  • Serbia is just showing us in really time that peaceful protests are only allowed because they are an inefficient tool to enact change (at best) and a harmful tool at worst.

    These protests were massive, lasted for months on end, spanned the whole country, were asking for extremely reasonable and mild changes and still haven’t accomplished anything of note.

    I know that the violent side didn’t come from the students but it will be interesting to see if this changes things



  • The EU needs to put actual restrictions on Russia, Russian oligarchs and Russian allies/goods, not just a not even fully opaque curtain that is easily circumvented like it is atm (even by EU members).

    They also need to properly support Ukraine’s military so that they can repel Russian troops back to Ukraine’s borders instead of just giving them enough ammo and guns that will allow them to continue this war of attrition. Maybe they could use all the resources that Germany sends to Israel for example.

    And then they need to do what was said above. Actually come to the table with Russia and negotiate the end of the war.

    But atm that isn’t possible because Russia is not being forced to. They made their ground and ofc aren’t keen on giving it back and Ukraine is also not willing to give part of the country to Russia (as they shouldn’t). And the EU politicians are happy to be profiting of this war and shift their economies to war economies in order to fill their pockets further.

    We haven’t done shit for climate change and it’s not even being discussed anymore. And it will only get worse.
