And She even spanked the Ottomans real bad in the Mediterranean. That was still not enough for her. Her long-term plan was to chase the intruders out of the Byzantine Empire and reestablish there the center of Orthodox Christianity. This was her ‘Greek Project’. She had her grandson Constantine educated in Greek, planning a role for him. She also had a fantastic talent picking the right men to do everything properly. She was a full blooded German and did more good for Russia than many other rulers.

Which is why I say, we are beyond just moral decay in the west. Most western people are simply evil. Period.

bemused's avatar

We did have a discussion about that.... How many evil western people have you actually met? The fact that they have a different set of priorities than you do does not make them evil.

Politugal's avatar

Me ? Every day I meet them. People that will trick you, that will lie to you, that will not take any responsibility for their actions, the list goes on. Different set of priorities ? Give me a break. Hurting others, not just physically, to improve their situation, is not a "priority". it's just evil. If you want to discuss what is evil and how you view it differently or you don't find any of this, evil, then I suggest you this video:

Or Russia is scouting out some stuff we do not know about. But Russia does. Or rather the message to Europe is that it does, and what it might be contemplating doing about it.

Not that Ukraine is not desperate enough now to try anything to suck NATO into a hot war over Ukraine. Will it happen? No.

Feral Finster's avatar

Of course a hot war is coming, thanks to Russian impotence and waffling.

Abe's avatar

Dude, what else did you wanted or want Russia to do? just carpet bomb Kiev or Europe? It is the west that needs a war since their society, economy and hegemony is crumbling not the other way around. To the west Russia is a prime candidate to start a war against but also Iran which Israel can trigger. The US is also looking to invade Venezuela for their resources similar to how they looked at Iraq back then.

Feral Finster's avatar

This is wishful thinking, if you look at bond prices.

Moreover, the world is awash in cheap commodities.

Abe's avatar

That still does not take into account the social and moral decay of the west and that they are also losing the overall world's dominance. The east with Russia have started to take steps towards de-dollarization and also have been pushing their new silk road trade route efforts to break away from the western dependence. The war in Ukraine is indication that the west desperately needs Ukraine's and Russia's resources while taking steps to prevent China from growing too much and become a threat to the west's hegemony.

Feral Finster's avatar

If the West needed resources, commodity prices would be much higher. In fact, commodities are relatively cheap.

Nobody cares about the "social and moral decay of the west" and no such decay is reflected in asset prices. This is just wishful thinking again on your part.

If the West wishes to restrict Chinese hegemony, it has numerous choke points by which to exert this.

If I had command of Russian nukes you F-ers would be publicly hanging all the powerful behind this Satanic Flaming demonic Puppet Show, and sawing off their heads so the public can all piss on them.

What would anyone do, kill me? Your tortured my unborn daughter to death, you been tormented and targeted me most my life, my wife slowly died after a head injury like a returned Pet-Seminary thing, never to laugh or smile only grow more hateful, been divorce raped and never saw my son again, ..

.. yea, better all the children dead and in God's Loving Arms - before you Horrors torture them to death, and this Hell.

----

Or a better Idea. Pray to our Triune God to make me Pope-King of the world. No one would need to be nuked and no pedo-torturing Zionist and other Branches of Synagogue of Satan 'Epstein Islands', if a child goes missing all the Abrahamic followers in that region would be asking politely all the powerful families if they want to hang or find the child safe.

Interested in finding out how I would do it, with God's Will?

Did Russia take claim for it and what was the stated reason? At this point enough parts are in Ukraine for them to build Russian Drones and send them. So what is the goal? WHy would Russia pick another country to fight right now?

E H's avatar

On the other hand, Russia denied this, citing the possible total distance traveled by Geran, 700 km. They also asked to see the physical evidence, which is absent as always. Another comedy directed by Green Goblin Studions to persuade Taco to send his woke troops.

Spot on, plus the photos are of a small pile of metal in the middle of nowhere. Staged photo. There were a whole contingent of a about 50 Polish crisis actors that were in Kiev from 2022-2024, making propaganda films for Kiev, paid by the West.

E H's avatar

Probably reconnaissance by the Goa'uld before an invasion.

More seriously, hypothesis 1: the facts are real; the radars of the Polish defense and its neighbors were blind, confirming that all these stories about NATO and US technology are myths. In this case, it wouldn't be right for ancient Roman legions to reappear by going back in time; they would destroy Poland with their catapults and stones. Hypothesis 2: Tusk has emerged from a prolonged sleep and intends to make it known that he is still alive.

