Seems pretty likely. Gonna be fun to see how US carriers deal with hypersonic weapons.

You mean these people, right? The ones Russia sent in?

Nah, I mean these people that the fascists you support have been bombing for 8 years are reported by western media

Also, once you spend a bit of time to learn some history instead of trolling here, then you’ll find out that Ukraine was cobbled together when USSR was formed and that LPR and DPR is predominantly populated by Russians because it was part of Russia previously.

It most certainly is not. If it were you’d have provided a source.

Just because you’re ignorant of something doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

Citation needed. The events of 2005, 2013/2014, 2022-present beg to differ.

Yes, it’s typical for a government that has mass public support to ban all opposition parties, free media, and to cancel elections. 🤡

Oh you got me, I definitely can’t think of ANY other reasons why elections would be challenging in Ukraine right now.

I can’t see why elections would be a problem if there was support for the government and the war. But you keep on making a clown of yourself. It suits you well.

Let’s take a look at a few slides from this lecture that Mearsheimer gave back in 2015 to get a bit of background on the subject. Mearsheimer is certainly not pro Russian in any sense, and a proponent of US global hegemony. First, here’s the demographic breakdown of Ukraine:

https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/9881f4d9-5023-4c4a-8379-779cc4776e1e.png

here’s how the election in 2004 went:

https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/f081fe2a-a9fe-473b-99bc-162d4c405ae4.png

this is the 2010 election:

https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/1471241b-e5ee-4eec-8465-10708deb1726.png

As we can clearly see from the voting patterns in both elections, the country is divided exactly across the current line of conflict. Furthermore, a survey conducted in 2015 further shows that there is a sharp division between people of eastern and western Ukraine on which economic bloc they would rather belong to:

Nah, there’s no erasure of the agency of the people which was expressed by the uprising in DPR and LPR where people rebelled against the regime. Same agency is being currently expressed in Georgia where they’re kicking out western propagandists.

The fact that the west ran a coup in Ukraine is well documented, and it’s very clear that the fascist regime there does not represent the majority o the people. The very fact that Ukraine no longer has elections underscores just how unpopular this regime is.

Go spread your propaganda elsewhere.

yogthos OP , to worldnews in Person with bird flu died in Mexico, WHO says
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Notably, this is not h5n2, so we have two different bird flus circulating. If the stars align, we could get three pandemics going all at the same time!

@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

This whole narrative that Russia wants more land has no basis in reality. In fact, Russia was perfectly fine with a neutral Ukraine, and tensions only started after the western backed coup happened. And even then Russia tried to find a peaceful solution for eight whole years. The reason the war happened was NATO expansion, but don’t take it from me. Here it is from the horse’s mouth. This is the head of NATO saying this openly and plainly:

The opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second class membership. We rejected that.

So he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders. He has got the exact opposite.

yogthos OP , to worldnews in Russia overtakes Japan to become the fourth largest economy in the world in PPP terms
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

PPP GDP is generally considered a better measure of living standards and economic well-being because it accounts for the fact that prices for the same goods and services can vary significantly across countries. A dollar might buy you a lot more in one country than it does in another. For example, if a haircut costs $10 in the US and the equivalent haircut costs 500 rupees in India, nominal GDP might suggest that the US economy is much larger. However, if the PPP exchange rate shows that 500 rupees has the same purchasing power as $5, then the Indian economy is relatively larger in PPP terms.

I honestly don’t know how people use the internet without an ad blocker. Once in a while I end up using somebody’s computer that just has a vanilla browser and its horifying.

Ah yes, the famous referendums Finland and Sweden held to see if the public wanted to join NATO.

Imagine thinking that using Ukraine in a proxy war against Russia is helping. 🤦

yogthos OP , to worldnews in New poll finds Europeans think America will leave them out to dry
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

that’s already happening

yogthos OP , to worldnews in New poll finds Europeans think America will leave them out to dry
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

You can just look at Georgia to see the answer of how countries join NATO. First, the US floods them with NGOs, and then installs a pro western regime. This is done in the open and it’s well documented, yet here you are.

yogthos OP , to worldnews in New poll finds Europeans think America will leave them out to dry
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

because NATO keeps expanding eastwards
