Welcome again to everybody. Make yourself at home. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is the weekly discussion thread.
☭ Matrix homeserver and space
☭ Theory discussion group on /c/theory@lemmygrad.ml
☭ Find theory on ProleWiki, marxists.org, Anna's Archive, libgen
This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
I don't understand how the Russians are supposed to be doing this all the way over in Belgium. Not only is it pointless, it would be an extreme waste of resources. Not even of the drones themselves but of the human resources.
If they have agents embedded in Western Europe why would they be so stupid as to waste those assets on such pointless stunts that only help the Europeans increase the level of paranoia and militarization? What do they realistically even gain from it? There are much better ways to gain intel that is actually relevant to Russia.
The dysfunction of Belgian drone defenses is totally irrelevant to Russia, they aren't ever going to need to drone strike Belgium. If they were to probe NATO defenses they would do it in the Baltics, Romania and Poland, where they may actually need to strike at some point.
And why would they risk their agent network being burned on such a childish stunt? It's not like it's impossible (for a competent country) to find out from where the drones are being flown. People have been arrested before for flying their hobby drones over restricted areas in many other countries.
So, sorry but the "Russia theory" makes zero sense and anyone who continues to insist that this is a serious possibility just loses credibility in my eyes.
