These libs are so used to having stopped caring about a war 8 years before it’s lost that they don’t even recognize what losing a war looks like. They think they can copium their way into Ukraine getting better terms.

I’m supporting the decision of the Georgian state to improve relations with Russia, its neigbour and the regional power. I support this because improved relations can lead to security and trade agreements that improve the material conditions of the Georgian working class. If the state ultimately backs away from this decision due to it being a ploy to gain leverage over the west, then I will absolutely be critical of such a move. On the other hand, I can imagine how following through can be beneficial for the ruling class as well and I don’t think that your conclusion is a guaranteed outcome.

As others have said, the article is about Georgia’s decision to strengthen its relationship with Russia at the expense of its relationship with the west. The rose revolution is important to understand Georgia’s current position on this.

Has IvanishviIi not already established a regime? In what way does improving relations with Russia allow him to further consolidate his power? While I certainly don’t support oligarchy, Georgia’s struggle against western imperialism is surely worth critical support.

I’m not familiar at all with Georgian politics, but if what you say is true, I do kind of agree that the author should have included some discussion on the matter. That being said, I don’t see how this makes it not “great news”. Regardless of who holds power in Georgia, do you think that having better relations with Russia, its neighbor with which they share a border, will be a bad thing for Georgians?

Lmao. You’re going to need to provide a source for that one.

Usually elder characters are boring

Not Matt Groening ones. Mr. Burns, Abe Simpson, Jasper Beardsley, Hans Moleman (although according to his own words, he’s only 31).

There’s a pretty long list of other world leaders who if they went out violently like this, I’d be all ripbozo smoking on the prez pack. Unfortunately, Raeisi is not one of them.

Final guess: 11ty?

The problem with liberal democracies isn’t that representatives are elected, its who those politicians represent. It’s not the working class, except when it is and those politicians get Salvador Allende’d 💀.

Can anyone guess what it is? My guess is SolidJS

Great explanation. Thank you!

Hell yeah!

McConnell has a pretty intricate signature for someone missing 90% of their brain

I do not. You say that the CIA does however, so the analogy still works.

And that’s different from Amerikkka how?

Pot calling the kettle black. 🤷

I am neither a mister nor a Bolshevik.

I’ll take the L on this one. I shouldn’t have assumed your gender. I’m sorry.

The Bolshevik thing was sarcasm.

So the CIA calls him a dictator in one memo and not in another. I suppose that proves nothing in the end. Except that the CIA clearly doesn’t understand Soviet governance based on the other details in the memo that you linked.

Okay mister Bolshevik. What you write is contrary to everything that I’ve read about soviet governance, but I guess I’ll just have to take your word for it.

The collective west is currently taking part in an active genocide, out in the open for all to see. But gommunism bad holodomor vuvuzela no iPhone. We can’t upset the genocidal ruling class now, can we?

Youre welcome. The CIA agrees on the first point. https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP80-00810A006000360009-0.pdf
