This is what I've been telling people for a while lmao, democracy in those regions is a complete farce and westerners are idiots for wanting to force it down the throats of countries that clearly don't handle being democracies well - such as the middle east or former Soviet Union. Westerners will stop at nothing though to enforce their neocolonial global hegemony.

But no such proposal is supported by the average Ukrainian. Among the Russian minority, perhaps, but ethnic minorities have no right to steal part of a country from its longstanding ethnic majority without their consent. Especially when said minority already has a country elsewhere.
It's been supported by a good chunk of Eastern Ukrainians and Russian Ukrainians lmao. A good half of the population voted for pro-Russian politics until the Euromaidan (a western imposed coup de'tat).
Suddenly you abandon your principles of popular sovereignty because "um ethnic groups can't steal part of a country without their consent." Damn in that case I guess Ukrainians have no right to steal the borderlands from the greater Rus! Thanks for proving my point and shattering down your whole argument.
The idea that people of all races and skin colors should be allowed and empowered to choose the governments over them is racist?
The idea of enforcing liberal democracy on the whole world is racist neocolonialism. Yes. Some cultures don't like neoliberal democracy and prefer/fit in with authoritarianism. You are espousing Anglo-Germanic cultural chauvinism and snobbish supremacy by demanding the whole world adopt Anglo-Germanic inspired forms of government.
Why are racist neocolonialists like you so adamant to defend western Anglo-Germanic global hegemony over the world? You guys are racist because you don't want anybody but people of northwestern European descent ruling the world, and absolutely hate and depise anybody else but northwestern Europeans calling the shots in a unipolar world order. Can't wait for Russia and China to begin the process of 2nd wave decolonization!
Ukraine's internalized colonialism and bigotry is evident with racist neonazi groups like Azov division.

Sure. But isn't that their own choice? Shouldn't they be free to choose Western-ness if they want?
Then you should support partioning Ukraine instead of the Ukrainian government since there's a lot of pro-Russian Ukrainians.
How is it spiting Russia simply to be Western?
Because they're denouncing their east Slavic Orthodox culture in favor of western neocolonial hegemony
What kind of "friend" says you're not allowed to leave them or else they'll murder you?
What kind of friend overthrows a western neocolonial globohomo puppet government for you to bring you back home? Idk man, sounds like a terrible friend.
Liberation from what? The independence that Ukrainians wanted to keep?
Liberation from western neocolonialism.
In 1991, more than 90% of Ukrainians in a high-turnout election voted for independence. A majority in both Donetsk and Luhansk voted for the same. Even in Crimea, so did a majority of those who turned out to vote. The entire country voted for independence.
People were getting tired of the Soviet Union, times and attitudes change. And that referendum was for independence, not a denouncement and cutting ties with Russia. Ukraine is fine being independent if they stick with Russia instead of sucking up to the west.
Given that Russia was the former colonizer of Ukraine, don't you mean re-colonization? In what possible world is forcibly denying Ukraine's national right to self-determination an act of decolonization?
Russia wasn't a colonial power.
Except that no foreign power was occupying Ukraine against its will. Ukraine has voluntarily associated itself with the West. Mere proximity to Ukraine did not entitle Russia to annex it, hence the Goa analogy fails.
Even if Ukraine did voluntary associate itself with the west, that's just evidence of internalized colonialism and being coons.
And why is popular sovereignty important? Attitudes change with time, and people can be misled. Your staunch support of democracy and demand to enforce it on the whole world just shows your snobbish northwestern Anglo-Germanic supremacist attitudes. And it's hypocritical because many Ukrainians are pro-Russian.
Most Germans voted for Hitler. Most southern Americans voted for segregation. Many tribes in Africa and Britain voluntarily gave up their sovereignty to Britain. Russia is engaging on decolonization and denazification of Ukraine after liberating them from racism and western neocolonialism.

As for income inequality, let's remember that Putin started the year as the richest man in the world in spite of an official salary of $300,000 (worth about half that now)
Putin's the leader of an enormous country why wouldn't he be rich?
Anyways I'm not saying the Russian government and its oligarchs are ideal or even good, I'm just criticizing the unipolar western neoliberal system.
Russian oligarchs were propped up by a pro-western neoliberal regime under Yeltsin, it was Putin who began cracking down on them in the early 2000s. Those oligarchs rely on connections to the neoliberal capitalist system to maintain their wealth and power. With Russia's invasion and western moves to isolate the Russian economy, they're targeting Russian oligarchs and their assets in the west. Meanwhile in Russia, the government is looking at nationalization to keep the economy in the government's hands rather than some capitalist oligarchs.
I'm not saying Russia's government or Putin are great leaders or even ideal, but Russia is still fighting a neoliberal western dominated unipolar world order. Add increasing cooperation with China and Eurasia can finally make the starting moves to flourish under its own economic bloc that isn't intertwined and dependent on the neoliberal system.

