO and HOPE that Russia doesn't launch another preemptive war?

Does she want more prosperity and western consumerism for Georgia? Is that good for the climate lol?

which is a shame, she says and does pretty leftist stuff sometimes.

She's moving in the right direction, but she still has some western brainworms

I felt like she was going in the right direction but the Western brain strikes again

What pops into my head is a quote from the movie A Man for All Seasons (I've seen it numerous times cause of my Catholic family members and their like for it). There's a quote from it that goes like:

Sir Thomas More: [to Will Roper] Now, listen, Will. Two years ago you were a passionate churchman. Now you're a passionate Lutheran. We must just pray that when your head's finished turning, your face is to the front again.

It feels like every other headline with her is "damn, she's just a lib", "no wait, she might be more than that". Maybe she's just ignorant and learning as she goes, maybe she is a form of controlled opposition. I dunno, but hopefully she gets more clear as time goes on. Given how these things tend to go though, if she does get clear-headed enough, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the moment when western imperialist media stops talking about her and we only ever hear from her anymore from other sources. Western imperialists love the "debate ideas in public" conception of things until those ideas involve coherent communism and anti-imperialism, and then they suddenly remember what deplatforming is and sweep those ideas under the rug as fast and brutally as they can.

She supports the Kiev regime too, so maybe just a dumb lib kid doing dumb lib kid things. Why does anyone give a fuck what she thinks? The western cult of celebrity is brainrot.

Female version of Vaush. 👀

who could've possibly seen that coming

Shocked pikachu

Once again showing the limits of understanding of a liberal worldview informed by western propaganda narratives that cast Russia (and China) as "authoritarian" and these nebulously defined bad anti-liberal actors while the west is cast as unquestionably good at its core despite openly supporting the most obvious and undeniable genocide in decades.

She's been good on Gaza lately but maybe she like so many in the west is doomed to inhabit an ignorant, anarchistic anti-war-ism that leads to the victims gulping down and vomiting back out western propaganda and suspiciously supporting a number of western uses of violence as "necessary".
