Shitpost picture for a shitpost status.

I didn't mean to write so much. As usual for me, I can't only eat just one piece of information and chew on it -- I'm a glutton for linking things together. This post starts at the recovery of dead Russian soldiers' bodies in Ukraine and ends with a series of citation-provided highlights about Russian Financing impairing the U.S.'s political system. I even manage to get some digs in at the NRA and BLM Global Network Foundation. FAIR AND BALANCED WOWIE (kill me).

Denazification following WW2 was a failure. In many ways, the U.S. and its allies which would go on to form NATO to oppose the USSR would quickly dust off German officers, generals, and scientists so-as to pick them up and use them against the Communist Russian lead counter-axis.

I describe a lot of human politics with this idea of Axis / Counter-Axis, I'll go into what that means, and how it is directly utilized by political actors to rationalize all kinds of bullshit. Then I'll get into more specifics regarding disinformation promoted by the Russian State, and after that, some general thoughts on how this has become a source of sour tension between myself and a friend of mine who has a very fucking stupid perspective on the war.
