And overall that British accent narration reminds me of Terrence and pillippe from South park, it’s somewhere between boring and cringy.
I agree that BBC is a western propaganda outlet, but Hypernormalisation kind of bucks that trend. One of the rare pieces of media appearing on a mainstream channel that critiques mainstream media and the western military-industrial complex. I was actually fairly surprised it aired on BBC.
Because it is a part of the system. The best way to sabotage the revolution is to play along.

The same happened after Maydan. Many were afraid that Putin will close the internet. But he actually was clear that all sides should be heard.

I think this prevents the system from overheating.

Keep on sleeping I guess :lol:

'Fascist' lol

I guess you didn't even bother to watch the video but whatever, I don't really care about opinions or trying to win an argument, common sense and truth will speak for itself. Actually it was Russell Brand making some very good and obvious points.

Russell Brand and Chris Hedges clearly do not understand the most basic aspects of the situation in Ukraine. These guys are just using the war to promote their cliche "anti-establishment" agendas. Noam Chomsky does the same thing. They don't mind overlooking or bending the facts to fit their distorted narratives.

Putin is an imperialist psycho who is carrying out a genocide against the Ukrainian people. He and his propagandists openly advocate for rebuilding the Russian empire, which means the military conquest of a huge chunk of Europe. His regime needs to be shut down, the same way that Hitler's regime should have been shut down in 1938 when the Germans wanted to annex Sudetenland. This is the way to prevent World War III, not appeasing Putin, as the allies did with Hitler in Munich.

You realise that what you are saying Hitler, genocide, regime, could also be turned at your side?

How about Iraq and Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, these are just historical facts.

But ideologically you just bashing others with a stick, in hope to be so righteous and heroic.

Russia is an empire, always was. It is also brotherly nation with other Slavic countries like Belarus and Ukraine. Unfortunately for the west they couldn’t make an uprising in Belarus, so the plan ultimately failed.

And stop pretending that you care about human rights in Russia, or in Ukraine.

Probably if you care so much you wouldn’t send more and more weapons to Ukraine.

Just say that in order for the west to flourish they need Russia to fail, or better not exist at all.

You just roll in and take all the resources, like you always do :)

Arvy how can you say that Russia is a brother to Ukraine if their military is actively invading Ukraine?

I mean Russell Brand has kind of turned into a grifter but it's weird to frame any criticism of American War actions as doing so "just to be edgy." And it's wrong to even compare him to Noam Chomsky lol.

There is a fair and historical fact that the US has created and thrived as a nation on imperialism, whether it be through occupation or proxy wars. I'm not saying it's wrong that they're giving military support to Ukraine, but you have to at least admit that it is in its interest to make money through the military industrial complex. Therefore Ukraine is a convenient proxy for America at the same time as showing support. The two things can be true at once

Typical Russian whataboutism. We already discussed this in the other thread about the war.

Russia is not a ‘brotherly’ nation with Ukraine anymore, obviously. The two nations are engaged in a massive war.

You seriously believe that the Maidan revolution was ‘engineered’ by the US? Exactly how did the CIA manage to convince a million people to camp out for months during the protests? I suppose you think that they were all paid actors? The people of Ukraine wanted Yanukovych out because he is a corrupt criminal who works for Putin’s mafia. Any sensible person would want to get rid of his government.

I have lived in Ukraine and have family there. I know people who are fighting in the war. They are prepared to die to defend the country from Putin’s orcs. They don’t need to be pushed by anyone from outside to make these sacrifices. They will kill Russians, even if they have to use their bare hands. And I will support them in their struggle until the end. Fuck Russia.

No, this is not whataboutism. This clearly shows where the Western lies are coming from.

I believe US and other western allies helped Maidan through media propaganda, shooting from windows at protesters, simply giving warm food during the protest.
And did Yanukovich out of the office made Ukraine a better country?

And I believe that Ukraine and Russians are brotherly nation. And as soon as war ends, eventually everything will come back to normal life.

You are saying that you lived in Ukraine and will support them until the end. Are you ready go to the war, to make that sacrifice? Are you a killer?

I'm not going anywhere, if the war comes to my country I'm going to fight against Russia. And eventually catch my bullet. Not because I want to, but because I feel I stuck in this historical trap.

Right or wrong, that is still textbook whataboutism.

I'm not posting anything else in this thread.

I'm British and unlike most in my country I don't have an opinion on politics in the US. It's none of my business or anyone else's in the UK unless they have dual citizenship.
