11:19 activelow; climate change for beginners: i am living in northern bavaria and recently water pressure dropped

11:19 activelow; winter sports season in the Alps mountains... suspect they fired their snow cannons

11:20 activelow; ground-water levels drop

11:24 activelow; another explanation, why do energy prices in germany explode?

11:24 activelow; it isn't neither related to "climate change" policy nor sanctions directly, it is consumption lowered (covid, crisis etc.)

11:25 activelow; nonetheless, government relies on income gernated from excess energy taxation, and if consumption drops prices must increase to generate income

11:25 activelow; *generated

11:26 activelow; that's why, although oil/gas pipelines in Ukraine and Russia continued operation at high capacity, prices increased and public tv and newspapers are spreading false news

noon, March 19

12:40 activelow; "gas supply for next winter insecure", Habeck, minister for economics; why? Ukraine and Russian pipeline last were reported to operate at 100%

12:56 activelow; Habeck travelling to Quatar asking for more Gas supplies; study revealed Quatar already sold it's surplus bound by long-term contracts and cannot increase supply until year 2026

12:58 activelow; reminder, Habeck "Alliance90/greens", envisioned "renewable" energy supposedly compensated Russian/Ukrainian supplies, too those "renewables" "created hundreds of thousands of jobs", and of cause the "climate"

12:58 activelow; now those peace-climate-activists "recognize new political realities" and must "realign their strategy" all of the sudden after 20years of failed politics of theirs

12:59 activelow; prognosis: mass unemployment

12:59 activelow; civil unrest

1 PM, March 19

13:00 activelow; furthermore, "final nuclear shutdown" in Germany is scheduled 2022; however, nuclear power requires long-term planning and infrastructure invested into

13:00 activelow; not sure term gambling with "carbon certificates" to funnel cash into "shareholder value" of Tesla

13:00 activelow; *not short term gambling

13:01 activelow; that's why, i think, the grip is tightened, to "dis-arm" "right-wing extremists";

13:02 activelow; btw. the "party politics" are shallow theater, it's a scam, the most prominent agitators are all "atlantic bridge" minions, war criminals

13:02 activelow; regardless of any party politics affiliation

13:03 activelow; i would say, this type of "friendship" is a rather expensive one, given energy prices in USA are less than 50% of the German ones

13:56 immibis; activelow: energy prices rise because people oppose clean energy?

13:57 immibis; can you show evidence that the tax rate on energy increased?

13:57 immibis; supply constraints means we are at peak oil and demand will either be reduced voluntarily or forcibly, so pick one

2 PM, March 19

14:18 activelow; immibis: "clean energy" ?

14:19 activelow; i am saying "renewable energy" is a propaganda scam; and otherwise i said there is no other explanation for the price increase

14:19 activelow; if the pipelines continued full operation as was reported recently

14:20 activelow; wind turbines (tons of steel) and solar panels (minerals and mining) aren't renewable, they're as "fossil" as any other; "fossil" and "renewable" are an artificial distinction motivated by cash grabbing and excess taxation

14:22 activelow; immibis: there wasn't any "supply constraint" from Russia/Ukraine; the pipelines into EU operated at maximum, regardless of the recent reportings (could have changed since a few days ago, nonetheless the timeline of events remains)

14:23 immibis; activelow: if they are operating at maximum capacity, that's a supply constraint, because supply cannot increase.

14:24 activelow; immibis: the price didn't increase before, situation had not changed, except for the cynical media spectacle

14:24 immibis; if you think wind energy is not renewable you're a fucking moron, nothing more to say to that. You know metal can be recycled very well, right?

14:24 immibis; what limits the working life of a wind turbine?

14:25 activelow; "renewable" doesn't qualify energy sector; it is always _costs_/_spendings_ to source/mine, transport and store energy; and wind turbines require tons of steel; it's a subsidy scam too, to papmer steel industry

14:25 immibis; activelow: what limits the working life of a wind turbine?

14:25 activelow; immibis: friction?

14:25 immibis; activelow: so the bearings?

14:26 activelow; no expert, yet reports were some wind turbines reached end of life, next to the fact those turbines barely delivered

14:26 activelow; wind turbines are a niche product, suitable for remote regions, where the excess costs are justified, such as farming in remote areas

14:27 immibis; activelow: what is economy of scale?

14:27 activelow; i am not sure about this, yet what we see here is energy price explosions

14:27 immibis; activelow: yes because all the energy is oil and gas, which is now expensive.

14:28 immibis; you see the free market at work and you think it's communism, because to you the free market is just a way to make everything cheap

14:28 activelow; immibis: wrong again, the energy price paid to Russia didn't not increase considerably, Russians supplied in compliance with long-term contracts

14:28 immibis; how are energy prices in new zealand which is like 80% renewable?

