I guess terrorism is perfectly fine when it’s done by white countries. Whether this was done by Ukraine or not doesn’t even matter because the response is loud and clear: When you can’t win on the battlefield, resort to the murder of civilians and that’ll just smooth everything out.

The double standards on display in this conflict are mind boggling.

    Whaaaaaat? Libs be hypocritical? Pleeeeease…

    I can’t help but wonder though…why the fuck Dugin of all people? For all the “interesting” places Putin’s government goes this guy is just kind of a freak 'round here. Is it an attempt to get a media victory by blowing up literally any political activist and saying they were important?

    P.S. Oh, my bad, I forgot that western media already calls Dugin - “Putin’s brain”. K.

      Does Dugin have any real influence in the state? I thought he was just some weird Russian intellectual dark web weirdo.

        Well, not quite that freaky, but he’s one of those weird populists, truly commited to some sort of grand national idea (Russo-centric Eurasianism in his case)…I’m trying to avoid ad Hitlerum… Even bourgeois politicians, if they’re worth a fuck, keep those screeching on the sidelines, let alone Putin’s government with their tendency for inertia with bouts of unpredictability and ideological schizophrenia.

        Basically, you know how Navalny was worthless? Dugin even more so. The reaction around Russian internet was an overwhelming “That sucks…but who’s daughter?”.

          Good to hear that his importance is overblown. I’m getting two sets of state media reporting on this at the moment and both countries are saying how Dugin is basically Putin’s ‘right hand man’ or the ‘intellectual’ behind Putin’s policies and all this. It’s infuriating that this will absolutely go unquestioned by 99.9999% of people because they want to believe that there’s some batshit quasi-Rasputin looking mofo secretly running the Russian government

      The headlines are clearly trying to make it seem like Dugin was Putin’s actual daughter and not the daughter of a guy he barely knows.
