[00:13] frog this ukraine conflict, is extremely irritating, it's not plausible
[00:13] frog followed the "UN security council" meeting live on TV
[00:14] frog Lawrow wasn't at least willing to listen to them, and sent a secretary of his
[00:14] frog gave a 5minute speech, and disappeared...
[00:15] frog all day long: it's all your fault, evil russia, hunger, energy, war
[00:15] MinceR "you betrayed the lawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!"

[00:23] -TechPolBot/#techpol-Lavrov defends Russia at U.N. showdown rife with anger over Ukraine war | Reuters
[00:23] XRevan86 There it is, that's the right link.
[00:25] frog it is both, Russia, and Ukraine, who are major suppliers to the "international community": fertilizers, plant oil, wheat, maize
[00:25] XRevan86 A question: would it be better to use neuters.de links similarly to nitter.it, or would that add too much expirability to the links?
[00:26] frog Zelenskij too, again, gave a speech, almost shedding tears, "we are the international community"
[00:27] frog they met in New York, headquarters i think...
[00:35] frog some want to expell Russia, from this council, together with their stockpiles of nukes, that's the wisdom and level of intellect there
[00:35] frog anyway, gn
[00:36] XRevan86 They want to strip Russia from holding veto.
[00:36] XRevan86 As it abused it extensively to block any initiative against Russia's interests.
[00:43] XRevan86 https://english.pravda.ru/news/russia/154003-prigozhin_wagner/ This was said just a week ago.
[00:43] -TechPolBot/#techpol-english.pravda.ru | Oligarch Prigozhin: It's either prisoners or your children
[00:43] XRevan86 Putin (maybe): "why not both?"
[00:44] MinceR :>
[00:45] MinceR allegedly putler wants to toss 1 million bodies into the blender, so it's probably going to be both
[00:45] MinceR or he'll lose his position first :>
[00:47] XRevan86 It's quite possible (on a serious note) that Putin has seen the work the prisoners are doing in war, and he realised he needs people with at least a resemblance of discipline and respect of authority.
[00:47] XRevan86 Cannon fodder is fascinating but not very effective.
[00:48] MinceR he's using a time-honored russian strategy, the Horrifying Human Wave Attack
[00:48] MinceR https://crzysdrs.net/dv/victim/453-i-think-the-issue-here-is-that-the-horrifying-human-wave-attack-is-simply-not-the-best-multiplayer-strategy/
[00:48] -TechPolBot/#techpol-crzysdrs.net | Daily Victim Archive
[00:50] XRevan86 MinceR: I haven't decided if I believe the source's information on the one million, as for now they seem to actually be mobilising ~400000, and later sky's the limit, why stop at a million?
[00:52] MinceR \_()_/
[00:52] XRevan86 But who knows, NGE is not going to fabricate a story, but still, a President Administration source is not something I can trust apriori.
[00:53] MinceR is there a point where vladolf will back down?
[00:53] MinceR if not, he'll just mobilize and mobilize until he runs out of slaves
[00:53] MinceR unless he tries nuclear war
[00:55] XRevan86 MinceR: Tactical nuke tops, and even that I doubt anyone including his subordinates will let him.
[00:57] XRevan86 MinceR: "until he runs out of slaves" <- Just like he can't just shoot Ukraine's infrastructure indefinitely (long-range missiles are of limited supply and expensive), he can't train and clothe slaves indefinitely either.
[00:57] XRevan86 So that's actually a more limited supply than ye would think.
[00:58] XRevan86 Reality is a bitch, eh.
[00:59] XRevan86 We're going to see if the logistics can even handle just these new ~350000 soldiers.
● Sep 23
[01:00] XRevan86 Maybe the Russian army is going to crumble under this new weight, that's possible.
[01:01] MinceR he didn't train and clothe them before either, so that's fine with him
[01:02] XRevan86 The potential is not limitless either way.
[01:03] MinceR indeed
[01:03] MinceR he has a finite number of slaves

[01:13] XRevan86 isitblockedinrussia.com just had a convinient domain and everything.
[01:13] scientes what I find annoying is that RUssia also blocks some sites inside russia
[01:13] scientes so i have to switch my VPN on and off
[01:13] scientes like rzd.ru is russia-only
[01:14] XRevan86 Welcome to the Digital Concentration Camp, I guess.
[01:14] scientes anyways, didn't expect to get shamelessly robbed by a RZD employee like that
[01:15] XRevan86 scientes: What'd they do?
[01:15] scientes the price was like 5100 so i put 6000 through, and she managed to get the price down to 4910 and give me 100 back
[01:16] scientes pretending that I only gave her 5000
[01:16] scientes it is a 3rd class ticket, and some beds are 5k and others are 7k, so she felt entitled to steal from a rich american half the difference
[01:18] XRevan86 scientes: Cashiers don't really steal in Russia (unless at a market), but maybe it's a regional difference or she really did just want to rob you as an American.
[01:18] psydruid you can always expect the unexpected
[01:18] scientes this is moscow
[01:18] scientes XRevan86, well exactly, I expected honest change because she is a cashier
[01:18] XRevan86 scientes: Anyway, I see ye didn't follow my advice of not going anywhere near Russia.
[01:19] scientes XRevan86, it is actually pretty exciting
[01:19] MinceR XRevan86: you didn't follow it either :>
[01:19] scientes Moscow has so many trains!
[01:20] scientes Like I had this ticket, and I am like oh, I'll go to *the* train station
[01:20] XRevan86 MinceR: %)
[01:20] scientes so I went to one, wrong station, then another stations, wrong station, then another, and another, and another, and another---still wrong station
[01:20] scientes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:21] scientes > (unless at a market),
[01:21] XRevan86 In Petersburg it would be the one near the Mayakovskaya subway station.
[01:21] scientes so basically you are confirming what I am saying, and not really refuting it
[01:22] XRevan86 scientes: I mean, anything can happen there. Although typically the market swindlers rig the weights.
[01:23] scientes XRevan86, ahhh, they use "imperial" measurments :)
[01:23] psydruid this reminds me of my trips from Poznan to Lviv and back
[01:23] scientes charge you in lbs, with prices in metric lbs
[01:24] scientes ok, so this time I need to o to taroslavski train station
[01:24] scientes not sure if that was one I went to before
[01:24] XRevan86 scientes: Don't know if this actually counts as a political discussion, I just wanted you to join this channel as well (:
[01:27] scientes anyways, I have 2 days to find this station

[01:42] XRevan86 MinceR: They're just trying to sell the idea to the masses that Russia can't lose.
[01:44] CrystalMath XRevan86: russia should not lose, because it's right
[01:44] XRevan86 I don't think that's going to work all that well against the feeling that Russia is losing.
[01:44] CrystalMath the west is evil andwrong
[01:44] CrystalMath *and wrong
[01:44] CrystalMath losing is not the problem, but not giving your all for a truly righteous cause is
[01:44] CrystalMath saving the donbass republics is a righteous cause
[01:45] XRevan86 CrystalMath: My metrics are different from yours, so I can't possibly agree.
[01:47] CrystalMath XRevan86: so are you the kind that wants kosovo reincorporated into serbia, or the kind that is a western imperialist hypocrite pig?

[01:48] scientes jI've got to get my VPN set up better on my laptop

[01:48] scientes works well on android
[01:48] *scientes didn't expect tor to be blocked
[01:48] scientes it is just a software incompatibility problem
[01:49] XRevan86 CrystalMath: I am the kind that is okay with the status quo as long as no more blood is spilled.
[01:49] CrystalMath XRevan86: so which kind are you?
[01:49] scientes Network Manager and Connman--neither are really setup for wireguard, except as an actual VPN
[01:49] scientes not for tunneling your whole internet
[01:49] CrystalMath XRevan86: okay but then you don't recognize kosovo per se?
[01:49] scientes especially when you have to deal with captive portals
[01:49] scientes however, my 4G card does work here
[01:49] MinceR CrystalMath: which state is kosovo supposed to annex itself to?
[01:49] CrystalMath MinceR: albania
[01:49] scientes although only at 64kbps for now---I think if i plug it into a phone and back it will work faster
[01:50] MinceR CrystalMath: you don't have citations on that, do you?
[01:50] scientes XRevan86, what is with the +8 numbers?
[01:50] XRevan86 scientes: They're not +8, they're just 8.
[01:50] scientes why is russia so special that they use two country codes?
[01:50] CrystalMath MinceR: you either support territorial integrity or you don't
[01:50] scientes XRevan86, but moscow is 925?
[01:50] CrystalMath MinceR: if you make it selective, you're an imperialist pig
[01:50] CrystalMath because then someone has to select
[01:51] CrystalMath and who's that going to be?
[01:51] scientes you mean it is like +1 800 XRevan86 ?
[01:51] scientes toll free
[01:51] XRevan86 scientes: No, 8 is the legacy code for reaching the intercity telephone numbers.
[01:52] XRevan86 from the USSR
[01:52] XRevan86 So it can be used instead of the proper international telephone code for Russia, which is +7

[01:55] CrystalMath err

[01:55] CrystalMath +381
[01:55] CrystalMath +44 is poland, no?
[01:55] scientes +44 is yugoslavia
[01:55] scientes and is still in use
[01:55] scientes +1 is usa and canada
[01:56] XRevan86 scientes: +44 is the UK
[01:56] XRevan86 +38 was Yugoslavia
[01:56] CrystalMath right, poland is +48
[01:57] CrystalMath +44 is the UK
[01:57] CrystalMath +380 is ukraine
[01:58] CrystalMath and +387 is bosnia

[02:00] scientes CrystalMath, you realize that is another Koran verse
[02:00] scientes they got smart at Bell Labs in New Jersey
[02:00] scientes and interestingly this technology was good enough they got inside USSR with it
[02:01] scientes there is a great book about that place
[02:01] scientes and everybody left there was incorporated into Google, and was the team being the Go-language
[02:01] CrystalMath a quran verse?
[02:01] scientes Koran is fine
[02:01] CrystalMath okay but what verse?
[02:01] scientes "Qur'an" is just stupid over-transliterization
[02:02] scientes CrystalMath, 44 and 48
[02:02] scientes also also 7, as I was saying
[02:02] scientes although I noticed for FIFA2020 they got a little smart with Qa_tar
[02:02] scientes to help people get it right
[02:02] scientes without over transliterizing it
[02:03] CrystalMath oh gosh, i can imagine americans pronouncing it like "cater"
[02:03] scientes CrystalMath, and they do!

[02:05] CrystalMath "Indeed, We revealed the Torah, containing guidance and light, by which the prophets, who submitted themselves to Allah, made judgments for Jews. So too did the rabbis and scholars judge according to Allahs Book, with which they were entrusted and of which they were made keepers. So do not fear the people; fear Me! Nor trade my revelations for a fleeting gain. And those who do not judge by what
[02:05] CrystalMath Allah has revealed are truly the disbelievers."
[02:05] CrystalMath this is 5:44
[02:06] CrystalMath surah al-maidah
[02:06] scientes CrystalMath, no, chapter, not verse
[02:06] scientes that is chapter 5
[02:06] scientes +7 +44 and +48 are chapters
[02:07] scientes but I suspect you are just being a smart ass
[02:08] CrystalMath ah, i see
[02:08] scientes I guess ZNC will save my scrollback now that I have joined these channels
[02:08] scientes my battery will die, see you later
[02:09] CrystalMath see you
[02:18] MinceR 23 025053 < CrystalMath> MinceR: if you make it selective, you're an imperialist pig
[02:18] MinceR you're full of shit
[02:18] MinceR as usual
[02:28] CrystalMath selective application of the law is the worst form of lawlessness
[02:29] CrystalMath it *cannot* be selective, i respect all opinions, apart from the one that says "it should be whatever i feel like at the moment"
[02:29] CrystalMath that's true tyranny
[02:30] XRevan86 Did somebody say "Russia"?
[02:30] XRevan86 "selective application of the law is the worst form of lawlessness" <- There it is, yea, I knew I saw it.
[02:32] psydruid would be a good thing for Russia to be carved up into pieces and the individual parts to join other countries or become independent countries?
[02:32] CrystalMath psydruid: no, because that would delay the formation of a proper multipolar world order
[02:32] psydruid would that make people both in and outside Russia happy?
[02:32] CrystalMath it would also shift things in a bad direction regardingeurope
[02:32] CrystalMath *regarding europe
[02:33] psydruid CrystalMath, I'm just trying to see what the endgame is in this scenario
[02:33] CrystalMath even just russia's failure to complete the special operation would have the consequence of severely limiting the possibility of peaceful resistance to european unification
[02:33] XRevan86 psydruid: No, that would destabilise the whole region further for decades to come.
[02:33] CrystalMath which, of course, means we would need to form a violent resistance to european unification
[02:34] psydruid would it*
[02:34] CrystalMath which is not what i want
[02:35] psydruid is European unification an option? what does European unification even mean?
[02:37] CrystalMath that is the end goal of undermining the sovereignity of european countries, and the will of its people
[02:37] CrystalMath the formation of a tyrannical federal government, mirroring the one in the US
[02:37] psydruid so we are at an impasse now and neither the dissolution of Russia nor European unification is desired
[02:38] XRevan86 Installing a puppet as the head of Ukraine in a violent take-over is what we call respecting the sovereignity of a European country.
[02:38] psydruid what is going to happen next?
[02:38] MinceR apparently only CrystalMath's beloved is allowed to run a federal government
[02:38] CrystalMath XRevan86: that is what they say
[02:38] MinceR but he also gets to violently annex other countries into it
[02:38] MinceR must be nice.
[02:38] CrystalMath XRevan86: of course we are talking about euromaidan?
[02:38] CrystalMath XRevan86: obviously i don't agree with it
[02:38] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Of course I am talking about February 2022.
[02:39] CrystalMath ah, so there's a bit of a misunderstanding
[02:39] CrystalMath because i could sworn you were talking about euromaidan
[02:39] CrystalMath *could've
[02:39] CrystalMath "Installing a puppet as the head of Ukraine in a violent take-over is what we call respecting the sovereignity of a European country." - this is euromaidan without a doubt
[02:39] MinceR keep saying that and you'll believe it too!
[02:39] psydruid Glory to the Ukrainian Republic of Puppet Regimes
[02:40] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Who's the puppet in that case?
[02:40] CrystalMath XRevan86: poroshenko
[02:40] CrystalMath the violence was burning people alive in odessa
[02:40] CrystalMath and obama's hand in all of that is the violation of sovereignity