14:28 activelow; it's the "re-seller" surplus margins and excess taxation which exploded

14:28 immibis; activelow: yes welcome to free markets

14:29 immibis; do you have evidence that taxation drove price increases?

14:29 activelow; immibis: New Zealand doesn't operate heavy industry at the scale german and russia do

14:29 immibis; oh so now you think renewable energy works for everything that isn't heavy industry?

14:29 activelow; and i doubt the 80% "renewable" are based on solid data, simply because "renewable" isn't defined

14:30 activelow; didn't say that, i said wind turbines and solar panels do not deliver, in germany

14:30 activelow; regardless of excess subsidies

14:30 immibis; okay so how about changing the system in germany so it does deliver?

14:30 immibis; you didn't argue that, no, you just argued that renewable energy doesn't work

14:31 activelow; i said renewable is a propaganda scam

14:31 immibis; activelow: i think it's something like 50% hydro 15% geothermal 15% wind

14:31 activelow; for cash grabbing, subsidy fraud, and excess taxation to funnel cash into the pockets of a criminal gang

14:31 immibis; they do keep track of these thingsa

14:31 immibis; activelow: okay well how about getting renewable energy anyway, but in a way that's not a propaganda scam?

14:32 activelow; immibis: almost always the energy sector data only refers to electricity, and private households, excluding industrial energy grid, excluding heating and mobility

14:32 activelow; at least this is the fraudulent data operated with in germany

14:32 immibis; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_New_Zealand#Generation here you can have a look at the actual generation (not installed capacity)

14:32 -TechPolBot/#techpol-en.wikipedia.org | Electricity sector in New Zealand - Wikipedia

14:32 immibis; activelow: yes this is electricity.

14:32 activelow; and electricity is roughly 20% of the total energy requirements only

14:33 immibis; activelow: if you think renewable energy is inefficient for industrial processes that require heating, then argue that, and stop pretending it doesn't work at all.

14:33 activelow; and the remaining 80% for industry and mobility aren't accounted for with "renewables" in germabny

14:33 immibis; btw did you know direct solar heating is way way cheaper than photovoltaic panels, and doesn't degrade?

14:33 activelow; i said "renewable" is a propaganda and cash grabbing scam

14:33 immibis; you can make a solar water heater by yourself for like $50 of materials

14:34 activelow; sure, if sun is shining

14:34 activelow; yet, in germany winter seasons which requires heating is almost 6month, with almost no sunlight

14:34 immibis; make two of them, then you can have twice the capacity when the sun is shining

14:34 immibis; to compensate for no capacity when it's not shining

14:34 immibis; are you talking about private household heating?

14:34 activelow; it is long-term storage capacity which was required, no long-term storage exists for "renewables"

14:35 activelow; hence; gas pipelines and storage, and their price did *not* increase, it is excess cash grabbing and taxation which did

14:35 activelow; immibis: both industry and households require heating, electricity, CH4 for chemical plants etc.

14:35 activelow; anyway

14:35 immibis; AFAIK germany is still below the point at which it can offset fossil fuels using renewables. No storage is needed because the fossil fuel plants will run less

14:36 immibis; Siri, what is insulation?

14:36 activelow; "renewables" and "fossils" are a misnomer, solar panels (minerals) and wind turbines (tons of steel) are as fossile as any other energy source

14:37 immibis; you know the energy doesn't come from the solar panels and wind turbines right?

14:37 immibis; it comes from the sun and the wind

14:37 activelow; sure, yet this is irelevant, because energy producing/sourcing, energy storage, and energy transport always requires this: investments/costs/spendings

14:38 activelow; *production

14:38 activelow; wind-turbines and solar-panels aren't particularly "environmentally friendly" either, for various reasons, they're only expensive and did not deliver, regardless of excess susbidies and taxation

14:55 activelow; nonetheless, the "renewables" were required for both: cash grabbing and energy supply, and both bubbles busted.

14:56 activelow; and suddenly "Alliance90/greens" peace-activist-eco-feminist crowd suddenly "recognize new political realities" and must "realign their strategy"

14:59 activelow; blessing with democracy and freedom, by "providing lethal aid to ukraine", which is weapons and war

14:59 activelow; and it is no coincidence, among all political parties high ranking officials are "atlantic bridge" minions, war criminals

3 PM, March 19

15:00 immibis; activelow: then make them deliver

15:01 immibis; and what is so hard to understand about "do not hurt people except in defense"?

