Global Woke Empire Origins
00:09:31
|
|
| Hey, everybody, what is the global woke empire? | |
| Where is it from? | |
| Where does it go? | |
| And how does it involve Russia and Ukraine? | |
| We go through a history of what happens when America tries to remove dictators. | |
| Tempting at times. | |
| I totally can sympathize with this idea that certain people shouldn't be there. | |
| They're evil. | |
| But then what do we do about it? | |
| That's the prudent question. | |
| So we explore that and so much more. | |

| So the Ukrainian-Russian situation is ongoing. | |
| It's very murky. | |
| It's increasingly cloudy as far as the situation on the ground. | |
| Late last night, there was a story that came out that alleged that Russia attacked a nuclear power plant in Ukraine, the largest in Europe, is the way the media covered it. | |
| Ukraine nuclear authority accused Russia of shelling the Ukrainian power plant, saying that a fire broke out at Zapazorazaya nuclear power plant, ZNPP, but the Ukrainian state emergency service units put the fire out at 6:20 p.m. | |
| The state regulatory inspectorate reported: quote: ZNPP power units remain intact. | |
| Unit one reactor compartment auxiliary buildings have been damaged, which does not affect the safety of the unit. | |
| So immediately, Ukraine comes out and they say, Hey, this is an attack from the Russian government. | |
| It's an attack on all of Europe. | |
| We need to respond in kind. | |
| But it just happened to not be true. | |
| Yes, there was an electrical fire. | |
| There was something that triggered it, but it was not an intentional shelling of a nuclear power plant. | |
| Here's how I know why. | |
| Immediately, my friend in Chicago and I were texting back and forth, and he made a very astute point. | |
| He said, Wait a second, why would Russia bomb a nuclear power plant if the, let's say, radioactive exhaust could blow east into Russia? | |
| Why would they do such a thing as that? | |
| Why would they bomb a nuclear power plant that could actually harm the people of Russia if the winds were to carry the radioactive overflow or exhaust, whatever you want to call it? | |
| They wouldn't. | |
| It wouldn't make any sense. | |
| It would be completely and totally irrational. | |
| But this is a theme and this is a pattern that I want us to take a step back. | |
| And it very well might be the Ukrainians are on the right side of this. | |
| In fact, I think Putin is definitely on the wrong side of this. | |
| Invading a sovereign country is disgusting. | |
| It's reprehensible. | |
| It's evil. | |
| I think Putin needs to be held accountable for that. | |
| But we also need to kind of take pause and say, wait a second. | |
| How many lies from the Ukrainian government are we going to put up with? | |
| How many times are they going to say something happened that actually didn't happen? | |
| went through the Snake Island situation where allegedly 13 Ukrainian Marines and border patrol, I should say, told the Russian military, go F yourself, and they were bombed as their last words. | |
| It just so happens they actually didn't die. | |
| Or how about the ghost of Kiev? | |
| The ghost of Kiev allegedly was a fighter pilot that shot down multiple Russian fighters. | |
| Not true. | |
| Doesn't exist. | |
| The Russian shelling might have caused the fire, but some reports are saying that the Ukrainians fired first. | |
| They treated an inactive, debunked nuclear plant in Chernobyl with kid gloves. | |
| Why would they be so reckless with a live reactor? | |
| The answer is they wouldn't be. | |
| It's probably a lot more nuanced than that. | |
| Now, we must remind ourselves that Ukraine, the Ukrainian government, not the Ukrainian people, and I totally stand with the people of Ukraine that love freedom and have been abused by these awful, thuggish leaders like Zelensky and others. | |
| I'm not a fan of Zelensky. | |
| I'm just not. | |
| The more you read about him, the more you realize there's something wrong with that guy. | |
| There's something that does not add up. | |
| And he is a professional actor. | |
| The people of Ukraine, they deserve so much better than that. | |
| But Ukraine is a vassal state or a proxy state of the ever expanding global woke empire, trying to institute socially liberal, radical Western values in more and more countries. | |
| We went through some of the beliefs of the Ukrainian government under Zelensky. | |
| Free abortion, marijuana everywhere, all these different sorts of things. | |
| They want to institute them into Ukraine. | |
| The tension right now is between Ukraine's alleged government stood up by the global woke empire and Putin's aggression. | |
| And let me be very clear. | |
| The global woke empire, we're going to coin that term, by the way, the GWE, because there's a World Economic Forum. | |
| I like the GWE, the Global Woke Empire, where they want to almost evangelistically bring the transgender ideas, all this nonsense into new places, is up against another source of part of evil, Putin's alleged Russian empire. | |
