Who you support says a great deal about what you believe in. Every vote counts. We need every single vote to remain a democracy cast as possible.

NATO isn't a democracy, it's a treaty.

Is there a chance that we could have one day between now and November without US political posts? It would be so nice.

I mean, there's also the fact that one side literally tried to overthrow democracy and install a dictatorship. That's something that happened.

But unfortunately on the other hand, most of those democracies, or at least the big ones, support israel, where as some of the dictatorships support palastine, mainly the muslim ones.

on this list only Iran supports Palestine and even they don't really do it militarily. Even their response to an attack on their consulate in Syria was basically a light show since Jordan was already warned. Ireland is the other one supporting Palestine on the list but mostly via UNRWA and moral support. The only country militarily supporting Palestine overall is Yemen. Yemen is even making music videos taunting the other Arab countries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_dQ2hcs1TQ

Where does Israel stand?

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

With Ukraine. They voted for the UN condemnation of the Russian attack (ES-11/4), and have been supplying Ukraine with missile alert defenses. They have not supplied actual missile defenses, since they fear Russia could get their hand on the tech, which would give access to Iran to reverse engineer the system, opening it to Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and whatever other puppets they have in the region.

Iran, of course, only being in its current state b/c the USA overthrew its leader in 1953 because Shell and BP were upset at Iran nationalizing its oil reserves in 1951.

Honestly, it's time to prepare for the very likely scenario that Trump will win. Planning to go vote in November isn't enough anymore. What to do when democracy will be dismantled?

Russia has been expanding themselves ever since the old USSR breakup. the conflict began even before this hot conflict. Putin and his cronies won't be satisfied with just part of Ukraine. Something to remember when people claim to want to negotiate peace that gives Russia parts of Ukraine.

It’s the PRC Customs flag, with a golden key and the Caduceus of Hermes. Not sure why that was chosen. Reference: Wikipedia article Flag_of_China.

NATO is hardly what I'd actually describe as a democracy, given what NATO forces have been used for up to this point. I'd actually call it a cartel, or perhaps a terrorist organization. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9tpWg-N228

I said it then and I'll still say it today. We are worse off under Biden than we would have been under literally any other Democratic president. Unless you're telling me you support a segregationist who, for his entire career, has been a democrat in name only?

If we'd actually given a proper fuck and sent more than 3 people they'd have lost.

According to those few people, nope (and that's a big factor in why they didn't bother with more - they were way tougher to kill than expected, though casualties on our side were so low as to be unrecorded)

Russian rhetoric is surprisingly similiar to that of Israel : thousands years old claims. "It's not a real country". "They aren't ukrainian/palestinian, they're just generic slavs/arabs". And of course, sheer demonic glee at civilian losses and misery

More like bourgeois democracies. This is just a proxy war between western and eastern capitalists. The USA is more than happy to support/install/coup into power dictatorships so long as it serves her interests. The IMF deal sold off most of Ukraine's farmland to western corporations since 2020, when it lifted a 2 decades ban on the land. Whatever outcome of this War, the decoupling of Russia from Europe is beneficial to the US and lets them sell more resources ie natural gas to EU at a premium.

This is a socialist and materialist analysis of the situation - obviously its not nuanced enough as its a comment on a post - but honestly pretty great job ! If anyone wonders how people respond to socialism after the red scares id say look at these comments - people are so blood thirsty against russia they believe this to be anything more than a statement of fact and not an endorsement of either side

No you didn't. You just parroted FSB propaganda, i'm sure that's completely a coincidence. And treated the people of Ukraine as if they have no agency or right or business or capacity to chose their own path and their own alliances. And you're upset that the US won't hand them over to Russia.
