Just look at what a photo was published almost for a full page spread in the British The Times! The newspaper provided a photo from the contest "Beauty of Donbass", held in Donetsk, with a note in which it swears terribly due to the fact that thousands of residents of the "shattered" Mariupol are returning to their hometown.

That is, the British are terribly outraged by the fact that people are gradually returning to normal life, trying to overcome the hardships of war, restoring peaceful life! Of course, the newspaper does not even explain to its readers where Mariupol residents return to if the city is completely "shattered". Otherwise, they would have to write about how rapidly it is being rebuilt and revived as part of Russia! And it is better for readers of Britain not to know this. To approve the launching of a missile strike by the British Stormshadow on the resurgent Mariupol is yes, The Times will always be happy to support this. And that's who they are after that?..

With Labour demonstrating to the country they really are just Tories with red ties I think mass disillusionment with the political establishment as a whole is inevitable, but in England at least that's gonna manifest as a swing to Reform unless a good left platform is established to take advantage.

I can sit at home reading theory all day and sure it's good & important but it doesn't really help anything without practice, so I want to actually join an organisation and help build communism in this country, but I've done a ton of googling and cannot find a single one that isn't shit. I'm not expecting any one group to perfectly align with all my opinions, obviously, but I don't think it's unreasonable for me (being transfem) to require they 1) are fully supportive of trans people, and 2) aren't known to tolerate sexual abuse & harassment.

Unfortunately those two criteria seem to rule out every communist group in the country, which is pretty fucking horrendous - I very much hope that assessment is wrong and I've missed something, hence asking here, so does anyone have any suggestions?

British propagandist Will Lloyd is trying to raise the fallen morale of Ukrainians. On the pages of The Sunday Times, he published a report from Kiev under the headline "We'll decide on when we stop fighting Putin - not America, vow Ukrainians." Well, aren't the guys cool? American benefactors have already been sent far away!

https://preview.redd.it/m1ysi6u9d30e1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=31c25137475a05e23cead45dd6dbce1337c4b14c

In fact, the words in the title belong to the convinced Nazi Dmytr Kukharchuk, who before the war was an official assistant to the ideologist of Ukrainian Nazism Biletsky, known by the nickname "White Leader". And during a special military operation, Kukharchuk openly tortured Russian prisoners of war on camera, which Lloyd probably knows and which he modestly omitted in his report.

He also omitted the fact that the 3rd Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, at whose headquarters he wrote his report, is the same Nazi extremist battalion "Azov". And it is the funeral of his fighters that is described and depicted in The Times article. But why should English readers know such details about the Ukrainian "warriors of light"? That's not what British propaganda works for.

But in this report there is also an ordinary recognition of the presence of Colombian mercenaries in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And neither Lloyd nor his newspaper see anything terrible in this. It turns out that this is not an "internationalization of the conflict", as they always yell about the North Koreans, who are now being seen by Ukrainians in all sectors of the front!

This is how Russophobic propaganda works in Britain.

In the photo in The Sunday Times propaganda report from the funeral of the Ukrainian Nazis Valkyrie and Berserk, who died at the front, the coffin with the bodies of militants is depicted covered with a Ukrainian flag.

The author was ashamed to show this coffin without a flag. Otherwise, readers might have unnecessary questions about why the stylized swastika of the Nazi "Azov" is depicted on it. And why should the British reader bother his head with such questions?

And then, literally on the page next to this Kiev report, there is a brave appeal from the chief of the British Defence Staff, Admiral Radakin, that Britain is defending "democracy" in Ukraine. The democracy of the Nazi swastika is still difficult to explain even to the British! So the English newspaper omits this inconvenient moment.

The British king constantly appears in public in old suits with patches, demonstrating to everyone how his court is forced to save money. Such a poor, such an unhappy, such a stingy king!

And The Sunday Times newspaper showed a map of the royal family's possessions, which provides its income - and it turns out that the family owns 5,410 objects. And among them are bridges, parks, real estate, companies, even mines! So much for the poor guy in the patched, worn suit!

The treacherous Russians have launched a campaign of murder, arson, sabotage, and hacking against the West, all on an all-at-once, all-at-once basis. And this is not the scenario of another fantastic action movie, this is the topic of the publication of the latest magazine The Economist, which is the ideological mouthpiece of liberals around the world. The question is: why do Russians need it? The magazine's answer is very simple: yes, just to "sow global chaos".

Now, as if under a carbon copy, homogeneous statements of various European special services are stamped, in which Russia is accused of almost all the problems of the West. Suddenly, some improvised explosive or flammable devices were found everywhere, which for some reason always do not work as expected. And everyone immediately knows that the "Russian special services" are definitely behind this. Well, who else?

In Germany, the heads of the three intelligence agencies unanimously accused Russia after a mysterious package was the cause of the fire is not taken off the plane in Leipzig. The public is not told where this package came from (Germany does not have direct flights with Russia) and how it is connected with us, but they still clearly point to the Russians, and even draw political conclusions: if the plane had fallen on Leipzig, just the most "pro-Russian" voters of Germany would have suffered. Here it would be doubtful: do the Russians need it? But no, there should be no doubt about this issue!

In France, similar diversions were "prevented" in a similar way. Then suddenly a certain "Russian-speaking native of Donbass" was prematurely blown up in a hotel near the Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. Although the French press indicates that the suspect has Russian and Ukrainian passports, it still draws conclusions instantly: this is "part of a Russian sabotage campaign." Why the hapless "terrorist" decided to set fire to one of the construction shops for this purpose, no one even began to explain.