| Now, Ukraine's secret weapon, Ukraine's Trump card, is not a nuclear reactor. | |
| Ukraine's way that they think they can win this conflict is not better air power. | |
| Ukraine has a secret weapon, and it's this. | |
| The Ukrainian government, not the people of Ukraine, they believe they can propagandize the West to fight on their behalf. | |
| They believe they can create narratives, tell stories. | |
| Zelensky is doing his best Quentin Tarantino routine. | |
| Zelensky is trying his best to create a film. | |
| Might be out of order like pulp fiction. | |
| It might be really bloody like reservoir dogs. | |
| Might have a lot of swear words like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. | |
| But the point is that it's going to tell a story. | |
| And the story that Zelensky wants to tell, and you can't totally blame him for this, by the way, his country is under attack, but we must know what we're consuming. | |
| That's the point. | |
| I'm actually not criticizing a country for wanting to make it seem like things are going better than they are. | |
| As the famous quote says, the first casualty in war is truth. | |
| Is that in a kind of perverse way, Ukraine is incentivized to escalate this conflict? | |
| Ukraine and the government of Ukraine is actually incentivized to make this seem worse than it actually is. | |
| The government of Ukraine right now is in a position to try and drum up support for intervention. | |
| Now, the people of Ukraine are fighting hard. | |
| I think it's heroic and it's admirable. | |
| In fact, I think there is a through line between the grassroots bubbling up of energy that we see of moms and dads showing up to school board meetings in America and the people of Ukraine that are going to fight for what they believe is right and true. | |
| And by the way, the people of Ukraine fighting, they're not fighting for Zelensky. | |
| Many of them are fighting against the ancestral hatred of Russians that killed their family members. | |
| So this is a provocative question, but I want you to think about it. | |
| Who is more incentivized to start World War III, or at least a more, let's say, comprehensive, wider engagement? | |
| Ukraine or Russia? | |
| I'm not saying that Russia wants peace. | |
| Russia does not want peace. | |
| You don't invade a country wanting peace. | |
| That's ridiculous. | |
| But which country is more likely to want to get the West involved? | |
| Which country is more likely to try to send or try to compel America to send people from South Carolina, Ohio, and Arizona to go fight 5,000 miles away? | |
| Well, of course, it's Ukraine. | |
| They're the smaller country, and they've also been funded primarily from the global woke regime or the global woke empire for years. | |
| The Ukrainian government wants to increase the tension. | |
| They want to increase Western support. | |

|
|
| That's their incentive structure. | |
| And with that being said, there's story after story that is untrue. | |
| And again, you can't blame them for this, but here's the thing: the West can't fall for outright war propaganda. | |
| That's the point. | |
| Is that we must look at the story and say, oh, there was no ghost to Kyiv, that Snake Island was not true, that Miss Ukraine, the supermodel, actually isn't going to go fight in the front lines, that that's an airsoft gun, no different than kind of war propaganda that would be shot for Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games. | |

| The situation in Russia and Ukraine is bad. | |
| What should the response be? | |
| That's debated by a lot of different people. | |
| Some people say providing arms. | |
| Some people say providing resources. | |
| And it's hard to disagree with the sentiment that we should stand with the Ukrainian people. | |
| But I am trying to draw a distinction between the wonderful people of Ukraine and their corrupt, rotten, good-for-nothing government of a George Soros puppet installed World Economic Forum trained Trudew best friend, comedian Zelensky, not a fan of his. | |
| I haven't been for quite some time. | |
|
Brutus And The Senate
00:04:52
|
|
| He's an actor. | |
| He knows what he's doing. | |
| However, a response that is now being, let's say, trial ballooned or floated out by none other than Lindsey Graham is that, hey, look, let's just assassinate Putin, okay? | |
| Let's just cut out all this nonsense and let's just bring in the snipers, activate the CIA agents, and take out Vladimir Putin. | |
| There's two cuts of this. | |
| Play cut 107. | |
| Somebody in Russia has to step up to the plate. | |
| Is there Brutus in Russia? | |
| Is there a more successful Colonel Stoppenberg in the Russian military? | |
| The only way this ends, my friend, is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. | |
| You would be doing your country a great service and the world a great service. | |
