Again, elections happen under competitive authoritarianism. What doesn’t happen is legal accountability for criminals allied with the government, or elections that are fully free & fair. We already don’t have those. If the claim is we’re still going to be a full democracy in 2026/8, I have bad news.

Listening to these so called experts spewing USA propaganda about how Ukraine needs to cave to USA/Russia demands. Fuck off! You folks are absolutely clueless because you fail to recognize that USA no longer holds the power or status within the world. It shifted, as fast as the USA is falling.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.
