    Look far and wide. This is the future of the Earth every where if Authoritarianism takes over. When every where is an autocracy this will be normalized. As a species we must fight back for freedom.

        Just hit anything in the oil supply chain relentlessly until the People’s demands are met tbh.

            Yes, join a protest movement, the ones that survive will transform into resistance fighters in the near future.

              Oh I meant how to disrupt the oil industry effectively. I don’t actually know how the supply chain works fully, nor where it might be weakest.

                If I did I wouldn’t be talking about it in something thats indexable by search engines. If you’re curious about becoming a liberal democracy instead of a fascists oligarchy/dictatorship, you should join a movement.

    This is the US that MAGA wants. They should do the world a favor and just move to Russia. I hear they need more men to feed to the frontline anyway.

      Your comment reminded me about an article some time ago about a maga family emigrating to Russia. I think it was during Biden’s time.

      Not sure what happened to them since, but they were in some kind of trouble back then. It’s possible a conscription order may have been that trouble…

      The people that do this horseshit never want to move to places where it’s already in place, because they are always dangerous gangland nightmares and those people tend to be soft and sort of stupid. If they went there they wouldn’t survive. They need to be in our safe ordered society, and fuck it up into the nightmare, in safety.

        Counterpoint: how much of this is our fault? If people are allowed to vote who don’t even know how many branches of government there are, then how can they make effective decisions about the very thing that they know nothing about?

        We’ve seen this before, with Brexit. Democracy requires effort to maintain.

          Yeah. Every securely built society gets rotten as time goes on, because no one feels anymore the urgency to maintain it. People used to have a fire of how important it was to make things okay, build and maintain all that structure, and that’s what built the mid-20th-century good place that was America (for some people, not that it was “finished” in any sense, but it was pretty freakin’ good all things considered and comparatively.)

          But yeah then everyone got lazy and let things fall apart. And now, look what happened. Weak people make hard times.

    Kozyreva is currently one of an estimated 234 people imprisoned in Russia for their antiwar position, according to a tally by Memorial, a Nobel Prize-winning Russian human rights group

    Only 234? Is there an incredibly effective underground that means the police aren’t catching them? How sad the Russian people have been so completely cowed on this way that they leave it to a 17 (now 19) year old to resist.

      As often happens, the young people haven’t yet gone through the world’s natural selection which leaves alive only the ones who have accepted and internalized the bullshit. They’re still, often, alive on the inside a little bit.