| Okay, well, first of all, just everyone gets the reference. | |
| Of course, that's from Julius Caesar, written by Shakespeare, but the story is absolutely and totally historically correct. | |
| One of the great pieces in English canon ever written by Julius Caesar. | |
| Beware the Ides of March. | |
| And we are 11 days from the Ides of March, which is March 15th. | |
| That's the first line of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare. | |
| If your high school or college kid has not studied Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, you're missing out. | |
| It's historically really accurate. | |
| The dialogues are incredible. | |
| And of course, the most famous line is, of course, when Julius Caesar himself, the first Roman emperor who oversaw the transition from the Roman Republic to the empire, turns up his head while he's been stabbed and looks Brutus, his very good friend, in the eyes and says, A2, Brute. | |
| One of the most famous lines ever written. | |
| The five parts, of course, are exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and denounmentment or denouncement. | |
| Okay, so those are based off Aristotle's poetics. | |
| Okay, but Lindsey Graham continues his call, just so you guys all get the Brutus reference, because remember, there was a conspiracy that was launched against Julius Caesar amongst the Roman Senate, SPQR, the Senate, the people of the Republic of Rome. | |
| Okay, cut 104. | |
| The way this will end is when he gets charged with a war crime, Putin and his cronies, and one day we nab him when he leaves Russia. | |
| But the best way for this to end is have an Elliot-Ness, a wide Earth in Russia, the Russian Springs, so to speak, where people rise up and take him down. | |
| Because if he continues to be their leader, then he's going to make you complicit with war crimes. | |
| You're a good people. | |
| You'll never have a future. | |
| You'll be isolated from the world and you'll live in abject poverty. | |
| So I'm hoping somebody in Russia will understand that he's destroying Russia and you need to take this guy out by any means possible. | |
| Okay, so let's just all understand what that means for a sitting member of the United States government to be calling for an assassination of another leader. | |
| That could be interpreted as a threat of an act of war, just so that we're all clear. | |
| You know, we are all trying to say that we need to have calm, measured diplomacy. | |
| Let's not get into World War III. | |
| We want to have our children and our grandchildren live in a hopefully a Western society we recognize, not one that has been completely completely obliterated by a nuclear holocaust. | |
| And then meanwhile, Lindsey Graham goes on television and just says, hey, I know what we got to do. | |
| We got to go assassinate that Vladimir Putin guy. | |
| We just got to activate all those CI agents, those Spetsnas, those KGB guys. | |
| Oh, those guys that they say that you just got to go be Brutus, Water, go be a hero. | |
| Goodness gracious. | |
| It does not take very much wisdom to look at what Lindsey Graham is saying and say, that is probably imprudent. | |
| That's probably going to escalate it further. | |
| So let's play this out. | |
| So Putin, quote unquote, wins elections with 80% of the vote in Russia. | |
| Okay, it's probably manipulated. | |
| Let's pretend that 60% of the country likes him. | |
| Okay. | |
| And by the way, if you know anyone that has spent time in Russia, he is loved in a lot parts of Russia. | |
| They love Putin. | |
| So you're going to assassinate the leader of Putin after the United States government calls for it. | |
| And what do you think their response will be? | |
| We're going to kind of go back in the Wayback Machine, leader of Russia. | |
| When we go back in the Wayback Machine, how is it that when leaders are assassinated, how does that usually work? | |
| Yeah, usually more chaos ensues. | |
| So how's your new year going so far? | |
| Pretty good, I hope. | |
| But it's been tough, hasn't it? | |
| Lots of us have begun to wake up and smell the roses. | |
| And some of us have smelt coffee instead. | |
| All of us are now realizing how quick time is rushing past. | |

| That's noblegoldinvestments.com. | |
| Okay, we're going through this idea of regime change. | |
| So Lindsey Graham has called for the outright assassination of Vladimir Putin. | |
| It's not like he did it in code words. | |
| He said it explicitly. | |
| He said, rise up, take him out. | |
| So how has that worked in the past? | |
| Well, let's look at Iran. | |
| Iran, the people of Persia, are actually, the people of Persia are actually wonderful people. | |
| The Iranian government is horrendous, one of the most despotic evil governments on the planet. | |
| Now, in the 1950s, there was a political movement in Iran to institute a different form of government. | |
| Iran was previously under Shah rule. | |
| It was under rule of, you could say, an ancestral blood dictatorship. | |
