Dear Zelensky,
Please take your anger and frustration out with more sweet sweet Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian bot farms.
Sincerely,
Democracy

They can't, since musk capped their starlink access

If Musk is participating in the war, he must then be considered an enemy combatant by at least one side.
Pee-on Musk is just mad he's lost a ton of fake followers.
Would do, even though I’m not into that. Wouldn’t if he were on fire.
Yeah, except this isn't the first time he's used starlink to ruin an attack of theirs, and last time they hadn't taken out a ruzzian bot farm. Any excuse will do for him.
Starlinks don't support middle and deep strikes and have never been. Our air defense relies on them tho. So more civil deaths as result
So ukraine can still hit data centres? If so they need to hit them all, as soon as they can. It really looks like the key to victory at this point
Nationalize SpaceX
Diaper Don apparently choked the throttle, because Zelenskyy drone hit on the bot farms has reduced the shitstain’s AI fantasy propaganda. Plus, Putin seems to have amped up his pressure on his favourite stinky puppet.
Excuse me sir, don't you mean SUPER INTELLIGENCE!?
They hurt the global far right. Not just those in US.
As an American, it's going to take the world to fix America. The world needs to punish and isolate America as long as it allows Republicans to exist.
You don’t need an invasion force to save you, you need a revolution. Outside punishment and isolation isn’t going to do jack shit while half your citizens inside the border just sticks their heads down and takes it while Trump rapes your country.
Donald Trump is a Russian asset

The intelligence community said ten years ago that this man is indebted to Russian oligarchs and year after year he shows the entire world behaviors that only a man that is deeply indebted to Russian oligarchs would do.
He stopped every investigation into his ties to his debts to Russian business dealers, he fired or replaced every form of federal opposition including but not limited to judicial oversight and federal investigative powers, and he has enriched himself through a shell company called World Liberty Financial that created 60% of his net worth through a crypto scam. And to top it all off, he removed the beneficial ownership reporting requirement that allowed FinCen to track organized crime and money laundered.
This has less to do with the soul of the American people and more to do with a con man doing exactly what a con man does - which is conning an entire nation.
Republican support is directly tied to economics, their voters can keep their head in the sand because their day to day is not affected by which countries we support abroad but by how much they pay at the pump and at the grocery store.
And racism. Don’t forget the racism.
As Germany turns to the far right, Great Britain exits the EU, and other countries fall prey to the same Russian tactics devastating America... maybe it would be good to realize that foreign interference has gotten particularly devastating in the digital age.
A revolution requires funding, training, and cohesion, none of which we have.
On the left side, they need more funds and equipment to start shit, and someone to stand up and rally everyone else behind them.
On the right side, they have funding and the voters who voted with the right aren't being all that economically impacted yet.
In both cases, outside intervention is nessecary to force a change. Unless you want to go the route of waiting for the economy to collapse because right wing economic policies are shit, which is what is going on right now.
Even in that case, outside action is nessecary cause y'all need to stop trading with the US to ensure your economies are safe from the collapse.
You don’t need an invasion force to save you, you need a revolution.
Never going to happen, that is what you don't understand. This country is full of hateful, bigoted idiots. You're essentially telling 1938 Germany to "have a revolution" to save themselves.
Sorry guys, you need to solve your own shit on your own soil, we'll help pick up the pieces after. If there's one thing America should have learned by now it's that foreign powers can't FIX another country no matter how hard they try (or lie about trying lol), it has to come from within.
I firmly believe problematic content in the online space is a significant cause for many of the ills in the U.S. (and, by extension, globally). Our tech companies WILL NOT change. They have made this abundantly clear. As such, my hope is that tech infrastructure and platform alternatives emerge elsewhere and replace our evil shitheads who have done so much harm.
EU denizen here. Literally every EU country is fighting tooth and nail it's own local flavor of mysteriously well funded firebrand "yurop is only for christian whites herpaderp" politicians and pundits who are on the TV and social media 24/7 complaining they are being silenced, and for the fucking life of me I still cannot figure out why people are struggling to not vote for total shitheads and against their own interests after Trump 1.0, brexit and Trump 2.0 - Electric Boogaloo; we need to fix ourselves first.
I know, I know. On behalf of educated and reasonable Americans, I apologize for our leaders actions. Please be patient while we take out the garbage. Should just be a couple weeks.
I wish that's all it'd take. You guys have a LOT of garbage to dispose of, and decades/generations of repairing to do. Good luck ❤️
If the midterms aren’t completely compromised (if doing ALL the heavy lifting there) then what? We can’t vote out billionaires. We can’t make 30% of the voting population function at an adult level.
To your point, I’m 40 and don’t see a real path towards America being trusted on the world stage again before I retire.
It’s going to take generations to rebuild it all
A lot of the damage will never be genuinely undone, like Europe deciding that it is not safe to rely just on Visa and MasterCard for payment networks, or be so heavily reliant on Windows, and soft boycotting American defence suppliers.
That is a strategic decision which will help develop parts of the economy that were previously dominated by the USA and will financially cause more damage to the US economy than whatever Trump thought the pax Americana was costing the USA.
This is not just a financial impact, but a loss of impact as well. Trump's actions will have the opposite effect long-term. Unfortunately he's too stupid to think more than one step ahead.
Sadly nobody realizes that everyone think it’s gonna go back to normal after but we are so fucked Edit- anyone want to sponsor an American that’s wants to gtfo of here