[02:41] scientes Cool, worked!
[02:41] CrystalMath XRevan86: he was swapped out with Zelensky
[02:41] CrystalMath and i did a check, there was nobody in between
[02:41] scientes psydruid: wht does it mean to you?
[02:41] CrystalMath it was Yanukovich -> Poroshenko -> Zelensky
[02:41] XRevan86 CrystalMath: There was one person before Poroshenko.
[02:41] CrystalMath XRevan86: not according to wikipedia
[02:41] XRevan86 Acting President Turchak
[02:41] scientes Psydruid, i thought the puppet was putin?
[02:42] XRevan86 Turchinov
[02:43] psydruid sciences, that could very well be the case, but who is the master of puppets then?
[02:43] XRevan86 CrystalMath: When Yanukovich fled Ukraine, the seat of the president was vacant, and Turchinov was installed as acting president before the elections.
[02:43] scientes Psydruid , pinnochio
[02:44] CrystalMath XRevan86: he fled because a minority mob of people who didn't vote for him wanted to kill him
[02:44] XRevan86 CrystalMath: "he was swapped out with Zelensky" <- Ye used the passive voice here. Who did the swap out?
[02:44] CrystalMath XRevan86: the american deep state
[02:44] XRevan86 CrystalMath: There are a lot more people who want to kill Putin right now.
[02:44] CrystalMath russia is bigger
[02:44] XRevan86 CrystalMath: I see, an invisible hand of invisibility.
[02:45] psydruid scientes, I have no idea what European unification means. Starbucks, McDonald's and Coca Cola on every corner of every street?
[02:45] scientes Crystalmath, how deep of you! Is there any water in that hole?
[02:45] CrystalMath psydruid: no, imagine the tyranny of the european parliament now but tenfold
[02:45] CrystalMath crazy SJW laws
[02:45] CrystalMath feminist garbage spewed everywhere
[02:45] CrystalMath LGBT propaganda
[02:46] CrystalMath that's what it would look like, i mean that is what it looks like now
[02:46] scientes Psydruid, thats wht half of the US looks like. Chase manhatten on every block of manhatten because of overprices realestate which is being propped up with printing toilet paper.
[02:46] CrystalMath but it would be worse, and we could not have an Orbn or Duda to put a halt to it
[02:46] CrystalMath that's not even the worst of it, the worst of it is the climate agenda
[02:46] scientes Thankfully I escaped in time.
[02:46] CrystalMath and taking away people's property
[02:47] scientes I planned on kissing the ground, butthat didnt exactly happen.
[02:47] CrystalMath if russia loses, then people will fight against it but with terrorist acts probably, because all elections will simply be overthrown by fake revolutions as in ukraine
[02:47] XRevan86 MinceR: Why is it always conspiratorial with these people?
[02:47] scientes Butveet excitng to see Moscow, for all [rail]roads lead to Moscow.
[02:48] CrystalMath it = european unification
[02:48] CrystalMath if russia loses, then people will fight against [european unification] but with terrorist acts probably, because all elections will simply be overthrown by fake revolutions as in ukraine
[02:48] scientes CrystalMath, and is UK part of europe?
[02:48] CrystalMath and people who are against this horrible agenda but don't want to fight will flee europe
[02:48] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Maybe don't kill protestors and flee the country?
[02:48] scientes I am just going to block you and your noise.
[02:49] CrystalMath scientes: who knows
[02:49] CrystalMath XRevan86: the protesters will then kill you
[02:49] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Lukashenko survived backlash from imprisoning his opponents and faking the election.
[02:49] CrystalMath XRevan86: for any attempt to stop the evil agenda
[02:49] XRevan86 Is it because 10 million Belarus' is bigger than 40 million Ukraine?
[02:49] scientes Ignore: unknown command
[02:49] scientes Lame
[02:50] CrystalMath XRevan86: no, it's better in a smaller country for this scenario, no? because if you have a losing 40%, that 40% will be smaller and won't be able to violently overthrow
[02:51] CrystalMath like suppose you have a place where 60% dominates over the 40%, it's an ugly scenario, but if the country is large enough, the 40% could be militant enough to take things over by force
[02:51] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Can ye tell me what secret weapon they used to overthrow?
[02:51] CrystalMath yeah, gathering in one place with pitchforks
[02:51] XRevan86 I want to know, could be useful.
[02:51] scientes I saw Ramadon Krasnodar on the TV in Krasnodar, but TV in Russia is very different from what they project outside russia.
[02:51] XRevan86 CrystalMath: 1. gather with pitchforks on a square. 2. ??? 3. PROFIT
[02:51] scientes As I say Hello to lenin in the park.
[02:52] XRevan86 scientes: That's why I share Russian Media Monitor, it's a glimpse into abyss from outside.
[02:52] scientes (Actually Georga is woorse, with a stupid Polish statue in Batumi Noam Chomsky ordered put up, bcaue he enves Adolf Hiter....)
[02:53] CrystalMath my mom watches russian TV all the time
[02:53] CrystalMath she uses "smotrim" nowadays to see it
[02:53] scientes Russia K is good
[02:54] XRevan86 scientes: Russia Culture is good? Eh.
[02:54] scientes But there still is that clear contrast between the old Soviet state and the new nationalist putin state.
[02:54] psydruid CrystalMath, in Russian or dubbed/subtitled in Serbian?
[02:54] scientes Xrevan got to see some old Soviet movies tht were great on there.
[02:54] CrystalMath psydruid: in russian
[02:54] XRevan86 psydruid: smotrim.ru wouldn't be dubbed/subtitled.
[02:54] CrystalMath XRevan86: so does she get russia news or outside-russia news?
[02:54] scientes Like one abiut a boys camp with goats, and anither anout homosexuality.
[02:55] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Inside Russia news of course.
[02:55] CrystalMath i see
[02:55] psydruid CrystalMath, do you understand Russian as well as she does?
[02:55] CrystalMath not even close
[02:55] scientes Xrevan86, but it is at least as bad as US state news.
[02:56] psydruid let me see if smotrim.ru is blocked here
[02:56] scientes I found some kopec.
[02:57] scientes Not sure what to do with them.
[02:57] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Julia Davis mostly posts translations of juicy bits from the Russian talk shows like "60 minutes".
[02:59] scientes Xrevan86 geeze i thought they were joking whe i read aout those on meduza
[02:59] scientes Why does anyone want 5 shows that hve the exact same hawk position.
[02:59] XRevan86 scientes: The perfect thing for the CrystalMath's mum.
● Sep 23
[03:00] scientes Xrevan86 US propoganda got much more sophisticsted a long time ago
[03:01] scientes Like they talk about health care for years, as if itis always right around the corner
[03:01] XRevan86 scientes: Putin's promises are exactly like that.
[03:01] scientes While At the same time i learned i am on the "No government ID list"
[03:02] XRevan86 scientes: What does that mean?
[03:03] scientes Xrevan86 it means that the internet fals exactly when I am talking to the man aboutgetting an id, after he pulls up my fascist marker.
[03:03] scientes They have had a war with the Washington Washington Legislature about this, so I know i am not the onlyone.
[03:04] scientes Xrevan86 tgis started with Bill Clinton---taking awa peoples drvers licenses for poltica reasons.
[03:04] scientes And Dmitry Orlov is totally aware of, and showed up in Bad Wolf on RTD.
[03:05] XRevan86 In Russia it's just an internal passport which is mandatory.
[03:05] scientes The replacement refugee, after i took the time to show that Edward Snowde was a liar.
[03:06] scientes Xrevan86 the US empire stole my internal ID in Tbilisi so that they could persecute me after forcing me to return to US.
[03:06] XRevan86 scientes: Is there a criminal case open on you?
[03:06] scientes No, and it doesn't doesn't that way here.
[03:07] scientes *in USA
[03:07] scientes But I have been in US prison for no crime whatsoever.
[03:07] CrystalMath XRevan86: my mom knows russian really well
[03:07] CrystalMath oh, you were responding to scientes
[03:07] CrystalMath nevermind
[03:07] scientes THAT is how US works.
[03:07] scientes If they get paid, there is no law.
[03:08] XRevan86 scientes: "Dmitry Orlov" <- Are ye still following that cunt?
[03:09] CrystalMath Snowden did not lie
[03:09] scientes Sort of. He is also an advisor to Putin and RT.
[03:10] scientes Xrevan86 I don't read Orlov's blog, if tha is what you are asking, but he remains a friend. He lives in Peter.
[03:11] XRevan86 scientes: Ye know him personally?
[03:11] scientes I've been in communication with him for over a decade.
[03:11] CrystalMath i know about ClubOrlov
[03:11] XRevan86 scientes: Don't tell him about me, I don't want to die %)
[03:11] CrystalMath it was my source of cool anti-lockdown quips
[03:11] psydruid CrystalMath,
[03:12] scientes And read 2 of his books
[03:12] CrystalMath psydruid: because i never learned russian
[03:12] CrystalMath i mean i did a little this year, by listening to it all the time
[03:12] CrystalMath i think i understand it better than before 2022
[03:12] scientes Xrevan86 but as I as saying, he became not only a supporter of putin after being a doubter 10 years ago, to being an advisor to Putin.
[03:13] CrystalMath https://cluborlov.blogspot.com/
[03:13] -TechPolBot/#techpol-cluborlov.blogspot.com | ClubOrlov
[03:13] psydruid I think my understanding of it has also improved this year
[03:13] CrystalMath is this the one?
[03:14] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Yes.
[03:14] CrystalMath XRevan86: okay, he's a cool guy then
[03:15] XRevan86 CrystalMath: He's a liar, so yes, perfect for you.
[03:15] scientes Specifically, he worked in high energy physics for the US government until the collapse of the soviet union mde the US uninterested.
[03:15] CrystalMath XRevan86: what does he lie about?
[03:15] scientes So he is an advisor on US culture.
[03:15] psydruid before I got covid for the second time earlier this year I was on a roll doing a lesson of Russian, Ukrainian and Polish a day, hoping to finish the courses in a month or two
[03:15] CrystalMath XRevan86: i was actually worried about visiting his new page because i feared that he might be pro-ukraine :P
[03:16] CrystalMath had no idea who that really was
[03:16] CrystalMath the blog is now at https://cluborlov.wordpress.com/
[03:16] -TechPolBot/#techpol-cluborlov.wordpress.com | ClubOrlov | I d e a s t o b l o w y o u r m i n d
[03:16] CrystalMath and i will read up starting from 2022
[03:16] XRevan86 CrystalMath: I know ye value alignment more than anything.
[03:16] psydruid that didn't happen, but I hope I can still finish them by the end of the year
[03:16] scientes Xrevan86 Dmitry orlov came to the US under a US-USSR official exchange program, and he is from St Petersburg of USSR originally.
[03:17] scientes He also has a son.
[03:19] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Unfortunately, I can't access full posts like https://cluborlov.wordpress.com/2022/04/08/ukraine-just-the-facts/ as they as on Boosty (Liberapay-like service). But from the tone I can tell he's one of the people who ignore things like this: https://nytimes.com/2022/05/19/world/europe/russia-bucha-ukraine-executions.html
[03:19] -TechPolBot/#techpol-cluborlov.wordpress.com | Ukraine: just the facts | ClubOrlov
[03:19] -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.nytimes.com | New Evidence Shows How Russian Soldiers Executed Men in Bucha - The New York Times
[03:19] XRevan86 I'm 100% certain of that.
[03:19] scientes Xrevan86, except that NY Times often has lies targeted directly to me.
[03:20] XRevan86 scientes: I don't care about the publisher whatsoever.
[03:20] scientes And NYTimes praises genocide against Canadian first nations
[03:20] XRevan86 It's video footage, that's hard facts.
[03:20] scientes Xrevan86, NY TIMES is the official paper of the uS empire.
[03:21] XRevan86 scientes: It's impossible for the Russian soldiers to lead a line of unarmed people to a place where they will be shot dead (there are photographs of their corpses), because Konashenkov said that the Russian army left Bucha all fine and dandy.
[03:22] XRevan86 And yet, here we are.
[03:22] scientes Yes, it is just that the US empire should solve its own problems first, as it has many of them.
[03:23] XRevan86 scientes: They obtained the footage as their exclusive, so nothing I can do about that.
[03:23] scientes Including the disdain it's state feels for its own people, such as the 9/11/2011 inside job.
[03:23] scientes Which even the Prime Minister brags about.
[03:23] scientes Mr. Biden.
[03:24] XRevan86 Ye may notice that a lot of data that CIT uses comes from absolutely vile people. When authenticity of the data is irrefutable, it becomes it's own thing.
[03:25] XRevan86 https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/04/07/meduza-publishes-new-footage-evidencing-civilian-murders-in-bucha-during-russian-occupation I should also remind that this exists.
[03:25] -TechPolBot/#techpol-meduza.io | NO TITLE
[03:26] XRevan86 We're 5 months in and all Russia can say to address this is "NO U".
[03:26] scientes It could come from the US deep state.
[03:27] scientes As it is satellite footage.
[03:27] XRevan86 scientes: Ye are confusing the footage.
[03:27] XRevan86 This is *drone* footage.
[03:27] scientes But the crimes are crims.
[03:27] scientes Oh, what I read said satellite.
[03:27] XRevan86 The satellite footage is more known even though it's worse.
[03:28] XRevan86 The drone footage is easier to verify as authentic and easier to timestamp.
[03:28] scientes That power station was bombed shortly after I met those refugee girls.
[03:28] XRevan86 And because the raw footage is also published, one can look around in the high-resolution shots.
[03:29] scientes But it don't make no difference to a mad-man playing with his toy-soldiers, who never die.
[03:29] XRevan86 scientes: Naturally, the response to the allegations is "NO U".
[03:30] scientes Who finds this footage SEXY: https://collateralmurder.wikileaks.org/
[03:30] -TechPolBot/#techpol-collateralmurder.wikileaks.org | Collateral Murder
[03:30] XRevan86 But no one has concrete proof even now, so here we are. Russia could have proof but it chooses not to defend itself with anything but words. Completely not suspicious.
[03:30] scientes If that gives you a hard-on, you have problems and belong in prison.
[03:30] scientes Yet that is Noam Chomsky!
[03:32] CrystalMath XRevan86: this is not the first time the west has faked the exact same thing
[03:32] XRevan86 > Iraq is a very dangerous place for journalists: from 2003- 2009, 139 journalists were killed while doing their work.
[03:32] XRevan86 That resonates with the current events, yes.
[03:32] CrystalMath https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C4%8Dak_massacre
[03:32] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Raak massacre - Wikipedia
[03:33] CrystalMath this was the first american-made fake of this type
[03:33] CrystalMath most people said it was a prototype for future setups
[03:34] CrystalMath and indeed we can see that
[03:34] XRevan86 CrystalMath: There are seemingly a few differences though.
[03:34] XRevan86 1. has the US continued to deny the crime after the proof was released?
[03:35] XRevan86 2. the scale is smaller at least in this instance.
[03:35] XRevan86 3. Russian drones have shittier cameras (but with colour)
[03:36] CrystalMath the alleged perpetrator is the then-government of serbia, no evidence was ever published, and serbia still denies it
[03:36] XRevan86 I get that this is a helicopter, but not sure if the camera would be different because of that.
[03:36] CrystalMath the US set it up to have something to talk about in congress
[03:36] CrystalMath what would even be the motive for killing random people in some villiage?
[03:36] XRevan86 What makes Russia Orwellian is the continued denial when everything is already uncovered and known by the entire world except Russia.
[03:37] *psydruid remembers the Kuwaiti girl, who was actually a diplomat's daughter
[03:38] XRevan86 That's the display of control Russia is willing to exact over information, and does.
[03:39] XRevan86 And Dmitry Orlov is the kind of person who'd lie to stay in line with the fabricated self-serving narrative the Kremlin is painting.
[03:39] CrystalMath i don't believe in bucha either
[03:39] CrystalMath it screams "fake" to me
[03:39] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Ye are literally blind. I get that.
[03:39] CrystalMath not that i care about the welfare of monsters who murder children in donetsk
[03:41] XRevan86 That justifies killing children elsewhere because they're monsters.
[03:42] XRevan86 Monster children.
[03:42] scientes 9] XRevan86: And Dmitry Orlov is the kind of person who'd lie to stay in line with the fabricated self-serving narrative the Kremlin is paintin
[03:42] XRevan86 When it's at point blank range, that's perfect.
[03:42] scientes Yes, I wouldn't put him above it.
[03:45] XRevan86 https://nitter.it/JuliaDavisNews/status/1573129462518272000
[03:45] -TechPolBot/#techpol-Julia Davis (@JuliaDavisNews): "Top Russian propagandist is incensed that Western countries refused to recognize the outcome of any sham referendums Russia is setting up in occupied parts of Ukraine. He claimed that Russia would put an end to Ukraine's existence: "I gave you life and I will take it away.""|nitter.it
[03:47] XRevan86 scientes: My bar on media is lower because of Russian media, I like it when media doesn't blatantly lie to me and invent things from thin air.
[03:48] scientes I'm going to check out the sovstoyevsy house museum at 12
[03:48] scientes 11
[03:48] XRevan86 A little bias here and there, lies of omission, I can take that.
[03:49] scientes This city is so damn expensive
[03:50] scientes I miss all the produce in Tbilisi.
[03:52] XRevan86 scientes: Things got more expensive lately naturally.
[03:52] XRevan86 Especially in dollars, as the ruble is "expensive" after the exodus of the import.
[03:53] XRevan86 scientes: What is the defacto exchange rate for you?
[03:57] XRevan86 The irony of CrystalMath is that he supports Russia's constant lying which turns Russia's decision-making into a self-destructive shitfest, and that is both supporting Russia and supporting Russia's inevitable demise.
[03:59] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techpol
[03:59] XRevan86 That's just one thing of course. To name another, Russia's population oppression is a brewing pot of civil unrest, national conflicts, et al., one day all this is going to explode and rip Russia apart.
● Sep 23
[04:00] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techpol
[04:05] scientes It is not so expensive outside moscow.
[04:06] XRevan86 Russia is going to lose the war and it will be solely Russia's fault. And the defence against the unprecedented in the region level of violence (yes, compared to the "8 years" as well) is justified, and it's no wonder Ukraine is united more than ever before.
[04:07] XRevan86 scientes: I suppose so, but St. Petersburg is on a par right now apparently.
[04:08] CrystalMath XRevan86: what was a good decision, then?
[04:09] CrystalMath XRevan86: the people of russia need to realize that america is the great satan
[04:09] CrystalMath no matter how much they suffer, it's necessary in order to defeat the great satan
[04:10] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Go suffer, don't bring others into your fight.
[04:10] CrystalMath russia is the only one with a nuclear arsenal that can do it
[04:10] CrystalMath and russia is the one that was attacked, not me
[04:10] CrystalMath that's my point... russia didn't really have any other choice
[04:10] XRevan86 CrystalMath: So your dream is nuclear winter?
[04:11] CrystalMath nuclear winter is preferable to a liberal world
[04:11] CrystalMath with SJW garbage
[04:11] CrystalMath and feminazis running around
[04:12] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Go to a therapist, I'm serious.
[04:12] CrystalMath i mean, i and all the common people are the real target
[04:12] CrystalMath russia is just standing in their way
[04:12] CrystalMath but russia is the one that was attacked first
[04:13] XRevan86 I don't want to discuss anything more, our discussion has reached its peak.
[04:14] scientes I'm just really pissed about tha rzd woman stealing 1000 rb
[04:14] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Take pills or something, I don't know.
[04:14] scientes It messed up my whole day
[04:14] scientes I now have t go to the money changer.
[04:15] XRevan86 scientes: At least that's a real tangible problem.
[04:15] scientes Before the museum, so I am not hungry.

