Nazi Dictatorship gonna Nazi Dictatorship
If like me, you were wondering how this changed anything since they’ve been doing this for years, then you will find this part of the article to be relevant:
FTA: Martial law and a general mobilization were first declared in Ukraine in February 2022 and have since been extended numerous times.
So… in other words, no… nothing has changed.
RT? As in Russia Today? Complaining that the country they invaded isn’t holding local elections while they’re bombing the shit out of it?
Weirdly, no one has commented on straight up Russian propaganda.
Not many countries hold elections during an active war.
It’s remarkable that demradlibs used to be all “anti-war” during the Bush years but gradually moved so far to the neo-interventionist right wing through Obama that you’re cold war level gung ho for NATO and for spreading Russophobia.
In reality there’s absolutely nothing out of the ordinary about west aligned nations to have dysfunctional elections or open dictatorships and no amount of screeching about “western values” and corny reddit slogans like PutlerPutlerPutler changes that. Which is US/EU propaganda to the point of censoring “enemy” media but weirdly doesn’t bother you amirite.
Doesn’t really matter, because all leftist parties are banned.
still gotta cancel them to be extra sure; belt and suspenders. lol
To stop the wrong person winning
Ukraine democratically cancels local elections
Unironically a bastion of Western values
