David Cameron has urged US lawmakers to pass a bill including support for Ukraine and warned them not to show “the weakness displayed against Hitler”.
The foreign secretary said Congress should vote through the foreign aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan for the sake of global security. The bill has passed through the senate but faces a deeply uncertain future in the House of Representatives, where Republicans aligned with presidential frontrunner Donald Trump oppose the legislation.
“Right now in Congress, the American support for Ukraine is being debated, and I urge those congressmen and women to pass that bill to provide that money, to provide those weapons to Ukraine,” Lord Cameron said on a visit to the Bulgarian capital, Sofia.
“They are fighting off illegal Putin aggression and they need our support. We should be standing up for freedom, standing up for the right of this country to defend itself and making sure that Putin doesn’t win.
Bad news - 33% of the country loves or is tolerant of fascism.
They are Authoritarians. A guy did a study on them in the 90s and basically found that you will have 30% of any country that craves dictators, an incrediblely strict social structure, and an iron fisted approach to government. Usually, it’s conditioned through family patriarchal means. But often is religious based.
It’s the job of the normies to out vote the crazy fucks. We done fucked up in 2016 and took the lid off the pot.
Yup I like to hateread /r/conservative and one of their big posts was how Tucker was praising Putin’s Moscow for having less crime and homelessness than the average American city. My dudes, the criminals and homeless are dying on the front. Not to mention if you called Putin “Sleepy” or some stupid shit you would end up falling through a window.
I just imagined a caretaker/servant seeing a tired Putin late at night, asking him if he was sleepy and offering him tea. Putin accepts tea and the servant returns to the kitchen to prepare the tea. The servant is immediately thrown out the kitchen window.
The defenestration of grog.
the patriarchal family and religion must be destroyed if we’re going to have peace and democracy
I grew up in a matriarchy, religion is the disease, specifically the cults of Abraham.
Any religion, I’d argue. Look at the way India’s been sliding into Hindu nationalism/fascism. Japan went full fascist with Shinto leading up to WWII. Any flavor of God Emperor is a bad, bad sign.
But only fascism in their (perceived) favour, of course
Similar rating (Putin’s approval) seems to be over 80% in Russia. Not that it excuses 33%, that’s way too high also.