[04:17] scientes But I a not a self-righteous american.
[04:17] CrystalMath telling the truth hurts the junta
[04:17] scientes That argues about a 15% cupon at a thrift store.
[04:17] scientes I saw this when I bought my suitcase.
[04:18] scientes As Xrevan86 says, it really ist about the money--iy is about the trust.
[04:18] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Ukraine has a beef on Amnesty International.
[04:19] psydruid I paid twice as much as I should for a pizza in India when I went there
[04:19] scientes With he tangible prblem being my plans for the day.
[04:19] CrystalMath XRevan86: because amnesty international tells the truth
[04:19] scientes Because otherwise I would hae waited to buy the ticket
[04:20] psydruid I didn't make an issue of it but I told my family and friends about it so it wouldn't happen to them
[04:20] scientes I am just trying to get home. And quite tired by all that is being asked of me.
[04:20] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Oh really? Remind me tomorrow, I'll find you quotes from their reports that condemn Russia for its crimes.
[04:20] scientes Especially all the russian.
[04:21] CrystalMath XRevan86: yes i know about their little bias in the field of territorial integrity
[04:21] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Amnesty International doesn't contest that the amount of injustices Ukraine committed is not even comparable to the terror Russia inflicted on Ukrainian soil.
[04:21] psydruid But you've lived among Russians for such a long time that it must have done wonders for your Russian
[04:22] CrystalMath XRevan86: i'm not asking for much when it comes to western media
[04:22] scientes Psydruid Georgians are not really russians.
[04:22] CrystalMath XRevan86: even if they only recognize that ukrop scum kills children in donetsk to appear more truthful by sounding balanced
[04:22] CrystalMath at least they said it
[04:22] psydruid scientes, I thought you were living among Russian expats
[04:22] CrystalMath the west is too orwellian
[04:23] scientes No
[04:23] CrystalMath it denies even the most obvious facts
[04:23] XRevan86 CrystalMath: https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2022/09/ukraine-mass-graves-in-izium-is-a-macabre-reminder-of-the-cost-of-russian-aggression/
[04:23] -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.amnesty.org | Ukraine: Mass graves in Izium is a macabre reminder of the cost of Russian aggression - Amnesty International
[04:24] CrystalMath XRevan86: see, those people really were killed by russians, they are AFU units after all, whose bodies the junta just left behind
[04:24] XRevan86 A lot of organisations were let to see the graveyard.
[04:24] scientes There is a big difference between the 3rd class and 2nd class train
[04:24] scientes And yet I am going to take the 3rd class for 3 days.
[04:24] XRevan86 Meanwhile, Olenivka is still a mystery site with Red Cross futilely trying to get in.
[04:25] scientes Mainly because I am already too pooped to make anything of he 2nd class train.
[04:25] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Even the women?
[04:25] scientes Although I should get some locks for my suitcase
[04:26] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Also really peculiar to bury Ukrainian soldiers two months into the control of the territory.
[04:27] CrystalMath offensives onto Izium were constant
[04:27] CrystalMath i know that part for sure (confirmed by a serbian guy fighting for russia there)
[04:29] psydruid female soldiers in the Ukrainian army?
[04:29] CrystalMath i never asked about that
[04:29] CrystalMath i know women aren't drafted, but they can still be a part of it

[09:48] frog the problem with "LGBTQ", "feminism", "muliticuralism" of the strain which is common is, how those are conflated with the political system
[09:49] frog to provoke argument: EU is not a constitutional/lawful state, it isn't democratic, it is anti-liberal - and the political fringe known as "the left" aligns with it on the basis of individual benefit
[09:51] scientes frog, it is also based on liberal hypocricy however
[09:51] frog it's not specific to such minorities, that's not the argument, it is just not any moral superiority or ideology, those minorities align to "EU" and similar
[09:51] scientes hence the confusion

[09:52] CrystalMath because what it really is, is cultural erasure
[09:52] CrystalMath they basically say, you can come live over there, but you have to live by their rules
[09:52] scientes as a way of support the nationalists (and they also ignore neo-nazis there, which is very troubling considering all the largest extermination camps were there)
[09:52] CrystalMath your culture will be assimilated, it will become some TV joke
[09:52] scientes the complete cognative dissonance of that is troubling
[09:52] CrystalMath this is basically the borg, i do not support it
[09:53] CrystalMath different cultures should exist, but in places where THEY call the shots
[09:53] CrystalMath e.g. sharia law
[09:53] scientes that people don't kill neonazis outright in Poland---anyone that doesn't is stupid and doesn't value their lives

[10:00] scientes *on TV from prison
[10:00] frog scientes: may I ask where you are residing/living/coming-from? i am not asking to spy on you, only want to know what the perspective of yours is.
[10:00] scientes (this has nothing to do with that man's crimes, as Medyedev says "He is a criminal, I will never shake his hand" because the US doesn't care what a criminal you are)
[10:00] scientes frog, I am in Moscow at the moment, but I lived in Georgia for 3 years
[10:01] frog thanks. noted.
[10:01] scientes until the US empire persecuted me there
[10:01] scientes and flew me over the north pole against my will
[10:01] scientes abducted me from the border, kidnapped me, tried to convert me to homosexuality (I do not say that in jest, and it was a joint project with the fascism in the US), and trafficked in my body
[10:02] scientes thankfully the Russian Federation was able to get habeus corpus granted, and now I am safer in Russia
[10:03] scientes and despite the threats they were also aware of my whereabouts as a traveled through Qatar
[10:03] scientes the US also defaced my US passport with Obama's creative interpretations (i.e. incorrect) of law
[10:04] scientes so I need to make plans to not get it renewed, and it helps that in Moscow they put the stamp directly on the Visa
[10:04] scientes because I ended up with the souvineer passport with very few pages
[10:05] scientes I was also stalked when i applied to file taxes in the US
[10:06] scientes (and not by the IRS)
[10:06] scientes but by the fascists
[10:07] scientes anyways, I did get my taxes filed

