And then these people call themselves "geopolitical analysts"...
Amazing how in some people’s world a country stops being an empire the moment they rename it.

russia “hasn’t been an empire since 1917”?
Cute. Tell that to Georgians, Chechens, Ukrainians, Syrians, Moldovans — anyone who has dealt with moscow’s “non-imperial” foreign policy.
And yet Russia hasnt been an empire since 1917

Possibly it is your tinkling that needs updating
russian people won’t overthrow putin — unless, maybe, the store shelves empty out and their wallets run dry. Then it’s possible. But the imperial mindset in russia won’t disappear. It’s been hammered into people for decades. Stopping putin isn’t enough — otherwise the problem will repeat itself.

And note this! It wasn’t putin personally who transported them to North Korea. It was PEOPLE — those living in russia.
Ukrainian children abducted by Russia are being sent to military camps in North Korea. Legal expert Rashevska told U.S. Senate that a 12-year-old from Donetsk and a 16-year-old from Simferopol were taken to Songdowon camp, 9,000 km from home, exposed to militarized training and propaganda.

Unsubscribed today from NFKRZ — a russian “oppositionist” I’d followed for three years, since I fled to Sakartvelo (Georgia). Another disappointment. Every time I’m reminded: russians almost always show the same — imperialism or total misunderstanding of what war is and who started it.

There it is. If you want to rant about Azov, look at "Rusich" first. That’s where the real neo‑Nazis are.
The russian neo-Nazi unit 'Rusich' has once again exposed the deep rot within the russian armed forces.

Apparently famous russian 'traditional values' include calling for the rape of prisoners of war.

Well spotted!
So, Putin says Russia is ready tpo go to war with Europe!
Is Ukraine not in Europe?
December 3, 2025 at 4:17 PM
Hooray! Finally, some official action! Thank you, Spain! Drones in the EU are NOT normal. (And why do I even have to explain this?)

Wonderful! Finally! This should have been done a long time ago, but better late than never. Thank you so much!
It's decided.

Europe is closing the tap on Russian fossil fuels once and for all.

Energy independence starts now.

I just came across a YouTube concert by t.A.T.u. that took place in Mexico on December 1, 2025. I checked the comments — and it’s all excitement, nostalgia, sugary sentiment: “what an incredible group!”, “thanks for the video!” In Spanish, English, and russian.

And it honestly blew my mind.

It’d be funny if it wasn’t so sad...

Who the fuck is talking! Isn’t it that bald idiot who rigs their elections every time?

Here’s his “peace plan”. khuilo DOES NOT WANT PEACE!
Putin: “When Ukrainians troops withdraw from the territories they hold, then we will cease hostilities; If they don’t leave, we will achieve this by military means “
November 28, 2025 at 4:45 PM
Zelenskyy’s decision to accept Yermak’s resignation shows real leadership. Even in wartime he keeps an almost impossible balance — between defense, internal crises, and public trust. I genuinely admire his strength and clarity.
November 28, 2025 at 4:26 PM
It has become a rule: if putin says he won’t attack, that means it’s time to prepare for an attack.
Putin: “Russia has no intention of attacking Europe and is ready to formally confirm this in a legal format. In recent years, we have repeatedly sought to establish the appropriate legal mechanisms within the framework of pan-European security.”

Knowing Putin’s antiques, consider this a warning.

Nice one, I love it!

Orange is trying to distract from the Epstein files scandal by focusing attention on the pressure on Ukraine. NO TRUMP — LESS PROBLEMS IN UKRAINE (AND THE WORLD)!
Please don’t forget this!

So #ReleaseEpsteinFiles (uncensored!)

For centuries, the russian empire has sabotaged its neighbors, blocking their development, exploiting their resources, killing civilians, abducting children, and carrying out cultural and ethnic cleansings.

Yes, that's exactly it.
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Witkoff doesn’t need a psychiatrist, he needs prison for betraying the national interests of the USA (as well as almost the entire Trump administration). He is clearly playing into the Kremlin’s hands.
Donald Trump has hurled a wrench into one of the most sensitive negotiations currently under way in Europe, potentially derailing efforts to help fund Ukraine to stay in the fight against Russia.  👇

Diplomats and officials react with outrage to new details of the U.S. peace plan, warning it could wreck their efforts to help Ukraine survive the war.

These are the methods of an empire that erases other people’s identities (not just the Ukrainian one). Monstrous. And something definitely needs to be done about it.
On the territories of Donetsk region occupied by Russia,48 Ukrainian children have been placed under forced psychiatric treatment as punishment for "extremism," Mariia Krasnenko, the author of the report How Russia Erases Ukrainian Identity Under the Guise of Combating Extremism, reported.

Not bad, but... I think that Slovakia, like Hungary, should be excluded from the EU. Although this is not so easy to do. Or at least stripped of their voting rights. Simply because these countries contradict the EU's values and are allies of russia.
November 21, 2025 at 7:03 PM
I’m not Ukrainian, but I am damn PROUD of Volodymyr Zelensky, proud to live at the same time as him and see him stand firm. He is a TRUE leader who will go down in history as a hero. I hope Ukraine succeeds in defeating this fucking russian empire.
November 21, 2025 at 5:05 PM
Part of the russian imperial policy of assimilation and destruction of Ukrainian identity. Disgusting.
Today the world marks International Children’s Day

Russia’s aggression has caused mass &severe violations of children’s rights.Over 19 500 Ukrainian children deported or forcibly displaced by Russia,2 245 are considered missing, 668 children have been killed,MFA of Ukraine stated

A new trailer for #ReturntoSilentHill just dropped — based on one of my all-time favorite games, #SilentHill2. Overall… it feels like cheap props and fake graphics — total stagecraft.
