Shame to them. Get out , you don't belong there. I wish their cities were blown up just the same. At this point, they deserve it.
Never wish death on innocent people. Have you lost your mind?
Who do you think starts wars? People like me and you? We just suddenly wake up on day and think "I know, I'll just rustle a few feathers on the world stage and attack another country!"? When was the last time you, me, or anybody on this forum had even 0.1% of that power? Don't be silly. You think some random Russian man or woman dreamt up the idea of bombing Ukraine?
Let's get one thing straight. You don't represent your country in the world of politics. The rulers represent your country and you are supposedly CHOOSING those rulers to represent YOU. But it doesn't work like that. We all know that. We all know voting for new leaders does nothing. We all know it's a game. You don't get to decide in today's world what countries your rulers choose to attack and besides, they will attack any country so they choose and then pile on the lies and manipulation to get you to support THEIR agendas. That's how it works. Name one fucked up war your country has fought that hasn't been like that?
What the ruling classes want you to say and how they want you to behave is exactly how you are behaving and what you are saying in your post.
They want you to BELIEVE it's YOUR responsibility to explain away their FUCKED UP decisions while they abdicate responsibility for your actions and then to start attacking other people (in whatever ways, be it physical, mental, emotional etc) who do not align with your rulers agendas. Notice here, your rulers agendas. These are not YOUR agendas, although you are made to believe these agendas represent you. You were NEVER part of the process. You think watching CNN or scrolling Facebook makes you a part of what is going on? You never EVER were made aware of the plans your government had in place when the shit started hitting the fan and believe me, your country knew about Ukraine and Russia for many years. After all, this is a conflict that has gone on now for over a decade! You were never invited to be privy to the ins and outs of all the chin stroking and chest beating at the big table of government. Nope, instead you got a drip of what is going on in the world through your television set, your smartphone and social media. You get a diluted version of the situation fit for a peasant because YOU are not the be trusted with the facts, with the capability to challenge what is going on or even to know about these things. You get the Disney channel version of world affairs and you get as much responsibility as a kid allowed in the driving seat of daddy's car. Notice, you don't get the keys nor do you get to drive. You get to PRETEND you drive while daddy pats your head.
So stop pretend like you are driving. You aren't. Nobody is. Nobody here is driving the car. Your rulers are driving the car. It is THEIR decisions, THEIR agendas. Nobody in Russia is driving the car either. People in Russia are just living life like you are. They drive pretty much the same cars. They have the same jobs. They eat the same food. They watch the same videos on YouTube. You have been CONDITIONED to believe world events and the narrative played out can be explained in such black and white fantastical ways in that, if the rulers of a certain country declare war, it means every citizen in that country has declared war as well. The WHOLE country is the enemy. How is that even possible? There's only one fucking leader to begin with! And only a handful of executive command positions available (and intentionally so, because what power hungry leadership wants endless amounts of other power hungry leaders vying for the top spot?). Does every citizen have access to the nuclear suitcase? Come on now. ONE MAN ON THE PLANET IN EVERY COUNTRY HAS ACCESS TO THOSE CODES. You will NEVER EVER EVER get access to them or even come within a football fields length of them. You will be shot back into the Iron Age to meet your ancestors before you could move a muscle in your leg. And yet you spout your rhetoric like you are the next in line to the chief of command. The chief of refuge collection, more like. We all are refuge cleaners. After all, it's US who cleans up the fucking mess and pays taxes for our so-called representatives agendas. We are the fools, the clowns, the ones who always take the bait.
Rulers rule over people. They do it in a number of ways. Chief among them (obviously) is CONTROL. How they control you is up to them and it's usually the hard or easy way. Hard being tyrannical force used. Easy being cajoled by other means. In the Western world we are not beaten into compliance. Instead we are bombarded with manipulation, lies, propaganda, brainwashing and social psychology techniques honed over many decades of research into getting people to conform at scale. It's the 'soft' approach but make no mistakes about it, the desired result is EXACTLY the same.