[10:23] frog do those drafts contain orders to any workplace too?
[10:24] scientes frog, there is an article of that
[10:24] scientes but it is about Ukranian drafters
[10:31] frog i reject any service involved with violent force, either being exposed to it or commiting it.
[10:32] frog the report from Tsimlyansky seems, it explains the ordinary german legislation, which was abandoned 10 years ago
[10:32] frog in the end, what difference is it, to either report to employment agency or any military office?
[10:33] frog strangely, i haven't been called at least _once_ in almost 5 years, although i had sent thousands of letters, in germany
[10:35] frog in germany, mandatory military draft was abandoned, we got an exclusively "professional military" now
[10:36] frog i won't sign up with them, and i am probably "too old" already, and what i studied and learned, it's pretty much useless anyway
[10:37] frog and i mean, before i relocated from east-germany to bavaria, 10 years ago, i, myself, alone, trained myself
[10:37] frog swimming, 15miles per week; currently, i am rotting in an appartment here in Nurnberg, with fungus at the walls because i couldn't afford heating this shithole
[10:38] frog too i continued practicing all sorts of programming skills, reading political literature, simply because, i couldn't comprehent the madhouse situation, and seeked an explanation
[10:39] frog i can't do elaborate scientific work, without a lab-space and university surrounding me, where i could live and work in peace
[10:39] frog instead, it is constant threats of being thrown out... can't pay the rent, 8 weeks, you're out
[10:39] frog scientes: no need for drafting anyone with this system in place
[10:39] scientes swimming, 15miles per week; currently, i am rotting in an appartment here in Nurnberg, with fungus at the walls because i couldn't afford heating this shithole
[10:39] scientes nice
[10:40] scientes i was swimming 3 km a day for a while
[10:40] scientes it was great
[10:40] scientes i swam 5km in La Paz one day
[10:40] frog scientes: could be worse. i rejected german military draft for another reason, which was the political turmoil of 1990
[10:40] scientes which is at very high elevation
[10:40] scientes 1/2 the air pressure
[10:41] frog open water is more challenging, in swimming hall, i limited my track to 7kilometers, in 2.5hours
[10:41] frog as said, this was more than 10 years ago
[10:41] frog and due to the constant harassment and threats by the buraucracy, i had difficulty eating and sleeping enough
[10:42] frog if you want to train, to optimum mental and physical capacity, the body needs alot more sleep and nutrition
[10:42] frog i compensated with coffee and cigarettes... a weird combination, yet, it is possible
[10:43] frog for whatever reason, the drafting system in germany disposed me into the trash bin... it was a rather expensive write-off, i would say
[10:43] frog and, they couldn't afford it either. it's just, different, if basic service of a state was abandoned, the outcome with daily needs is instant, no food, no water
[10:44] frog yet, if they wreck scientific intelligence, for whatever higher cause, it takes a little while, to comprehend the "return of investment" then
[10:44] frog haven't got any children either, just saying, whom could learn and grow up as loyal citizen of this state here
[10:48] frog long story short, i couln't help neither russia nor ukraine anymore, even if i wanted to
[10:49] frog in school and university, i learned russian, noone to talk to in 20 years... that's gone too
[10:52] frog scientes: how are "unemployed" coped with in Russia? is there any employment agency and social security?
[10:53] frog in germany, the employment agency typically proposes a "contract" to sign: "Eingliederungsvereinbarung"
[10:54] frog which translates closely to, "commitment to line up", in military terms, not easily explained

[12:07] XRevan86 scientes: Saying that there are no neo-Nazis anywhere is setting oneself up for failure, indeed.
[12:08] XRevan86 scientes: Saying "there are no neo-Nazis in the Ukrainian political establishment" is correct however. So the statement just needs a tweak.

[12:22] frog in german tv, the frontline soldiers when asked if there was "Nazis" among them, argued they were "slighlty more motivated for this job than the average drafted rercruits"...
[12:23] frog in this case, they carried the Ukrainian flag for this
[12:23] MinceR it's funny how an AfD supporter tries to distract from their own nazism by pinning it on others
[12:23] XRevan86 frog: That's pretty much how that works on both sides.
[12:24] frog exactly
[12:25] XRevan86 Not all of them are proper neo-Nazis (I'm only confident in the Russian ones) but the far-right element is there.
[12:28] frog and it is no secret, among AfD voters, the percentage of police and military is above averge, typically the type of character carrying guns
[12:28] frog MinceR: the german constitution _insists_ military was integrated into the democratic system, not excluded from it
[12:28] frog what would you prefer then, AfD and their voters expelled from parliament?
[12:30] MinceR i would prefer to live among intelligent, civilized beings
[12:30] MinceR but that's obviously not going to happen on Earth
[12:30] frog just because, i ocasionally read their newspapers (you wouldn't at least know which ones to read), doesn't make me a support of them
[12:31] MinceR of course
[12:31] MinceR the fact that you advertise them on IRC regularly does
[12:31] frog among AfD, it's a mixture of different political groups, including pro-life catholics, former christian consevatives, liberals, the mentioned military officers
[12:33] frog and too, some political fringe from the far-right; and my opinion is this, it is far worse to exclude them from public discourse than them remaining in parliament as democratic political party
[12:33] frog if you don't agree with them, don't vote for them

[12:37] frog AfD supports re-introduction of mandatory military draft (which germany abandoned 10years ago, and Russia still has)
[12:37] frog i fundamentally disagree with re-introduction of military draft, however, that's irelevant too, because employment agency here and the social system implements the legal framework regardless
[12:39] frog too, AfD is a strong supporter of the "social security" system and "sanctions"
[12:41] frog i say this system is dysfunctional, it retains the facade of any legal framework to rely upon, a facade of "social security" the government needs to retain to justify their corruption and crimes
[12:42] frog for any "greater good", which first and foremost is their own comfort and pockets stuffed with inflated shitcoins
[12:43] frog MinceR: i only voted for AfD once, which was year 2013, because at that time "EU" apparatschiks celebrated themselves, meanwhile yout unemployment accross Europe exploded
[12:43] frog and it was AfD politicians _only_ who cared to remind "EU" of this minor irelevant detail
[12:44] frog 10 years later, they inflated Euro beyond repair

[13:05] frog 4. On the first day after the pullout a dialogue is to start on modalities of conducting local elections in accordance with the Ukrainian legislation and the Law of Ukraine "On temporary Order of Local Self-Governance in Particular Districts of Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts," and also about the future of these districts based on the above-mentioned law
[13:05] frog elections.
[13:06] XRevan86 frog: What's your point?
[13:07] frog XRevan86: currently the argument perpetuated is "international community won't recognize any referendum", which slightly contradicts the Minsk agreement insisting on decentralized governments and elections
[13:07] XRevan86 frog: It meant the governance *in Ukraine*.
[13:08] XRevan86 Trying to tie into Russia annexing more territory is ludicrious.
[13:08] frog XRevan86: it meant decentralized/federal governments, in Ukraine, yes.
[13:08] frog a decentralized/federal government, is NOT the one from Kiev, in this case
[13:09] MinceR it's funny how agreements count only if and only to the extent they're convenient to vladolf and his fan club
[13:09] XRevan86 MinceR: It's not even "counting" as this is not valid interpretation.
[13:09] MinceR it could sort of make sense if vladolf was in a position of power, but he isn't
[13:09] CrystalMath nobody cared about the minsk agreement, it doesn't work
[13:09] MinceR his empire is going to be ground down to nothing
[13:09] MinceR and now we find out that aggi is nobody
[13:10] CrystalMath maybe there was one way minsk could have worked
[13:10] CrystalMath if Trump had won in 2020
[13:10] CrystalMath and pressured zelensky to respect it
[13:10] MinceR yeah, then the usa would have become a client of the orcish empire
[13:10] CrystalMath MinceR: it was energy-independenet
[13:11] MinceR and another dictatorship
[13:11] CrystalMath *independent
[13:11] CrystalMath so no, the US would not depend on russia in any way
[13:11] MinceR it's the "multipolar" world CrystalMath wants, where the "multi" means 1
[13:11] CrystalMath no
[13:11] CrystalMath there would be 3 poles
[13:11] MinceR lol no
[13:11] CrystalMath US, russia, and china
[13:11] MinceR but presumably poles are also counted according to convenience
[13:12] MinceR because that's also just an excuse to support dictatorships
[13:12] CrystalMath what?
[13:12] CrystalMath US, russia, and china
[13:12] CrystalMath they would have equal power
[13:12] MinceR if former president Traffic Cone of Treason wins again, there will not be an independent US
[13:12] CrystalMath why?
[13:12] MinceR and either orcland will become a red chinese colony, or possibly (if former president Bunker Bitch wins) the other way around
[13:13] MinceR because he's openly subservient to putler
[13:13] MinceR and he already did everything he could to compromise democracy in the USA
[13:13] MinceR he also threatened to dismantle the NATO
[13:13] CrystalMath where "democracy" means that even though the vast majority of americans opposes critical race theory, it's forced upon kids in schools
[13:13] CrystalMath *oppose
[13:13] MinceR if former president Cheeto Hitler wins again, that will likely be the last free election the USA ever had
[13:14] CrystalMath that's the kind of democracy you believe in

[13:15] CrystalMath you ignore the greatest evil this planet has ever seen
[13:15] CrystalMath because "the right wing media" is the only one pointing to it
[13:15] CrystalMath ridiculous
[13:15] MinceR funny how quickly you've gone from "it's forced" to "they're not gonna back down"
[13:15] frog besides, ideology such as CRT is entangled and conflated with an anti-democratic, anti-liberal, totalitarian and corrupt regime
[13:15] CrystalMath MinceR: biden will not back down
[13:16] CrystalMath and not just with that crp
[13:16] CrystalMath *crap
[13:16] CrystalMath you're gonna get ALL the feminism and ALL the Schwab stuff
[13:16] frog hence any opposition to the regime, is diverted back to the supposed "ideologies", who aligned with this regime, for individual benefit
[13:16] MinceR they make up all sorts of shit at OAN and fox noise, you watch it and you believe every letter of it
[13:17] MinceR also, i had the misfortune of getting to watch a ruscist dismantle democracy up real close
[13:17] MinceR because it happened here in 2010
[13:18] CrystalMath oh, that's right, you won't feel the horror of the crap you're serving to americans
[13:18] CrystalMath because Orbn will protect you
[13:18] CrystalMath but you will spit on him while he does so

[13:19] MinceR the only thing that's protecting me is putler's inability to support his military to come as far as Kyiv
[13:20] MinceR orban compromised hungary's NATO membership, so i can't really count on the NATO to defend me
[13:20] MinceR hungary's own military is laughable
[13:20] MinceR it probably wouldn't even be able to stand up to the unclothed, unwashed orcs that manage to walk here with rusty AK-s
[13:20] frog MinceR: yesterday hungary's soccer team had, almost, beaten german team
[13:20] MinceR who gives a fuck about soccer?
[13:21] frog MinceR: Orban
[13:21] MinceR soccer is probably the most boring game ever invented
[13:21] MinceR orban can go fuck himself
[13:21] MinceR he can also go fuck all of his hobbies
[13:22] frog i have some sympathies, for sports clubs, who are NOT drowning in cash, and compete against the billionaries of the "german" national soccer team
[13:22] MinceR again, who gives a fuck
[13:22] MinceR it's a waste of money and resources
[13:22] frog i didn't watch the match
[13:22] MinceR a bunch of dumbasses stand around doing nothing for 90 fucking minutes
[13:22] MinceR and sometimes pretend to be grievously injured by being looked at
[13:23] MinceR occasionally they walk back and forth with a ball
[13:23] MinceR if they're not hungarian
[13:23] MinceR for hungarian soccer players, that would be too much effort
[13:24] MinceR the only reason a hungarian team could occasionally do well is that orban wastes massive amounts of taxpayer money on hiring and paying foreigner players
[13:24] MinceR while hyperinflation is coming to hungary
[13:25] MinceR the alleged "cheap" and "plentiful" gas tainted with ukrainian blood is neither cheap nor plentiful

[13:33] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Russian Volunteer Corps - Wikipedia
[13:33] frog electricity prices in Hungary are among the lowest in Europe, 10cents/kWh, germany it is ~30cents
[13:33] MinceR probably not anymore
[13:34] MinceR i remember reading that the price is a multiple of what it costs to produce the energy at Paks
[13:34] XRevan86 I wonder if CrystalMath can imagine why somebody would fight Putin for the Glory of Russia.
[13:34] frog with heating, the bill i received, is fraudulent beyond imagination... they tax energy which doesn't exist on my account, excessive amounts
[13:34] MinceR i don't think it can be interpreted along orban's "the homeland can not be in opposition" bullshit :>
[13:35] XRevan86 MinceR: What does that mean?
[13:35] frog for the "greater good" of theirs, i don't care, it's cheaper nowadays to burn books for heating, this is the situation, Germany 2022
[13:35] frog an i am not over-exaggerating this
[13:35] MinceR XRevan86: that anyone who is not with the fuhrer is not hungarian, or, in the other case, not russian :>
[13:36] MinceR an inability to consider the good of the country/people from the good of the dictator separately
[13:36] XRevan86 MinceR: Hungary is also plagued with this? I should have known.
[13:36] MinceR indeed
[13:36] MinceR orban copied putler's model
[13:36] MinceR then kaczynski copied it from orban
[13:37] XRevan86 MinceR: Did he ever say "One Volk! One Prsident! One Zeig!"?
[13:38] XRevan86 s/One/Ein/g
[13:39] MinceR not yet
[13:39] MinceR afaik
[13:39] MinceR also, there's some sort of network charge on the price of electricity which was inexplicably hiked a lot this year
[13:40] MinceR presumably in the hopes that people will overlook it when considering the price of electricity
[13:41] frog electricity has one advantage of gas still: you can meter the consumption yourself
[13:41] frog with the gas-grid, you can't
[13:41] XRevan86 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_meter
[13:41] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Gas meter - Wikipedia
[13:41] frog over gas
[13:41] frog XRevan86: i am not operating this grid, nor the heater nor the metering
[13:42] frog it's sealed behind a heavy door down in the basement
[13:42] XRevan86 frog: But ye said it in general terms.
[13:42] XRevan86 frog: Meanwhile it's actually *your* problem.
[13:42] frog with this installation, they could sell 1liter of petrol for 100euros, and say that's fine, it's "market"
[13:42] XRevan86 frog: Ye do that a lot: conflate your personal problems with the state of the world.
[13:42] frog XRevan86: my consumption is that low, i am not that heavily hit by this fraud, not yet
[13:43] XRevan86 I have a gas meter.
[13:44] frog i want to be disconnected from the gas-grid, and all balancing sheet positions removed from the bill
[13:44] frog i do NOT accept a price of 1hot bath for ~100Euros, a hat bath i had not taken in 5years
[13:44] frog *hot

