Whenever the topic turns to Ukraine vs Russia, I have noticed some people coming out of woodwork to assert that Russia is corrupted country. Now I will give you that Putin is a dictator as he has been a president for a long ass time and probably ordering his subordinates to kill his political dissidents but is there a lockdown and arrest of citizens? I want to know actually as the propaganda's everywhere that exaggerates a lot of things.

I want to also ask hypothetical question, if countries like Russia, China, Canada and Britain offered people temporary asylum and actually made effort to accommodate them for not understanding their own language, what country normies will choose, I wonder?

And as for me, you probably know what I will choose.

There are a lot of annoying things and so many grievances when browsing the forums but I found one particular instance I have always found annoying but recently, reading it got more frequent. When you read on a topic of discussing elites getting scot-free from punishments, I found people often quoting George Carlin's "It's a big club and you ain't in it." which I found annoying as fuck and ironic to boot. If he was alive, he would have been a DNC bootlicker, and probably just as malicious and rabid as say, Keith Olbermann and dismiss the whole fiasco happening right now.

The worst thing is that, there's a lot of truth in it's a big club quote, but when so many people are too much of chickenshit to say the real elephant in the room and refuse to discuss the topic that are quite controversial but has a lot of circumstantial evidence, it's even more infuriating. In the end, the fact that I never really liked George Carlin and always saw him as a bitter phony hack, I found his quote more annoying to read. Can't even understand the reason why people worship the guy when I never found the guy funny.

Is there pet peeve that you find as irritating as the one I got when browsing reddit or normiesphere?

With the the latest thread about Britain trying to punish people just for staring at women, it got me to wonder. Looking at the current state of Britain, if BBC in George Orwell era believed in free speech and freedom in general. They had George Orwell record his passage in the book that are all about censorship and whatnot, in the end was it just for the show and they just believed all that nonsense about good guys vs bad guys in WW2? I thought they actually believed in a sophisticated morality, not everything is evil, it's grey morality but I can't help but think were they were just as simple-minded as current era journos. Now I look back at history how much the truth has been distorted, makes me believe almost everything was a sham.

The fact that there was no internet, they had to rely on journos to inform people what was happening, they would have just swallowed the false narrative and probably not question it. Even worse, we came to understand more and more, most journos were presstitutes and a very few have integrity. Ever since I saw how the world was run, I found this revelation to be depressing. Even worse, George Orwell said something about this, too.

Seems like the twitter files are absolutely concerning and worrying to journos, fags and democrats, lobbyists. These files are having them shaking in their boots. They are used to getting away scot-free but these files are... I guess incriminating enough, we have a faggot like this insinuate Elon Musk is a pedo as well. We all know Elon Musk is no saint. No truly altruistic individuals become a billionaire but I'd rather take this guy over likes of Larry Fink or Bill Gates. Do you really believe Musk is a pedo and would he have released all the files if he himself was going to be involved mingling with the elites as well?

I'm not really a fan of Musk since I'm aware he was part of WEF as well and he's known to make spiel about environments but I can see he truly wants to fix the twitter and fix the country as a whole. Even he knows this country is going to hell if it just goes the way it is now.

Lately I kept hearing about Andrew Tate and went and search for his video and open up about everything. If you have 2 hours, I find it completely worth it to watch to the end. All he talks is here is why he is called misogynist and why he decided to go back to the religion with another well-known e-celeb, Zuby. If you just want the gist, watching just 30 minutes is enough to understand why MSM has hateboner for him.

On the other hand we have this guy MSM falling over to be his cockstrap and writing fluff piece and trying to bury the recent fuckup under the carpet. For people like me that already are in the know must understand why it is the way it is, still this huge blatant discrepancy is interesting, the way MSM was sucking him off before because this guy advertised himself as being all about "the agenda". The very fact I'm posting this thread here is evident enough. I think people in KIA reddit or kiwifarm will not notice the discrepancy. Sure some of them will get this topic but I feel the majority would just repeat the MSM talking points and attack the messenger

I've been thinking about this but after watching this video, it would be better to get off the anglo-western countries. It's not just politics, status quo and entertainment that are corrupt but sometimes I think western countries need to be completely destroyed and built back again to get back to normal, well-functioning society. As it is as of now, it's impossible to get it back to functioning society, too many bad actors hiding and pretending to contribute for the good.

I'm making this thread in suggesting to make a community for anime and spotlighting the anime that I like. For all the criticism it gets for being Japanese cartoons as childish or sexy, you won't believe how accurate anime gets in predicting how the current society will look like. It has way more intelligent social commentary, you wouldn't really connect the dot at the time you were watching to wait a minute, Isn't it this?

Anime I want to give endless spotlight again and again is Gatchaman Crowds Insight and Shiki. They were both released in post-2010, yet they didn't really get the massive fan following because they do have some problems if you watch them in your typical weekly anime watching routine. If you watch it back to back, I don't think it's going to cause a much problem. So I urge you to give it a go. Their main topic is about danger of mob mentality and it does very good job of demonstrating how harmful it is.

But I want to give more attention to Shiki because I think it serves as a cautionary tale. It's also very relevant in terms of how we are dealing with world full of people unaware of harmfulness of vaccine and built a cult around it. You have group of teenagers and a cynical doctor knowing who the culprit is but cannot convince the villagers before any more harm is done. The intensity keeps growing and the end result gets predictable.

