Quote from Uncrowned Gaurd

I feel like I remember a lot of media condemning the US invasion, even in the US. And a lot of reports seem to suggest that Russia even armed the Taliban to fight against the US and supported them along the way, which is pretty bad as they were always enemies themselves. Wagner even directly engaged US troops in the Middle East and Russia was found to be paying bounties for dead US troops. The only difference really seems to be the much larger western powers are much more publicly vocal and capable about arming Ukraine and the Ukrainian war is much larger in scale.

The west (mostly the US) just has a massive advantage due to owning most of the companies that are international juggernauts and also most of the social media worldwide. The actions both nations take is basically the same as they both just pursue their own agendas without regard for others, granted this seems to just be a thing for every nation powerful enough to defend itself.

You can't compare arming somebody and sending bounty hunters with an actual military invading another country as USA did for many times.

I saw an amazing video yesterday on how people can forget there is a war in Ukraine. He said: "Imagine Ukraine is any country in the middle east or Africa and imagine Russia is USA, then you will not think of it at all" which proves a good point. Nobody gives a F when USA wages war. Not a single media pointed finger at them as they invaded so many countries and murdered so many civilians to extract oil, to overthrow good leaders.

I also recall Trump saying that Bill Clinton administration knew there were no weapons of mass destruction and they invaded those countries. Now put finger on your head and start thinking why is russia under such social media pressure while USA is completely safe even after being exposed over and over. Disgusting country.

How can you put faith in such fake news such as BBC? Only worthy watching show there is with Morgan, other than that, nothing. They tried to frame Andrew Tate by making their narrative and failed miserably. They show images of wounded grandma from Russian bombing in Ukraine while in reality, that picture was used from 2016 where there was gas leaking explosion. It is all fabrication. Nothing will ever change.

Quote from ~ True Legend ~

Well, I see it like this: when we elect a leader, it’s our choice whether or not to trust them, and we use their past track records as guidance.

I understand that view.

Ah, life. You never know what is coming next.

Quote from ~ True Legend ~

I think it’s good to get along with everyone. No justification for racism IMO. Just because you’ve had a bad experience with one person does not mean you can generalise.

No, I am not generalizing anything. And I had no bad experience with other race because in my country there is no other race but white. This is my view on race mixing. When this happens, the concept of race will be gone and forgotten. That doesn't make me a racist. I do classes with Asian students and I am perfectly fine with them. I wouldn't mind having any race person to be my friend.

Quote from ~ True Legend ~

The fake promises happen everywhere including in the UK, intentional or not. Sometimes it’s the economy getting in the way due to unexpected factors out of our control and unpredictable affairs like COVID and the Russia-Ukraine war. But sometimes empty promises are made in manifestos with no real plan.

Well, our views differ in sense of me looking at the world where minority of powerful men (deep state) rule over majority and nothing that happens is by natural way and you looking at it as all is happening by accident, nobody has control over things and their promises could have been real if this or that didn't happened.

Quote from Excommunicado

Nope. It's an outdated idea that should have been abolished a long time ago, especially in a democratic country like ours.

What about democracy? A fake system where corrupted men who desire power lie to people giving fake promises and they vote for them thinking that they have a choice while actually it's all just one big team who profit on nation stupidity. Socrates was against the idea the moment it was mentioned. He died defending his views on it.

Quote from ~ True Legend ~

Like The Raven mentioned, everyone has different views and of course we should be respectful of that

The only caveat to arranged marriages is that, as surprising as it may sound, many families are still biased towards their own culture, and I feel this indirectly factors into discrimination towards other races and cultures in general. Diversity is important.

It’s not good if the family are not open to their kids choosing partners of another ethnicity. This openness could come from eradication of arranged marriages. Love comes from the heart in such cases, and by seeing couples of different cultures merrily married, our opinions change.

Then what is the purpose of having different races if everyone is going to mix with one another? In that case we can erase the mention of the race because there is no such thing when everyone goes with everyone. His mom was white, but father black and somebody asian. He must be mixed and that mix goes to another degree as it continues. Race will become abstract term and I am against it. There is a reason we are different.

Quote from Excommunicado

I think there is nothing wrong with arranged marriage as long as both people are happy with the arrangement. Not everyone, or in every culture, do people freely mix and find their significant other themselves. Besides, arranged marriage has a better success rate than love marriage statistically so that's saying something.

Not everyone will believe in that. Mostly western people. I know for a fact women would rage and claim that women in arranged marriages can't be happy.

