People without internet use are completely without hope. They will go the bank Next week, their savings will be gone and theyll say "huh, Ukraine? What?" And suddenly hold an opinion on it
I disagree, the internet is the breeder of stupidity and should be limited to (and advertised as) "entertainment purposes only". Meant to be the great educator and bringing information to the masses it has now become the biggest generator of ****e ever to be thought of and many many thick ****s fall for it. Most of those Russian peeps knew/know exactly what is going on, one or two think it's fine, most are too frightened to give an honest opinion and a few brave ones who couldn't give a **** if they get a knock on the door were happy to denounce it.
Theres a man there who said Russia isnt invading Ukraine, people "live there." Maybe the internet you digest is utter ****, but you have countless news sources at your fingertips if you have the intellectual curiosity
Did you miss the bit where i said most were too frightened to speak? (he actually said Russian people live there) Look around these boards mate, there are some who just post tweet after tweet from some ****s nobody has ever heard of but are saying what they want to hear without ever posting their own opinion. EDIT............I am not saying that great information isn't out there, just that there are also stupid people who take ****e as in like sponges and there is far too much ****e around to feed the stupid.
Only one person who can do anything about that mate. What do you say @brb, any chance you could pull your finger out and sort it?
****in hell. If I was a journo out there I’d insist on being armed. Or at least travelling with armed security.
We’re doing a collection today with one of the organisation’s I’m linked with. Got a van driving out to Poland next week. Great to see the generosity of the local community.
I don't post any of it online, but I had seen the alleged stories of mums and kids getting shot down in cold blood, trying to evacuate. In fact I probably post very little from the internet and just give my opinion, but that's mainly because in war zones, you have very little way of veryfing anything. I'd been waiting for reports from either Alex Crawford or Stuart Ramsay, SKY war correspondents, but I know it takes time to get into the worst hit areas, if at all. I think Stuart Ramsay's report still don't confirm the death squads, just lunatics with guns, but when you think these guys have been in some of the most dangerous places in the world, I've seen aerial drone attacks on them before, but nothing of this magnitude. I suppose that's what happens when you ignore handmade road signs that say, welcome to hell.
Not sure if this is the same story you are referring to, but it is now posted on the BBC... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-60578293 I got so angry reading that. Utter contemptable bastards! I'm not an 'eye for an eye' person, but reading that my feelings were that once this war is over then anyone found to have deliberately shot an innocent civilian adult should face a firing squad themselves. Anyone found to have deliberately shot a child should be told that all of their families will be rounded up and shot, including their children, before being sent to a firing squad themselves. Of course I would never want their families and children to be shot, but I would want them to feel at least some of the pain they had inflicted before they died. Punishments like that would be wrong, and in the cold light of day I probably wouldn't feel the same, but god they are utter bastards.
Just put this on GC, same question any thoughts? Am i missing something simple and basic. This is pure ****ing stupidity to me, we are short of oil/fuel and prices are going through the roof. The site doesn't say which but there are two different scenarios for this. We have either paid for this oil in which case it's ours anyway. We haven't yet paid for it in which case we should just take it because we need it and **** paying. Any thoughts? https://news.sky.com/story/ukraine-...orkers-refuse-to-handle-russian-fuel-12558022
Heidi who posts on our board sometimes, as a brother out there, last week she posted about some of the atrocities out there, he told her about, families cars being stopped, the occupants killed and their vehicles stolen. Raping too.