It's called Liberty and once people know it, they will gladly kill their tyrants, they will die to preserve their freedoms.
Liberty to homo rights, gay pride parades, cultural erasure, massive income inequality, commercialization, consumerism, decadence, onlyfans, estrogen in paper receipts, soy and xenoestrogens in the food supply, transgenderism (aka self-harming mutilation), etc.
Ukrainians are so brave to fight for their descendants to become money-worshipping obese transgender homos, collecting funko pops, soylent bottles, and marvel movies, that hate their culture in a world order monopolized by western globohomo.

It's sad to think that some people are so xenophobic and bigoted against white people that they'll reject democracy and human rights if majority-white countries are the ones pushing for it.
This just shows your snobbish Germanic-superiority and racism. The idea of "whiteness, democracy, and human rights" all stem from Enlightenment Germanic Protestant societies. Maybe some countries, including those under the umbrella of "white" such as Russia, don't believe those values are part of their culture.

Ukrainians are a subtribe of the Rus. Ukrainians that end up being rabidly anti-Russia to their east Slavic brothers tend to embrace westernization, especially since a lot of it was brought about by Poland-Lithuania. They look to western ideas, values, religions, modes of government, etc, simply to spite Russia. They're embracing western neocolonization and hegemony over the world instead of friendship with their east Slavic neighbors. Russia is hardly partaking in colonialism, it's more like liberation and decolonization. Similar to how India launched a military invasion of Goa to free them from Portuguese colonialism.

I think that demonstrates an inherent flaw with the "marketplace of ideas" and liberal democracy. Why have such a concept when a calm, balanced, and logical approach to preserving society will sound less appealing to the masses than some delusions of grandeur?
Should society's decisions really be based on the masses of people that can't pinpoint a country we're at war with on a map?

Russia and China are challenging the unipolar world order of Atlanticist powers such as the United States and northwestern Europe. Through this unipolar world order, western elites possess massive amounts of power over global society. Institutions like the World Bank and IMF enact neoliberal economic policies that continuously screw over 2nd and 3rd world countries. People who descend from 2nd and 3rd world countries are looked down upon by snobbish first worlders.
Russia is reclaiming Ukraine from the Atlanticist sphere of influence and reuniting Ukraine with its fellow east Slavs.
Westerner NPCs continue to seethe, why? They don't want anybody but Germanic Northwestern European neoliberals to hold power over the world. They are both neocolonialist and racist. They demand the entire world bow down to their neoliberal whims and social norms of Germanic countries. They despise anything but liberal western culture. They have snobbish neocolonialist attitudes.
Pro-Russian sentiments are essentially an Indigenous Peoples' Movement against Anglo-Germanic neocolonial global supremacy.

Lol nice trolling. You got the lemmings and tv people mad. Nonetheless, I really don't want Russia invading, I'm mostly concerned of white blood being spilt and Putin isn't perfect either. He is in bed with klaus scwab and has jailed monarchists and far-right groups. Is he better than the CIA occupied Ukraine? Yes. Is he in favor of our causes? No.
The far-right groups you mention are cringe anyways who cares. Those are just fringe-right weirdos nobody likes that are the Russian equivalent of American wignat groups.
Also Schwab stopped supporting Putin amidst the invasion. I don't think Putin's a great leader, but Russia's clearly in the right to not want global western hegemony and NATO encroachment.