Your message is a perfect example of that very brainwashing that runs deep in the fabric of all people all over the world TAUGHT FROM BIRTH to assume they represent the agendas of their country when in fact, they are simply trained to REGURGITATE agendas that someone and something else has devised and then sought to plant into your consciousness until it becomes second nature. Within your mind there are narratives that even you might not be aware exist. Maps of the world. There will be bad guys, good guys, stories of triumph and ideological beliefs that you take to be concrete but never question. There's an entire fiction novel in your mind that you DID NOT write that represents the reality you THINK equates to the world out there, and in this case, the IDEA of Russians being bad people. Why? Because that chapter that is stored in your mind (Russian bogeyman/Cold War/Nuclear war etc) has been revived and brought to the surface. You might not have even been alive to witness the Cold War and yet it still affects you? Why? That's the power of conditioning. It can, and is, passed on through generation to generation. We all know this with generational trauma. One family who experienced grief during a war will pass that grief onto the next who also will tend to see the world how those before them did. You have been triggered to respond in a particular way based on particular stimulus conditioned into you from an early age. Russians? Get away! McDonalds? Mmmm.. tasty. China? Ew! Biden? Nice guy. When the programming breaks you see the cracks in the fucked up mosaic that IS the world you live in. The choice is whether you choose to put that fucked up tapestry back the way you were TOLD to see it, or whether you start to put it back the way YOU want it to be. Now that's REAL fucking change.
If you want to be a real hero, start being able to understand how things work. REAL heroes are the ones that transcend the 'normal' fabric of reality and then do something extraordinary. Extraordinary is only doing something that IS NOT ordinary. What you are doing IS ordinary. It's boring, bland, empty, easy to do, simple, remain in your comfort zone, gives you a false sense of accomplish. REAL heroes who create REAL change are the ones that see the way things are IS the issue and so they have to do something DIFFERENT. They see all the people doing the same stuff repeating the same things shaking like leaves in the Autumn breeze when it comes to acting independently and stepping up. Just go into any city and act like you fell over. See how many people actually stop, disconnect from the groupthink and help you. Most would shit their pants before ever doing something out of the ordinary. They can't break protocol. If they break formation it means they lose the masses.
Any REAL change in our world has come when a select few individuals have gone against the grain and sought to create REAL change.
Sure, they've been stigmatized, bullied, dehumanized, mocked and even killed. Their names ran through the mud. Their lives even ruined. But what they stood for is what made all the difference and now today, we use their story and their actions as inspiration to live our lives.
Just ask yourself, what change are YOU bringing?
I can show you quite easily. It's the message you just posted and that I just quoted.
Now answer this...
Do you think your comment creates a better world? Do you think you speak for peace? Do you think you speak for change? For the challenging of ALL fucked up political agendas, on ALL sides of the fence? Do you think your stance makes a difference?
Now answer this, and I've mentioned this a few times already...
Who sent you? No, really... Who sent you here today to say what you said?
It's a hard question to answer isn't it. It's like asking a rapist who sent them to rape you. They don't the answer off the top of their head but the reason why they are here today about to do what they are about to do is because, they too like you, have been sent because of a spiraling set of circumstances that could stretch back their entire lifetime which has culminated in them making their CHOICE today. That choice is rape. It could be anything else but let's make it sinister to let it sink in. Now change that to war. Who sent you to promote the death of innocent people? Who sent you to encourage war? Who are you speaking for? Can you tell us? Can you show us? Change it to drugs. Why did you start taking them? Who sent you to make those decisions you made? Chances are, if it's like most people, including myself, it's based on your life story. You were compelled through events in your life to make the decision to take drugs for one or more reasons. At the time, would you have acknowledged that? No, you would have defended the story. Okay, who telling the story? Who is writing it? Who is responsible for it existing? Where did it start? Now you're starting to see there is actually more going on than simply just 'wanting' to take drugs. Nobody 'wants' to take drugs unless they are exposed to the environments, situations, people and circumstances that create that possibility. Okay, so let's take it back to what's going on in Ukraine. The story is no different.
You can't unravel that story because you're simply ACTING the way you have been told to act based on the conditioning you have been exposed to. You are running a program like a robot and that robot doesn't know anything other than the instructions it has been given. It can't question it's own programming. Until you are at the stage of understanding your programming, you will never be able to question whether it's actually programming you even wanted in the first place.
So, where's all this coming from? Did you create it?
No. So don't perpetuate what you cannot even vouch for, or even begin to understand. And that includes promoting the DEATH of innocent people just because your government has acted in it's own best interests and then lumbered the weight on your shoulders like it's YOUR fault and YOUR task to perpetuate THEIR agendas.