[13:45] CrystalMath XRevan86: it's not hard, people brainwashed with iPhones and shiny western stuff
[13:45] frog imagine if, you fueled your car at the petrol station, claiming it was 50liters, and instead they only pump 5liters into the vehicle, and ask twice the price on top for 50liters
[13:45] frog this is what they do currently
[13:46] MinceR i'm glad i don't have hypePhones
[13:46] MinceR and my shiny stuff is eastern :>
[13:46] XRevan86 https://atgas.ru/images/products/small/4e50617a1884e713.jpg Here's how a Russian gas meter looks like.
[13:46] frog then they say, the price for 50liters, it's not that bad, however, forget to mention it was only 5liters
[13:46] CrystalMath XRevan86: also they are nazis, apparently
[13:47] frog furthermore, then they say, germany supposedly consumed too much, and emitted too much carbon...
[13:47] frog question, based on whose calcuation and which data?
[13:48] frog situation is, since the walls are rotting from fungus, and i have to burn books for heating next
[13:48] CrystalMath huh, early polls show only about 60% people want DPR to be a part of russia
[13:48] CrystalMath if it's that low in DPR, kherson may actually fail its referendum
[13:49] CrystalMath but these are very early results
[13:50] XRevan86 "people brainwashed with iPhones and shiny western stuff" "also they are nazis, apparently" <- Pick one %).
[13:50] CrystalMath XRevan86: idk, i know some guy who is gay and a nazi on IRC
[13:50] CrystalMath and yes he's pro-ukraine
[13:51] CrystalMath he both likes shiny western stuff and the "brotherhood" or germanic nations
[13:51] CrystalMath *of
[13:51] XRevan86 But yes, like I said earlier today, there are neo-Nazis fighting for either side.
[13:51] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Germanic nations? That's not a very relevant neo-Nazi, eh.
[13:52] CrystalMath Denis Pushilin voted for joining russia
[13:52] XRevan86 CrystalMath: "kherson may actually fail its referendum" <- It won't.
[13:53] frog watching parliament debate, again they say, it was supposedly "energy saved"... wrong.
[13:53] CrystalMath with a million people total, and we know at least 400k hate russia...
[13:53] frog energy which i did not consume and is billed regardless cannot be saved.
[13:54] XRevan86 These "referendums" are not transparent, they're not going to produce the undesired result.
[13:56] MinceR and now the other nazi starts trying to distract by pinning the "nazi" label on everyone else
[13:56] MinceR how predictable
[13:59] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Do ye know how this "referendum" is going to go? Worse than this: https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/08/12/17-1-million-stuffed-ballots

● Sep 23
[14:00] MinceR they know putler is going to do the exact same thing
[14:00] XRevan86 frog: It would've been weird if it were considered illegitimate only if no one likes the outcome.
[14:01] frog i do agree, a regular federal election, which Minsk agreement insisted, under normal circuumstances, is different
[14:01] XRevan86 It's illegitimate because of the bogus procedure, exclusion of the part of the population from participation, the violation of sovereign law of Ukraine, and I'm probably forgetting something else.
[14:02] frog i mean, this "international community", rejects international law and negotiations now? in advance of any election result announced?
[14:02] XRevan86 frog: This "referendum" is *not* in accordance to international law. In advance, regardless of the result.
[14:03] frog XRevan86: minsk agreement _is_ the legal frame of international law itself
[14:03] XRevan86 frog: Minsk agreement doesn't even allow a referendum to join Russia.
[14:04] frog question is, if any such referendum fullfilled it, the demands for federal elections
[14:04] XRevan86 Federalisation != ability to secede
[14:04] MinceR > probably forgetting something else.
[14:04] MinceR there's the whole "at gunpoint" thing
[14:05] MinceR and if it's like crimea, then even the set of options is going to be fraudulent
[14:05] frog XRevan86: slightly disagree, in any case, the _central_ governement in Kiev has no authority over federal election results
[14:05] frog federal states, elect their governors, themselves
[14:06] XRevan86 frog: So California can elect Putin as their governor?
[14:06] XRevan86 Didn't know that's an option.
[14:06] frog besides, "international community" has no authority over federal election results either, in opposition to the "right of self-determination"

[14:08] CrystalMath some people love communism and believe it to be freedom

[14:09] XRevan86 frog: It's not about the governors, it's about annexation of the territory by Russia.
[14:09] CrystalMath MinceR: no the problem is that they are denied the right to secede if they want to make a communist country
[14:09] MinceR also, none of those things are free
[14:09] CrystalMath MinceR: look, this is what's in their heads, they don't want to not be free
[14:09] frog XRevan86: _central_ government in Kiev (a Chunta), has no authority over _federal_ states either
[14:09] MinceR CrystalMath: the territories you keep harping about do _not_ want to "make a communist country", or even really "secede"
[14:10] MinceR CrystalMath: putler wants to _annex_ them to _orcland_
[14:10] MinceR that is not independence and that is not making new countries
[14:10] CrystalMath DPR and LPR people actually use communist flags all the time
[14:10] CrystalMath and call people "comrade"
[14:10] XRevan86 frog: _Central_ government in Moscow (a Junta), has all the authority over _federal_ states.
[14:10] MinceR and vladolf dreams about restoring the USSR
[14:10] MinceR so what else is new?
[14:10] XRevan86 Putin is not a Communist, for the record.
[14:11] scientes -TechPolBot/#techpol- (@henkvaness): "We invite all Russian citizens to vote in our referendum to become part of the Netherlands. #Russia #RussiaUkraineWar #UkraineRussiaWar #Ukraine #UkraineInvasion (share!) Via @arjenlubach"|nitter.it
[14:11] CrystalMath XRevan86: it's so tight that kadyrov once said that FSB agents aren't allowed in chechnya without permission
[14:11] scientes XRevan86, heh
[14:11] MinceR he, like any modern ruscist, is both a nazi and a stalinist
[14:11] scientes XRevan86, there was also a Chomsky-led movie about Basque entering confederate helvetica (switzerland)
[14:11] MinceR the likes of united russia, fideath and the CPC are getting along very well
[14:11] CrystalMath MinceR: but if they join russia, they won't have their communist dream
[14:11] scientes that was making fun of those stupid catalans
[14:11] MinceR CrystalMath: tell them, then.
[14:11] XRevan86 CrystalMath: Yes, he did.
[14:11] scientes actually, I have no evience of the link
[14:11] MinceR but they won't have it anyway.
[14:12] scientes but it wouldn't suprise me
[14:12] MinceR nobody has ever managed to implement what you're talking about
[14:12] MinceR every time it invariably led to stalinism
[14:12] MinceR and putler's system is a descendant of stalinism
[14:12] scientes MinceR, you have no idea what you are talking about
[14:12] scientes MinceR, maybe you should move to russia
[14:12] MinceR besides, it's really pointless to try and nitpick about the differences in totalitarian systems, since they all come from the whims of the rulers
[14:13] MinceR scientes: no, you should move to orcland if you love it so much
[14:13] XRevan86 MinceR: He did %)
[14:13] CrystalMath is scientes not there?
[14:13] MinceR and once putler shuts down internet connectivity to the outside, you won't be able to bother us anymore.
[14:13] CrystalMath yeah, scientes doesn't just talk, he is actually there now
[14:13] MinceR CrystalMath: why are you not there?
[14:13] CrystalMath because i'm slowly moving to mexico
[14:13] CrystalMath at a speed of 1mm/year
[14:13] MinceR why won't all the authoritarians just move to the already existing authoritarian states instead of trying to fuck up the rest of the planet?
[14:14] MinceR there's plenty of space in siberia for all of you
[14:14] CrystalMath MinceR: i think we once talked about it, and i found out that you would want to invade any place i go to
[14:14] MinceR it will even thaw soon, thanks to vladolf's efforts
[14:14] *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techpol
[14:14] frog allright, let's summarize, what this "international community" insists on: weapons supplies, no elections, in violation of "international law"/minsk agreement which demands cease fire, retreat and elections.
[14:14] MinceR CrystalMath: what else have you dreamed?
[14:14] MinceR and aggi is lying as usual
[14:14] CrystalMath MinceR: maybe it was someone else?
[14:15] MinceR could be

[14:15] XRevan86 https://nitter.it/TpyxaNews/status/1573296815272873987 There's something special about that it's the people like Semyon Pegov (WarGonzo) that publish this.
[14:15] -TechPolBot/#techpol-English (@TpyxaNews): "Referendum in Donetsk"|nitter.it
[14:16] XRevan86 MinceR: "to the already existing authoritarian states" <- There's a flaw in your plan: authoritarian states tend to collapse.
[14:17] scientes XRevan86, and Putin said that in his 2007 Munich speech
[14:17] MinceR XRevan86: not my problem
[14:17] scientes right next to Angela Merkel, who folded to the gay
[14:17] scientes (not unexpectedly)
[14:17] XRevan86 scientes: That authoritarian states tend to collapse?
[14:17] MinceR XRevan86: stalinism has led to the collapse of any state that held itself to it strictly. does this stop stalinists from wanting to try over and over again? no.
[14:18] CrystalMath XRevan86: especially when F-16s bomb them
[14:18] CrystalMath XRevan86: but very rarely when they have nukes
[14:18] scientes it was in English, let me look it up
[14:18] XRevan86 scientes: That does seem like something he'd say.
[14:18] CrystalMath XRevan86: example, North Korea
[14:18] XRevan86 Over the years Putin has condemned many things that he will later do.
[14:19] MinceR just like fideath
[14:19] MinceR a few months ago they were poking fun at europeans thinking about lowering heating in public institutions to 19C
[14:20] MinceR recently they announced that they would lower heating in public institutions... to 18C
[14:20] XRevan86 Putin said that overstaying in office is bad and evil. Putin said that he would never change the Constitution. Putin said that extending the retirement age is something he'd never do.
[14:21] MinceR in the april "elections", fidSS campaigned with the allegation that if the opposition won, they'd eliminate their utilities cost reduction program
[14:22] MinceR something they'd never do.
[14:22] MinceR and orban said that his subservience to putler is the only way we can have low utilities cost
[14:22] MinceR recently, they've pretty much ended the utilities cost reduction program
[14:24] scientes XRevan86, ok it was this:
[14:24] scientes It is world in which there is one master, one sovereign. And at the end of the day this is pernicious not only for all those within this system, but also for the sovereign itself because it destroys itself from within.
[14:25] scientes so good I looked it up
[14:25] MinceR i'm sure they'd pretend that some of their underlings are sovereign
[14:25] scientes what he is saying is certainly true of the US
[14:25] MinceR they'd pretend that orban was not ordered around by putler
[14:25] scientes that sentence
[14:25] MinceR or (after orcland's fall) that putler was not ordered around by xi jinping
[14:26] MinceR some people would even believe it
[14:26] scientes MinceR, yeah, is Putin Winnie the Pooh?
[14:26] scientes Egor?
[14:26] XRevan86 Russia is the place where the men born under Putin can die for Putin.

[14:27] XRevan86 Putin is the only reality they've ever known.
[14:27] scientes XRevan86, same happened with Bush
[14:27] XRevan86 scientes: Sr. and Jr.?
[14:27] scientes ecept that he didn't actually make the decisions
[14:27] scientes so it is woorse
[14:27] scientes and what about places with monarchs?
[14:27] scientes what about all the people that were born and died under Elizabeth II?
[14:28] scientes or George VI?
[14:28] scientes or Fhillip VI?
[14:28] XRevan86 scientes: Not great.
[14:28] MinceR people seem to generally believe that elizabeth II had no real power at all
[14:28] MinceR which is incorrect
[14:28] MinceR but in reality, the extent of the monarch's power in the UK seems unclear
[14:28] scientes and why the hell did that japaneese princess get courted with involvement of someone with no ties at all to japan?
[14:29] XRevan86 https://bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-09-23/putin-readies-43-defense-spending-hike-amid-plan-for-longer-war?leadSource=uverify%20wall
[14:29] -TechPolBot/#techpol-Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
[14:29] MinceR for example, if the monarch dissolved parliament because they disagreed, would the parliament obey or would they depose the monarch and announce the republic?
[14:29] scientes MinceR, well they can't be very good when you have a fruitcake on the throne!!!!
[14:29] frog "annexion", too is a weird interpretation, given the fact, Russians already lived there long before
[14:29] MinceR lol
[14:29] XRevan86 "Putin Readies 43% Defence Spending Hike Amid Plan for Longer War"
[14:29] scientes frog, and they still live there
[14:29] scientes and they have always lived there
[14:29] frog and what would the alternative be, to the referendum? none at all, and Kiev central government dictating?
[14:29] MinceR frog: ok, then i guess i'll annex germany. hungarians already live there.
[14:29] frog Minsk agreement insisted on _federal_ elections, independent from the central government
[14:30] scientes frog, have you wanted the videos about the coups and also the succession of Lugansk and Donetsk?
[14:30] scientes I saw the same type of shit in Batumi
[14:30] MinceR the Budapest Memorandum insisted that orcland has no territorial demands of ukraine
[14:30] scientes in Batumi the old-style ATMsdon't need armed guards, but the new ones do
[14:30] MinceR so what the fuck are their terrorists doing in ukraine?
[14:31] scientes MinceR, blowing shit up with NATO weapons
[14:31] XRevan86 https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/09/23/russia-to-conscript-up-to-1-2-million-people "Source: Russia to conscript 1.2 million people"

