A Russian soldier records a large group of African mercenaries who have been recruited to fight in the war against Ukraine.

Maduro's not a good guy, agreed. But neither is Putin, and Trump rolled out the red fucking carpet for him. It's not about dope, it's about oil (which kinda IS dope).
Just when you think Trump has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.

Back in September of this year the Russians launched a missile into Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers building and attempted to assassinate Ukraine's Prime Minister in her office.
Why wasn't Trump "very angry" about this?

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.
