The UK was and is central leading the war in Ukraine against Russia. It’s a military war of course and in military wars the domestic media, politicians and academia have to be suppressed and controlled by propaganda and censorship. It is expected.
So then everyone has to decide which side of the fence do you want to be because truth is the enemy for those responsible creating the problems which lead to the war.
- Agree. The US needs to make MAJOR reforms but with the current Trump administration I fear those "reforms" will make the situation in the US even worse. I fear that these "reforms" will make the US even more authoritarian and therefore less "liberal".
Hello again from the US back yard. Honduras. Central America. Close to Panama, Colombia and Venezuela. And Cuba and Mexico and Nicaragua. What a handful. Back to the End .... ( sounds interesting) the T Revolution aims at 1. Trim down NATO, 2. End monarchies, 3. End the EU System and along with China and Russia take the front row.
Mikhail Gorbachev saved the PEOPLE of the Soviet Union FROM the government of Soviet Union. The failure of the government of the Soviet Union was entirely due to its own internal contradictions and failures to even admit them let alone correct them or attempt to mitigate their worst consequences.
To call him a failure is a monstrous category error, and indicative of a complete lack of historical perspective. The examples of centres of highly concentrated power voluntarily giving up that power are incredibly rare, and always vilified by the fanatics of concentrated power from the left and the right.
Gorbachev made/left Russia butt naked and bent over a chair with a bucket of Vaseline next to it and it is a miracle that US was surprised and did not seize the opportunity.
Hope that was graphic enough.
PS
In all honesty, he was naive as were probably most of the top tier politicians in Russia at the time.
My guess is that Trump will do neither; he will not fix nor destroy the US. His skill set is not sufficient for him to fix everything (especially seeing that there are still plenty of neocons in the government). Some things will improve, for instance diplomacy, which has been missing for years. Some health related issues will be partially improved thanks to RFK Jr.. Some, but not all of the corruption and money laundering will be stopped. I think Trump has realized that the American empire is slowly coming apart and that it is necessary to move towards cooperation instead of just domination.
He can not undo in one presidential term the destruction the American political class has wreaked on America for two centuries.
He's a man, not a superman.
Even if he's not serious about trying and even if he lacks the capacity he remains the only president in living memory to do anything constructive to roll back the intrusions of the State and to openly admit that the status quo is killing America. He is easily the best president the USA has had in over a century and if all the names he gets called were accurate that would only emphasise the point, it wouldn't alter that judgement.
Yes, he's a billionaire New York property developer, i.e. a conman.
Yes, he's a raving egotist, i.e. a politician.
Yes, he's a liar, thief, and murderer, i.e. a president.
Yes, he's brash and loud and regularly boorish, i.e. an American.
I disagree with everything you said there, USA is isolating itself and its desperate attempt to save itself by sacrificing its allies is the antithesis of cooperation.
UK, Germany and USA are the worst if you go against the governments narratives. How the west - once liberty, equality, fraternity and democracy is now just a sick fascist joke.
The left don't have logical reasons for censorship. All they have are artificial excuses, including misinformation and disinformation, which are false concepts. What those terms really describe is how a listener judges information, not what the information contains. Only the listener has the right to judge content, and no one has the right to stop information coming to the listener. The idea behind free speech is that current information can be judged only by using more information, so its flow should never be restricted. Information is not a virus from which people need to be forcibly protected, it's water in which everyone has a responsibility to learn how to swim.
And you make baseless, content-free assertions without any attempt at rational analysis behind them. You prove my point by being a perfect example of the leftist excuse for thinking, no logic, just insinuations and contrived, incidental associations. Oh, I almost forgot, all of it is dripping with supreme arrogance.

Only pain and hatred.
This is what Russian peace looks like, Donald Trump.
"A Russian missile hit an ordinary city. Right down the street. In an area with residential buildings. Preliminary reports indicate that this is a ballistics strike. Currently, 14 people are known to have died, including 6 children," Zelensky reports.

Carnage in Kryvyi Rih.
Batshit Russian bastards hit restaurant called "Magellan" with "Iskander" missile, where there were a lot of people at the moment.
First reports are 12 killed, among them three children. 50 more wounded.
Ballistic "Iskander" was launched from Taganrog around 6:50 PM local time. Monitoring channels documented moment of launch and trail of smoke, photo 6.
Soldiers die in war but civilians as well, like Israel who deliberately targeting them. We want an end to the war but previously EU have been reluctant. Zelensky and Biden could have ended this carnage early. Russia will not have a ceasefire until the terms are met such as re-election, no NATO in Ukraine, lift economic sanctions and likely keep the territory it has won, and definitely Kursk.
That’s we must fight and defeat Russia. The Russians target civilians as much as Israel do. In Ukraine they have bomb shelters for civilians as Hamas had other priorities.
We didn’t offer Hitler any off ramp as well and let them keep occupied territories.
Get a grip, you have been brainwashed by western media. Ukraine cannot win and you are also totally wrong about the comparison between Russia and Israel military strategy. Ukraine should surrender before more people needlessly die
Ukrainian news sources are corrupt and full of lies. After three years, anyone who still believes them without using his brain to do critical analysis is a fool marinated in propaganda.
Right, in contrast to the Biden and EU warmongers and russophobes, Trump is at least keeping a serious grown up diplomatic tone to Russia and. seeking at peace in Ukraine.
But curiously, people in general just talk badly about Trump while they never did so about Biden and Co, who were escalating the war and bringing the world on the brink of a nuclear war with Russia. Maybe because it is politically correct that the small coward ones now dare.

Ugh.
No, the break up of the Soviet union, and what was left of socialism, was a dialectical result of internal - and external contradictions.
Socialism explicitly integrating the ecological dimension is still the only hope for permanent world peace and harmony with climate and nature.

Wont bother with analysis, not worth the effort trying to educated a right wing moron. Kiss Trumps ass, loser
