The man, last known to have lived in Poland, was one of the divers who allegedly planted explosive devices on pipelines running from Russia to Germany under the Baltic Sea in September 2022, German media has claimed.
That’s why it caught my eye! Sure people are going to have the same last name as historical monsters, it happens, but giving your kid the same name as a fucking nazi general? That sets off the
The schmuck who wrote this garbage probably truly believes that it’s a piece of “unbiased” and “objective” reporting.
I’ve met enough of these idiots to know that, as a profession, they truly believe there’s such a thing as objective reporting and that they’re doing it - or coming as close to it as possible. I’ve had so many discussions with these idiots which boils down to me just repeating myself because they can’t seem to get the basic fact that “when you report on something you have to make decisions on what to include and exclude, and just by doing this basic thing you are no longer presenting an objective retelling of events. Any depiction of the truth requires that you decide how to depict it”.
If you wanna bring up how money or politics influences it, forget it. They’ll go full whatabou- oh wait no it isn’t that, because we’re the uh… The good guys… They’ll point out how China is totally worse actually. Then they’ll want a discussion about what censorship really is, but fuck me if I wanna have a discussion about censorship with an idiot who doesn’t understand that “when you write about something, you’re making a decision just by way of how you write it.” Especially when I’ve read these idiots articles about protests that got teargassed and they all contact the chief of police for a quote. It’s insane how often I’ve read the phrase “the police was forced to deploy sticks and teargas.”
Journalists are the dumbest people around and they really suck because they think they’re smart and enlightened.
If you were enlightenedas a journalist you’d start out by accepting you’re a propagandist, that’s your job. Only by accepting the actual state of affairs will you be able to address them. I fucking hate journos, dumb smug brickheaded pieces of shit. It should be legal to drown them
Imagine you’re a liberal journalist working at one of the largest news sites in your country, then you write an article like this.
Most liberals are technocrats and they like to pretend to be professionals.
How can you take yourself seriously after covering Nord Stream in western journals, and not sounding the alarm bells that this is complete and utter bullshit? Even worse for Germans, this could be considered treason, at least in some sense.
How are their heads not exploding from the cognitive dissonance?
like for fucking real if you want to shit on germany there are a billion fucking reasons to do so, but someone blowing up ten billion dollars of pipe isn’t fucking shit on the radar
And the destruction of this much money is investigated in such a lackadaisical fashion, and nobody raises an eyebrow? Completely insane.
You have to understand that Germany is now more of a vassal of the US, which is kinda insulting to medival vassal relations. During the Cold War there was some leeway, but Merkel got rid of all of that.

lol Rommel being one of the main figures in the clean Wehrmacht myth. They’ll take the nazi detector and say “yep we found one of the good ones”.

I recently learned the rapper Young Dolph’s name isn’t a reference to diamonds, but to his full name Adolph lol
My biggest gripe with journalists is that they think they’re journalists

The article I posted says his name’s Volodymyr Zhuravlov.