Anyway it was her way of encouraging a healthy lifestyle, with revitalising nanna naps during the day. Well done her, leading by example.And she doesn’t weigh 3 tons (yet).

Bread and Circuses's avatar

Seems like the EU deep staters took notice when during covid-psyop they had some meeting of the 'health ministers' and their photo-op looked like 'save the whales' poster with almost all of them being overly fat females.

People made funny memes about Belgian and Finnish 'health ministers' shaking hands, because they were both so fat they could not face each other while handshaking because their bellies were in the way :D :D

Now it seems that newly anointed health ministers are of the slimmer sort. Not any healthier still, it seems.

SG_observer's avatar

Just a sidenote... Dr Pierre Kory did a study a couple months back using the current US hospital stats and found that 50% of hospital deaths are now from falls while IN the hospital. MSM mouthpieces like NYT are still running gaslighting pieces saying that older people need to be more careful as more people are 'stumbling'.

The EU IS the world in falling over.

The WHO is funding a 5year study with Jabba Gates $$ to find the cause of their success so he/they can fund a falling over gender fluid vaccination project in Africa where it is huge problem as currently their falling over rates are the lowest in the world.

E H's avatar

That the WHO is concerned about the health of the population instead of having sexual urges. I have the idea that despite their diplomas, these no longer translate into skills and therefore, as the current uneducated and incompetent Western politicians are content to implement societal policies, which do not require any cerebral capacities, the WHO is into sexual matters and will probably create its own x-rated film studio.

For a revolution you need counter elites to lead it. No revolution started bottom up. We had Elon and a few other tech bros in the states but Trump hasn't really panned out so they parted ways and it's same ole shit - more spending, more wars, more vax, etc. Anyway there are no elites in Europe not on WEF train. They are fucked.

Bash's avatar

Very true. In the old days there were physical limitations that inhibited state power and rule. Entire towns or villages could organize before the capital even knew something was up. Now with digital everything, surveillance, global banking, there is nowhere to hide and so no real movements can germinate. They squash them like bugs, early on when numbers are manageable.

Just wait till AI starts "aiding" law enforcement. A dystopia era of unfreedom awaits

abcdefg's avatar

AI cuts both ways. If people choose to organise there is really no way to stop them. That's why the oligarchs spend so much time and money trying to shore up their tenuous position. Unfortunately it seems avarice and nihilism are the Western zeitgeist.

Marledonna's avatar

if people choose to organise... they won't (yet). The elites have divided the population, have promoted individualism to a great extend, created fear. Difficult to standup, we don't know our neighbors, the people around us. Will they stand up with me? if not, I am such easy target and I also have to pay rent and support the family.

I cant tell if youre being serious. Nepals entire GDP is less than $50bn and is one of the poorest countries in the world, with almost no industry or technology. Nepali migrant workers gladly accept near-slave like conditions when they work abroad because its better than being at home. Yeah sure, when the UK or France get to that level the elites are totally screwed

MCL's avatar

I was questioning this statement "Now with digital everything, surveillance, global banking, there is nowhere to hide and so no real movements can germinate.

Davy Alba's avatar

That may apply to the middle class, but the UK's Working Class have been shat on for 40 years. They no longer have anything to lose and I wouldn't be surprised to see young suicide bombers in some areas before long

John Osman's avatar

Don't think we're culturally attuned to suicide bombing Davy.

I think crime will sky rocket though. If people have no stake in society, they tend to care less about its rules.

To be blunt, we've been voting for parties that believe there is "no such thing as Society" for 45 years, so it's kinda our fault if civil society has atrophied; we voted for it.

I don't like Thatcher and I don't like Trump, but they largely enacted the policies they said they'd enact. So if we voted for them, who's fault is it?

Marledonna's avatar

Population can very easily be manipulated via emotions (fear, uncertainty, doubt). Yes, we voted them into power, but you are projecting. Not every one is gifted in the mental area. Average IQ is somewhere between 90-100. People also have other concerns. Mass immigration has destroyed the foundation of society.

Humans in general want to be good humans and if a politician portrays(!) him or herself to be on the good/right side, people will more inclined to vote that person.

Victor's avatar

I cringe when people blame the victims because they voted for these people into office. The fact is that those candidates for office are chosen not by the people but by the parties and the parties are beholden to the donor class; therefore, the donor class sets the rules of engagement and objectives for the government.

Democracy and republicanism is a sham.

E H's avatar

via emotions (fear, uncertainty, doubt)? Just blah blah. We've made men into women, that's all.

