  • Nato official suggests Ukraine could give up land in exchange for membership

    Jump

  • Interesting how tankies keep saying that the west is forcing Ukraine to keep fighting. But when NATO suggests they give some land to Russia to stop the war, the Ukrainians get offended and want to keep fighting. 🤔

  • Ukrainian prisoners of war say they were tortured at Russian prison

  • Don't feed the tankie.

  • Don't worry, lemmygrad will be here in a second with a bunch of whataboutism about the US.

  • They also competed naked.

    Definitely a more sophisticated time.

  • If you read the actual Hacker News thread, they were getting a 5sec delay with wget, but not curl.

    Don't remember the details, but it could have been a bug in twitter's code (i.e. not malicious). But we'll probably not know the truth because Elon does not reply to media enquiries, and tech journalists love a juicy story.

  • Change your settings.yml to have this

     
        
enabled_plugins:
  - 'Hostname replace'  # see hostname_replace configuration below

    And then define the rules like this:

     
        
hostname_replace:
#   My redirects
  '(.*\.)?reddit\.com$': 'old.reddit.com'
#   My filters
  'slant\.co': false

  • Modi says India's economy will be among the top three in the world within five years

    Jump

  • They have to beat the UK, Japan, and Germany.

    None are economies on the rise (and the UK is doing poorly).

    Wouldn't be surprised if it eventually happens, but beating all 3 in five years might be a stretch.

    It's like having a search engine customised to my needs.

    Automatically filters out SEO junk sites, and redirects links automatically (e.g. reddit.com -> old.reddit.com)

  • McConnell on Ukraine proxy war: "We haven’t lost a single American in this war. Most of the money that we spend, is spent on replenishing weapons, so it’s actually employing people here."[paraphrased]

    Jump

  • And yet, tankies still defend this corrupt capitalist state just because it's not the US.

    Nevermind political persecution, assassinations, repression of LGBT people, invasion of neighbouring countries, etc. As long as it's not the US, it's all good.

  • You seem to be ignoring the fact that after the fall of the USSR, Russia didn't want their assets to be sold or leased to western companies (understandably), so they let corrupt officials take them for pennies of what they were actually worth. Those officials became the oligarchs.

    Russians cannibalised Russia.

  • So, what you're saying is that the countries that sided with the West got a better deal than the ones that became Russian puppets?

  • Eastern European countries that opened to western trade and diplomatic relationships improved significantly.

    Eastern European countries that became Russian puppets didn't.

    Explain that.

  • Because the Black Sea Fleet is station in Sevastopol and Sevastopol is a vital strategic resource? Are we speaking the same language?

    So if the US has a fleet statinoned in another contry's territory, should they just be allowed to take it?

    Non-sequitor?

    What don't you follow?

    Do you also support US-backed countries to take territory as they see fit? Or does that only apply to countries you like?

    Okay so you know that UA was shelling Donbass and killing people for years, and the Rada was very openly hostile to the Russian speaking Ukrainian minority, right?

    A Russian-backed separatist group starts a conflict and Ukraine responds.

    Does Ukraine not have the right to defend their territory?

    Could I get a sticker instead?

    You can get some crayons to munch on.

  • I don't have the time for the classic tankie "reply with a wall of text and deflections", I actually have a real job to attend to. But some main points.

    Do you know that the Russian Black Sea Fleet is based in Sevastopol? Did you know that it’s an incredibly important strategic asset? What do nation states do when an incredibly important strategic asset is threatened? Do they defend it?

    Do you also know that Russia took Sevastopol from Ukraine back in 2014?

    Tell me, do you also support Israel's claims on Palestinian territory?

    Do you know what the Russian Federation’s stated causus belli for the invasion is?

    Yes.

    Do you know what the causis belli for the US's invasion of Iraq was? Are you stupid enough to believe that one as well? Or does believing causus belli only applies to whatever country is not an ally of the US?

    What do you know?

    I know you should get a gold medal on mental gymnastics and double standards.
