The video explores a strand to the anglophone far left based in USA but with links to Russia. The Grayzone website's behaviour is highlighted. Especially its campaign against a popular Youtuber, Abigail Thorn, who the Grayzone claim is an MI5 agent. A US grassroots organisation - Centre for Political Innovation - is looked at. It's the official face to a mostly online movement, followers of which often call themselves "Patriotic Socialists". You can see how that name chimes somewhat with National Bolshevism. The anti-Paul McCartney Twitter user above seems to be a follower of this Patriotic Socialists movement. Luminaries of it have travelled to Russia and spoken at conferences alongside Dugin.

LongTimeLurker Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) The Ukrainians now appear to be hitting ammunition depots deep behind enemy lines to an extent they weren't before: Think it's safe to assume it is HIMARS if they could accurately do two important targets in one salvo.

Silvio Tattiescone Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Reminds me of the old Soviet joke - A man visits a newspaper vendor's stall in Moscow every morning and buys the daily newspaper. He pays for it, looks at the front page headlines and throws it away. This goes on every day - he buys the paper, glances at it and throws it away. One day the vendor asks him, "Why do you buy a newspaper every day, look at the front page then throw it away?" "I'm looking for an obituary" replies the man. "But they don't publish obituaries on the front page" said the vendor. "Oh the one I'm looking for they will" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 ...after four months of war. As with HIMARS it kind of begs the question of what took them so long to get around to doing that. Only sensible looking answer I've seen to that is that the Ukrainians first had to prove they had the will to fight and were capable of winning with only their own forces if properly supplied and weren't going to wind up being like the corrupt Afghan government NATO propped up for about 20 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Seems to have been a double missile strike on a shopping mall in Kremenchuk, in Central Ukraine. Two confirmed dead but the numbers expected to rise. Some terrible videos coming out of the aftermath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 If they can take out a couple of targets like this every day for a month even 4 HIMARS probably do make a big difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 The Thick of It scenes from the G7 continue to come thick and fast. Quote Boris Johnson has claimed that Vladimir Putin would not have invaded Ukraine if he was a woman and believes that the war is a “perfect example of toxic masculinity”. In an interview with German media following the G7 summit in Schloss Elmau, the prime minister cited the Russian president’s gender as a contributory factor to the conflict. Johnson told broadcaster ZDF: “If Putin was a woman, which he obviously isn’t, if he were, I really don’t think he would have embarked on a crazy, macho war of invasion and violence in the way that he has. “If you want a perfect example of toxic masculinity, it’s what he is doing in Ukraine.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Editor's note: Badly drawn scarecrow 'Boris Johnson' has to date an uncountable brood of children, often illegitimate, from his string of failed marriages and overlapping affairs. Masculinity hazard level yet to be determined! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what the deal is on extradition. Hopefully it's vague enough to ignore for political refugees once both countries are solidly within NATO and Erdogan has lost his leverage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
