irony is dead
The spymasters criticised the “reckless campaign of sabotage across Europe being waged by Russian intelligence, and its cynical use of technology to spread lies and disinformation designed to drive wedges between us”.

The "Our government doesn't spread propaganda" joke about the CIA guy and the KGB guy.
"there's danger of kids getting ran over", say drunk drivers union chief
Right? All this crap about "Rules based order" is very "Say that out loud to yourself, slowly".
That's the most hilarious part of all this. The whole unravelling started when NATO refused to respect Russia's red lines in Ukraine. Before the war, it was simply taken as a given that NATO was the strongest military force in the world, and that anybody who dared stand against it would be swiftly crushed. Western economic system was considered to be central to the global economy, and any countries that were cut off from it were left in dire straights.
Nobody, including Russia, wanted to challenge either of these assumptions. Yet, once they were put to the test, it became quickly apparent that neither of these notions held much water. At this point there's no way to put toothpaste back in the tube because the collapse of western led world order is a self-reinforcing phenomenon. No country actually wanted to be subjugated by the west, they just didn't have a choice before. Now that this choice materialized in from of BRICS, we see countries rushing to join a new economic bloc. Meanwhile, western military presence is being steadily pushed out of Africa and West Asia.
The Gauls are not paying tribute which undermines our ability to defend the Gauls from our legions.
Lmao fuck off you cold war era decrepit ghouls. Death to the west
They’re right, they’re just leaving out the part where they are the ones causing it.
Yeah who exactly is responsible for not only denying some sort of Marshall Plan for the former Soviet states but then also looting them exacerbating the economic collapse which paved the way for the right wing nationalists? The nationalists they initially supported?
Britain and US face “unprecedented array of threats”.
Huh, I wonder if it has anything to do with the whole war-is-our-only-industry idea? Turns out when mass destruction is your one-trick-pony, you end up making a few enemies along the way.
And we're all wondering who did this?