| But the people of Iran democratically wanted to elect somebody new as prime minister. | |
| Now, there was a prime minister type of, let's say, system, but they wanted to put someone in to nationalize the oil. | |
| It was all about oil. | |
| And so, of course, Mohammad Masagdeh was put into office by the people, and he served two years from 1951 until 1953. | |
| What has now been verified and corroborated in CIA documents and MI6 documents, and led, by the way, by Kermit Roosevelt Jr., a coup d'état, as blunt and as, let's say, unquestionable as one can find, Masagde was displaced and the Shah was reinstituted back into power. | |
| It was the 1953 Iranian coup d'état. | |
| It was in favor of strengthening the monarchy, the rule of the Shah, Mohammad Reza Pavli, on the 19th of August of 1953. | |
| So everything seemed just fine. | |
| And by the way, this is because Masagdeh wanted to audit the documents of the Anglo-Iranian oil company. | |
| You see, as the West started to have a bigger and bigger and broader and broader appetite for oil, Iran, the people of Iran, like, wait a second, why are we giving all of this money to the West? | |
| Why don't we nationalize it? | |
| Now, we're, of course, not in favor of nationalizing oil, but if the people of Iran wanted to do it, then that's not really our business in the West. | |
| Instead, the people running MI6 and people running the CIA saw that as a big problem. | |
| So then the Shah came back into rule for the next 26 years. | |
| Now, this is what's so important when you talk about dictator displacement. | |
| This is what's so important when you talk about that term regime change. | |
| Lindsey Graham throws it around on television like it's no big deal. | |
| Because sometimes you can see the results of your regime change immediately, like with Muammar Gaddafi from Libya. | |
| Sometimes you could just see him immediately. | |
| Wow, Libya goes to a civil war because of it. | |
| Not good. | |
| Other times, it doesn't bubble up for the next couple decades, and you might actually have created something far, far worse. | |
| So after we took out the democratically elected, supported by the people, Mossagde, what happened? | |
| Well, people started to turn really radical. | |
| So then, in the 1970s, all of a sudden, there was a legitimate revolution. | |
| In 1978, January of 1978, the Iranian Revolution, otherwise known as the Islamic Revolution. | |
| It was a series of events that helped overthrow the Shah of Iran. | |
| And it turned Iran from a secular, Persian, non-religious government into one of the most totalitarian Islamic regimes on the planet. | |
| Now, why did this happen? | |
| Well, it happened because of pent-up frustration from the West involving themselves into the illegitimacy of the Shah of Iran. | |
| It also did not help that the Shah was very sick. | |
| He was feeble. | |
| He was not himself. | |
| He kept on visiting the West for medical treatment. | |
| And it paved the way for a new theocratic government to take place. | |
| It does beg the question that if we would not have involved ourselves in the displacement of the democratically elected Iranian ruler in the early 1950s, took him out through a coup and put the Shah back in, would the Islamic revolution have happened in the 1970s? | |
| Probably not. | |
| And so now we live under the consequences of Iran getting closer to a nuclear weapon, Iran wanting to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, Iran supplying China with energy, and Iran funding terrorists that kill Americans. | |
| So we replaced a bad guy with a evil guy that we could control, and the Shah wasn't evil. | |
| He was just an idiot. | |
| And then all of a sudden, the Iranian revolution happens, and you have an even bigger problem. | |
| But it's not isolated to that. | |
| How about in Libya? | |
| In Libya, Hillary Clinton running the State Department with Barack Obama as president, we decided it was a good idea to go in and try to assassinate Gaddafi, which actually turned Libya into a bloody civil war conflict. | |
| How about in Syria? | |
| I remember the Arab Spring, which was largely a foreign intelligence operation to try to have dictator displacement. | |
| It was like democracy is coming to the Middle East. | |
| No, it wasn't, actually. | |
| Not at all. | |
| In Egypt, it went from Mubarak to, I think, Corsi pretty quickly. | |
| The Brotherhood really never lost some of their power. | |
| Algeria never really turned over hands. | |
| This kind of Arab Spring really didn't turn into much of anything, by the way. | |
| It wasn't anything consequential or wasn't anything significant. | |
| And in fact, the Arab Spring reached Syria. | |
| Once it reached Syria, what happened? | |
| The Syrian civil war broke out and sides had to be chosen. | |
| So thankfully, we rejected the repeated calls by John McCain and Lindsey Graham: we got to arm the Syrian rebels. | |
| We got to arm the Syrian rebels. | |
