“It is bullshit for you because you do not read any books, or literature”
I read plenty Mewling Socialista. The difference between you and I is that I know when it is I’m reading fiction. Lol
“Internal Russian news outlet have indicated that the support for Ukraine-War has decreased to only 25% – Newsweek”
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
“What is fake? That there was a leaked report from the Kremlin or that what that report said is fake.”
Both.
_________________And your evidence is….?
I know Daily Express articles are no more reliable as a source of news than the dodgy sources TS relies on to justify his support for the capitalist regime in Russia and its imperialistic adventurism but if this is true then this is good news. Let’s hope the same is happening in Ukraine and Ukrainian workers abandon their military as well!
In a bare-knuckle bout between Mr Putin and Mr Zelensky who would win? Mr Putin is older but photographs of him on the back of a horse with no shirt on suggest (for clarification, Mr Putin was shirtless not the horse) he is in the peak of condition for a man of his age (it’s obvious, the horse couldn’t have been wearing a shirt, which frankly is the sort of stupid fantasy I’m not prepared to enter in to) he could more than hold his own.
Mr Zelensky in his grubby green t-shirt (of course you can put your shirt on a horse in the sense of losing this weeks housekeeping on some nag running at Ascot or Kempton Par…wish I hadn’t mentioned that bloody horse) looks like something you see sprawled over a shopping mall bench pulling on a can of super-strength lager. And he has his pit-bull with him too. Unfit.
In an ideal world leaders of nations would be like Gandhi, who eschewed violence, which was just as well as he was all skin and bone and unlikely to come out top in a scrap.Poland may be preparing to annex parts of Ukraine.

The vultures circle
Around 150,000 ethnic Hungarians live in Ukraine
Oleksiy Danilov, head of the National Security and Defense Council said the Kremlin believed Hungary “could take part of its territory” back, an apparent reference to Ukraine’s Transcarpathia region, which was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire prior to World War I and part of Hungary on the eve of World War II.
Orbán came under pressure to apologise after posting a video of himself at a football match wearing a scarf that depicted historical Hungary, including parts of Ukraine

Gandhi is another mythology like Nelson Mandela, Gandhi supported the violent acts of the Indian ruling class
Did he?
Wasn’t he dead soon after independence?
Can you quote him on the matter, because i’m sure you are wrong.Gandhi did not challenge the caste system of India but accepted it.
“I do not advise untouchables to give up their trades and professions. One born a scavenger must earn his livelihood by being a scavenger and then do whatever else he likes. For a scavenger is as worthy of his hire as a lawyer or your president. That according to me is Hinduism.”
Almost unknown outside India, the person who drafted India’s constitution, Ambedkar, was a severe critic of the treatment of the lower castes, the Dalits and Adivasi population.
“Gandhiji, I have no homeland. How can I call this land my own homeland and this religion my own, wherein we are treated worse than cats and dogs, wherein we cannot get water to drink? No self-respecting Untouchable worth the name will be proud of this land.” – Ambedkar
A more recent critic of Gandhi has been the writer Arundhati Roy, who has called him a defender of the caste system and an upholder of oppressive gender relations.
Also forgotten is Gandhi’s admiration for Mussolini.
Gandhi’s position on class was that advocated the use of moral force to achieve a more equitable society where capitalists would become trustees over the labourer plus a levelling of incomes.
During his time in South Africa, Gandhi also expressed various racist opinions – see video below
