Putin plans to obliterate Ukraine. He has zero chance of occupying the country given his weak ground forces. So mass destruction it is. https://t.co/k3x9adbPau

Russia is reportedly kidnapping Ukrainian civilians—many of whom they consider subhuman—and putting them in camps inside Russia: https://t.co/LI4gnRIZ7c

Mariupol residents forced to go to Russia against their will, city council says. They were taken to camps and then sent to remote Russian cities. What the occupiers are doing today is familiar to the older generation, who saw Nazis do the same.https://t.co/9O65nn4GPy

If Fox is now a Kremlin platform,Tucker Carlson,Sean Hannity,etc.repeating messaging from Putin…why isn’t Fox,Rupert Murdoch being sanctioned?
Jes a thought
Gulags back. Just one white man trying to send up back to the worst of the past.
(Pol Pot. Xi Jinping & Uighurs; Tibetans before that. Central African Republic, don’t remember the names; Lord’s Army in Uganda, Congo. Interahamwe in Rwanda. Burma. India. etc etc etc. “Men” does seem to be relevant. Not so sure about “white.”)
Male sex? Relevant. Power-hungry military thug: relevant. Skin color? Any color is relevant.
Irrelevant, is what you meant, right? It definitely is.
Just a reminder, the Bar pulled Squee’s buddy’s recommendation for lack of judicial temperament and the republicans still put the alleged rapist on the bench.
Really good cartoon, JJ. The European ones are especially dark, but then they’ve seen far more war on their home ground than has the US.
Hmmm. Wonder if he ever got vaxxed.
Tucker Carlson as Curley is brilliant!
