As I said on Twitter, the perversity of ghouls like this feigning outrage about occupying Gaza and depriving Palestinians of self-determination and dignity while both of them are calling for Ukraine to suffer that exact fate "for their own good" proves once again that they're dishonest frauds. /1

Exhibit #1 is Leonid Ragozin, who has degenerated into weird, spittle-flecked tirades and undisguised propaganda that’s indistinguishable from the stuff Solovyov pumps out.
He’s even retweeting grifters like Marta and outright GRU fronts like DD Geopolitics.
“Decolonizing Reich?” Seriously?

Picked this up the other day. There’re a few books in line before it, but I’ll be interested to read a good, cohesive, and systematic treatment of the sources of contemporary Russian nationalism.

Western leftists live in an absolute fantasy world in which the Soviet Union actually was the wholesome meme country they venerate on r/communism.

This is just pathetic. Whatever you think about the genocide in Gaza, the simple fact is that he executed two people in cold blood in a public place, and just shouting "free Palestine" doesn't count as a "get out of jail free card."

JD Vance's latest statement proves that he simply doesn't view Ukrainians as people.
He is a coward hiding behind his toddler to attack his fellow citizens who're exercising their constitutional right to free speech to criticize his decisions, which have already left dozens of Ukrainians dead.

Here we go. Fuck Russia and fuck anyone who says Ukrainians bear any responsibility for this.
There is no purgatory for war criminals or their apologists.
