Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Right back where we started, several hundred thousand people later, all so some shithead could buy up all of Ukraines agricultural land and rent it back.

Is it a war if you can't privatize everything still intact in the country afterwards?

[–] ProfessorAdonisCnut@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

Well, all of it except for what Russia conquered

A peace summit without Russia or Daddy America? Lmao.

So it's a pep rally.

Absolutely insane to keep doing these fake peace conferences that don't actually include Russia.

It's really just a recruiting conference to try and get people to sanction Russia, give them money and weapons, or also join the war.

"Come on guys, join the losing team!"

It's interesting that even Ukraine knows China is a peacemaker, given they're requesting them to come. It really shows that despite the image the US Empire makes itself as a spreader of "freedom democracy", everyone knows that it's a lie.

The cynical view of this is that Ukraine is trying to use China as a lever against the US, the implication being that Ukraine will serve China another diplomatic win (after Saudi-Iran) if the US doesn't resume support.

I don't think it's going to work even if it's true, but Ukraine doesn't have many levers left.

Good thing your dipshit soldiers just posted that photo of a dark skinned Russian pow being forced to hold a banana. Not gonna alienate anyone in the global south with that one.