Luis Gómez de Aranda's avatar

Suicide bombers are something very, very un-English. But an English IRA, let's say an ERA, is very probable. Just not now, but something two or three decades away.

Not heard that Glasshopper, however their loyalty was strained a few years back when it was disclosed that Gurkha Army veterans were paid considerably less £££ in Pensions than their British colleagues. I know the well known actress Joanna Lumley campaigned on their behalf and raised the issue's profile considerably. Not sure what happened though.

More importantly, why are supposedly pro-Russian people celebrating this?

It does nothing to help Russia, quite the opposite in fact.

Is it somehow going to make the AASM Hammer bombs stop raining on the front line and into Kursk and Belgorod? No, of course not, that has absolutely nothing to do with who the prime minister is.

And more broadly, if political instability and France going bankrupt are going to have any effect on France's participation in the war, it will be to make them even more desperate and to double down on it. After all, this is a war on Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy, for Russia itself and its immense resources, which are needed to refloat the bankrupt Western economies.

You don't start a war with the largest nuclear power on the planet unless you are truly desperate, let's never forget that.

Givenroom's avatar

Pro-Russian people? It’s the best choice against one’s will of all the bad and worse choices. The whole system is broken, France has to be sacrificed into a greater unit Europe, but knowing France from the inside, Europe has to be and can only be a greater France! Now Lecornu is the new prime minister, and he was a former minister of war. Going to war against who? Russia? Putin? No in the first place against its own people and all enemies from abroad, the not willing, the greater Europe. If a United Europe as a whole isn’t ready for war against Russia, it will collapse and so is France.

Paulo Aguiar's avatar

France swapping prime ministers like a football team changing coaches doesn’t fix the fundamentals: the debt problem, the loss of influence abroad, and the complete erosion of domestic legitimacy.

Lecornu’s promotion looks less like a bold new direction and more like Macron surrounding himself with loyalists in the hope of weathering the storm just a little longer.

Bond markets cutting France down below Italy is no random fluke either. That’s the kind of signal you usually only see when investors sense structural weakness--the sort that can’t be papered over with Brussels slogans or recycled speeches about “European unity.”

And if the rumors about France pivoting from Africa to Ukraine for resources are even halfway true, it’s classic realism at work: a fading power trying to secure lifelines wherever it still can.

But the bigger story is Europe itself. Every capital looks shaky for different reasons, yet all are tethered to the same fragile architecture in Brussels.

Geopolitics doesn’t forgive weakness. If Paris, Berlin, and Rome can’t hold their domestic fronts, then external adventures--whether in Africa or Ukraine--will eventually collapse under their own contradictions.

What we’re witnessing is the slow, predictable unraveling of states.

While I am damn sick of the status quo and the general direction we are heading as well, I am cautious to wish for a complete collapse and rebuilding.

Perhaps it is the only way, but as we are all humans we need to acknowledge we are often short sighted and make decisions that are often poor in the heat of the moment.

Remember that good intentions are the cobblestones on the road to hell, and even you and I can place them if we are not cautious and contemplate the outcomes carefully.

Sick of following a crowd, no matter which crowd. Covid taught me enough about group mentality that I want nothing to do with the masses. I will stand by, speak the truth as I see it and stand up for those that are unfairly persecuted, while staying the hell out of the way and defending my survival and property.

It was either intentional or extreme stupidity to let the energy prices go super high - guaranteed way to force EU businesses to close. Firstly the business has to pay more for electricity/heat etc and then the consumer does not have any excess to spend in whatever the business is offering because they are struggling to pay their electric/heating bill, so it is a double whammy for the entrepreneur.

No. I am not, but I know that all European States are very small compared to the world giants. I also know that weak nations are easy preys for stronger ones. This is one of the few lessons that one can learn from history.

I also know that all European States are now just American satrapies without a modicum of sovereignity.

The USA is showing an unhealthy appetite, North Stream, Greenland, abusive commercial treaties, including the order to soend 5% of GDP for (mainly) American weapons.

Only a strong European State could defend the European peoples from this abusive bullying.

To begin with to avoid being used against US rivals, which are or would be ideal economic partners of European firms. After having spoiled our usefull relation with Russia, now the obvious maneuver is to wreck our trade with China in a senseless quest of permanent hegemony. We don't need an American Empire.

Yes, I would like to be part of a strong European

State.

And yes, I am first and foremost an European. I listen most often German and Italian music of the XVIII, I read French poetry, English novels of the XIX century, German thinkers, I enjoy Italian and Spanish painting of the Renaissance and XVII.