The culprits in question should be familiar. They move in to some secluded village for survival but eventually earns the scorn of the village due to their complacency. This anime probably just wanted to tell the story about the danger of mob mentality but it tells so much more, it's quite mind-boggling.

Have you watched any of them?

It's not a revelation per se but there was one thing I found while I was learning Russian a little bit. I'm sure some of you know who Simo Hayha is. He was just a humble farmer who joined in the Finnish Army to defend his homeland and became a single deadliest sniper in the 20th century. I have always wondered why there's such a little info or movies of celebrating this guy. After finding out the true identity of hollywood, it all made sense. With so many people there having communist views, and all of Simo hayha's casualties were communist foot soldiers, they have no reason to celebrate this guy's life.

Here's the kicker. If you check his youtube documentary, about 99% of comments are positive and how badass he is and the rest 1% is how he is evil for killing people and if you probably check the people who made those comments are all leftists with communist belief. While I was learning Russian alphabets, I was curious of what the Russians thought of him since Simo Hayha killed enemy Russian Soldiers, and surprise surprise, their comments were also very positive of Hayha and admiring the patriotism and his badassery. That only fueled my belief communists and socialists are really hypocrites of the highest order. They will make countless movies about holocaust and how evil nazis are yet have they made any movies how horrible holodomor is? What surprised me was they make zero attempt at appearing impartial even back then yet we didn't notice a damn thing. I guess the mass brainwashing went back decades.

There's another observation I'd make that's sort of related but I find it will quickly attract highly sensitive people that will sperg out, I will have to wait on that.

I had a chance to watch this documentary Out of Shadows a few months ago. Nothing surprised me as to me that was just obvious. But one thing stuck out of my mind at 8 minute mark. This specialist had an interesting thing to say about his patient.

https://odysee.com/@QANON-RESEARCH-CHANNEL:a/out-of-shadows-official-documentary-2020:d

"I was kind of little bit disgusted with his personality. He was all about himself and money. I think the lord had a lot of work to do in terms of humility with him."

This quote has been stuck with me ever since I watched that documentary. I don't think it's not just LA that people are like this. But if I check twitter, I find people that are liberal in general like this. Maybe I'm brushing it with broadest stroke but when I look at e-celebs and their opinions, they remind me of what this specialist says about.

I think I made this thread after looking at AOC at GALA making waves in twitter. She was in an exclusive party where only rich people hang out at and wearing a dress that says Eat the Rich and some people are still defending her. That made a great impression on me and remembered that documentary and that quote.

NOTHING is safe from these people. They will never stop. While it wasn't much better back in the day, I am quickly becoming convinced when you mix Marxism with post modernism, you get the perniciousness of Marxism, and the utter mind-sickly nihilism of post modernism.

So they use marxist tactics to worm themselves into things that work, and use their post modernist minds, philosophy to destroy it.

You could see them as a more weaselly and cowardly Kefka from final fantasy 6.

They want to as he put it "Create a monument to non existence".

Honestly, I don't know if there is any other way to deal with them than to never allow them any power whatsoever, possibly having them full on committed and imprisoned, or to put them out of their own and everyone else's misery.

I don't say that lightly and I don't enjoy saying it but these people do seem pretty miserable and insane. They don't ever seem to enjoy anything and they only seem to wish to spread their misery around and destroy everything functional. Furthermore they seem to be utterly incapable of being reasoned with.. As if they were some sort of demon or something, or a cancer given a body and a sentient mind.

It's a serious problem and I can't think of one good way to deal with it. Everything seems to either not work,be highly passive and reactionary against them when they break something or be brutal, nasty and heavy handed.
And yeah, I find myself often wondering at a peaceful solution to these people. They fundamentally reject knowledge, ideas, responsibility, and most every cornerstone of modern society. Cancerous parasites in a literal sense. They exploit pretty much every positive trait in people: Empathy for the unfortunate, Charity for the poor, Tolerance of people different than you, compassion for those who are less able than you, and protection of those less able to protect themselves.

The end result of the unholy trinity of marxism, feminism, and postmodernism can only be one of two things: the death of society, or the death of virtue.

Although I already gave up on western entertainment, I'm stil amazed these people won't stop until they get their grubby hands on any franchise that looked fondly upon and trample those entertainment beyond recognition. Last year was Doctor Who and Thundercats, and just a month ago, He-man got a bad re-makeover.

I'm just glad I have little to no attachments to any western entertainment. I used to have nostalgic attachment with Baldur's gate and Knights of the old republic but I saw it coming from mile away it's only a matter of time Bioware and Obsidian will change for the worse once the key figures leave the companies. So I think key message in this thread is leave any lingering attachments to your favourite series that have mainstream appeal. Having any kind of expectation for any remakes (and sequels) seem recipe for more disappointment. Just look what happened to Vampire Bloodline.

I think it's fairly obvious by now. Liberals/progressives/democrats devolved into NPC, they have no foresight nor brains to plan out the long term schemes. This is why they make terrible leaders on anything. These threats the blue checkmarks are making if Trump is going to go ahead with the supreme court nomination rings hollow since their woke armies have already been wrecking the cities. What do you think? Is /pol/'s analysis correct?
