especially if it might provide a pretext to pursue the consolidation of your own power and the usurpation of new ones.
consider the possibility that the chief target of russian sanctions might not even be russia. it’s clear they are laughably inadequate and incomplete to be taken seriously, much less to act as a deterrent.
but they sure do create a fine pretext to crack down on attempts to escape US financial control and push anyone using crypto under the patriot act’s baleful draconian jurisdiction, don’t they?
your privacy will be deemed a national security risk and equated to terrorism.
Anybody else wondering why US "Intelligence" (what an oxymoron) got this one right? I have been. I think Biden was trying to use a fake threat of invasion to continue to claim he needed emergency powers and to distract form the coming questions about COVID. Listening to him, Putin just decided, "F--k it. What really will they do? The US is in a shambles, Europe can't protect itself, and they're never going to stop the flow of energy because they would be hurt worse than we are. Why the hell not?"
This is true. It's all very convenient. No one who thinks they really matter will be hurt, and like COVID, Jan 6th, and 9/11 long before them, it will be an excuse to tighten down on the peons even further. You almost wonder if Putin isn't in on the joke, if you start thinking of it that way.
I'm going to dispute that they got it right. There's no evidence of that, they haven't shown any intelligence to support that, and one could rightly suggest they may have precipitated it.
Let's not, of a sudden, grant them any credibility or trust they have worked for decades to destroy.
Given the hand of cards Trudeau showed the world last week, this whole Russia 'thing' looks to me to be THE pretext to label Bitcoin money for terrorists, domestic and foreign. As they push Putin off the financial rails, he will respond by adopting Bitcoin and voila - the US can say it's illegal here. Every government wants to establish a Central Bank Digital Currency for total control of our every move but Bitcoin is the only thing in the way as it transfers the power to the people to be sovereign. If Bitcoin wasn't a threat, they wouldn't mention it. This is going to get interesting.
What I don't understand - I thought Chernobyl was still uninhabitable. How can anyone (even Supermen Russians occupy an uninhabitable place? Or are Russian soldiers invincible? And if so, why haven't they captured Kyiv and overthrown the Ukrainian government in one day?
Or maybe "Chernobyl is uninhabitable" is and always was BS. Maybe the grounds of the reactor complex itself are somewhere you don't want to hang around for long, but IIRC those guys who filmed their motorcycle trips through the region ten years ago showed lots of perfectly healthy wildlife.
Ah. I remembered correctly. The meltdown only affected one of four reactors at the plant. The other three kept right on generating power until they were shut down in 2000, FOURTEEN YEARS after the disaster. So if the area were so deadly radioactive and uninhabitable, how come the plants were still operating?
I’m not generally a conspiracist, but I can see this being the next stage in the great reset now that Covid has run out of steam. If we start seeing a huge ramp up in the legacy media and government talking about the need for cyber security restrictions and tracking, along with the release of a cyber “virus”, I think we can start to get concerned that this “crisis” is actually an “opportunity”.

This is all pushing us towards the great reset.

Well he is a WEF "young leader," right?

Wait until the Ukrainians decide to blow up a few pipelines. I suspect some places in the EU will learn it's still cold.

Did anyone else think it was strange that Russia occupied Chernobyl? This is a very weird war.
Yeah, thinking the same thing.
Apparently, the quickest route to Kyiv.
Also makes the immune from bombardment due to radiation release if the containment is breached.

Just a way station. Occupy doesn't make sense.

It’s all kabuki
Anyone else get an Imperial Russia circa 1917 vibe about the Brandon administration besides me?
Since Puppetmaster Klaus owns both Putin and Trudeau, it would not be the least surprising if he has deployed Vladimirov’s Thunderbolt.

Yup.