Also the phantastic Dutch and Flemish artists.

Small nationalism is for boors.

By the way, if nothing is done very quickly, all those "proud patriots" will be submerged by people from Africa and the Middle East.

I did not say that I am in favour of the European Commission's ways under von der Leyen.

That supposing that the US finds a decent leader ready to "protect" the subject territories and not the kind of leader that has been sitting in the Oval Office in the last years and now, whose obvious intentions were rather to exploit them.

" the totalitarian Euro-cabal has perfected the ultimate system of laundering useless stooges through the conveyor belt in rinse-repeat fashion to protect the figures at the top, like Macron, who will allow a parade of nameless PMs to fall on their knife to perpetuate his own undemocratic and unpopular rule." Masterful poetry in prose.

Well said Denis and heartily agreed.

Because cutting, acerbic, and true.

I agree and am a huge fan, but the laundry metaphor gets a bit mixed up with the conveyor belt image. 😉

Britain has now jailed a man for calling someone a ‘muppet’ online, …”. This is fake news. The video is from 2022. The guy wasn’t jailed and the custody sergeant refused to authorise his detention.

I'd be doing 30 years in UK with mouth I have lol. Well at least I'd have a warm cot unlike elderly and working class with $600 utility bills

Denis's avatar

The elderly got the most cash and pensions. That's why governments push the vax on them so they can't collect. lol

Simon Robinson's avatar

I think you're correct there Denis. The very elderly were targeted first, especially those in residential care/nursing home settings. There is also evidence (iirc the Danish Study) that suggests the earliest batches of the jab were the deadliest. From what I've read elsewhere, the UK runs into a "Pensions" brick wall by 2030/31. This is when the numbers of those who have reached eligibility begin to surpass the available revenue to meet those commitments. Further, this is worsened by the huge number of those in employment being on minimum wage, therefore paying less tax and National Insurance contributions, and the concomitant issue of the worsening health issues associated with a growing elderly population and the knock on effects on our NHS. Economically, as far as the UK Treasury are concerned the Baby Boomers are the 'enemy within'.

The Grant Rant's avatar

The issue with UK pensions, which includes, state and public sector, that we have already hit the brick wall in terms of not being able to fund it. The public sector deficit, at the last count was in excess of £4 trillion. The state pension is in a similar position but is around the £2 trillion mark. So pension liabilities exceeding the national GDP and getting close to two times the size of it.

You can understand why they are keen to depopulate people over the age of 65, either with Covid 'vaccines' or lack of heating/eating with higher bills.

The amount of cancer and people dying suddenly over the retirement age in this country is ridiculous. Yes I know the average person lives to be 78 (males) and 81 (females), so you'd expect this very cohort to be dying, but these people are getting cancer detected at stages 3 and 4 and succumbing to it within months - without any previous symptoms!

It is chronologically the other way around,

virus was created in the lab, by intent,

reasons, searching for a wonder weapon, profit seeking endeavour, find out/invent viruses and disease, offer vaccine/treatmen and make money, or deadly combination of scientific intelligence and stupidity

exited lab, by accident

pandemia is man produced, in a way that no one is responsible, neither local Chinese lab personnel contractors, nor US as investors,

vaccine was promoted, and pushed aggressively, in order to make money,

vaccine's unwanted effects were glossed over, in order to make money, and keep political power,

virus travels around the globe at the speed of Jules Verne, in 80 days around the world,

each iteration is weaker,

virus is still recognisable, after all these years, still capable of killing, very, very weak...

first iterations of the virus were extremely dangerous, and were capable of killing healthy and young individuals

most happened in China,

when virus came to Europe, it already was deadly only for the old and very old

there is no need for special conspiracy

in my opinion, meiner Meinung nach, it is even worse, current world order,

the rules based order is as deadly in it's profit seeking, militaristic, society control ambitions or even worse than the worst conspiracy

korkyrian's avatar

Victor,

agree, just reminding that newly concocted virus, formerly just a normal routine common cold virus, that usually stops at the level of the nose, throat, with a special added tool, procured from the bat virus, a weapon, enabling it to enter endothelial cells, and cause major disease become deadly

and as evolutionary biology correctly predicted, once turned into the wild, kept changing into more infectious and less dangerous variants, still it remained a serious risk for sick, old, diabetic, overweight, hypertensive for some time

We should know all about immediate effects of the vaccine, more than a billion people have been vaccinated who do have their family doctor, trained to collect data on vaccine side effects ...and to report this data

All of these data is/should be available, most of it exists somewhere in the internet clouds, as real data in health datasets.

