The profound inhumanity and sadistic violence of the Trump regime is only outweighed by the incredible bravery, compassion, and basic decency of the everyday people who are risking everything to defy Fascism, and protect their neighbours.

It's a time of monsters, yes, but also Heroes.

We are in a time of frightening darkness but people are still stepping up and doing the right thing.
We must keep kicking at the authoritarian darkness until it bleeds daylight.

Sick. wtf, anyone who has worked for ICE/DHS needs to be prosecuted & purged ( legally) when democracy returns.

Obviously there are some Russians who are both against Putin and support Ukraine.

bluenote1866.bsky.social @bluenote1866.bsky.social · 11h

When the war started I expect a level of support from the Russian diaspora that has never materialized. it’s been horribly eye opening to realize that “no war” & “Putins war” doesn’t mean support sanctions or Russia giving up the occupied territories inc Crimea. The rot is much deeper than Putin.

How could the French allow this grifter—who pretends to be the opposition but spreads Kremlin propaganda—to launch a TV channel? What will she broadcast to her Russian-speaking audience? She will certainly continue to defend 'ordinary Russians', using the same logic as "it wasn't us, it was Hitler."

The requirements were simple, shame the rest of them are allowed to remain. Middle class Russians will never bother to fight against the war if they can live in comfort & safety in Europe while only the poor & “ethnics” die.

bluenote1866.bsky.social @bluenote1866.bsky.social · 16h

Unfortunately about 30,000 were allowed to stay, after passing very simple tests. Would be great if the middle class diaspora actually felt the war directly instead of being able to live in Europe without any concerns other than their own comfort & lifting sanctions.

The reason Putin was massively anti-Israel (despite historic + financial ties), is purely for their own financial benefit. War in the middle-east keeps oil prices high.

The peace deal, and Trump's new China tariffs, sent oil prices tumbling again. WTI is under $59/barrel..

Then they’ll be dead in 2 weeks. No downside. Actually, 30,000 were sadly allowed to stay. The requirements are low enough for almost anyone to pass.

I guess the tourism industry’s in 🇬🇷 and 🇪🇸 are furious now.

The genocide attempt in 🇺🇦 leaves them cold but loosing some of the big spenders from fascist 🇷🇺 is their nightmare 🤡.

For each day I see more signs of ruzzia's pending collapse. It will happen. ruzzia is a dead man walking. First nothing will happen, then it will all happen at once.

Keep your spirits up. Keep on supporting and defending Ukraine.

Americans could not live like this for even two days let alone over 3 years. Ukrainians deserve our support and admiration. And they deserve a dignified future of peace and self determination. Send them the fucking tomahawks already.
