Become an Anarchist or Forever Hold Your Peace

Neither courts nor laws will suffice to halt the descent into autocracy. Massive numbers of people will have to take direct action on their own initiative—in other words, to become anarchists.

European leaders back Ukraine as Trump reaches out to Russia
submitted by https://lemmy.ca/u/breakfastmtn
The prime ministers of Greece, Spain and the United Kingdom sided with Ukraine’s government on Saturday amid fears that Kyiv is being frozen out of peace talks between the Kremlin and US President Donald Trump.
Though Russia launched a full-scale invasion into its neighbor in February 2022, Trump this week appeared to blame Ukraine for starting the conflict. He also labeled Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a “dictator,” and said he didn’t need to be present during peace talks.

Donald Trump Was Recruited by the KGB Under Codename ‘Krasnov’ Claims Former Soviet Spy Chief
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/realitista
A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.
In an extraordinary post on Facebook on 20 February, Alnur Mussayev – who used to run the successor to the Soviet-era KGB in Kazakhstan – claimed that he was personally aware of Trump’s recruitment by the agency in 1987.
The recruitment, he said, was undertaken by his own KGB department. One of the key roles of that department was to acquire intelligence through business leaders in Western countries.

I got out of bed at 5:15. Thorin spends most of his nights sleeping on the couch these days. So when I get dressed, I turn on the lights in the living room, and as soon as I do, he starts squeaking at me. He’s such a sweet dude.
I took this in 2016, and I think it’s still my favorite picture of him.

He’s so chill. Nothing bothering him. That’s who he’s always been.
New Zealand says China fired live rounds in new navy drills
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MicroWave
Summary
China’s navy fired live rounds in the Tasman Sea for a second straight day, according to New Zealand’s defense minister.
New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon confirmed the navy was monitoring and tracking the three Chinese vessels—comprising a frigate, a cruiser, and a supply tanker—which previously disrupted commercial flights.
While neither Australia nor New Zealand allege any violation of international law, both governments criticize Beijing’s inadequate advance notice.
Australia has demanded a satisfactory explanation, stating that 12-24 hours’ warning is standard practice for ensuring safety in international waters.
