Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Putin 'starting to understand he may not win' the war in Ukraine
46·1 day agoMaybe he didn’t know that the hardest part of a three-day special military operation are the first few years.

Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Putin 'starting to understand he may not win' the war in Ukraine
49·1 day agoI guess we ordinary Joes (and Jills) can’t understand what’s in the heads of the so-called world leaders like Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and others. Not because they are so bright (I doubt they even reach the average), but because they have been surrounding themselves for decades with yay sayers only, while everyone with even a slightly different opinion has long (been?) gone. They completely lost touch with the world in my opinion.

World News@lemmy.world•Behind the propaganda: why makeup influencers are suddenly talking politicsEnglish
6·15 days agoNah, the biggest problem are those authoritarian states actors that intentionally seek to undermine democratic societies by sowing division, inciting hatred, spreading false news.

20·16 days agoThe much bigger problem imo are the authoritarian states that pay the influencers for the propaganda.

Canada@lemmy.ca•According to Liberals you are not allowed to criticize the system that you live in
22·3 months agoWhat a hilarious kind of projection is this? Your own post history is nothing else than criticizing ‘the system you live in,’ so you’re the best example that you can criticize the system.
Whenever you criticize the Chinese system in China however, it gets immediately deleted and you disappear.
This whole post is gobbledygook.

Global News@lemmy.zip•Spain’s position in the war against Iran is hypocritical and unjustifiedEnglish
27·4 months agoYour comment amounts to nothing than whataboutism.
There is no misinformation here. Iran has a brutal regime that has been repressing its people for decades. The fact that Israel and other states committed similar war crimes doesn’t make Iran any better.

World News@lemmy.world•Spain’s position in the war against Iran is hypocritical and unjustifiedEnglish
27·4 months agoSanchez’s hypocritical stance is obvious. It has nothing to do what others do.
Spain’s PM is a hypocritical politician who has no problem to collaborate with dictatorships like China and Iran, while at the same time not only criticizing his allies in the EU but even undermining European security.

World News@lemmy.world•Spain’s position in the war against Iran is hypocritical and unjustifiedEnglish
18·4 months agoThe next whataboutism?
Sanchez is just trying to distract from corruption scandals involving close political allies, his wife, and his brother, followed by lost regional election in Spain of late, dozens of dead victims in train crashes, … he just fights for his job, he is a fundamentally immoral and hypocritical personality.

123·4 months agoMore manufactured consent.
This is usually a standard response of tankies and other left-wing extremists if they don’t have any arguments, often followed by whataboutism (Iraq, Afghanistan, …).
Sanchez is a hypocritical politician who has no problem to collaborate with (and praises!) dictatorships like China and Iran, while at the same time not only criticizing his allies in the EU but even undermining European security.
I don’t support the US war against Iran, but Sanchez’s staged morality here is unbearable and disqualifies him as a democratic leader.

World News@lemmy.world•China critic and former media tycoon Jimmy Lai is sentenced to 20 years in a Hong Kong security caseEnglish
103·5 months agoThis is de facto a death sentence for the ‘crime’ of telling the truth.

World News@lemmy.world•Ukraine seeks god mode with new control app for drone warEnglish
31·5 months agoThis appears to be a very good technology for Ukraine as far as I understand as a non-military person, but the title is weird in my opinion. But maybe it’s just me.









The contamination exceeds more than 13,000 times the permitted level. There’s nothing good here. It’s not even bad. It’s a human disaster.
Europe (and its like-minded allies) need to re-industrialize and manufacture these things on its own soil not ‘only’ to de-risk its economy but also to produce under social and environmental rules that protect the people and the environment. The Chinese government doesn’t give a sh*t about that.
