So Russia just broke off more of the Crimea without firing a shot. Not a bad outcome really. Who wants to live with fascism aided by our right wing government?
Still, it will be interesting to watch the daily 10 minutes of hate propaganda from the neoliberals in power. All the bogus ‘Russia’s going to invade on Friday between the hours of 10-2pm’ was replaced with ‘our steely gaze and iron resolve, backed up by threats of sanctions, stayed the Ivan’s hand’ now looks like so much more idiocy and incompetence by our right wing political classes. My guess will be promotions all around as the usual result. There’s little downside to effing up in the PMC political party these days.

We did sell a ton of weapons to neo-nazis so there’s that. Nordstream is kaput for now, so there’s another (sorry bout yer luck Europe!). Not a total loss for some, but the fascist seem to have suffered a set back.