| It's a proxy war against Russia. | |
| My goodness, I'm glad that we didn't get involved in that one, but we sort of did. | |
| We did a little bit here and there. | |
| But what happened then? | |
| Well, what happened when we got rid of Saddam Hussein, another regime change dictator displacement issue? | |
| What could possibly go wrong? | |
| Well, despite a trillion dollars and 6,000 Americans either dying or having permanent injuries, or tens of thousands of Americans committing suicide afterwards, or hundreds of thousands of Americans having PTSD, well, what happened after that? | |
| ISIS was created. | |
| So when you take out dictators, Mr. Graham, sometimes something even worse happens. | |
| In fact, most times, something even worse happens. | |
| Now, why would that be? | |
| Because power needs to be distributed in a way, hopefully from the bottom up, from the people up. | |
| But when you immediately destroy a power vacuum, then there's usually chaos that follows. | |
| An assassination of a leader could lead to World War I, which is what we saw with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand when he was in Sarajevo, now known as Bosnia. | |
| Now, I want to go to this tape here of John McCain while he was alive and Lindsey Graham basically preparing via a translator for a proxy war with Russia all the way back then. | |
| And you see the then prime minister of Ukraine kind of chuckling and laughing because here's what you must understand. | |
| The government of Ukraine loved these deals with the West because they like plopped off 40% of all the money, all the goods, all the stuff that came in, kept it for themselves. | |
| This has been, if you know anyone that has ever dealt in the foreign aid business in Africa, it is an enrichment scheme for despots and dictators and people that otherwise would never have been able to become wealthy. | |
| There's a lot of Range Rovers in Ukraine. | |
| Wonder why. | |
| Play Cut 103. | |
| Your fight is our fight. | |
| 2017 will be the year of offense. | |
| All of us will go back to Washington and we will push the case against Russia. | |
| Okay, so I wish we had the full tape. | |
| It gets even worse. | |
| So he's talking to this entire room of Ukrainian troops back in 2016, saying, this is the year of offense. | |
| Your fight is our fight. | |
| And by the way, you know who else was there? | |
| The snow woman. | |
| Amy Klobuchar was there. | |
| It was the snow woman, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham. | |
| And so Putin listens to this while Lindsey Graham is, we're going to play offense. | |
| We're going to get you all these beautiful little super suits and you've got to come in. | |
| You're going to assassinate the snake, take the head off the snake. | |
| And then Putin's listening to this. | |
| He says, wait a second. | |
| I thought NATO was supposed to stop. | |
| And I'm not justifying the invasion of Russia of Ukraine. | |
| Of course not. | |
| That would be silly and stupid. | |
| But I thought NATO was a defensive measure, not an offensive measure. | |
| And there's Lindsey Graham, the head of whatever, you know, silly Senate committee, saying, I am going to go back to D.C. | |
| And what does he say explicitly? | |
| Your fight is my fight. | |
| Oh, really? | |
| So basically, he's saying, America is just basically now transported 5,000 miles away in Ukraine. | |
| I thought the whole idea of NATO was supposed to be defensive and a deterrent, not an offensive measure. | |
| And that goes to the point I made earlier that this is Ukraine was the farthest reach of the global woke American empire. | |
| Where we tried, and this is the thing is that they always say, well, we need to export Western values to them. | |
| I say, well, what if they don't want them? | |
| And also, what Western values are you talking about? | |
| Are you talking about freedom of speech? | |
| Totally supportive that. | |
| You're talking about constitutional rights? | |
| Totally supportive that. | |
| Oh, you're talking about abortion? | |
| Oh, that's what you want to bring to Ukraine. | |
| Got it. | |
| Okay. | |
| So, oh, you're talking about transgender issues. | |
| Oh, I see. | |
| Do you see the problem there? | |
| It's like, oh, you want to have the BLM flag and the pride flag fly over Kyiv like you did with the State Departments all across the country. | |
| So what Western values exactly are you trying to export? | |
| What if everything in life is a lot more complicated than good man, bad man? | |
| What if it's a lot more murky, a lot cloudier? | |
| Well, here is one thing that isn't complicated, though. | |
| And I want to reiterate this, is that the people of Ukraine are showing courage and they have been used as proxies by these thugs and these oligarchs on both sides, by the way, to try and, let's say, incite a conflict where it doesn't exist. | |
| Binaries are for children. | |
| A lot of life is nuanced. | |
| It's in the detail. | |
