"Victory in the field begins in the factory."

#Zelensky 's first stop upon arrival in the #USA was an ammunition factory in #Scranton.

#US #Ukraine #Zelenskyy #Russia #WarInRussia #War_in_Russia

Look into the future:

#Beirut and #Lebanon 🇱🇧 still have some beauty left!

#Hezbollah, which has been attacking #Israel (since October 8, 2023!) probably wants to turn Lebanon into a second #Gaza.

Stop Hezbollah, disarm or destroy Hezbollah, save Lebanon. 🙏🤲

#Russia 🇷🇺 uses non-military methods of war (#disinformation, #sabotage, #hacking) for their interests.This includes creating an atmosphere of fear in the west = #nuclear threat.

Obviously empty words:
1.generals are not suicidal-aware of his weakness in all aspects
2. China tells them "no"
3. ALL previous "red lines" in #Ukraine crossed

Like the N.Korea or Iran, they love videos where they launch BIG missiles! But now the filming didn't work out for them.Again. #Sarmat 4 of 5 attempts failed.

Yesterday was an important anniversary that supporters of #Russia (Soviet Union) do not like to remember:

September 17, 1939 was the day when the Soviets enthusiastically joined the Second World War, on the side of their ally - Nazi Germany.

That's why in Russia they don't like to talk about the Second World War, which they helped start.They prefer to talk about the Patriotic War, that is, the events after they were betrayed and attacked by their former ally.

@akurilov @gimulnautti

When the Russians (Soviets) started World War 2 with a joint attack (along with Hitler) on Poland in September 1939,it was direct military cooperation in illegal aggression.
Nothing to compare with the defensive war of the Finns.

Look: Finnish soldiers did not invade Europe alongside the Germans to conquer new territories and entire nations, but Russians did!
Stalin's and Hitler's soldiers marched together in Europe during illegal aggression.

🧵 A thread that I will call "#RussianWorld". 🚭🚬🔥🏚️

Let's have the pictures/memes all together.

So the basic theme:
Why all the opponents of liberal #democracy, free #Ukraine, #NATO/#OTAN, #EU, and also all lovers of #Putin 's system etc - why don't they actually want to live in #Russia?

Feel free to add more #photos/#memes in the comments.

The phenomenon in brief:

#RussianWorld

🇨🇿 #PragueSpring 1/2

56 year ago, in 1968:

#Russia (and the countires totally controlled and occupied by #Moscow back then) attacked #Czechoslovakia with tanks under the pretext that they were going to fight "against the revanchist fascist revolution".

That sounds familiar, right?

@NeonPurpleStar

Yes, the Baltic countries are ahead - they have their own experience. The Americans also thought rationally and warned that it could end badly...

One of the positive consequences of recent years is that the Baltic countries have gained a strong voice in European politics (and a real defense capacity guaranteed by allies - supported by deployed NATO troops)

And the good thing is that the rest of Europe has also learned (except for the Germany 🧐 ) lesson.

Do you agree?

Everyone who participated in #Nordstream / #Nordstream2 construction despite the fact that #Russia has proven to be an aggressive & dangerous & untrustworthy state (invaded 2 pro-european countries #Georgia, #Ukraine)

should be prosecuted for undermining European security!⚖️

#Elonmusk's disastrous week on #Twitter.

I haven't seen a #Simpsons #meme on this topic yet, so here it is:

If someone says that it's Israel's fault that there is no water in #Gaza:

Gaza could have water! 💧 The pipes were built with #EU money. But Hamas dug them up and turned into #rockets for their #terrorist attacks! 🩸

Hamas caused the water shortage..and #Israel ? 🇮🇱 provided free #electricity and #water for #civilians in Gaza/ #Palestine 🇵🇸

Don't be fooled by terrorists

@Gargron
From my amateur point of view I fear that GIFs / videos will swallow 90% of storage space in the future :blobsweats:

@Gargron
Hello Eugen, first of all,
I appreciate your work!

But now there are tens of thousands of people on #mastodon.online who are NEW users :mastodon: and don't know what's going on :blobugh:

It would be good to make some kind of official #notification (or at least a post) to all #mastodon.online users with information when they can expect the #server to be up and running again, or at least that it's still down....
Good Luck!

Welcome @DrEagleTalon @tracyfrey !

Just for general overview, I recommend starting here, as I did a few days ago:

https://mastodon.social/@stux@mstdn.social and https://mstdn.social/@feditips

As you may already know, this isn't typical soc.network with 1website,1application or 1owner.

There are no (manipulative) algorithms on Mastodon
=what you see on your homepage depends on who you follow and where, doesn't matter the number of likes/shares/hashtags/followers!
See how does it work here:

@DrEagleTalon

It depends a lot on your preferences like general interests, langauges, politics, locality, fun-club...
I'm relatively new on Mastodon too, so hard to say.

Try this: https://fedi.directory/tag (not so big list, but useful if you are searching for a very specific domain like "cycling", "fantasy" or "astrophotography...."