In 2018, Russia had 353 abortions per 1,000 live births, higher than any country in Europe that wasn't formerly part of the Warsaw Pact. Less than 10% of the population attends church weekly, meaning its lavish houses of worship are next to empty on Sunday mornings.
That number's been decreasing steadily, the high rates are mostly a result of the 90s' chaos. The Russian Orthodox Church has actively been working to fight against abortion. Anyways the current state of Russia has nothing to do with the Orthodox Church's spirituality and teachings.
The Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople (quite literally what the Orthodox mean by "Second Rome") has condemned Russian aggression and recognized the independence of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The Romanian, Georgian, and Greek Orthodox Churches have also denounced Putin's invasion, suggesting about half of Orthodoxy outside of Russia does so.
The Ukrainian Orthodox Church is schismatic lmao, they have no canonical rights to their claim. Ukraine is under the jurisdiction of Moscow, so if there were to be an autocephalous Church then they'd need to be granted autocephaly by Moscow. Constantinople violated the canons. That and the schismatic Ukrainian Church literally has racist ultranationalist neonazis physically attacking parishes and members the canonical Church, and stealing their Churches. Are you even Orthodox?
The ROC puts icons inside its churches to Iosef Stalin, the man who almost singlehandedly gutted the Orthodox Church in Russia and across Eastern Europe. The brand-new Cathedral of the Armed Forces very nearly did as well. Their common choice of aesthetic is a mockery, if not a blasphemy.
There is not one instance of them putting icons of Stalin.
The Cathedral *of the armed forces* planned to put a mosaic of the Red Army's victory against Nazi Germany because it's a *military* Cathedral, and because Stalin legalized the Orthodox Church to gain its support to drive off Nazi invaders on Russia. That mosaic included Stalin as a picture of a historical scene, not to glorify him. Never was there going to be a halo around his mosaic - which is what depicts a saint. Nor do any of the Red Army soldiers/officers have halos around them. That was cancelled anyways by Church authorities.

It's particularly bad for obese people, but Fauci doesn't give a fuck about slowing the spread of obesity because there is no profit in that.

Overpopulation is a myth. There's an issue with inefficient resource allocation and exploitation, not the amount of people in the world.
Overpopulation is promoted by rich elites who want to hog up all resources to preserve their glamorous decadent lifestyle of 5 enormous mansions, 30 yahtchs, and 10 private jets, while maximizing their business's profits (sustainability isn't profitable in global neoliberal capitalism).

It infuriates me to no end that we're still not back to normal when there's ample fucking evidence that COVID isn't that bad, such as this study.
Once a disease breaks out, it's impossible to halt. Quarantines and lockdowns will only get you so far. Chickenpox and smallpox were considerably worse than COVID, yet there wasn't the same insanity of masks, online school, and social distancing that there is now. Even historical pandemic measures recognized that people shouldn't be treated like cattle in a cage and denied of social interaction.
COVID is literally just Flu+
Young people need no more precautions than washing your hands more often. That's literally it.

"Hate speech" is just a buzzword to silence things that the current political climate deems "edgy, politically incorrect, or offensive."
Really, what is hate speech to you? Why do you think one side engages in it more than the other?

The Taliban isn't mandating the burqa, this headline is bullshit
Assuming it isn't a complete fabrication made by a journo, in reality there are local rogue militias that are claiming to be the Taliban but aren't really. That's where all of these cases come from, not the actual Taliban. Opportunists are to be expected from a war torn area.

1. They'll probably just have a jizya for non-believers
2. Oh no women can't be disgusting whores and make onlyfans under the taliban. The sexist Taliban will probably not let them kill their unborn children either. I bet they'll even make it so that a man can support his family on one income instead of pulling women away from raising their children for the workforce. Ugh so oppressive to wahman's rights >:(((((

More than just funding, I am saying that the majority of Taliban were not born in Afghanistan, they were born in Pakistan.
1. Not true, prove it
2. Even if they were, the majority of Taliban are Pashtuns. Pakistani and Afghani Pashtuns are more or less the same peoples.
"Afghanistan-Pakistan relations have been tense for more than four decades. Most Afghans living in big cities have a negative view of Pakistan because they remember that Islamabad supported the Taliban and the Mujahideen in the 1990s,"
Yeah this is just a journo mindlessly saying "um Afghanis don't like the Taliban haha." For one it's impossible to get statistics in a war-torn area. That being said, watch any documentary on the Afghani conflict and it's pretty obvious the locals seem much more sympathetic to the Taliban than the ANG.
I mean why else was the ANG in such an enormous struggle to get rid of the Taliban? Why does the Taliban seem to have great relations with the people in their occupied areas, while the Afghanis formerly under ANG rule cry about corruption and abuse?

I never denied that the Taliban aren't being funded by foreign powers. That doesn't inherently make it a foreign oppressor. We're the American revolutionaries "foreign oppressors" for being backed by France, the Netherlands, and Spain?
The Taliban is *a great deal* more favorable to the Afghani people than the ANG was. There's a reason why Afghanis instantly decry American intervention but say nothing about Pakistan, and why the ANG had to rely on the world's superpower for life support.
