  • Yeah when did I say I support Boulos or that I’m a fan of PSOL? That’s right I didn’t and you can go ahead turning the blind eye to everything wrong PCO does, in this very post there’s plenty, so you are either so fully enamored with the party that you simply don’t believe the facts or you are someone that knows all the dirt and either don’t care or agree, in any of the possibilities there is no prospect for a reasonable conversation, you will keep using PSOL as a reason to try to cool down a movement that has a lot of possibility, it carries some risk, every movement does, opportunists are always a concern, you for one must know them very well, but if we live in fear of opportunism we will live frozen allowing the right to keep growing, we (and I absolutely do not include you in this) need to seize this chance to advance real impactful participation of left forces in contact with the people, and please by all means keep PCO out of this movement, you are not missed.









  • After they lost vughledar (not sure about the spelling) things got extra bad for Ukraine, that city was a very strong fortification, on elevated ground that ensured a lot of surveillance of the surrounding areas and as consequence of the strength of that portion was a crucial point of the supply line for the battle front of two neighboring cities. Russia took almost a year to take the city down, and the consequence is quite dire to Ukraine for not only they lost such a valuable position, but Russia, naturally, now has control of a very strong defensive position that allows powerful support of an extensive area. If you look at the map, from vughledar so Zaporozhye Ukraine will have a hard time defending, and that is no small area.




  • Yes I see this argument but the analysis that suggests that they didn’t sent, or at the very least nearly as much sounds more compelling to me, being that it would be a hard pill to swallow back home for the families of the casualties there, being that there is no direct reason for the involvement of Korea in this war, the different language would also pose a far from irrelevant issue. Furthermore it downplays Russian capacity to solve their own issues, since Russia view this war as an internal affair, and an external help of 10 thousand men would likely be seen as a sort of.cry for help or some weakness of Russia. Therefore I have a hard time believing it, not impossible, but looks unlikely to me.
