    The war is not popular in any major country. Do you think the Ukrainian people like it? It wasn't easy for the millions who migrated out of Ukraine just to get away from war. They would have rather stayed home in peace.

    But just to show everybody where you are, you seem to like the war, just like your buddy Zelensky... along with the ruling elite of the world and their military war machines. Kill off the few Ukrainians that are left, before they simply fail, and Russia is shown to be the good guy by going in and helping them out with reparations.

    Governments are made ups of supposed leaders. They are not made up of the people/citizens. Most of the citizens don't want war. It's the leaders that want war.

    Seems like a good place for this rather famous exchange:

    Quote from: Goering +

    "Why, of course, the people don't want war," Goering shrugged. "Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship."

    "There is one difference," I pointed out. "In a democracy the people have some say in the matter through their elected representatives, and in the United States only Congress can declare wars."

    "Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."


    I would observe also that the general technique is useful for all manners of pressure by the leadership against the plebs.  The covaids so-called 'vaccine' was a prime example.


    sig spam anywhere and self-moderated threads on the pol&soc board are for losers.
