Well that and their racism
Just greedy short sighted fools who are willing to abase themselves to scum, or they are sociopathic monsters who don’t care about anything but whatever they want.
Mercenaries fight for money, these kidnappings and enslavements, along with the Russian conscription process in particular, are more along the lines of a slave army, since it’s absolutely not voluntary for many of those people.
Wagner are the mercenaries they use:

Senior Russian soldiers basically rape and murder new conscripts as a training method:
You should see how many American politicians are just as corrupt for less money, I was surprised when I saw Devin Nunes was only making $15K from one of the bribery schemes that was supporting him while he was in Congress. I guess it all comes down to knowing your worth to the scumbags you work for. 🤷♂️
I guess you haven’t seen all of the news reports and government outcry over Russia basically luring these guys to Russia then kidnapping Indian and Nepalese dudes and forcing them to fight, same with North Koreans, a whole bunch of South Americans, and several other Americans.

The guy is literally a wannabe Stalinist Communist from Austin freaking Texas, he’s been there since 2014 fighting and propagandizing alongside the Russians this whole time, he’s apparently been an avowed socialist since he was 16, yet you’re trying to act like the CIA had anything to do with this fucking idiot.
He was arrested over selling pot in the 90’s and started hating America and was too brainwashed, desperate, or mentally inept to realize that Russia was never really a communist country, especially not under Putin, and kept working with the Russians despite all the bad shit they do.
Rest in piss, fucking idiot.
Solter-Hunt thinks that the perturbations caused by the conductive shell could poke holes in Earth’s protective magnetic shield, potentially allowing more harmful cosmic radiation to reach the planet’s surface. An extreme, almost apocalyptic scenario could see the weakened magnetosphere allow solar wind to begin stripping away Earth’s atmosphere as it had done to the atmosphere of Mars billions of years ago. That, however, is certainly not an immediate threat.
Imagine we go extinct because satellite and plasma dust allows our atmosphere to get stripped by solar winds, similar to what it’s like on Mars, that is a wild f’n scenario to consider, life is just so delicate to maintain.
Yeah that’s most of what I was speaking to when I posted this, but Japan can also be very similar in that regard from what I’ve read and heard.
Japan and South Korea need to get to fucking or they need to become more open and attractive to immigration to stave off population shortfalls. There’s shitloads of south and central Americans looking for stable nations to call home, same with Africans, Middle Easterners, and south Asians, these folks are willing to serve in their militaries, contribute to their economies, and they bring fresh blood and ideas to cultures and industries. There’s also a whole lot of other westerners who are super into Asia in general but especially Japan and would move there in a heartbeat for the right incentives.
How about meeting with the Mexican president to plead for action, since he’s either too scared to take on the cartels, or too corrupt.
You’re acting like the Catholic Church is well regarded in England at all, lol, a certain British King put an end to all of that, and the Catholic Church helped wage a proxy war in Ireland for centuries in retaliation, with the poor Irish caught in the middle being used and abused by both sides.
My point is, the BBC absolutely reports on priests/clerics getting in trouble for pedo stuff all of the time, both Catholic and all of the other flavors, including Islam. Sure the BBC is a biased government controlled media entity, but in this regard they do plenty of reporting on religious pedos, now if only they would out some of the government pedos in the British government.
It’s all such a tricky situation, we all know Putin isn’t going to deal in good faith, so you just have to kinda walk this tightrope, and that’s what Biden and NATO are doing, and why Ukraine wasn’t just brought into NATO already.
Trump is more likely to win than we are to see Putin toppled.
While you’re definitely right, that just means we still have a problem until Puty dies or gets dethroned, and once Puty dies it’s going to create quite the anxiety inducing power vacuum.
but it’s afraid of it winning
No, the US leadership is dealing with a bully with nuclear weapons, sure we can take a chance, do some surgical attacks to limit any launches and such, but that would be a big time escalation, and we’re not there yet, and that escalation would mean a lot more people would die, a lot lot more.
The main strategy has been to try to strangle Russia economically and isolate them to wear down the populace and hopefully force either a retreat or a change in leadership, all while providing Ukraine with what they needed to halt Russia’s advances. However, thanks to the MAGA/Putin alliance they have successfully stalled our resupply efforts to Ukraine, thus giving Putin more time to keep pushing and costing Ukraine lives that they can’t waste while fighting a numerically superior opponent.
