Fun fact: Bond villain Ernst Blofeld is from Gdynia!

As is half of my family, incidentally. In fact, the names of some of my relatives are written on the wall inside the museum pictured in the article. I lived there for 10 years. Lovely place to live.

> why would it start by attacking random EU countries instead of Ukraine itself?

Because it would force NATO to divert resources away from Ukraine.

Try telling this to the far-left.

What are you talking about?

That would probably need to come from domestic public pressure.

Different countries work differently. What would work for russia would not necessarily work for the USA.

Ukraine’s most powerful ally?

Who are you talking about? Surely not Trump.

If you are… what planet are you living on?

We should forcibly remove russian occupying forces from Ukraine.

That would be enforcing international law, not pushing for war.

Thousands of the first Shahed drones fired by russia at civilians in Ukraine were made in Iran.

Ukraine has not attacked Iran.

So you might be “pretty sure”, but to me it looks like you’re just wrong.

> You either step up and hit back, or look weak and invite further problems.

The latter is exactly what the western world did in 2014, and its why we have this much larger war now.

Indeed, maybe it depends on the country.

In many countries, russia’s psyop tactics do work frighteningly well, and we see this resulting in a renaissance of the far-right, who are explicitly against supporting Ukraine, and explicitly seek the rehabilitation of russia.

Excellent presentation by Święty Mikołaj.