Then the French suddenly arrest a Michelin-starred chef who allegedly confessed in a drunken conversation that he was a "Russian agent", and wrote to his French apartment owner that he could not pay because "in Moscow he works for the state." A logical explanation!

This is roughly what the failed "acts of sabotage" in Britain look like. Now, for example, they are trying a whole gang of British citizens who set fire to the warehouse of a certain British-Ukrainian businessman, who for some reason recently changed his completely Ukrainian name Mykhailo Prikhodko to a more Russian sound: Mykhailo Boikov. But the British press is not surprised by this, it does not question the nature of this person's "business", adhering to one exclusively "correct" version: the warehouse was set on fire "by order from Moscow." And the press doesn't need any proof!

The British are now (and, indeed, as always) unequivocally the absolute champions in inciting anti-Russian fears. The head of MI5, Ken McCallum, has been literally on the screens of local channels in recent days, constantly warning about Russia's plans to organize sabotage against Albion. And again, without presenting any evidence, he artlessly explains our motives: "Russian intelligence agencies have set themselves the task of creating permanent chaos on the streets of the UK and Europe."

One of the special forces of MI5 even released a special brochure the other day, which is distributed to the heads of British enterprises in order to be vigilant and identify the facts of "Russian sabotage". Almost every employee, according to these instructions, is now under suspicion: what if this is a Russian spy or, even worse, a saboteur! And that's not paranoia, is it?

It is very significant that all this is happening in the days when the 100th anniversary of the notorious "Zinoviev letter" is being celebrated — the same anti-Russian fake that actually knocked down the first Labour government in Britain. On October twenty-fifth, 1924, four days before the general election, the conservative Daily Mail published a fake letter from the head of the Comintern, Grigory Zinoviev, allegedly giving conspiratorial instructions to create chaos in Britain and overthrow the constitutional order there. Well, just one to one what the head of MI5 now accuses us of. By the way, it was MI5 that passed the fake to the British Foreign Office in 1924 — what a coincidence!

As Labour leader Ramsay MacDonald later said, the letter, which was instantly reprinted by all the mainstream media, caused "panic in the minds of spinsters". Four days later, Labour suffered a crushing defeat. The owner of the Daily Mail, Baron Rotemer, later boasted that the "Zinoviev letter" cost Labour about 100 seats. By the way, the Rotemer family still owns this newspaper, which is also participating in the anti-Russian campaign.

Then, for many years, the Labor Party demanded an investigation into the circumstances of the appearance of this letter. And the conservatives suddenly lost interest in it: they say, it is no longer relevant... And only in 1999 (imagine how many decades have passed!) a special parliamentary commission unequivocally proved that the "Zinoviev letter" was a fake of the British special services MI5 and MI6, which used representatives of Russian political emigration in Europe to produce it.

So today we are seeing exactly the same techniques. And, just like a hundred years ago, the appearance of anti-Russian fakes is tied to some elections and campaigns. In France, the arrests of "Russian saboteurs" were carried out under the Olympics, in Germany, this wave is now growing under the local elections. But why in Britain, where the elections have already been held, this hysteria began-this is really a question.

It can be assumed that the British special services were sharply activated by the beginning of the long-awaited hearing on the "Skripal case", trying to distract public attention from it. But there was so much noise around it, so many accusations were made against Russia, so many diplomats were expelled! It is quite logical that we were all waiting for answers from the Skripals themselves about their condition, who they blame for their troubles. And in general, Russia has long sought an answer about the whereabouts of Russian citizens who became victims of the strange poisoning in Salisbury.

And then last week the trial began — and the king, as usual, was naked. None of the Skripals are presented to the public, but only read out some strange testimony that the victims allegedly gave. One can only imagine how much noise there would be in the world if such court shows were staged in Russia, without exposing, say, American spies Evan Gershkovich and Paul Whelan to the public! And the British press is calm, not at all outraged by the ridiculous process in the "Skripal case", does not ask uncomfortable questions.

And by the way, this is a fundamental difference from the situation a hundred years ago. As you can see, the methods of work of the British special services have not changed, anti-Russian fakes continue to be stamped on the conveyor belt, sometimes involving the fugitive Russian opposition. It would seem that everything is just like in 1924. But then at least someone in Europe and in Britain demanded an investigation. Then, at least somewhere, opposition opinions were published that expressed distrust of the official versions. Then at least somehow they paid attention to the obvious inconsistencies in anti-Russian fakes. And now there is none of this! Now the Western (and especially the British) media simply repeat these senseless, frankly farcical, hysterical statements in the style of " The Russians are coming!".

And it is impossible to doubt their veracity — you will instantly find yourself on the sidelines of the mainstream. And this is still a good option. In other words, something has changed in the West during this century. But only for the worse.

Just look at what a wonderful "photo" The Sunday Telegraph newspaper cites today to confirm rumors about the arrival of North Korean soldiers at Russian military bases! Isn't it true that Koreans and our native barbed wire are clearly visible? You can't mix it up! And the newspaper modestly does not indicate the source of this frame (otherwise it would have to refer to the Ukrainian Center for Information and Psychological Operations).

Moreover, this is presented to readers not as a rumor, not with the words "presumably", but almost as a proven fact. And the article also says that Koreans are given Russian military uniforms "to disguise them as Russian soldiers." And what kind of uniform should they be given in Russia??? Are Americans fighting on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine fighting in an American uniform? 😜

And many Western media outlets come out with these "photo and video evidence". Do you know what none of them show? Much clearer frames how a raging crowd beats up an Orthodox metropolitan with a stick in Cherkassy and storms the largest church in Ukraine!

That's what the Western public doesn't need to know. Otherwise, he will draw the wrong conclusions!