So ultimately Trump’s lunatics are who aren’t afraid of winning, they don’t want Ukraine to win, because Trump is Putin’s cock holster and they are Trump’s cult who follow his signals for everything and anything. There’s no fear of winning, only betrayal and treasons prolonging the problem.
Not to sound like a tankie (I hate the US and Russia equally, and China only slightly less), but isn’t that what the West has been doing since forever?
Sure but firstly this hits a bit different when Russia, China, SA, and their buddies have an abhorrent record of human rights abuses in the modern era, the US has historically been bad, but no worse than their peers. So to avoid getting into whataboutism sure the US protects their interests, but outside of when someone like Trump and the MAGAs controls, the US generally sides with human rights, religious freedom, and equal rights, things may not always work out how we hoped they would but at least we’re trying to help stabilize the world.
The main point you should understand is that this isn’t a Russia, China, US, SA, Israel, whatever, problem, this is a Far Right vs everyone else problem. The Far Right is nationalism, monarchies, tyranny, fascism, religious fundamentalism, we see leaders like Netanyahu, Putin, Trump, Erdogan, Modi, Xi, Orban, Khomeini, the SA Qatari and UAE rulers, and others all coordinating with the same people, outlawing the same things, they breed corruption, and their interests aren’t legitimate because they operate as kings/mafia bosses, these are the people making minorities unsafe, through demonization and persecution, they threaten freedom of speech mostly because they don’t want to be exposed and be criticized, and they all have a “religion” they want to force on us, religion is in quotations because China and Xi force communism as a religion sure it’s under the guise of atheism but to them Mao was Jesus and the teachings of communism is their Bible.
To go further into it, you can trace the money supporting the worst people in the world back to a few Western billionaires, their Eastern counterparts, and a few specific countries, like Russia, Iran, China, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and Israel. Just look at how China, Qatar, and the Saudis have financially backed Elon Musk, Trump, and many similar people.
Obviously I’m not trying to say leftists and centrists are blameless in all of this, but overtly they are generally not helping actual dictators, they aren’t trying to help the rich get richer and more powerful, and they’re trying to support minorities, workers rights, human rights, and so on.
I’m sure you can say I’m biased, but this is how I see the pieces fitting together, and why to me that it’s so troubling seeing the UN fall under the sway of some of the worst examples of bad actor countries, it’s creeping global fascism and at the moment we are one bad US election from the global tyrants and wannabe tyrants divvying up the world how they want and us little people suffering for it.
Charbonneau said HRW tried to lobby other countries among the current 45 CSW members, which include states with much better records on women’s rights like the Netherlands, Japan, Portugal and Switzerland.
“If they all raised a big enough stink, then it wouldn’t happen,” he said. “But everyone is just quiet. Someone could call a vote, and no one seems to want to do that either, which strikes me as ridiculous.”
There’s definitely something corrupt and fuckey going on here.
Can we start to call out how corrupt the UN has become? China, Russia, Saudi Arabia have started to dominate the UN while doing stuff like this and vetoing things that affect their long term goals, like stuff that benefits human rights, while all having abysmal human rights abuse records.
I don’t see anywhere where I whined about anything, but nice to see that you get triggered over anybody not having a completely delusional anti-US take.
I’m just calling it how I see it, if your bitch ass thinks I’m whining maybe you should bone up on your f’n reading comprehension skills.
Lol, you are pretty naive if you think it’s that at all.
Barbecue is literally named for cooking and eating his enemies, do you actually think any respectable country wants to play nice with that kind of guy? Also the guy is completely out to gain power, that’s it, and if the US was willing to deal with him in any positive way he would be singing their praises, because again, it’s not about revolution, this guy is a gangster, he just wants power and control, and legitimacy from the US would mean he’s going to win.
Also the US has been largely hands off with Haiti for the last twenty years, the US/Haiti relationship is almost as complicated as Israel and Palestine, especially when Haitians make up such a large demographic in the US. Ever since Obama’s administration and the Red Cross scandal US policy towards Haiti has mostly been hands off, which Trump’s administration took drastically further, since Trump’s foreign policy is extremely isolationist, plus all of Trump’s racist and classist bullshit.
The only Americans causing problems down there rn are criminal gun runners who are working with the criminal element of Haiti, namely Barbecue’s people, to take over the country, illegally and absolutely not democratic. Those criminal Americans should be arrested and tried ASAP.
The people running for the lifeboats are all of the Muskies and Elon brain chipped billionaires thinking that Mars is going to be their refuge. (It’s not, broken magnetosphere + toxic PCB soil = dead colony)
