Milchakov, commander of "Rusich" group fighting for Russia in Ukraine:

"I'm a Nazi, I'm a Nazi. I won't elaborate whether I'm a nationalist, a patriot or imperialist. I say directly: I'm a Nazi. I can raise my hand in Nazi salute"

(interview to Provsvirnin, Sputnik and Pogrom)
Milchakov, commander of "Rusich" group:

"When you are going to war, that's sexual desire, it's like wanting to fuck... When you are killing a piglet, you savour his wife becoming a widow, his family grieving , him coming back home in a coffin. You have erection, don't you?"
Milchakov, commander of "Rusich" is an interesting person. He used to be a fan of the football club Zenit under a nickname "Fritz". In 2011 he became famous after uploading a video with himself killing a puppy, cutting of its heads and then eating it (photos are googlable) Image
In 2014 the war in Donbass started. So Milchakov rallied his comrades together and founded a group "Rusich" which departed to fight in Donbass on the Russian side Image
In 2022, Rusich group also actively participated in the Special military operation. Here you can see a Russian propagandist boasting about Milchakov "de-Nazifying" Ukraine Image
In his early days Milchakov was known as "Fritz". Now he uses "Serb" or "Topaz" nicknames. Here you can see Milchakov congratulating everyone with Hitler's birthday (April 20) in his Telegram channel - Говорит ТопаZ Image
Milchakov's views have never been a problem. In 2016 Putin's deputy Vladislav Surkov organised a Council of Commanders of Donbass Volunteers. Milchakov participated of course. Here you see him shaking hands with Russia-appointed governor of Crimea Aksenov Image
When you are hearing about the "de-Nazification" of Ukraine, keep in mind who is de-Nazifying it

Warning: next photo will be graphic ImageImage
Here you see a de-Nazifier Milchakov straight after he cut off a puppy's head but before he ate it Image
Here you can see Milchakov in visible confusion after Ukrainians hijacked his Quadrocopter. He orders an immediate retreat as now Ukrainians may know where Rusich group stay and can shell them

You may have wondered where the initial videos with Milchakov declaring himself a Nazi and describing the erection he has when thinking about the grieving families are taken from. Well, from Yegor Prosvirnin (=Sputnik and Pogrom) YouTube channel of course Image
Sputnik and Pogrom used to be by far the most influential Russian nationalist media. It had tons of high profile fans (@achubays for example) as it promoted the nationalist and imperialist agenda in a manner "sophisticated" enough so that higher classes would like it Image
At this point, I'm gonna stop. I'll just ask readers to remember the keyword "Sputnik and Pogrom", because it gonna be relevant in the context of the next thread. The end Image

On Trump's birthday

Let's have a look at these four guys. Everything about them seems to be different. Religion. Ideology. Political regime. And yet, there is a common denominator uniting all:

Xi - 71 years old
Putin - 72 years old
Trump - 79 years old
Khamenei - 86 years old Image
Irrespectively of their political, ideological, religious and whatever differences, Russia, China, the United States, Iran are all governed by the old. Whatever regime, whatever government they have, it is the septuagenarians and octogenarians who have the final saying in it.
This fact is more consequential than it seems. To explain why, let me introduce the following idea:

Every society is a multiracial society, for every generation is a new race

Although we tend to imagine them as cohesive, all these countries are multigenerational -> multiracial

In 1927, when Trotsky was being expelled from the Boslhevik Party, the atmosphere was very and very heated. One cavalry commander met Stalin at the stairs and threatened to cut off his ears. He even pretended he is unsheathing he sabre to proceed

Stalin shut up and said nothing
Like obviously, everyone around could see Stalin is super angry. But he still said nothing and did nothing

Which brings us to an important point:

Nobody becomes powerful accidentally
If Joseph Stalin seized the absolute control over the Communist Party, and the Soviet Union, the most plausible explanation is that Joseph Stalin is exercising some extremely rare virtues, that almost nobody on the planet Earth is capable of

Highly virtuous man, almost to the impossible level

Growing up in Russia in the 1990s, I used to put America on a pedestal. It was not so much a conscious decision, as the admission of an objective fact of reality. It was the country of future, the country thinking about the future, and marching into the future. Image
And nothing reflected this better than the seething hatred it got from Russia, a country stuck in the past, whose imagination was fully preoccupied with the injuries of yesterday, and the phantasies of terrible revenge, usually in the form of nuclear strike. Image
Which, of course, projected weakness rather than strength

We will make a huuuuuuge bomb, and drop it onto your heads, and turn you into the radioactive dust, and you will die in agony, and we will be laughing and clapping our hands

An old man yelling at clouds Image

Fake jobs are completely normal & totally natural. The reason is: nobody understands what is happening and most certainly does not understand why. Like people, including the upper management have some idea of what is happening in an organisation, and this idea is usually wrong.
As they do not know and cannot know causal relations between the input and output, they just try to increase some sort of input, in a hope for a better output, but they do not really know which input to increase.
Insiders with deep & specific knowledge, on the other hand, may have a more clear & definite idea of what is happening, and even certain, non zero degree of understanding of causal links between the input and output

(what kind of input produces this kind of output)

There is a common argument that due process belongs only to citizens

Citizens deserve it, non citizens don’t

And, therefore, can be dealt with extrajudicially

That is a perfectly logical, internally consistent position

Now let’s think through its implications
IF citizens have the due process, and non-citizens don’t

THEN we have two parallel systems of justice

One slow, cumbersome, subject to open discussion and to appeal (due process)

Another swift, expedient, and subject neither to a discussion nor to an appeal (extrajudicial)
And the second one already encompasses tens of millions of non citizens living in the United States, legal and illegal, residents or not.

Now the question would be:

Which system is more convenient for those in power?

Well, the answer is obvious

I have recently read someone comparing Trump’s tariffs with collectivisation in the USSR. I think it is an interesting comparison. I don’t think it is exactly the same thing of course. But I indeed think that Stalin’s collectivisation offers an interesting metaphor, a perspective to think aboutImage
But let’s make a crash intro first

1. The thing you need to understand about the 1920s USSR is that it was an oligarchic regime. It was not strictly speaking, an autocracy. It was a power of few grandees, of the roughly equal rank.
2. Although Joseph Stalin established himself as the single most influential grandee by 1925, that did not make him a dictator. He was simply the most important guy out there. Otherwise, he was just one of a few. He was not yet the God Emperor he would become later.