Balance of plus /minus effect of the vaccine changed quickly during pandemics...

Handleit. You don't get 30 years for murder here. We don't sentence like you do in the States.

"Life" usually works out at 10-13 years I think.

In a sane country the situation never remotely would have come to the point where “the custody sergeant refused to authorize his detention”

Martin's avatar

A recent protest outside a 4-star hotel housing illegal immigrants saw a man arrested simply for shouting “We love bacon” , he was swiftly taken away by what can only be described as Starmer’s woke Stasi police. This isn’t just “two-tier policing” in the UK, it’s deliberate policy. Just last month, Labour came dangerously close to pushing through legislation that would have imposed harsher sentences on white offenders while granting leniency to non-white offenders. It was only stopped at the very last minute thanks to MP Robert Jenrick. (Meanwhile, Reform was nowhere to be seen.)

Rampantcrest's avatar

"We love bacon" is considered an insult?

Martin's avatar

Unfortunately, it is deemed hate speech and may offend a muslim. A couple of years ago a man was sent to prison because he left bacon outside a mosque, turned out to be a death sentence as he died halfway through his sentence, 35yrs old. In the UK, with 85 Sharia courts we have islamic blasphemy laws. The prisons are ruled my islamic gangs.

Man jailed for leaving a bacon sandwich outside a mosque is found dead in prison halfway through his 12-month sentence. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4075328/Man-jailed-leaving-bacon-sandwiched-outside-mosque-dead-prison-half-way-12-month-sentence.html

Rampantcrest's avatar

So for some reason, this is considered anti-Islamic but not antisemitic?

Islamic law forbids the consumption of pork or things mixed with pork, but nowhere does is it forbid a non-Muslim from expressing their love for it. I suspect this whole thing is mostly created by the collective western imagination, and enforced by the woke police. Now, if you threw bacon at a Muslim, he might consider it as aggressive and an unnecessary provocation, but it's not really blasphemy.

I'm just going to say it then, because I am sure I'm among friends. I know she's an idiot, but she's quite attractive, isn't she? 😍😍

Only if you think Disney’s version of snow white was. Woke = utterly lacking in human warmth in all senses of the term warmth.

Peter Joy's avatar

No. She’s a stick thin, comically dim, 48 year old bottle blonde. But it’s not just that she wears her utter stupidity on her face, plain as day; there’s also a weird hint of rat in her features.

Victor's avatar

Ok, not just snakes, but rats as well. Quite popular, I should think. Not many can lay claim to multi-species attractiveness.

Steghorn21's avatar

Reminds me of Pam "The files are on my desk!" Bondi.

occamsrazorback22's avatar

She was misquoted. She actually said, "the flies are on my desk!"

Nick's avatar

"stick thin"?! You must be American. She's a perfectly healthy weight for her height, normal in the rest of the world. Unfortunately, she's also fairly intelligent, though clearly deranged. If she were dim she wouldn't be so dangerous.

Peter Joy's avatar

I can see no evidence of intelligence in this silly dolly-bird, whatsoever. She looks, and talks, like an unusually dim and empty-headed receptionist.

Victor's avatar

To a snake she might be.

trained to be stupid,

trained to be politically stupid

Typical WEF tick-box bimbo.

Feral Finster's avatar

None of that matters. Her "low-IQ, weird and ignorant" orders are carried out, just the same.

Peter Joy's avatar

Well, quite. She’s an empty vessel, a patsy, a useful idiot, just like the rest of them. But a basic credibility problem is starting to arise. The public are starting to small a rat, or rather a whole nest of rats.

Feral Finster's avatar

Nobody cares, as long as her orders are carried out, as long as the police and army will shoot when ordered (and nothing indicates that the security services are anywhere near the breaking point).

Peter Joy's avatar

Would you take orders - to shoot on your own ethnic kin - from a joke like her? Well, full Colonels and above might, but below that, I doubt it.

Feral Finster's avatar

I am not in the military or police, both of which have been trained to follow orders. If there is one thing that the rulers make damn sure of it, is that the security services are unquestioningly loyal, and that any dissent is dealt with mercilessly.

Nick's avatar

She has a pathological hatred of Russia because Stalin deported close members of her family to Siberia. It's completely irrational, because Stalin (who was Georgian anyway, not Russian) did bad things to Russians too; a lot of Russians suffered the same fate as her relatives. Irrational hatred should disqualify anyone from a position of power, but in the EU it seems to be a qualification instead of a disqualification.