Look, I hope the midterms are a blue tsunami as much as anyone else, but if you think that there's any version of this story where we regain our standing within the international community within our lifetimes, I have bad news.
Our nation's reputation will take GENERATIONS to repair. We've completely squandered every ounce of good faith that the world placed in us at the end of the Second World War, and it will take a tremendous and concerted effort spanning decades to gain back our standing, and that's assuming that effort ever takes place at all. Winning back Congress is step 1 of about 58309. We need prosecutions, convictions, locking up everyone involved in this criminal regime and then laying the foundations throughout our country to prevent a catastrophe like this from ever happening again - comprehensive electoral reform and legislative guardrails, term limits for the supreme court, massive investments in public education, revitalization of labor unions to bring power back to the American workers to demand change... an unfathomably long list of things need to happen.
Otherwise, the world has no reason to assume that we won't simply pick another Trump in 2028 or 2032 and beyond.

Best case scenario Dems take both houses in November. What meaningfully changes for Ukraine and other former US Allies asking as British Canadian? Trump remains President, continues to rule by Executive order, his insane and corrupt appointees continue to run all government agencies, and your Supreme Court remains totally compromised.
We are 10 years into Trump and MAGA it is going to take a lot more than a single election to even start to fix America and rebuilt trust with former Allies.
I don't say this to be all doom and gloom but I just need sane Americans to be realistic about just how fucked their country is so they can actually try and fix it long term.
The rest of the sane world doubts this. It's going to take years to repair the damage and prove that you guys won't vote in a moron every 4 years.
It doesn't help that our system is deeply undemocratic.
A red state with 600 thousand people has the same amount of senators as a blue state with 40 million.
We did impeach him the first time, twice. It was our fucked system that let him off the hook.
Weeks?! WEEKS?!! Western democracies aren't going to trust the US again for decades. It's impossible to trust a nation that can repeatedly fall so far to idiocy and corruption so easily.
Be sure to thank Musk and the Republican Party he owns in November for betraying every American value and moral
Non-psychos checking the news every day: "What is it now?..."

Russia really did find it easier to conquer America than to conquer Ukraine.
It’s been in concept and planning for ages. They know they cannot necessarily match us in direct fighting, but internal fighting through politics and disinformation especially in the modern age, is far more effective. All it took was a mouth piece getting elected for Russia to show it.
We, the people of the U.S. support Ukraine in the effort against the fascist state of Ruzzia. If you all wanna be a big help to Ukraine, give what you can. Every bit helps. This is the official platform and allows you to pick where your money goes. https://u24.gov.ua/sky-defense
He may have lost (never had, really) Trump as an ally but he hasn’t lost the United States.
The United States has lost itself to trump as well incase you missed it.
I hate my own government, disloyal to democracy, just opportunistic slime making the decisions.
As an American, we aren’t to be trusted and you should watch our example of what not to do.
We killed off all of our Native people, enslaved a different set of people for hundreds of years.
And have never come to terms with that stain.
As a result, we cannot even have healthcare like 39/40 of the world’s largest economies.
We are going to live stream a public execution in December, because of the religion of the killer.
Our only focus is an ever growing military and whatever the “Market” wants.
We have an inelegant system of elections because of slavery and about half of our population hates the other half.
But it’s rural vs urban, nationally - so it’s not something that anyone can fix.
I could keep going but it’s just tragic
Our original sin will lead to the sunset of our empire and we will never live with the shame because we cannot even agree on…anything.
America wants isolation, time we all give it to them. Bad Mastercard/Visa and US tech projects. Invest in EU businesses and programs instead.
Give America want they want. They are no longer a legitimate ally.
They didn't loose the United States, they lost the illegitimate administration. Most of the people of the US support their fight.
It doesn’t matter to other nations that it’s just this regime. It’s not less terrifying that the US is a failed state run by a megalomaniac that is owned by foreign countries that are currently committing war crimes, but does not have the mandate from their electorate.
In fact, it’s more terrifying. There are no checks and balances to the orange terror, and he is supported by enough of the population to make statements saying otherwise nothing but pretty words without value.
Everyone laughs at the insanity, right up to the point that he follows through on his autocratic dreams.
As an American, I am deeply ashamed of this administration and of each person who voted for this. America siding with Russia in a war where Russia invaded a sovereign nation. I truly never thought I'd see anything like this in my lifetime.
Musk is becoming frustrated he can't rig the elections. Taking out Russian data centers is making life tough for Musk.
