Financial Times Names Zelensky: Man of the Year

I wish anyone who expresses fawning over Zelensky on the grounds of liberal democracy to live in a liberal democracy of the kind they have in Ukraine. But perhaps these people want us to live in Ukrainian democracy, they just can’t do it yet.

I am not sure the Ukrainians show any particular resilience, what Zelensky has done is use Russia’s initial weak charge in Ukraine to present the latter as a sign of weakness, and to sell the Ukrainian public a vision of peremoha. This is quite frankly criminal and will cost Ukraine dearly.

Zelensky and Totenkopf

A wonderful photo I have found…

Somebody tried to blur the Totenkopf above Zelensky’s head but we can still clearly see what that is. Now, the Totenkopf is not exactly a bad symbol, it was used by Prussian Hussars but later it was adopted by the SS. The same symbol was warn by concentration camp guards that have gassed the Jews. And it begs the question why this symbol is suddenly popular among Ukrainian soldiers, I thought there are no Nazis in Ukraine.

UPD: RT has further information.

Cope, Hope, and Dope

I really did not know what to call this collection but here it is…

Vlad is an acquaintance of my friend in Moscow, he wrote: Remember, the defenders of Mariupol have not surrendered and become POWs. They have executed the order of the commander in chief in context of a humanitarian mission, which is as agreed upon by the parties to the conflict under international mediation. And the Russian idiots can continue deluding themselves that they were taken captive.

The level of delusion is incredible here…

So what is it that Twitter does not want you to see?

Well, let me break the news to you, we live in a globalized world and your women are emancipated. So don’t be surprised that while you are defending the interests of your local and global oligarchs, your women will run off to safety of other men. There ain’t no peasant girl waiting for your return, your girls are like the second or third generation after the contraceptive pill, and the Sexual Revolution. The ease of travel is unprecedented and will only increase with the introduction of new tech.

Isn’t this the best argument against war? Well, you can actually be gay, and rejoice with the boys.

I actually believe that standing armies fighting to defend a nation will soon be a thing of the past, as there will not be many nations worth fighting for and we will go back to pros and soldiers for hire. Drones and robots will play a larger role too.

Zelensky is George Floyd
My understanding of Polish is limited but I assume it says: Do not feed Putin, use public transport…

Many people out there hope to defeat Putin but don’t want to do much for it. Any fight Ukraine has with Russia is a losing game for Ukraine. Not even weapons deliveries will help.