[14:31] MinceR scientes: also, what the fuck are you talking about?
[14:31] scientes MinceR, plenty
[14:32] scientes MinceR, the difference is that the old-style are the maffia ones, and they don't hook up to visa and mastercard
[14:32] scientes (or Mir for that matter)
[14:32] MinceR ic
[14:32] scientes also UnionPay got pushed out of Georgia while I was there
[14:32] scientes fucking fascists
[14:32] scientes the hypocricy of the liberals knows no limits
[14:32] frog the problem i see is this, the Kiev _central_ government and their "international community" have no authority over the mentioned oblasts and their elections
[14:33] MinceR the problem i see is that there are too many fucking authoritarian people on this planet
[14:33] MinceR and they can never settle for fucking up their own lives, they've also got to fuck up mine
[14:33] frog the federal states may participate in _national_ elections of Ukraine still, yet at the federal election level Zelenskij and his "international community" has exactly that much authority: Zero
[14:33] scientes frog, also no gold
[14:34] scientes they have already robbed the country blind
[14:34] scientes vultures
[14:34] frog scientes: who?
[14:34] scientes I am sure they sent it to china
[14:34] scientes to satisify CHomsky heroin addiction (fentanyl)
[14:37] MinceR fentanyl is not heroin
[14:37] scientes MinceR, they both are neutralize by nalozone
[14:38] MinceR pretty much everything on earth would be neutralized by a black hole
[14:39] scientes MinceR, what about a really small black hole?
[14:40] MinceR less likely
[14:40] scientes and what about Hawking radiation?
[14:40] scientes which makes black holes much less black
[14:40] scientes and more like grey holes or something
[14:41] MinceR :)
[14:41] MinceR not really, it just makes them evaporate and shrink
[14:42] MinceR it's insignificant next to the radiation emitted by the accretion disk, usually
[14:42] frog scientes: which videos?

[17:21] schestowitz[tr3] organised by a violent occupier
[17:21] schestowitz[tr3] rapist to rape victim:
[17:22] schestowitz[tr3] are you OK with [something here]?
[17:25] frog on TV they showed, russian soldiers protected voters, and seek to reach _all_ inhabitants by visiting their homes
[17:25] frog to vote, either yes or no;
[17:25] frog the question, with regards to the "referendum" won't be, if the "international community" recognized it
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] lol
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] tv?
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] or rt?
[17:26] frog no phoenix.de
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] so they attack a city
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] and then protect it?
[17:26] schestowitz[tr3] after attacking it?
[17:26] XRevan86 they say: "voting at gunpoint", we say: "protected voters"
[17:27] frog the question will be, how the minority vote will be coped with, because a legitimate/democractic referendum _must_ recognize minority interests
[17:27] frog assuming if, the "No" votes accumulate to 30% or something, or less such as 5%, even then, the minority has to be protected and represented with their interests
[17:28] frog and this is an important criteria, to recognize the referendum or not
[17:28] XRevan86 https://nitter.it/JuliaDavisNews/status/1573307467337191426 Come on, Julia, why didn't ye link to the Meduza's article?
[17:28] -TechPolBot/#techpol-Julia Davis (@JuliaDavisNews): "This is their mindset, no doubt. See below for my Tweet from May."|nitter.it
[17:33] frog assuming if, the referendum was reasonable (Minsk agreement), how else should any referendum be arranged
[17:34] frog as many voters as possible must vote, for a sufficient legitimacy, and to my knowledge the Kiev Junta was neither willing to nor capable of any referendum and protecting voters
[17:35] frog the alternative, to the referendum, whatever you think of it, could be worse, than none thereof, with endless disputes and aggressions
[17:35] XRevan86 A lot of the population is currently busy being refugees.
[17:35] XRevan86 Not exactly able to participate in this nonsense.
[17:36] frog XRevan86: another argument, to support a referendum, to count the inhabitants, and estimate who is missing
[17:36] frog or, whoever else may wish to vote, and couldn't before... what would they fear, Zelenskij, and his "international community", whoever they are
[17:38] frog instead of sabotaging the referendum, "international community" and their shareholders too could have supported it, insisting democratic rules were complied with, and voters being protected
[17:38] frog too, Zelesnkij could have said this, he didn't.
[17:38] XRevan86 "insisting democratic rules were complied with" <- I have an incredibly simple but effective counter-argument.
[17:38] XRevan86 frog: Look at the elections in Russia.
[17:39] frog instead, in violation of Minsk agreement, and in violation of international law, this "international community" agitates for weapons supplies
[17:39] XRevan86 They are internationally recognised and everything, but eventually all the international and independent observers were pushed away and it's all a big sham.
[17:39] frog XRevan86: just have a look at EU elections, and how "madame president Ursula" was "elected"
[17:40] frog or Madame Merkel, having lost, 2017 already, and remaining in office another 4 years, 16 years in total
[17:41] frog i do agree, the election must be observed, and in particular how the minority vote is treated

[17:45] XRevan86 frog: Is this how "madame president Ursula" was "elected"?
[17:45] frog XRevan86: i don't watch youtube videos
[17:45] XRevan86 frog: I can upload it to catbox.moe, will that be suitable to your sensitive disposition?
[17:46] frog madame president was never elected by anyone in Europe
[17:46] frog XRevan86: i do know how madame ursula was "elected"
[17:46] XRevan86 frog: And I know how elections are conducted in Russia.
[17:46] frog all i am saying is, judge russian federation by the same standards
[17:47] XRevan86 frog: All I am saying is, democratic procedure was never an option, the votes will be counted the way that is suitable to Putin.
[17:47] XRevan86 It's an objective fact.
[17:48] frog even then, this doesn't change the fact, there is a minority living in eastern urkaine, and the treatment of this minority and their interests
[17:48] frog this is the criteria, i would propose instead
[17:48] XRevan86 The "referendum" has nothing to do with the people living in Ukraine.
[17:49] XRevan86 And odds are, after the "referendum" is done, the men from there will be grabbed and sent to the front to die.
[17:49] frog because, given my memories, about 1990, and treatment of minorities by "EU" and the "international community", those have no word to say about any "referendum" anymore
[17:49] frog reminder, in east germany, there wasn't none
[17:50] frog instead, they replaced all leading political staff, with western minions, replaced all university rectorates with western minions
[17:50] frog expropriated the entire industry, etc. etc. etc.
[17:50] frog and by those exact same standards, i will, judge for myself, what to think about this referendum in Ukraine
[17:51] XRevan86 frog: Ye will judge and they will die.
[17:52] frog "the men from there will be grabbed and sent to the front to die"
[17:53] MinceR 23 182517 < frog> on TV they showed, russian soldiers protected voters, and seek to reach _all_ inhabitants by visiting their homes
[17:53] MinceR translation: russian soldiers were present to force everyone to vote putler's way
[17:54] XRevan86 No one promised the secrecy of voting.
[17:54] XRevan86 And it's pretty hard to vote secretly on a bench regardless.
[17:54] frog are there any observers in this region?
[17:54] XRevan86 frog: United Russia
[17:55] XRevan86 In some places.

[17:57] XRevan86 > On the first day of voting, occupation authorities will open a small number of polling stations and mobilize pro-annexation residents there. This, the sources said, will allow Russias propaganda outlets to disseminate photos of long lines of people waiting to vote, suggesting a high turnout. These kinds of images have already appeared in the Russian state media.
[17:58] XRevan86 Yes, I've even posted some here.
[17:58] XRevan86 > In the DNR and LNR: about 90 percent of voters supporting annexation, with a turnout of about 90 percent
[17:58] XRevan86 > In the occupied territories of the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions: about 90 percent of voters supporting annexation, with a turnout of about 80 percent
[17:59] XRevan86 We'll see, I thought they'd go for more conservative numbers in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions.
[17:59] MinceR did you expect the empire of the 146% to go for conservative numbers?
● Sep 23
[18:00] XRevan86 MinceR: When the whole thing was still in brainstorm mode they were planning 70/70.
[18:00] MinceR :>
[18:01] XRevan86 > One of the sources also said that the Kremlin isnt counting on the annexation increasing domestic support for the Russian authorities: Most people dont give a fuck about the Donbas. People are worried about mobilization right now.
[18:01] XRevan86 Factual.
[18:12] frog MinceR: i am not aware yet, Russians forced anyone to vote "yes", and i mean exactly what i say, i do not know of anyone.
[18:12] frog that's why, it is important to observe, how any minority vote was treated, even when, it is 20% of the population who said "no".
[18:13] frog an too, thats the reason why, any iregularities may be less releven, if, and only if, the minority is respected with their decision.
[18:13] frog *relevant
[18:23] MinceR 23 191214 < frog> MinceR: i am not aware yet, Russians forced anyone to vote "yes", and i mean exactly what i say, i do not know of anyone.
[18:23] MinceR oh, they didn't tell you? there's a shocker!
[18:24] MinceR obviously, if vladolf didn't brag about something, it didn't happen.
[18:24] frog no, i haven't been there, to observe the referendum myself, and i do not trust the "international community" propaganda rubbish
[18:24] MinceR no, you trust the ruscist propaganda rubbish
[18:25] frog the exact same "international community" who proposes "weapons supplies" and denying elections, in VIOLATION of the minsk agreement, which is the legally binding international contract
[18:25] MinceR and you're unable to even reason about what is in certain people's interest to say, or not to say
[18:25] MinceR and what is the budapest memorandum? decoration on toilet paper?
[18:25] MinceR also, i get the impression that you are seriously challenged when it comes to understanding the minsk agreement
[18:28] frog Putin himself cited UN charta chapter 51, although i too admit international law and the UN charta as a whole apply then
[18:29] MinceR and you believe every word that comes out of his piehole
[18:29] frog of cause not
[18:29] MinceR ah, so you only pretend to do so, to waste our time
[18:29] frog however, russian reporting is almost absent here, in "EU" with it's "free press"
[18:30] frog currently, i am waiting for a build job to finish... and am not occupied until it passed
[18:30] frog in parallel i am reading newspaper, and follow daily reporting
[18:30] frog and this channel now.
[18:31] MinceR yeah, i can see how "absent" it is, with several IRC channels being clogged with it, and the hungarian (EU member) party-state propaganda machinery ("media") shouting it on every channel
[18:31] MinceR poor little vladolf, his voice is not heard
[18:32] MinceR it's like that time when the poor, powerless, little president of the USA was oppressed and couldn't get his voice heard
[18:32] MinceR how the fuck am i supposed to have sympathy for such lying, sociopathic, subhuman monsters?
[18:32] frog allright, i mean it, the speeches of Biden are broadcasted in full length often, even on german tv
[18:32] frog Putin isn't
[18:32] frog yes, this is exactly, what it is.
[18:33] MinceR i have yet to see a single speech of biden being spammed on this IRC network
[18:33] MinceR maybe i'm not in the right channels?
[18:33] MinceR i have also yet to see a single speech of biden being broadcast in hungary
[18:33] frog in germany they are, on phoenix.de channel
[18:33] frog too, yesterday, they broadcasted the "UN security council" meeting in full length
[18:34] MinceR did someone force poor little aggi to watch it?
[18:34] MinceR was it so moving that you almost changed your religion?
[18:34] frog well, how should i say, it opened my eyes, again, what to think of this "international community"
[18:34] MinceR i'm sure
[18:50] XRevan86 "in VIOLATION of the minsk agreement, which is the legally binding international contract" <- And again, none of this has any relation to the Minsk agreements whatsoever. I think even CrystalMath would agree.
[18:51] XRevan86 "however, russian reporting is almost absent here" <- It's not, ye just don't visit the links.
[18:51] MinceR he's not consistent so i wouldn't trust him even with that
[18:51] frog Minsk agreement 1) retreat, of weapons, cease fire. 2) elections, to keep it brief
[18:51] frog in comparison "international community" "weapons supplies for ukraine"
[18:52] frog another one, "international community" "we won't recognize the referendum"
[18:52] frog it is a sham, even when it hasn't started yet
[18:52] MinceR there's no referendum to recognize
[18:52] *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@58nejqa2kp9h2.irc) has joined #techpol
[18:52] XRevan86 frog: Minsk agreements talked about re-elections in Ukraine after reintegration of "DPR"/"LPR" back into Ukraine.
[18:53] XRevan86 Besides, they're null and void after the invasion anyway.
[18:53] XRevan86 There's literally no point in talking about Minsk agreements in anything but past tense.
[18:55] XRevan86 frog: If ye can't understand that, think of it this way: they're called Minsk *agreements* because Ukraine and Russia *agreed* on them.
[18:55] XRevan86 Ukraine literally would never agree to what ye are suggesting they did.
[18:56] frog Zelesnkij, is NOT ukraine
[18:56] frog and the "international community" is not ukraine either
[18:56] XRevan86 Poroshenko's administration would agree to annexation?
[18:56] MinceR neither are you
[18:56] MinceR and neither is putler
[18:56] frog in Donbas, election results were... remember?
[18:57] MinceR was that election a referendum on whether to self-annex to russia?
[18:57] XRevan86 MinceR: frog is trying to tell us that in 2014 and 2015 Ukraine agreed to a clause that can lead to Russia annexing 15% of its territory.
[18:58] MinceR XRevan86: hard to believe
[18:58] XRevan86 MinceR: Because it only exists in his delusioned mind.
[18:58] MinceR XRevan86: but it is in line with the rest of aggi's lies

[19:00] frog another prognosis is this: "Putin will continue if he wins" N. Roettgen, Atlantic Bridge
[19:00] XRevan86 MinceR: The crazy thing is that this is so stupid even Russia is not trying to make this argument.
[19:00] XRevan86 MinceR: And Russia's approach to argumentation is "everything goes".
[19:01] MinceR XRevan86: you can see that orcland has munchkins to do it for them
[19:02] MinceR all day, every day, even on holidays
[19:02] XRevan86 Russia's high ranking officials were talking about the development of viruses of sterilisation, but even they never interpreted the Minsk agreements this way.
[19:02] MinceR frog: that's a pointless prognosis, as he has already lost
[19:02] MinceR his economy is gone, the richer half of the world has turned its back on him, many of the subjects fled, he's feeding the rest into a blender

[20:09] XRevan86 Regardless, that's not true. It's the whole package.
[20:10] MinceR it's probably the same bullshit as the Crimea ones

[20:12] XRevan86 MinceR: It's in Russian and Ukrainian (both) anyway.
[20:13] MinceR at least they can say "no" this time
[20:14] MinceR i guess they realized that it looks better and people won't dare do it with the warm AK barrel pressed against their temples anyway
[20:14] XRevan86 MinceR: Secrecy is not ensured.
[20:14] XRevan86 MinceR: Pretty much.