| It's outside of just a one-minute cable news segment where they try to use visual stimulation, propaganda, carefully worded Chirons and sound bites to try to trigger and elicit a response from you to try to act. | |
| The furthest reaches of the global woke regime in the empire was in Ukraine. | |
| And the hero worship of Zelensky, not of the people of Ukraine, is coming from the same people that told you to trust the science and America systemically racist. | |
| I'm going to be a little bit suspicious of that, actually. | |
| I think we should be a little bit sober on how we consume this information and how we act. | |
| Prudence must be our guide. | |
| Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here. | |
| You should be concerned about today's headlines. | |
| I am too. | |
| It's not pretty. | |
| So here's the thing. | |
| You should rely on yourself, especially when it comes to food. | |
| Food shortages will only get worse in the coming months. | |

| If not, I urge you to get the four-week emergency food kit from MyPatriot Supply. | |

| Act now and your order will ship quickly and arrive discreetly at your door in unmarked boxes in three days or less. | |
| We have to be very careful and discerning consumers of news. | |
| And also, I believe I have an obligation to try to go a level deeper to try to say who's behind this government of Ukraine? | |
| Who is behind this entire situation? | |
| What's really going on here? | |
| Well, Ukraine, because of their, let's say, government's willingness to accept money for nothing, has kind of become a piggy bank for so many families in America and the West. | |
| We're going to go into a deeper level at some point all about how Hunter Biden got rich off of Ukrainian interests, oil companies, and other ways. | |
| That Ukraine has been a client state for the State Department and for the very same people that you're worried that they're teaching your child nonsense. | |
| That's who's basically been trying to run Ukraine. | |
| So maybe this will mean something to you. | |
| Maybe it won't. | |
| But what if I told you that Zelensky and the government of Ukraine, not the people of Ukraine, have been enthusiastically supported by George Soros? | |
| What if I told you that George Soros set up a foundation in Ukraine, quote, before they became independent from Russia, and he continues to operate in Ukraine today? | |

Nazi Paramilitary Units

| This is him in 2014 talking to Farid Zakaria on CNN, PlayCut 121. | |
| One of the things that many people recognize about you was that you, during the revolutions of 1989, funded a lot of dissident activities, civil society groups in Eastern Europe, in Poland, the Czech Republic. | |
| Are you doing similar things in Ukraine? | |
| Well, I set up a foundation in Ukraine before Ukraine became independent of Russia. | |
| And the foundation has been functioning ever since. | |
| And it played an important part in events now. | |
| Josh Hammer writes in, he's the head of Newsweek, editing an opinion sign. | |
| He says, quote, Ukraine is just as corrupt and just as oligarchic as Russia, if not even more so. | |
| At the time of Ukraine's 2014 color revolution, itself clandestinely abetted by liberal NGO types, which deposed the pro-Russian president Viktor Yanachovich. | |
| The nation ranked as one of the most absolute most corrupt nations in the world. | |
| He says, quote, there are neo-Nazi paramilitary units such as the Azov Battalion active in Ukraine. | |
| Ukraine, lest anemic Westerners forget, is also the country that Hunter Biden and Barisma got rich off of. | |
| Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Pushnik was for years a massive donor to the Clinton Foundation. | |
| And Zelensky himself, of course, was at the center of Donald Trump's first entirely bogus impeachment. | |
| It seems there is something fundamentally rotten about modern Ukraine that no enterprising investigative journalist has yet uncovered. | |
| Wait, so there are neo-Nazi paramilitary units such as the Azov Battalion in Ukraine and Uber and Google and every major corporation is trying to have you to send money to go to Ukraine. | |
| I'm not saying all the people of Ukraine are neo-Nazi paramilitary units, but that does exist. | |
| The government is remarkably corrupt. | |
| So, maybe the situation in Ukraine is not as simple as one jersey we need to cheer for, one jersey not. | |
| The people of Ukraine deserve credit and they deserve to be commended. | |
| But maybe the government of Ukraine doesn't care at all about the people of Ukraine. | |
| Maybe the government of Ukraine has been getting rich, fat, and happy, shooting theatrical and cinematography videos, all the while knowing that there might be a different game at play here. | |
| But that doesn't stop the Western media from fawning over Zelensky and his government, from doing everything they possibly can to try and demonstrate that Zelensky is the hero of the woke West against the East. | |
