News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]


Before this war, there was sense in obfuscating the reasons behind those killings.

Now, when we are gonna nuke each other any day, what's the point?

Any intelligent person understood that it was Russia liquidating those persons anyway.

The message is for an internal audience. If you want to go and sell Russian secrets to the Brits and Americans, be prepared to die.

If you are willing to kill fellow servicemen, and deliver expensive Russian military kit into the hands of Ukrainians - be prepared to die.

This should make the calculus for any would-be traitors fairly straightforward.

When people say that this is how the mafia operates, but not a European state... I want to ask why then do those Americans and Israelis behave the same?

News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]

Yeah, more or less.

I think, if I'm not mistaken, that America also doesn't mind removing certain traitors.

Israel kind of made it their specialty. Makes us Russians jealous.

There are other countries, that practice a similar zero tolerance attitude towards treason.

If you are willing to betray all your colleagues, friends, family, and motherland - just for 30 silver pieces - what do you deserve if not death?

The murders I put under "Putin" are the "traitor" murders. Perhaps, let's call them assassinations instead.

The defector helicopter pilot killed this week in Spain. Litvinenko, Skripal, Prigozhin, etc.

These seem to really have his trademark about them. As a former officer, who takes his oath seriously, these people are less than scum in his eyes. Especially the helicopter pilot, who managed to even kill two of his brothers in arms, because they didn't want any part of his plan.

Some other murders or assassinations, were clearly clumsy favors done for him by the Chechens. The murder of Anna Politkovskaya. The murder of Boris Nemtsov. The murder of Yuri Budanov.

To me, these were obvious instances of Ramzan running wild. He's young, impetuous, and pretty stupid - and also has the character of a Rottweiler. Fed essentially from birth by Putin, he sees in him some kind of father (it doesn't help that Putin's enemies killed Ramzan's father). Putin's enemies, are Ramzan's enemies. Unlike the old man, he feels he's more capable of solving problems in quick and efficient manner.

Who did it then?

For people my age in Russia - it was ok to put the guy in jail.

But to kill him? To cut short, everything that he could have been?

That's perhaps a little bit out of bounds.

He was no saint, and he had many flaws - but they did everything to make him into a martyr.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


Ok.


Alright.

I think, there are some people here that are unstable. I would never count you two guys in that group.

I'm the youngest - so what can I say? What can I teach you, that would not make me look stupid?

All I can say is - you guys are ok :)

If that truly is his message, then it is extremely misguided.

I would hope Putin is a better student of Russian history.

News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]


Maybe he didn't kill him.

Likely - he didn't kill him at all.

But could he have done something to prevent this guy from dying? Like not sending him beyond the arctic circle?

Maybe.

News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]


Maybe better material than most.

He was hard, soft, stubborn, flexible - in all the necessary ways.

Nobody is perfect - Velund.

Also, Velund - I hope you are ready for what will come.

News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]

It is actually quite strong.

The old man made a big mistake killing this guy.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


Ok. Keep telling yourself that.

See you in 250 years.

@Lyzko

Navalny's myth was real.

F*ck Velund and Kostya if they think otherwise. I don't owe them anything.

News / Reactions in Poland to Alexei Navalny's death [128]


He was a God amongst men.

I read the biographies of his comrades. His effect was nothing short of magical.

The kind of charisma, which cannot be taught.

Leadership - in its rawest form.

None of you guys will ever understand what the death of Navalny means.

Useless thread.

What culture?

From this moment please explain things in more detail.


I am stronger than you think :)

So are you. Hope family life is joyful and without problems.

This sounds like an amazing system. What is it called?

I learn from my teachers. Thank you again, for all your kindness during these past years.

Ahahahaha!

Hohohohohoho!

Bruhahahahaha!

In Poland, of course, they ask your opinion.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]

Towards Truth.

The modern West seems to be all about denying the Truth.

Closing your eyes and ears to it, and yelling very loudly.

As Russians, and as Slavs, our main orientation is always towards Truth as the highest Good.

We are bad at playing your Western games of Kabuki theater, but we know what Truth is, and we hold onto it.

Even though I'm an atheist, I would say that despite emerging from the yoke of communism - you have found yourselves a new state of spiritual bankruptcy. Deeper and more alienating that the last form of spiritual bankruptcy.

We may not be perfect, and we make a million mistakes, but at least our compass direction is correct.

You have been corrupted.

You are little shadows of your former selves.

You call me a slave. Ask me if I'm afraid.

Look at you?

Who has freedom, and who has a simulation of freedom?

You Poles are hopelessly compromised through all your work and study adventures in the 90s and 2000s.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


The world's rapidly heading towards a place, where at least 50% of the population will be Putin's agents.

On Twitter, I see Democrats accusing Republicans of being Russian agents.

In the Financial Times comment section, anyone that thinks there's something fishy about Zelenksy - is immediately branded a Russian agent.

In the world of business, Elon Musk has become a Russian agent, because he doesn't want his company's products to start World War 3.

Even in goddamn Ukraine, if you question the wisdom of current military strategy or methods of mobilization, you are an agent of Putin.

Soon, people working outside of the Russian intelligence community will constitute a minority of the planet's population.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


Ahahaha!

First - you can check this for yourself. At least, with the two websites I mentioned.

Second - perhaps there was one period of positive coverage, when Tusk was elected, but it very, very quickly turned into greater disappointment.

What exactly did you think you did for Ukraine, in the last 9 months, to merit positive mentions?

First it was PiS openly standing against Ukrainian exports. Now it is Tusk "secretly" standing against the same.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]

I guess all the smiley faces, are because you know I can't prove it.

Even if I fly to Kiev tomorrow, and schedule an appointment with Minister of Foreign Affairs Dmitry Kuleba, and the head of Ukraine's Security Council Alexei Danilov - I would not be able to provide you this answer.

Simply, you will have to take my word for it - which of course you won't. To Ukraine, all your intermarium/visegrad bullsh*t is a joke. They think they should occupy a different category - at least on the level of Spain or Italy. Their allies are Germany, UK, US.

Poland almost never gets mentioned in Ukraine, except negatively - for probably the last 9 months at least. Even though it's America, which is not delivering on its promises.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


Only an idiot could answer that Poland is the closest country to Ukraine culturally. Even Muslim Azerbaijan, is closer to Ukraine culturally than Poland. Forget about places like Belarus and Russia.

Also, only an idiot could rate Polish culture as the most interesting in Europe - no disrespect. But seriously, there are countries like Italy and France in Europe...

Finally, I said Ukrainians do not see Poles as "strategic allies". This has nothing to do with culture. Then, Brazil would be the closest ally of Portugal.

News / Future of Polish-Ukrainian relations [669]


No, no.

Quietly wishing Poles get invaded by Russia, or that they experience on themselves starvation - is totally not anti-anything.

Accusing somebody of thinking only of themselves, and calling them backstabbers - that also doesn't necessarily mean that you don't like them.

Only when the other side begins to come up with funny words like slave, orc, subhuman, etc can one confidently state that we are dealing with some kinda anti-something.