[20:16] *starstreak (~starstreak@muarsy2vret2q.irc) has joined #techpol
[20:16] MinceR understandable
[20:16] MinceR the only thing that i wonder about is why didn't they leave already?
[20:16] XRevan86 "DPR"/"LPR" are already mobilised, so nothing new there.
[20:16] XRevan86 MinceR: They're trying, it's not an easy feat.
[20:17] XRevan86 The route is to Crimea and then to Georgia.
[20:17] MinceR it would have been a lot less painful to just have everyone leave ukraine to the west, nuke orcland into nonexistence, occupy what's left of orcland, let the people move back and set up the extraction of fossil fuels from orcland to the west.
[20:18] XRevan86 MinceR: I hope ye are not in any decision making position %)
[20:18] MinceR oh, also, round up and kill every orcish soldier in ukraine, of course
[20:18] MinceR important step
[20:18] MinceR sadly i am not
[20:18] MinceR so instead we have hundreds of thousands being ground up slowly and genocides
[20:19] MinceR and most likely putler will manage to strike first with nuclear weapons
[20:19] MinceR which will be _very_ costly and painful for everyone else
[20:19] XRevan86 MinceR: Remember when people feared he'd using a tactical nuke against Mariupol?
[20:20] MinceR he's been constantly saber-rattling for decades
[20:20] MinceR but he also sounded like someone who's deluded enough to believe he could possibly win
[20:20] MinceR i expect that eventually he'll realize that he lost and then what he talked about will be put into action

[20:20] MinceR i would hope the west doesn't wait for this to happen
[20:21] MinceR but considering their usual dickless approach, they will
[20:21] MinceR then again, the defense mechanisms could technically work
[20:21] XRevan86 MinceR: Of course they should be more firm, but your way is too firm.
[20:21] MinceR and it's possible that putler's nuclear arsenal is as functional as his military
[20:21] MinceR i would hope the west has better intel to work with
[20:22] MinceR where the orcish nuclear arsenal is, how much of it exists, how workable is it
[20:22] MinceR where their ICBM launching subs are
[20:22] MinceR also, desperate situations call for desperate measures
[20:23] XRevan86 A horde of mobilised men is a more tangible threat, but even that unlikely to be unmanageable by Ukraine.
[20:23] MinceR if a country threatens the rest of the world with nuclear annihilation, it must be annihilated
[20:23] MinceR the horde of mobilized men will probably be turned into hamburger

[20:30] MinceR it would, but determining putler's location is difficult
[20:30] -TechPolBot/#techpol-portal.mozz.us | Gemini Portal
[20:30] DaemonFC Russia will exempt "some men with white collar jobs".
[20:30] DaemonFC Yeah, send the poors.
[20:30] XRevan86 And the cost of failure is high.
[20:30] MinceR and if they know where putler is, i can't understand why they haven't killed or captured him yet
[20:31] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Exactly right.
[20:31] DaemonFC That's how the US did Vietnam.
[20:31] DaemonFC Just dump all the people who would work at retail stores and factories into the war instead. There's a surplus of them anyway. Actually, it'd be really great if you can just hand the blacks a gun. We don't really need any of those coming back, right?
[20:32] DaemonFC That was what happened. Iraq and Afghanistan too.
[20:33] DaemonFC They knew that as long as it was poor people getting killed most of the country would just ignore the fact that so many were dying. In Vietnam, the mistake was that there was a draft and the draft law technically had to be random or it would be struck down.
[20:33] DaemonFC However, they usually found "alternative service" for the people they didn't want to lose in the war.
[20:34] DaemonFC You'll notice how all the politicians like Bush got "military service" that nobody else ever would have.
[20:34] DaemonFC What happens to a soldier when they're drunk all the time and AWOL?
[20:34] DaemonFC Most don't become the president later.
[20:35] DaemonFC Most get into serious trouble if they're AWOL or drunk even once.
[20:35] frog AWOL?
[20:35] DaemonFC Bush was both constantly and his superiors were ordered that they would ignore it and not take disciplinary action because he was only there to make it look like he was drafted.
[20:36] XRevan86 frog:
[20:36] MinceR Away WithOut Leave, iirc
[20:36] DaemonFC My mom's third husband did a Vietnam veteran pretty bad.
[20:37] DaemonFC He showed up to buy a used refrigerator from the guy, and when we backed the trailer into the guy's driveway, it went in fine.
[20:37] DaemonFC But when we loaded the fridge and drove off with it, the weight was enough that it caused the bottom to scrape a trench into the guy's driveway that he said he had just had paved.
[20:38] DaemonFC So there was this nice long nails on the chalkboard sound and now this guy has a nice 15 foot long trench scraped into his freshly paved drive.
[20:38] DaemonFC And he's just staring at us like "WTF", and Dave drove off.
[20:39] DaemonFC Most Americans who ended up in Vietnam ended up screwed up in the head by what went on over there, and they came back and were never right in the head again.
[20:40] DaemonFC But the US government was basically making the same exact threats that Vladimir Putin does.
[20:40] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Most Russians who ended up in Afghanistan ended up screwed up in the head by what went on over there, and they came back and were never right in the head again.
[20:40] DaemonFC You can go to the Army or we'll put you in prison.
[20:40] DaemonFC 50,000 Americans got their draft cards and responded by fleeing to Canada and claiming asylum.
[20:41] DaemonFC There's still a pretty sizeable American-Canadian population over there from that. Most of them never returned even after the mass pardon.
[20:41] DaemonFC Why would they? They had immigration papers in Canada, some had become Canadian citizens by then.
[20:42] DaemonFC Canada wasn't aghast by having them there. It didn't change the politics of Canada very much. They got a bunch of American war resistors. Most Canadians already didn't like the idea of the Vietnam War very much anyway and welcomed them.
[20:43] DaemonFC So yes, the United States has behaved exactly like Russia is treating Ukraine now.
[20:43] MinceR except the US trained and equipped their military personnel
[20:43] MinceR and fed them
[20:43] DaemonFC It wasn't even that long ago. (The war wasn't declared lost and ended until 20 years in, in the 1970s, and the draft went on for years after that!)
[20:43] MinceR orcland does none of those things
[20:44] frog i don't see the parallel between USA and Russia in this case, except for military drafts
[20:44] DaemonFC Yes, that is the difference. At least in the American army, you get proper food, equipment, modern weapons and plenty of ammunition.
[20:44] DaemonFC The Russian Army is third rate in every sense of the word, and thank God for that or they might have won this thing by now.
[20:45] frog and you're sure russian military wasn't equipped and trained? don't think so. the professional military in russia is limited in numbers, and expensive.
[20:45] MinceR probably even paid them
[20:45] DaemonFC But even though the US military is technologically vastly superior and better trained and equipped than any other in the world....
[20:45] MinceR frog: read ZOV
[20:45] DaemonFC We still lose wars.
[20:45] DaemonFC So Putin has lost his mind for sure.
[20:45] XRevan86 MinceR: He said he did. And he still wrote that
[20:45] frog and those forced into conscriptiong, in Russia, may not be sent abroad, something in the constitution, conscription was intended for homeland defense, not any service abroad
[20:45] DaemonFC Throwing some conscripts and prisoners that you're not even feeding into a war that's about to go into a winter stretch is not going to be a victory.
[20:46] MinceR frog: are you trying to tell us you believe putler gives a single fuck about any constitution?
[20:47] XRevan86 Conscripts are not sent to war right now (mostly).
[20:47] DaemonFC You don't win wars mostly by fighting. You win them with planning. You win wars by not losing them. By dragging them out. By waiting for your enemies to commit mistakes and ambushing them and making them take heavy losses compared with what it cost you.
[20:48] XRevan86 But funny thing, soon the conscripts will be demobbed, and after that, immediately mobilised.
[20:48] DaemonFC Bunch of Russians sleeping in a group? At night? Fly a $200 drone over them and drop a grenade.
[20:48] DaemonFC Blow 10 of them up. Even if you lose the drone, you win.
[20:49] DaemonFC The Russians have sustained staggering losses in Ukraine by being badly disorganized and sloppy.
[20:49] DaemonFC In just one incident recently, they had more than 200 soldiers die because of a single HIMARS strike on a building they were using as a barracks.
[20:50] DaemonFC Are a couple missiles worth taking out a barracks? Yep.

[20:50] DaemonFC Of course it's a lie.
[20:50] frog "5,937 Russian servicemen have been killed"
[20:50] DaemonFC The stuff that the US is giving Ukraine actually works.
[20:51] DaemonFC We're not giving them crap artillery shells where half are duds or explode after hitting the ground.
[20:51] DaemonFC But funny thing, soon the conscripts will be demobbed, and after that, immediately mobilised.
[20:52] DaemonFC I read that many conscripts are people who were protesting the war.
[20:52] XRevan86 frog: If ye believe that number, ye haven't followed this war whatsoever.
[20:52] DaemonFC That will end well. Their commanders won't be able to watch them all the time, and many will defect.
[20:52] frog XRevan86: what is your estimate then?

[20:54] XRevan86 That's the most conservative estimate rounded down.

[21:04] DaemonFC A secret ballot, no doubt.
[21:05] DaemonFC The Russians run famously free elections and will roll out immediately if the referendum fails.

[21:06] MinceR maybe their claims would be more credible if they practiced the whole "free and fair voting" thing back at home for a few years
[21:06] MinceR get a feel for it, figure out what it is.
[21:07] MinceR but i'm 146% certain they did no such thing.
[21:07] XRevan86 MinceR: The freaky thing is that back in the "146%" days the elections weren't nearly as rigged as they are now.
[21:07] MinceR :>
[21:11] DaemonFC I like how the US set up the fake elections in Iraq and Afghanistan.
[21:12] DaemonFC You had to dip your finger in ink and if anyone saw ink on your fingers, they know you voted and they murdered you.
[21:13] DaemonFC Then the US media told us that the people were ecstatic about the opportunity to vote in an election.
[21:14] DaemonFC Then the Taliban took the entire country back in about a year as quickly as we pulled out. (Afghanistan)
[21:15] DaemonFC 146% turnout? That's even better than Ohio in 2004.
[21:16] DaemonFC Extend Vladimirovich my congratulations.
[21:16] frog 146% too can indicate population growth
[21:16] frog so, what are you argueing?
[21:17] DaemonFC 146% of registered voters voted?
[21:17] DaemonFC That indicates ballot box stuffing.
[21:17] DaemonFC Not even cautious stuffing with the intent of making it look believable.
[21:17] XRevan86 > Serving random individuals with draft notices might be due to a negligent attitude towards compiling mobilization lists and the extremely tight time frame (the first military training courses are supposed to begin as early as September 26).
[21:17] DaemonFC Like we have in Illinois.
[21:18] DaemonFC They should draft Putin.
[21:18] DaemonFC He came here to do two things. Wear military costumes and grab tables. And he's all out of tables.
[21:19] XRevan86 "146% too can indicate population growth" <- https://ih0.redbubble.net/image.193307344.3142/flat,800x800,075,f.u2.jpg

