The longer this takes, the worse it gets for Russia. You keep bombing and killing innocent lives, the Ukrainian people will resist even more to the point Putin will have to wipe out the whole population. The rest of the world will eventually have to do something. Once Ukraine is taken over, the rest of Europe is done.
Russia now banning media from independent reporting ... must parrot Putin's own narrative. Cannot report what is happening in Ukraine as an 'invasion' ... up to 15 yrs imprisonment. Didn't think I could hate one human being so much as I do Putin!
CBC and BBC suspend reporting from inside Russia in face of 'fake' news law, blocking of Western websites https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/russia...cked-1.6372603
The CBC has joined the BBC in saying it will temporarily suspend all its reporting from the ground in Russia after Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a bill introducing a prison sentence of up to 15 years for spreading information that goes against the Russian government's position on the war in Ukraine.
I do feel a bit bad for Ukraine in that they gave up their nukes after having been given security assurances in the Budapest Memorandum and now all the players in that agreement are completely fucking them over.
That's kind of sad.
That reminds me of a video I watched a long time ago on this topic. It tried to challenge you with a different perspective about how nukes can actually keep the world safer. I don't know if I really agree with it, but it does make a fair point. If hypothetically every country had nukes, maybe no one would fk with each other.
But then again... That's pretty much America's philosophy on guns, lol.

Grandma's notes:
-Out of all the years and possible wars that may have occured from her growing up as a kid, shes disappointed the people that decided to invade, were her own neighbors
-There is no current war in Odessa, it's relatively quiet, can't say the same for other cities, she does not even want to turn on the TV to see what's going on, it's horrific to think it's reality
-The borders are insanity, people that have cars, have up to days waits to cross due to the backlog to Moldova, etc
-There is still power and utilities in Odessa, once again, she can't say the same for other cities, her friends in Mariupol have not had water/power for some time
My mom's brother:
I asked him if people are leaving Ukraine, are they handing out firearms
-Sounded like most are sticking around as there is no immediate threat, those who have a car, and or are able to leave are. Mostly women and kids. Those who are 18-60 males, are not allowed to cross borders, unless you have medical or "made up" excuses to leave
-Firearms aren't being "handed out" per say, but you can go to certain "depot's" and get one if needed
Grandpa:
-Watches alot of YouTube from both sides, Russia/Ukraine and makes up his own opinions as to what is going on
-Made jokes about how when I was a kid, and my mom dragged me back to Ukraine for the summer, the first 3 days that I arrived, there was no water or power in our building, and how that was just a normal occurance x times per year.
- Furthermore I commented on how people in Canada/USA would have a temper tandrum if they did not have water / power for a span of 1 hour, not to mention days. My grandpa followed up with a local joke "Americans can't fight without pampers" while he coughed up several chuckles
-Not much to do, but that's okay, we will make it by, as long as the war does not make it to Odessa, we will be fine. We can still buy groceries, got a chicken and a couple kalbasas today

Thanks for sharing. Pretty much confirms what we've been hearing, but it's always good to get as much direct or second hand (rather than third to fifth) info.
Also supports the post I made on the first page of this thread - people are going to live their lives to the best of their ability. Unless there's a tank rolling through your actual house, or a missile fired at it, you're going to live on.
full war helmet, full Rifle bullet proof armor, Stupid fucks driving around looking just like a soldier in a war zone.
The Russians had no idea who they were when they started firing. And after they identified themselves, they kept firing. Those stupid fucks are still alive because of wearing that gear.
“The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place... and I don´t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently, if you let it. You, me or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life. But ain't about how hard you hit... It's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward... how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That´s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you worth, go out and get what you worth.” - Rocky Balboa
You can always send your nukes before the next guy. Doesn’t make anything more safe.
Well, the idea rests on whether you think a country that's backed to a into a corner will resort to nukes or not. It's always a scarier thought to try to provoke a country in the first place if they have nukes.

Zelensky had a call with US senators, Ukraine specifically asked everyone on the call not to share shit on social media, for security reasons real or perceived.