I don't know a person who doesn't like sandwiches. But, it should have a mayo and ketchup in it

Quote from Ravenfreak

The media twists everything to fit their agenda. Doesn't matter where you get your news from here in the United States, most of them are completely biased. They say things to get clicks on their articles, it used to be to get views.

It is not about views, but about making their hidden agenda work. I've seen some documentary about COVID and what frauds they did and what came out afterwards to confirm those "conspiracy theories". One part of that documentary discusses how all media track back source to 7 most powerful people who control it all. Documentary is like 2h long and prominent scientists and journalists are part of it but they are labeled as "conspiracy theorists" so 90% of world population will not believe them. In fact, majority doesn't even know they fought to share with world COVID is a mass scale fraud with much more sinister agenda.

Quote from ~ True Legend ~

Even of that were the case, that’s no excuse for the Russian military to act like a spoilt brat and kill civilians!

The issue is how media paint it. You really think Ukranian military is saint? Holy soldiers fighting to protect? Before the war even began, like 5 years before real war, they were killing Russian civilians, torturing them and there was a footage of nailing a man to the cross and then burning him while he is gaged. Also, I saw Ukranian civilians posting in their groups how their own soldiers kill their own people on the streets. Also, a video of Ukranian soldier crying because of Zelensky pushing military in war while sending war dogs behind them to kill soldiers if anyone leave the post.

There are no innocents in war, both sides make crimes. In ww2 when nazis did horrific things to Russia, red army made revange in Berlin when over million women were raped. That's how it works.

This conflict has so many dimmensions and it is not black and white, it never is. It is quite clear this is a proxy war because who can wage war for 3 years with such military giant such as Russia. It is a designed concept to destroy world economy because as long as it's ongoing, ecomony is getting worse and worse. Both Putin and Zelensky are player, pawns of some higher men. I am absolutely sure almost all countries are under grip of top rich people.

All those accusations of who does what and so on are funny. Yes, soldiers are dying, but it is all designed to last long like that. The moment war started economy in my country felt it soon. Over time prices went up by 50% .

Quote from Reddeath26

I definitely wouldn't be as knowledgeable as you about this conflict either, as it isn't a conflict which is taught much, if at all. It is briefly mentioned when we covered humane wars and the responsibility to protect, since it was one of the earlier conflicts to be waged with the language of human rights being used as justification. Some even going so far as to use the Rwandan genocide as part of the narrative, while totally ignoring the Western role in creating it. But the little I have read seems to line up with what you have said. Out of my own interest I read a book by Noam Chomsky which covered the conflict. In general a lot of Western news sources can be incredibly problematic when it comes to covering international politics, as their bias can be quite blaring.

Media is the most powerful weapon in the world. Only 7 people control all world media. They fabricate reality for people but only those who experience it know better than rest of the world.

Think of Trump saying how they knew Iraq has no dangerous weapons and they invaded them anyway. It just proves how news lie what government wants while innocent people are dying there. In the same way when they proclaimed we are commiting genocide (serbia) in bosnia, they faked an explosion with children and sent all over the media saying how we are terrorists. It was insane. World believe too much to media. I trust them nothing.

Nobody can truly understand the situation between Kosovo and Serbia better than I do considering I am from Serbia and know history better than BBC could ever do or any other for that matter. Conflict for Kosovo territory was active for decades but thanks to west and NATO pressure they managed to get that territory on paper.

There was a war for 4 years raging with Albanian terrorists, their military right inside Kosovo in 90' . In 1999 they wanted to push from Albania to Kosovo and help their terrorists to take Kosovo for good but Serbian military managed to block them and within 2 weeks we liberated Kosovo completely. There was no single albanian left in it. When NATO saw we won the war, they decided to bombard Serbia and put sanctions on us until we accept to stop further military intervention. After 3 months of bombardment ,we agreed to stop.

They sent NATO troops there and promised Albanians will no longer come. After documents were signed, in less than a week they came back and started slaughtering Serbs on mass scale so they had to run to Serbia. Nobody did anything since that was the plan. Now those rats claim Kosovo belongs to them while it was given to them by west. Now, slowly they managed to get Kosovo state thanks to political bullshit and kept pushing out serbs and kept provoking us to cause more conflicts.

Albanians are nothing more but dogs of west who beg for protection because they are military unable to defend themselves when making trouble. Worst kind of people. It's like they are born and learned to hate us.

I think we should stay out of it. It's their culture, part of their religion and we are unfamiliar with it. We don't fully understand how it works for them.

Welcome here, hope you enjoy your stay.

Good morning. There was raining all night long and now I still here thunderstorms! But I love it

Good evening if anyone is still alive <_>
