I picked you out of the replies. You seem reasonable, I want to be very honest with you. I do not hate you. I have merely reached a point where I am just numb, and find it hard to find empathy for your countrymen.

When the war broke out I did not want to celebrate and meme the “turret tossing”. Because I knew that getting burnt alive in a tank is a horrific way to die. But that empathy has just worn down by now.

The speech Putin gave yesterday, in particular concerning nuclear weapons, launched us into the most dangerous moment of our lifetimes. Here is why: 🧵 Putin's rambling about "the U.S used nukes first" is no valid excuse for using them himself. During the Korean war the U.S made the deliberate decision to not use nuclear weapons as a regular weapon of war, despite the U.S army wanting to do so. (1/7)

I'm not making the thread about Nazis in the East German communist state. I did months of research on this for a video and don't want to waste it. But I can share this with you, in 1981 journalist Olaf Kappelt caused a huge scandal by publishing a book listing Nazis in the DDR. It caused a huge scandal at the time because it exposed something. It exposed that the DDR claim that the communists were the vanguard of de-Nazification, was a total and complete lie.

If you fell for the Russian propaganda narrative that Biden and the U.S were aggressively trying to start a war, it's ok. Shit happens. I would like you to do an experiment though. Can you show me a single example of the Biden administration advocating for war? It's a trick question. Because it never happened. Yes. At no point during the last weeks did Biden advocate a war with Russia. The opposite. His administration focused on de-escalation. In retrospect almost too much.
And that is the most fascinating thing about Russian propaganda

Like others, I will also make a thread of people who spent the last weeks spreading Kremlin propaganda, disinformation about Ukraine, Russia regime appologetics, or were just outright beating Putin's drums of war.

One of the biggest mistakes many in media & politics made recently, was assuming that Putin is a rational actor. That is one of the biggest mistakes you can generally make. Leaders of nations are human, and are just as susceptible to completely irrational actions.
Examples: When the Nazis realised they lost the second world war in 1943, they didn't sue for peace, instead, they intensified the holocaust. Even though this hindered their war effort, in their minds and in their horrendous rationale, this was worth pursuing.
