Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

Let me put it this way: I no longer view Cyberpunk corporate citizenship as dystopian.

Cyberpunk-themed IP's made in the US tend to have showcase humanity having shit tastes in fashion and aesthetics, as if modeled after contemporary societal loonies.

Back to the news, ladies and gentlemen. Russia claims it has no intention of toppling Ukraine's curent government while Zelensky threatens his own politicians who are attempting to build bridges with Russia.



Be advised that I am reporting news from the Russian media with all the biases it entails.

To most of them the entire "military operation" is a blatant attack on their way of life, and I cannot blame them.

I mean considering they are more Western inclinded, it’s no surprise they want to eventually lose out to Nazis. We Westerners do love to do that. You should reassure them that that will happen eventually.

Bad news, lads. Geldof wants to sing 'I don't like Mondays' again.

Bob Geldof and Imelda May have been announced as part of the line-up for a musical and arts event launched to raise money for Ukraine.
The Night for Ukraine will be held at the Roundhouse in north London on Wednesday evening, with the funds raised being donated to the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) appeal to provide aid to people fleeing Ukraine.

Ukrainian born pop duo Bloom Twins, who helped organise the event, will also perform alongside The Pretenders star Chrissie Hynde and Ukrainian baritone and principal artist for the Royal Opera House Yuriy Yurchuk.

Irish singer Geldof said he was keen to get involved with the fundraising event and wanted to do what he could to support the Ukrainian people.
He added: “At least it stops me feeling so utterly impotent if only for an hour or two. You can do the same by simply showing up and enjoying yourself. See you there.”

Bloom Twins explained that as Ukrainians it had been “humbling” to see the support their country was receiving from the rest of the world.

“We are really looking forward to being a part of this project, and not just as a one-off performance but as creative collaborators,” they said.

“This is an absolute honour to be representing our country and helping people caught up in this devastating conflict.

“There is so much every one of us can do to make a difference and even though it’s called ‘Night for Ukraine’, the impact of it will last much longer than a night. It will belong in our memories forever.”

The evening will also feature the resident choreographer of The Royal Ballet, Wayne McGregor, and a special performance from The London Community Gospel Choir.

A host of other artists are set to perform on the night including Jack Garratt, Eckoes, Peter Xan, Tom Baxter, Joseph Toonga, Nadeem Din Gabisi, Joseph Lawrence and Archive.

The project has been organised by the founder of Secret Cinema, Fabien Riggall, in collaboration with the Bloom Twins and Sunflower Relief, alongside Phoenix Court, Roundhouse, Sofar Sounds, Platoon and Lost.

Night for Ukraine is also encouraging other artists, organisers and venues to stage their own night across the nation to support DEC.

The DEC brings together 15 of the UK’s leading aid charities, including British Red Cross, Oxfam UK and Save the Children UK, who are working on the ground in Ukraine and at the country’s borders to help those fleeing the conflict.

The evening will also feature an address from DEC chief executive Saleh Saeed, who said they were “grateful” to the Night for Ukraine event for its help to fundraise during this “critical time”.

He noted that the public reaction to the appeal had been “incredibly generous” so far with £120 million raised in five days.

Saeed added: “Our members are working tirelessly with local partners to reach people in Ukraine swiftly as the brutal conflict turns lives upside down.

“Families, including many children, have been forced to leave everything they know behind to find safety and desperately need food, water and shelter.

“The DEC exists to mobilise the British public’s generosity and goodwill at times of crisis overseas, and this is one of those moments.2

Zelenzkyy and Putin have a lot to answer for.

All those donations coming from different sources will just end up in the pockets of "their guys", just like how all that financial and humanitarian aid to third world hellholes will enrich whomever was in charge of those.

Little does anyone realize Rushia's termination was a Ukrainian Op, and that's why Putin invaded. He was the top supporter under an alternate account. He lost his light, and was left with nothing.

lol seems like I recall that she and Botan actually did lead in terms of Russian fans so who knows...

 

[Det. Sipovich]

Is there any source you guys and gals would recommend to stay semi-updated with this gay conflict? Anything less retarded than mainstream coverage will do at this point.

Considering how he’s been acting, threatening seems absolutely likely. Dude seems all over the place. Which, everything considered is understandable. And he’s probably not calling the shots anyways. Whoever actually has power is. Because the way he’s acting, it is certainly not him.

honestly, this thread has been the quickest to update and correct false posts in my experience. Ive been following a few different outlets basically since the beginning and I keep finding I heard the information here first by a few hours. (Maybe Im just retarded and all the sources Im following are shit tho)

I know some people might don't like this, but as I wrote in the A&N thread, the claim is now much less believable because China is pushing it as well. Why? Because they knew it can be used to help their claim of blaming the US for Covid. And China is never subtle with their propaganda and lies

The ratio of interesting, well sourced takes to absolute schizoposts has made this a very enjoyable thread. Even the odd contained spergout is entertaining if it's only one faggot doing it.

Yeah once China starts parroting you can be dead certain is 110% bullshit, with a 10% margin of error

Okay, but you do realize that it's extremely convinient to weave a narrative by using truthful statements, right?
There's 336 bio labs worldwide. They become bioweapons labs. Which clearly have military activity, although we can't even be sure and we're calling for them to be more transparent. But still we're going to imply there's military activity there.
I'm willing to eat crow over this bullshit but this just seems like a bone tossed over the fence so spergs like us can waste our time discussing them, as if they're somehow the real reason between Russian and Ukrainian animosity. And then DC glowies monitor how we're eating up these narratives. We're the pawns being used in an information war.

Then why did Victoria Nuland tell Marco Rubio that she was concerned about Russia taking control of these labs and all the materials inside them?

 

[The Foldless Brain]

I thought the bioweapons claim was just bullshit until Nuland refused to outright say "No" to a question of whether there were any in Ukraine and stressed how important it was to keep what's at those labs away from the Russians.
