      Yeah I’m so sick of the “oh you naughty boy, Vlad” nonsense. Get up off your arses and do something to stop it.

    So are cyber-attacks during an active war, against supporters of Ukraine, not considered acts of war? Not to mention the recent killing of military personnel on German soil? That too, not an act of war?

        Anything is an act of war

        Wouldn’t go quit that far but using hybrid cyber attacks is definitely a warfare tactic.

    On one Czech podcast the host summed it up nicely: EU and Czech Republic politicians should pull their heads out of ass and realize that Russia is in full blown hybrid war with us. Disinformation campaigns, cyber attacks and sabotage of ammunition depots.

      Okay let’s assume they have been ignorant of this up until now but they all realise it now overnight. What would that change?

        EU nations could proactively promote progressive activism in the population of Russia and white hat hacking to disable Russian state cyber & resource infrastructure.

          Thanks, cool recommendation. I think the consequencesof “what if we gave Russia what it wants?” as Babiš and sometimes Trump suggest they would do if elected, were a little glossed over. However, I’ve already watched William Spaniel’s video about that so no big deal.

    It is clear that putin wants to go out in a big bang. He does not care how that affects his fellow humans. He is a danger to everyone.

      That’s not true, in 2022 people weren’t sure about, especially since there was a gossip that putin had cancer (now looks like it was likely spread by FSB)

      We know now it was BS and just a strategy to let the West have him what he wants. putin’s ultimate goal is to control Europe and Asia, and unless the West wakes the fuck up, he will achieve it.

      He knows Russia has absolutely zero chance in conventional warfare with NATO, so that’s what hybrid one comes in that includes disinformation, sabotage, destabilization.

      I highly recommend book: The Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America by Timothy Snyder which covers history of putin’s Russia. The war already started over a decade ago, we were just sleeping through it.

    Can we seriously not fuck with the blyat’s energy infrastructure? It’s not like he could actually muster any real military force.

      What do you mean? It’s Ukraine that is destroying Russia’s refineries, to reduce the mobility of the Russian military. Why would you want them to stop defending?
