Good morning. Despite caveat on shot type, wonderfully good news to start the week.

Meanwhile in Europe, still dithering about whether our survival might upset Rusamerica but Not Dead Yet 👇

"Putin went bananas when this seemed likely, threatening terrible retaliation if Europe acted. Note: the louder he threatens, the more scared he is and the fewer options he has."

Regardless of what Rusamerica does now, Ukrainian sanctions are interdicting Russia's genocide-fuel 👍👏👇

"It shows that Ukraine plans to keep up its campaign against the tankers regardless of international pressure. The first attacks were not warnings, they were the start of the campaign."

Good morning - let's begin with (very) good news #SlavaUkraini #fuckRusamerica 👍👏👇

"While the Russian Army lost another few thousands soldiers taking empty fields, you might have missed one of the most important stories of the last week."

Turns out Ms Jones ain't fussy about either. As supporter of Russian imperialism & cheerleader for Russia's genocide war in Ukraine, she's not averse to imperial wars & genocides as long as the right people are getting murdered.

Prob another 🇷🇺 troll factory drudge - better block than engage.

"...and that Russia’s active campaign of putting pressure on Belgium and other countries to block the EU’s proposal effectively allowed Moscow to fend off the proposal it did not like.

Both of these could be worrying signs for the future."

Good analysis from Jakob Krupa 👇

Let's pray myopic Belgium remembers that today 👇

"Regardless of what actual policies emerge, it is clear that Europeans, if they want to maintain their sovereignty, will have to stick together."

"The enemy is not a country, but a set of ideas:

It is not Chinese communism, Russian autocracy, or Islamic extremism but rather European liberal democracy. This is what this radical faction really fears: people who talk about transparency, accountability, civil rights, and the rule of law."

"Sowing discord and shredding consensus is meant to rob western societies of the stability that was once their superpower."
December 17, 2025 at 11:16 AM
"The method isn’t confined to specific geopolitical goals. All divergence of opinion is ripe for radicalisation via the enraging algorithms of social media. Russian troll accounts were posting messages in support of Black Lives Matter and cheering Confederate flags in different digital silos."
December 17, 2025 at 11:15 AM
"The theory originates in Soviet-era tactics, but the old KGB was constrained by the unwieldy analogue logistics of recruiting agents and meddling in politics abroad. The digital age makes it cheaper and scalable."

"Vengeful dictatorship wants a rematch. Putin thinks he can turn the west’s strength into its greatest vulnerability."

Good morning. Let's begin with Behr's astute analysis of Putin's key strategy in Russia's war on democracy 👇

"Anything to inflame the connective social tissue that holds multicultural societies together counts as a successful attack on the democratic immune system "

Peter Thiel & other Rusamerican Christofascists running Vance need to keep the orange corpse walking another 13 months.

22nd Amendment means they can use Vance in WH for up to a decade (2 years as acting president + 2 full terms as president) - but only if he takes office after 20 January 2027.

"Basic cultural forms are weakened under the assault of algorithms designed to monopolize attention: classroom teaching; sharing of food, simple conversation; holiday ritual. Music."

"It has been a week of some awakenings on the European continent. ... Some Europeans, even previously staunch Atlanticists, are openly acknowledging that the USA is now not even to be seen as a neutral but instead to be understood as an enemy of liberal democracy in Europe."
December 14, 2025 at 12:01 PM
OBrien nails real purpose of Rusamerican propaganda about Ukrainian collapse: Putin & his 🇺🇸 quislings are desperate to break Europe. Because the European Union (with 🇬🇧) remains only liberal democratic power still capable of getting in way of 🇺🇸🇷🇺🇨🇳 fascist Axis carving up 🌍 into hemispheric empires.

"It is a terrible war, but the technological and production realities of the battlefield and the way Ukraine’s partners have chosen to support it, give Ukraine no other option."

"Then in just the last week, the Ukrainians executed a military operation that pushed the Russians back about twice the distance as it had taken the Russians to advance in more than four months. It's interesting that this story has not yet appeared in the New York Times.'

"To apologise would be to seek forgiveness, and thus to acknowledge a higher moral authority – whereas his liberating promise to his supporters is that no one has the right to look down on them."
December 13, 2025 at 1:49 PM
The key bit. Plus it would be financial & political insanity to put burden of fighting Russia's war on European taxpayers when we can make 🇷🇺 pay. As Meloni & Belgium PM would discover if the choice were put to Italian & Belgian voters: Russian money or your money?

"Seeing many in the Global South rejoice or even root for the rise of an empire that embodies the worst habits of the past is astounding, to say the least."

"If a nation is so comfortably numb to so many of its own people dying for so little, why would it care about the lives of Africans?"