[21:19] DaemonFC XRevan86, Did you see his televised speech?
[21:19] -TechPolBot/#techpol-commons.wikimedia.org | File:Vladimir Putin Cockpit TU-160 Bomber.jpg - Wikimedia Commons
[21:19] DaemonFC In addition to the usual table death grip, Putin was growling and grinding his teeth.
[21:20] frog DaemonFC> They should draft Putin
[21:20] DaemonFC It seems like he's a few fries short of a "Tasty, and that's it!" meal to me.
[21:20] frog that's designated "Black Jack" by NATO
[21:20] DaemonFC What do you think, MinceR?
[21:20] XRevan86 DaemonFC: I didn't notice anything unusual about that.
[21:21] DaemonFC Some of the sanctions are, of course, ridiculous.
[21:21] DaemonFC Not allowing McDonalds to do business in Russia hurts us, not Russia.
[21:21] DaemonFC McDonalds doesn't have some sort of secret method of cooking a hamburger and some fries that nobody can duplicate.
[21:21] XRevan86 frog: I'll explain: the "146%" meme comes from this TV fsck-up: https://ruxpert.ru/images/3/3a/146%25.jpg
[21:22] DaemonFC Why just the other day, I made cheeseburgets at home with a copycat big mac sauce and shredded lettuce and onions, on poppyseed buns, with some dill pickles.
[21:22] DaemonFC And of course they were higher quality than McDonalds.
[21:22] XRevan86 DaemonFC: No one told McDonalds not to do business in Russia, that's not a direct sanction.
[21:22] DaemonFC The McDonalds model has nothing to do with the secret sauce, which isn't a secret.
[21:23] DaemonFC There's clones for all of their sauces. So that's not it.
[21:23] MinceR 23 222016 < DaemonFC> What do you think, MinceR?
[21:23] MinceR agreed
[21:23] XRevan86 DaemonFC: Ye won't find a sanction paper that says "McDonalds must halt its operations in Russia".
[21:23] DaemonFC Their model has to do with speed and efficiency of service and maintaining quality control so that a burger in Indiana tastes like a burger in California.
[21:23] DaemonFC And they can do that, but it's hard to monopolize that.
[21:24] DaemonFC There are many ways to maintain quality control, but the way McDonalds does it is by lowering the quality to a manageable level that is sustainable no matter where they operate.
[21:24] MinceR lol
[21:25] DaemonFC You get a much better meal at Whataburger in Texas, but they said they haven't expanded because they'd have to turn into fucking McDonalds and they don't want that.
[21:25] MinceR i prefer Burger King to McDonald's, but i'm kind of missing some McDonald's burgers now
[21:25] MinceR i haven't eaten either in years
[21:25] DaemonFC Did they pull out of Orbanistan?
[21:25] MinceR no
[21:25] frog McDonalds isn't anywhere close to some TexMex meals either
[21:26] frog in Bamberg, many US soldiers resided, with one of their restaurants
[21:26] DaemonFC Whataburger is terrific. About the only thing you CAN get from them in Illinois is their ketchup.
[21:26] MinceR at some point, i worked not too far from a place with fast food restaruants and no other restrictions so i'd have fast food for lunch often
[21:26] DaemonFC Which they sell at Texas supermarkets, so I can have it shipped here.
[21:26] frog the restaurant was expensive though
[21:27] DaemonFC I don't know what they do to the ketchup, but it is the best ketchup.

[21:27] MinceR then i worked at a place which paid for my lunch at particular places which weren't fast food restaurants, then i worked mostly from home
[21:27] -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.rferl.org | 'Your Turn To Lie': Former Russian State TV Cameraman Describes 'The Business Of Misinforming Viewers'
[21:27] frog not something, an underling in germany could afford
[21:27] XRevan86 > The instruction came to Rossia-24 from the Kremlin stating what percentage to show for [the pro-Kremlin party] United Russia. The editor asked, "And what about the other parties?" The answer came: "Just show whatever they got." The editor wasn't going to argue with them. After all, the Kremlin knows best. So she did exactly as she was told. And that's how you get 146 percent.
[21:27] XRevan86 frog: ^
[21:27] frog meanwhile, the US Barracks closed there
[21:27] DaemonFC Donald Trump eating McDonalds all the time and actually liking that is indicative of the taste buds of a 5 year old.
[21:28] DaemonFC Which I've noticed seems to be common with pedophiles.
[21:28] XRevan86 frog: That's the story of "146%".
[21:28] MinceR could also be a matter of being used to it early
[21:28] DaemonFC I've personally known a few, and none of them had adult eating habits.
[21:28] frog XRevan86: the fact in Russia such satire is broadcasted on TV, somehow, make it more liberal than the typical elections here
[21:28] DaemonFC They always ate pizza, McDonalds, and ravioli out of a can.
[21:29] DaemonFC McDonalds doesn't do anything exciting with their menu. Every time they do, it's a marketing disaster.
[21:29] XRevan86 frog: How did ye come to this conclusion?
[21:29] DaemonFC They have a "core customer" and they're not looking to expand their tastebuds.
[21:30] XRevan86 Guys, guys, I want everyone to read what frog wrote at 20:28 UTC.
[21:30] DaemonFC MinceR, frozen burgers never turn out the same as fresh.
[21:30] DaemonFC McDonalds freezes theirs to keep spoilage down.
[21:30] frog XRevan86: in germany such a mockery is not possible with any of the typical "official" turnout reports, they wouldn't do it
[21:30] XRevan86 frog: I'll tell you a secret: it was not satire.
[21:30] MinceR DaemonFC: which part of burgers do they freeze?
[21:30] DaemonFC The burger patties. They all come in frozen.
[21:31] MinceR lol @ dismissing it as satire
[21:31] DaemonFC Freezing them does something to the taste and texture, so to bring back the taste, they oversalt them.
[21:31] XRevan86 I think frog got struck with Poe's Law, that this story is so ridiculous he thinks it's a joke.
[21:31] DaemonFC If you tell them don't salt it, they'll oblige, but then the burger tastes like cardboard.
[21:32] DaemonFC MinceR, It wouldn't kill them to back off on the salt, honestly.
[21:32] DaemonFC The FDA is after food companies to cut sodium by 25%.
[21:32] MinceR ic
[21:32] MinceR and that will just make food taste worse
[21:32] DaemonFC Most food is oversalted to the point that a 25% reduction is still plenty.
[21:33] DaemonFC I get the 25% less salt SPAM and it doesn't really taste any different.
[21:33] DaemonFC Regular SPAM is the saltiest thing other than a heaping bowl of salt.
[21:34] DaemonFC MinceR, The landlord was over today and I opened my closet to get something and he did a double take.
[21:34] DaemonFC I've got like 300 pounds of cat food in there.
[21:34] DaemonFC :)
[21:34] MinceR :)
[21:34] DaemonFC I just said "coupons".
[21:35] DaemonFC My cats don't like wet cat food anyway.
[21:35] DaemonFC They'll lick it but they won't eat it.
[21:35] DaemonFC They do like canned tuna every now and then.
[21:36] DaemonFC I was actually relieved to "only" get hit with a $50 rent increase this year.
[21:36] DaemonFC The neighboring apartments are being listed for $1,075 plus electric (everything's electric), but ours goes up to $925.
[21:37] DaemonFC I know better than to cause trouble for the landlord, and a lot of them prefer a known factor to chasing out tenants that are quiet and pay up and then having to paint and fix things up for a new tenant, and advertise, and have the unit off the market for a couple of months.
[21:37] DaemonFC So they mostly just wait and really soak the next people.
[21:39] DaemonFC I explained to him when we were talking about my bankruptcy why I had to throw two landlords into it. I explained Joy and he goes "Oh my God...." and then "What about this other one?". I said, "My ex stayed and finished out the lease and as far as I know I actually didn't owe that one anything, but I included him just in case my ex did do something and try to stick me with it.".
[21:40] DaemonFC It's bad enough I have a car out there with my name on the title that John isn't even renewing the plates on.
[21:40] DaemonFC I try to limit the number of grenades I have to walk around with in my back pocket.
[21:41] DaemonFC Eventually, he's going to get pulled over and slapped with expired tags.
[21:41] DaemonFC Those are not cheap in Washington. That's like a $700 fine and they're not required to let you drive off after they do it. They can tow the car.
[21:42] DaemonFC MinceR, I try not to drive around playing "How many excuses can I give the cops to pull me over and shoot me today?".
[21:42] DaemonFC It'd be nice if the rest of the world was like that.
[21:43] DaemonFC It helps not driving around in a vehicle with an attention-grabbing paint job.
[21:44] DaemonFC You don't want the cops to really take notice of you. If you get their attention by driving a neon green car, then you may wish you had a silver car.
[21:46] DaemonFC If you find a new car that's trying to appeal to young people they come in all sorts of outrageous colors.
[21:47] DaemonFC I wonder if that has something to do with higher insurance premiums for young drivers.
[21:47] DaemonFC They get pulled over more because the cop sees a neon car that says "Please pull me over and cite me for something!".

[22:08] XRevan86 CrystalMath, frog: What are your best guesses?
[22:08] frog on germany tv they reported, Turkey welcomed any Russian guests, with money.
[22:09] XRevan86 CrystalMath, frog: Who is that prisoner on whose exchange Putin personally insisted as claimed by Erdogan?
[22:09] DaemonFC It sounds like Ukraine is getting the better end of the deal on those prisoner exchanges.
[22:10] XRevan86 DaemonFC: They knew they would in May. Russia just stalled greatly.
[22:10] XRevan86 In April even.
[22:10] XRevan86 frog: Come on, think!
[22:10] XRevan86 Ye can do it!
[22:13] frog i don't know any names of prisoners held captive in Ukraine.

[22:14] MinceR so do i
[22:14] frog on name mentioned was Medvedchuk recently

[22:16] MinceR if i were vladolf, i'd be somewhat pissed at medvedchuk for suggesting that
[22:16] XRevan86 Also during Poroshenko's presidency he was allowed to make a pro-Russian party called Opposition Platform For Life for their views to also be represented.
[22:17] XRevan86 MinceR: He probably is, but friendship is magic.
[22:17] MinceR :>
[22:20] XRevan86 MinceR: It's one of the things that differs Putin from someone like Stalin.
[22:20] MinceR :>
[22:23] XRevan86 Ukrainians get that so they've been talking about exchanging Medvedchuk since April.
[22:24] XRevan86 Z-putriots don't get that, so we observe all this amusing shit they post not understanding how a worthless worm from Ukraine is worth so many people.
[22:25] frog prisoner exchange, regardless of your opinion XRevan86, is demanded by the Minsk agreement
[22:25] XRevan86 frog: Prisoner exchange between Kyiv and Donetsk/Luhansk in 2015.
[22:26] frog don't know, how many prisoners there are, on either side, with Minsk agreement, _all_ prisoners had to be exchanged
[22:26] XRevan86 I'm not condemning prisoner exchange per-se, and there have been a lot of those over the months.
[22:26] XRevan86 I just find this one amusing.
[22:27] frog even if you consider this obsolete, the agenda to settle the conflict included just that, exchanging all prisoners
[22:27] XRevan86 frog: Minsk agreements have nothing to do with this. What does is Zelensky's policy to exchange PoWs one for one.
[22:27] XRevan86 except in this case (:
[22:28] XRevan86 frog: Not all prisoners are exchanged. This wasn't an all-for-all.
[22:34] *techrights_guest|84 (~0e61191e@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol
[22:35] XRevan86 frog: Just so ye understand the timeline, in May the Azovstal defenders surrendered to Russia under the Russia-UN agreement that they will be in safety. After that Russia decided to do this: https://neuters.de/world/europe/planned-trials-ukrainian-prisoners-mariupol-concerning-un-rights-office-2022-08-23/
[22:35] -TechPolBot/#techpol-neuters.de | UN rights office 'very concerned' about planned trials of Ukrainian POWs
[22:35] XRevan86 Many experts said that after the "trials" Russia will uphold the deal and everyone will get something out of it.
[22:36] XRevan86 Then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olenivka_prison_massacre happened and some of those PoWs died.
[22:36] -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Olenivka prison massacre - Wikipedia
[22:37] XRevan86 And now the "trial" is silently cancelled and all of them were exchanged for 55 PoWs and Medvedchuk.
[22:39] XRevan86 All of those who were left in Russian custody that is, including the high-ranking officials of Azov. Some of the PoWs from Azovstal' were exchanged earlier as well.
[22:40] frog XRevan86: would it be surprising, once himars nato artillery was provided to Ukraine, later "experts" disputed it must not have been nato weaponry
[22:40] frog i cannot verify anything, yet what's confirmed is this: USA/NATO did supply, didn't they?
[22:41] XRevan86 frog: If we're talking about the Olenivka prison massacre, then I can't take Russia's claims seriously even simply because of that they've presented the GMLRS debris relocated on a bench, like I said before.
[22:42] XRevan86 Any relocation is literally obstruction of investigation.
[22:42] MinceR what does "must not have been nato weaponry" mean?
[22:42] XRevan86 So there are two options: it's either reckless sabotage, or it's deliberate planting of the debris.
[22:43] XRevan86 frog: I don't have to be a munitions expert to understand that, so maybe ye would too.
[22:45] XRevan86 MinceR: frog says that experts "in quotes" like CIT claim it wasn't GMLRS that struck the barracks in Olenivka.
[22:45] XRevan86 Which is obviously true, they did say that.
[22:46] XRevan86 frog: https://neuters.de/world/europe/un-chief-launches-fact-finding-mission-into-ukraine-prison-attack-2022-08-03/ Remember this?

[22:49] XRevan86 frog: It's not proven.

[22:49] frog into three sub-categories, white, grey, black

[22:50] XRevan86 Ouch, wrong quote.
[22:51] frog furthermore, someone, intended to ignite fear and terror
[22:51] frog however, why, in particular any specific prison is detonated, i don't know.
[22:51] XRevan86 frog: Anyway, the important thing is that Russia could've proven its innocence if it were innocent.
[22:51] XRevan86 But all it can do is say "they don't believe our bullshit claims, what else can do?"
[22:51] XRevan86 * "can we do?"
[22:57] XRevan86 "Ouch, wrong quote." <- There's the right one: https://telegra.ph/Dispatch-for-July-30-31-08-01 "there is still no entirely trustworthy version of what exactly happened there"

[22:58] XRevan86 > We agree that this is clearly not HIMARS. It makes no sense to shoot the GMLRS from such a short distance, and there would be much more destruction made to the interior side (and the fragments shown lying on the bench could have been brought from anywhere else).
[22:58] XRevan86 > The version that it was Ukraine who deliberately killed their own people seems to us an absolutely improbable conspiracy theory.
[22:58] XRevan86 For the record, I hated the bench the moment I saw it, it's completely independent hate.
