What the Kiev regime's conscription looks like.
Many American and European politicians, ideologues and media writers
continue to misrepresent the Ukraine case as "a duty to help" and the
like, allegedly motivated by some high values ("democracy", "freedom"
and all such fetishes). That's a bold hypocrisy, immorality. From the
very start the case was dirty and deeply immoral.
The 2014 violent coup in Kiev became possible only due to absolutely
barbaric provocation when those radical pro-Western activists started
to shoot to kill both the protesters and the police. In the post-USSR
Ukraine politics, there were misc & many dirty tricks by pro-Western
activism before, but that 2014 bloody provocation made a big change.
Part of the Ukrainians that didn't support the insane attitude of the
radical activists felt a non-illusory threat, since the bloody freaks
have managed to get power in this way, and the plans they manifested
were unacceptable.
In Crimea and east-Ukraine there was a genuine grass-roots sentiment
not to recognize the imposters. But the Atlanticist stance made the
situation highly destructive. Atlanticism refused to notice the fact
that the coup was illegitimate and illegal. Moreover, the post-coup
moods in American and European political class were like a hungry cat
sniffing fish. They absolutely ignored those Ukraine's citizens who
refused to subjugate to the coup. MSM promoted false narratives: the
violent coup was "revolution against a tyrant", those who are unhappy
about this are all "Kremlin agents" while "people of the Ukraine" are
all ardently "support the revolution". The Atlanticist scum were sure
that - since they control most of the mass-media - they can lie with
impunity. This stance stimulated east-Ukrainian separatism, as people
understood they can not rely on anything other than Russia.
Then, there were those "Minsk agreements", which could pave a way for
a compromise settlement. But it turned simply a dirty trick once more.
While the post-coup regime sabotaged implementation of the agreement,
Atlanticist propaganda falsely shifted blame to Russia, and European
participants later admitted they considered the Minks negotiation
rather as a distraction intended to provide the Kiev regime with more
time to strengthen itself. In deeed, besides this Atlanticist-backed
foul political play there were increasingly ugly developments on the
Kiev-controlled territory. In particular, fuller suppression of
remnants of any skepticism and increasing stupefaction of populace by
hateful propaganda (under guise of "democracy", of course).
In general, one must be morally inferior to believe that by means of
vile machinations, dirty tricks and big lies it's possible to achieve
something good and nice. Once a dirty beginning produces then a dirty
continuation. Schlimazel-clown Zelensky managed to get power mainly
because he promised a reasonable compromise settlement. But he easily
chose to betray his electoral promise after he was pressed by radical
domestic minority supported by Atlanticist backers.
Since I am a private person and not a decision maker, it's difficult
for me to assess whether there was a way for the Kremlin to avoid use
of military action against the Kiev regime. However, a private person
can notice basic patterns. One basic pattern has been already noted:
it's hardly possible to build socially something nice by machinations
and lies. One more basic pattern is that one can not communicate with
inanimate nature. If some cultist group becomes self-isolated within
a bubble of their cultist wishful thinking, then the only way to deal
with this group is to consider it an inanimate natural phenomenon. If
an interlocutor imitates communication but its behavior doesn't match
its messaging then at some moment it ceases to be an interlocutor and
becomes an object of inanimate nature. And the only way to deal with
inanimate nature is through physical impact. It's not recommended to
abuse communication if you're not ready to be treated as an inanimate
object. Or if you're not ready to treat your interlocutor this way.
There's no paradox that the Atlanticist "liberal-progressive" faction
has now become the most pro-war party. It's quite natural given the
cultist quality of this faction in its current state - self-isolation
within their delusion. The Trump-leaning part of American politicians
seems to start understanding that support of the Kiev regime is not a
promising field, and they do it not because they love Russia so much,
but they seem to be more realistic. Of course it means some damage to
America's image. However, the further it continues, the greater final
damage will be (and nuking the US isn't something surely impossible).
