The Russian Presidential Aide and head of the Russian negotiating group with Ukraine also said that recently the Russian Military Historical Society handed over several thousand books to the institutions where Ukrainian prisoners of war are being held, including textbooks on the history of Russia in the 20th century and pamphlets about Bandera
The leaders in Europe are all financial capitalists who invested a lot of capital into US financial system. Even if European people face hunger tomorrow, their assets are secured at US banks. For this reason, they don’t care whether they sign deals that are unfavorable to the European people.
We definitely should elect better leaders, that’s for sure. These have to be dragged kicking and screaming into doing the right thing. It takes too much effort, and it’s going way too slowly, but they can be moved. They’ve moved somewhat (not enough) on Ukraine, Gaza and even the environment, all due to popular pressure, but they need to move a lot further. People need to stop voting for the right wing idiots they keep electing.
You should definitely elect better leaders. If something is consensus in all so called “democracies”, is that everyone thinks everyone else need to elect better leaders. The majority of the working people, which comprises the majority of population of most (pseudo-)democratic countries are mostly unsatisfied with their governments. This is occurs repeatedly and consistently in all liberal democracies, with a few exceptions. If there’s something all liberal representative democracies look alike is that most people don’t feel their interests are being represented by their government.
There’s a reason why this happens in all capitalist societies. Note that it’s not an individual issue and the reason is not lack of education and stupidity, as people often say, as even well educated individuals do bad voting decisions. This is a social and systemic issue and it’s not a coincidence.
I won’t tell you why, I want you to think about it. Then tell my why this happens.
