My dear fellow politician, posterity will remember you as the fact that you persuaded millions to kill each other with false promises. Written by Árón Ambrózy.
Because reality comes as inexorably as the Nothingness in the Neverending Story that engulfs and devours everything. There is no one, not even a chosen hero, to save him from him. You are just each other and the dog-eared dragon-looking propaganda press on whose back you are trying to escape. But in vain, reality just keeps coming.
One of the "reality debates" that has recently divided Euro-Atlantic civilization has been clearly decided: Joe Biden is old and tired, he needs to go home. The recognition ran surprisingly quickly through the representatives of the independent-objective-press, that is, FOS.
One minute we were fact-checked; they exposed our malice, because from another camera angle, Biden didn't even s@rt while he was chasing charming butterflies or cutely bouncing little elastics with dots instead of holding hands and smiling together, so that in the next moment they themselves would call the president to back down. The Romanians were the last to cross over to the other side so quickly and seamlessly.
Parenthesis. Those press workers who wrote defamatory articles about us a few weeks ago, asked us why we lied about Biden's condition, while we can welcome the youngest, most intellectually fresh president of all time in person, should at least go to hell, but at most change their profession. Because they are really the most vulgar propagandists, who were perfectly aware that Biden is a dumb ass, but they tried to hide it from the readers and at the same time from the voters. In other words, they are liars, shit, trash figures. End of parenthesis.
In our other common cause, the interpretative debate about the Russian-Ukrainian war, we are still far from the two common sets intersecting in reality. But the cracks are already visible in the wall of the simulacrum drawn by the infantile drumming and chanting circle disguised as morality. Even in the mainstream press, even if in a timidly flabby form, opinions are already appearing according to which
the military reality is that the Ukrainian army cannot recapture its lost territories, nor can it change the situation on the front with modern western weapons, so it should initiate armistice negotiations with Moscow.
Well, good morning! If the so-called West were not run by factory idiots, they would have let Ukraine fail in '22 at the latest. And then we wouldn't be suffering from a creative crisis right now; we can't figure out how to climb down this cucumber tree.
The fact is, we have too much invested in this dysfunctional neo-Nazi regime to let it go. We are beyond the exit line, holding out is cheaper than backing down. It was a pity to start, because the dog really shouldn't be interested in Ukraine anyway. We also only show our best face when we complain about the hypothesis of a Russian-Hungarian border; on the one hand, there's no chance, and on the other hand, we'd be fine with it, so let's pretend...
And now what should we do with the cottage cheese? - asks the clean, non-advanced competitor, and there is no answer. It is possible to think later, "why did you go there?" , but we went there. We have two options:
or we lose our investments or everything.
Both Stoltenberg and the American administration expressed their wish that the war would last indefinitely, and that Ukraine would be admitted to NATO one day after the end. And there are fools for whom this promise is worth more than today's Ukraine, minus Crimea and four counties, plus eternal neutrality.
Here it is worth mentioning the fact that the Budapest Memorandum and the Constitution of Ukraine also included eternal neutrality, and this was certainly the first to be attacked by the USA, also unsolicited, on behalf of NATO, by inviting Ukraine to join the military alliance in 2008.
And it doesn't help, my dear fellow politician, if you turn the knob even higher on your drumming and chanting circle and shout even louder that Putin can't win, Ukraine must win.
Okay, I'm not anti-drucker, win, but how? Well, that there is no answer to that, you just showed that you have a moral compass. This is a great help for Ukrainian families...
The reality is that this war has two outcomes, if we don't want to carry the Ukrainian victory in a bag and deal with the realities:
• Russia wins;
• We fill the planet with pretty mushroom clouds, and then wait a few thousand years before it becomes habitable again.
I don't deny that none of the options are very encouraging, and none of them are desirable, but there you have it. These two possibilities are what is called reality. Of course, you can drum, you can chant, you can repeat with a disabled face that Putin cannot win, but none of them can drive away reality.
And I know, my dear fellow politician, this is bad for you right now. It's too bad, because after one of those two outcomes happens, some voters will think to take it out on you. Maybe hang me as a war criminal, because you still made Ukraine lose everything for nothing. (Yes, unfortunately the situation is that the promise of joining NATO is not worth a multi-year war.) And the majority of the electorate will punish you with loss of office in addition to contempt.
What's more, you will be remembered by posterity as having lured millions to kill each other with false promises.
Yes, it is also extremely important to point out that anyone who convinces others to kill each other just for the sake of pleasure is called a psychopath who is dangerous to the public not only in the common language, but also in the literature. And, my dear fellow politician, even though you pretended to be mentally disabled, we will certainly treat you as a psychopath who is dangerous to the public. Not only us, but also those Ukrainians who mourn their dead and their lost, shattered country at the same time.
