@noelreports I've seen this video in the morning and I think it's kinda manipulative to make any conclusions based on her words. She's just an old woman living in poor conditions who has little to no social interraction so she's happy to retell word-by-word what she heard on TV. Did you really expect fresh and thorough outlook on international matters? If she lived in a different country, she'd probably have three dozens of cats and tell you how the UFO kidnapped one of them a week ago 🤷

Alive and (mildly) kicking… the dead horse 🤣

@gemlog Kissinger on the other hand was a total disappointment spouting that Cold War era nonesense just last year, how the West should promise Puting there'd be no NATO at Russia's border. Wake up, old man, it's 2020s out there, there is no Soviet Union anymore and while Putin might have used that nonesense as a pretext, he doesn't give a flying fuck about NATO, all he wants is to stay in power. What a disgrace!
@publius

@gemlog He's an asshole alrite! But he did have a bright mind, he did what was in US interests even if that involve supporting total assholes all around the world, and he stayed in his right mind till his very death. His words about Russia's actions in Ukraine in 2014 were spot on:

@james@mstdn.starnix.network I think @splitshockvirus has to put the holographic sticker with elephant on it on the server to qualify 🤣

Ну эти британцы и бухарики конечно! 🥴

@neural_meduza Когда обзор от Батикова?

@gemlog
There are a bunch of counterexamples, Afghanistan being the most recent one. USSR and US made a mess that will turn into a major international clusterfuck pretty soon, then US is like: "Oops, I'm outta here!", again betraying their allies and leaving people behind and what's left of USSR now commits to trade agreements with Taliban, while still considering them terrorists — you can't mention Taliban in Russian press without noting they are a terrorist organisation. What?! Yes!

Exactly! People grow up thinking things are black and white, but… they never are 😔

Not at all! Just like regular cops (you know, I LOVE boys in blue 😆) most of the time they do outrageous shit, but sometimes they do solve problems. And these are a couple of examples of US actions that are often badged as pure evil, while… they are not!

@gemlog Sorry for using my other account to reply, I just didn't want to split it into five parts 😄

@vriska "Unfortunately for me my private part is enourmous" 🤣

Most people are curious
Some wanna get dirt on
The Centaur; I'm famous
I walk around with no shirt on
The easiest way would be for you to lie face down
I'm a man
But I'm built like a horse from the waist down

Whoa, you can change tile's size using mouse! 🤯
I've been using Sway for over a year and it's the first time I noticed it! By accident, when I was selecting text close to the edge.
Well, I don't have these 1-pixel borders for nothing 😅

Hey, whom did they define EXIT_SUCCESS in stdlib.h for? 😜

@safiuddinkhan Yeah, no one forced you to install updates or crap from MS you didn't want, everyone was just happy to become part of botnet right the next minute after getting online 🤣

@keithzg
Privatizing profits and socializing losses — the usual 🤣
We have the same here in Russia in every single industry.

@gemlog US is of course evil and opportunistic, betraying their ally like that is a good example, but it doesn't make Maduro the good guy. And he's not bad by association only either.
