Elon musk won't allow twitter to ban people for political opinions or talking about a story that is forbidden.

Political opinions like? Stories that are forbidden like?

I get it's fun to have opinions without any basis in reality, but come on.

That's gotta be the most bad faith faux handicap question anyone's ever asked in this thread

I've sat through so many idiotic statements in this thread that I don't feel like being polite anymore.

Immortal temptation takes over my mind
Condemned
Falling weak on my knees, summon the strength
Of mayhem



I am the storm that is approaching
Provoking black clouds in isolation
I am reclaimer of my name
Born in flames, I have been blessed
My family crest is a demon of death!
Forsakened, I am awakened
A phoenix's ash in dark divine
Descending misery
Destiny chasing time



Inherit the nightmare, surrounded by fate
Can’t run away
Keep walking the line, between the light
Led astray



Through vacant halls I won’t surrender
The truth revealed in eyes of ember
We fight through fire and ice forever
Two souls once lost, and now they remember



I am the storm that is approaching
Provoking black clouds in isolation
I am reclaimer of my name
Born in flames, I have been blessed
My family crest is a demon of death!
Forsakened, I am awakened
A phoenix's ash in dark divine
Descending misery
Destiny chasing time
Disappear into the night
Lost shadows left behind
Obsession's pulling me
Fading, I've come to take what's mine!



Lurking in the shadows under veil of night
Constellations of blood pirouette
Dancing through the graves of those who stand at my feet
Dreams of the black throne I keep on repeat
A derelict of dark, summoned from the ashes
The puppet master congregates all the masses
Pulling strings, twisting minds as blades hit
You want this power? Then come try and take it
Beyond the tree
Fire burns
Secret love
Bloodline yearns
Dark minds embrace
Crimson joy
Does your dim heart
Heal or destroy?



Bury the light deep within!
Cast aside, there's no coming home!
We're burning chaos in the wind!
Drifting in the ocean all alone!

the information war is brave and bold

I know a lot of people who readily forward ukrainian propaganda to group chats uncritically. you can't even call them out on it cus then the neoliberals get mad and the one ukrainian nationalist in the chat threatens to kill you

it’s pretty clear that any report alleging the other side to be national socialists is purely ideological propaganda, but the scale of whitewashing that us and euro media have been engaging in for the last 15 years makes it impossible to ignore. incredibly annoying and ultimately forces half the arguments about this conflict to completely divorce itself from any material brown townysis. a twitter friend of mine was banned on fb for posting this image

it’s a cropped photo of a 2014 nbc article :iceCream:

for memes though it’s remarkable how difficult it is for ukrainian media to find a soldier willing to do a photo op who isn’t a national socialist

The west has complete brain rot and is completely devoid of any nuance in their politics

This extends to their brown townysis of european conflict. Russia is wrong for invading, therefore there are no national socialists in Ukraine, because national socialists are bad, and Russia is wrong, so Ukraine is right, and how can be national socialists if right? Impossible.

the west does indeed have brain rot, you're a symptom.

dunning meets krueger, conceives Ceist, aborts him before he can attempt another stuff tier clapback

the best explanation i could find for the random national socialistsm sprinkled in ukraine: there were several militarized ideologies in ukraine that formed during conflicts in 2014, including neo-national socialist, communist & anarchist elements. they were mostly unofficial volunteer regiments and paramilitaries that ukraine's army loosely funded during the more trying times of the donbas war. when the current war broke out all of them simultaneously gained traction and volunteers due to being some of the only armed groups in the area. azov is the big armed neo-national socialist faction in ukraine atm and judging from the rare combat footage of them they maintain a weak alliance with the rest of pro-ukraine forces but will occasionally skirmish with them, either through lack of communication or their own agenda to control ukraine. there is also unconfirmed footage of them committing various war crimes, including zip-tying, butchering and cannibalizing alleged enemy soldiers

war tends to bring out the worst of people's ideologies since all infrastructure has collapsed and the only thing worth any salt during a war is weapons, defense and intelligence. they already possessed these before the war but now that everything has gone to stuff they have more freedom to operate. if ukraine is forming alliance with neo-national socialist groups like azov, its out of pure necessity as they need all the soldiers, volunteers, mercenaries and conscripts they can get their hands on.

while azov and other groups have put out a lot of their own propaganda since the war started, its important to note that they have been reported to have very small numbers, between 900-2500 active soldiers. their social media and PR definitely gives the illusion that they are more significant in size, similar to cartels like CIA or CJNG. their influence over the conflict has been small but well-documented
