🔎 We analyzed thousands of Meta and Google ads paid by V4 (🇨🇿🇭🇺🇵🇱🇸🇰) politicians and proxies that attacked journalists, activists and NGOs.

This is yet another paradigmatic example of evil.

Only a truly sadistic and twisted society could come up with such a heinous method of torture.

I’m convinced her real father was a Soviet soldier…

As feeble a man Scholz was, thank goodness Merkel weren’t Chancellor during the full-scale invasion, otherwise Leopards and other weapons systems - beneficial to Ukraine - wouldn’t have been sent.

Fascism occurs twice: first as the tragedy of a Second World War started by men who fought the First and knowingly chose slaughter, then as the farce of an ignorant draft dodger trying to provoke a war against his own people.

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

Reeks of dictatorship; it has all the hallmarks of one, except for a formal designation.

Governs by decree [ahem “𝘦𝘹𝘦𝘤𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳”]

Operates in a manner that is not subject to any form of accountability, and is effectively shielded from any legal repercussions by the beneficiaries of its largesse.

Russia murdered French photojournalist Antoni Lallican with an FPV drone.

During the attack, Ukrainian photojournalist Heorhii Ivanchenko was with him and sustained serious injuries.

Both journalists were clearly marked with “PRESS,” but that did not stop Russians.
