Central Ukraine suppressing russian language\culture in Donbas, Luhansk and Crimea were their talking points right before 2014.

Nah, that's one good orange spirit. She felt POWERFUL, like she really had ALL HER RIGHTS, and she DIDN'T think about ABORTIONS at all. I talked it out with some GREAT LEADERS, and that's what a woman SHOULD DO.

then either their Piano Nights or Black Earth. Slow darkjazz that sets up an atmosphere and doesn't distract that much.

Fleshlight Don.

Him being afraid of debating Harris again makes me believe he's a little less braindead than I could assume, lmao.

Does they encourage people to buy upvotes in friendly subreddits? Either they are not friendly or them buying internet points is even more useless than I thought.

Is wishing it'd be against a coffin against the rules of that community?

Something-something a thousand monkeys with typewriters demented gramps spouting random bullshit. Given enough time, they are sure to produce something that sticks.

Glad to hear your points fleshed out.

As I read this thread and your response to my jaggernaut quote, I feel like it'd be okay to reduce my view of Google from an american pov (and I'm russian lol) to some artifact from a folklore tale, like a sure-striking sword. The carrier of such pointy thing concluded it pierces the heath of their enemies by itself and never fails, but is oblivious to other properties it has. They would have a great time weilding it, occasionally getting a king's contract and their daughter's hand, but them putting their whole life on the line depending on a behavior of such an unpredictable magic thing. That is a very insecure position to be in. And anti-trust legistations are kinda nice, but touting them as an adequate and a timely measure sounds kinda weak in a world where corpos like Big Mouse can shape and abuse patent law to it's profits, and Google isn't better.

That is an interesting argument to have, and I choose to disagree with you. Besides what's told in the article, my own problem with the likes of Google is that this amount of corporate power makes them, like oil barons, an international governing body that affects policies worldwide. They can unintentionally, like Facebook in Myanmar, enable genocide by slacking on getting bhirma-languaged moderators and just not giving a damn about what they give platfrom for. Like a butterfly effect, something decided in Silicon valley may cause a tornado on the opposite side of Earth. And supporting Google we delegate such power to their board of directors we can't even choose, let alone impeach. They are akin to kings blessed by a god of capital and have more reach than modern hereditary monarchs in spite of that being not as obvious and direct. The Algorythm deciding what to show you, may it be ads or an answer to your question, controls you and your worldview on the level a step higher than the resources they reference. Like, we all know there's this crazy Conservapedia, and now imagine, that it's the first result in every google search, everything you want to ask the internet about is explained by insane rightwingers. Google chooses not to do that, to rank it down, thanks, but they can change that at any point and we wouldn't even know, because they are completely closed to external review. That's nice they are kinda aligned with what the US+Europe do for now, but as we see with Twitter getting musk-off with it being a propaganda vehicle, we somehow forget that it's a nearly irrelevantly small spot compared to a jaggernaut like Google that is The Internet, the start page for billions of people, and it navigates the decision making of almost all of our world now, while, uhm, building their business around reselling that influence to third parties for money. Right now, they plan to ban adblocking in Chrome and their sole real competitor Mozilla is majorly paid by them, they also has a saying on how we use our phones\tablets due to android popularity, so they are a judge and the executioner of how we use the common internet we live our digital lives in. And they succeed at flying under radar for how long they exist.

That's actually frightening to think how much power they hold, and that the things in the article is them holding themselves back to appear neutral, reasonable and uninvolved. At the same time, I suppose, even the coming US elections won't shape the world just as much as the politics of Google's board of directors. And, if they've wished so, they could pick a winner just by what ads and resources they show to most of the voters.

The power of an american corporation can't be good for americans (and the world) if it isn't even controlled by them. It's just their interests don't explicitly cross those of the US. But you can guess that if there's something really uncomfortable to Google, they have enough connections and bribed politicians to undo it in it's uterus.

Or they just wanted it being called Twitter in legal papers targeted at Musk to enrage him once more.

I'm seeing him blasting 'Out of Space' by Prodigy on his dj deck.

For them he was like a black nazi. He just stumbled upon a group of those who weren't in on his bit and didn't know he is a privileged special guest. That's been said, he had an incredibly long run in that role in a military context, I could've lost a lot of bets with him if I cared about the guy.

He won't see today's kids going to school, but he'd like their fathers sinking in debts for them and signing contracts now.

SMMs for officials, volunteers and military would keep posting, right. It's inside communications that are a concern. And as some ukrainians wrote, in some places it was an obvious rule from the very start.

Another failed coup\fraud attempts not having enough momentum. Mild persecutions for his chuds after a long time. Him dying from something preventable, probably respiratory or blood-related, while his trial is still going on. Republicans coming slightly back to the center because they can't find another idol and want to appeal to a wider voting base, that's until they find a younger Shapiro or Tate-type. Harris and Walz're gonna do some better policies on equality and ecology no one would remember in four years. Ukraine has a bit more funding, Israel a bit less. Democrats won't try to find another candidate because Kamala just worked right, that'd come unfortunate because she and her running mate are elderly know and lost a lot of their appeal.

As a guy who likes movies by Baskova unironically, I want to post that quote from the most famous russian trash movie incl. necrophilia and coprophagia called The Green Elephant. It sounds just like him. It's said by a prison guard who lost his marbles after observing a total moral degradation of arrested soviet soldiers in caprivity circa 1980s:

I am on a horse. You are on a white horse, and I am on a white horse. And then we come to the ball. And then a salute... in our honor. A salute in our honor. First at the parade, and then we will go to the officers' club. There will be a ball. Beer. Salute. A salute in honor of us. I am a colonel and you are on a white horse. Can you hear me? Look at my uniform! Look at the stars it has! I have never showed it for anyone else. I'll just show you. Look! This is my dress uniform. I had it made especially for me! Look, don't be afraid! Shoulder straps? I'll change them! Here they are, the shoulder straps. Here! The real ones! Do you see? Colonel. I am a colonel. I will wear them to the parade. This is my uniform. The cleanest. Why are you coughing? We'll go to the officers' club, drink some beer - and don't be afraid. I am with a sabre, on a white horse, commanding the parade! I am a colonel! I command the parade! I am with the stars! On the white horse! I am a colonel! I command the parade!

They did the same stunt with Durov before he gave up his VK and they promptly forgot about it after he caved in. He allegedly hit a cop, and for americans who want to vote blue, they adjusted it so Kamala allegedly hit a black girl. So convinient.