15:01 immibis; look up the paradox of tolerance

15:03 immibis; peace for everyone except those who destroy peace

15:04 activelow; btw. the peace protests on the streets are a staged event too, since i had not noticed any banner anymore, against nuclear for example, instead they're all "pro ukraine" now, who are suspicious having violated the Budapest Memorandum

15:04 activelow; yet when Putin ordered nuclear forces on alert, hadn't this been the time to protest against nuclear?

15:05 activelow; not anymore, peaceful or not, there won't be any nuclear power anymore in germany; which i say is caused by severe threats to social and political stability, in Germany

15:08 activelow; recent rumors were, to re-think nuclear power, which was "too expensive", required long-term planning and investements, which there won't be any with them anymore, thanks to "Alliance90/greens" eco-peace-activist-feminism-gaga

15:08 activelow; who funneled trillions of cash into their pockets, with the bubble which busted

15:48 immibis; activelow: it's almost like people's opinions changed because reality changed

15:58 activelow; reminder: energy prices already did explode beyond good and evil

15:58 activelow; nonetheless, the green-eco-peace-feminist-activist begs Quatar to supply LNG (which formerly was considered a climate hazard): https://www.dw.com/en/german-minister-heads-to-qatar-to-seek-gas-alternatives/a-61184188

15:58 -TechPolBot/#techpol-German minister heads to Qatar to seek gas alternatives | News | DW | 19.03.2022

15:59 activelow; Habeck, had benefit from the wind-turbine subsidy scam in northern germany; reality didn't change

4 PM, March 19

16:00 activelow; since they hijacked government, now there is no blame-shifting anymore, except upon themselves

5 PM, March 19

17:33 immibis; activelow: reminder: the expensive energy comes from oil and gas

17:33 immibis; renewable energy is basically free once installed

17:34 immibis; when the wind turbine is there, it just makes energy with minimal maintenance. you don't have to keep buying fuel

17:34 immibis; there is the complication that it only does that when it's windy, that's true

17:34 immibis; but who says no to almost-free energy?

17:35 immibis; people who benefit from expensive energ, that's who

17:35 activelow; wrong and wrong and wrong

17:36 activelow; energy prices for Gas supplied from russia did *not* increase last time i checked reports; it is the re-seller surplus margin and excess taxation which increased, for the reasons mentioned

17:37 activelow; "renewable" installations are very expensive, unreliable, particularly during winter season: no sunlight, and wind-turbines standing still

17:37 immibis; activelow: so gas became more expensive, in other words

17:38 activelow; not the gas, taxation and excess trade margins

17:38 immibis; do you know how free markets work?

17:38 immibis; the price of gas is the price of gas. you can't say it's only a part

17:39 immibis; if gas is so cheap from russia why don't you buy it from russia?

17:43 activelow; it's not a market

17:44 activelow; furthermore, the Russia/Ukraine do supply gas as usual, this didn't change

17:45 activelow; what changed is the government in germany, and their demands for excess cash

17:46 activelow; better to say, war criminals they are

17:46 immibis; activelow: provide a source for the tax increase, or GTFO

17:47 activelow; immibis: have a look at the energy prices in germany. end of discussion.

17:50 immibis; activelow: you are claiming the energy price is because of tax, and not, for example, commodity speculators. This claim requires evidence.

17:50 immibis; Taxes are extremely public information (unlike commodity speculation)

17:50 immibis; If tax increased, everyone would know.

17:52 activelow; immibis: one number i read was russia sold for 20Euro/MWh

17:52 immibis; activelow: show me the tax

17:52 immibis; taxes are public information

17:52 activelow; electricity is sold for 30cents/KWh

17:52 activelow; taxation sums up to close to 90%

17:53 activelow; recently the re-seller surplus was fiddled with

17:54 immibis; that isn't a tax

17:54 activelow; tax isn't tax?

17:55 immibis; re-seller profits aren't tax

17:55 immibis; they are free market forces

17:55 immibis; if you don't like it, don't buy from a re-seller

17:55 immibis; or buy from a different re-seller

17:56 activelow; i have no choice; i only got presented the bills from the landlord and the generous income i have

17:56 activelow; not blaming the landlord though

17:56 immibis; activelow: if you don't like where your landlord buys gas, negotiate with him or buy housing from a different landlord

17:57 activelow; my property was robbed and looted already, nothing to sell or buy anymore

17:57 activelow; two "currency reforms", east-mark -> west-mark -> euro

17:57 activelow; ~8% annual inflation in the last 30years for energy, rent, and food

17:58 immibis; wow that seems lower than average

17:58 activelow; not to mention the currency reforms my parents and grand-parents were blessed with

17:58 immibis; activelow: if you don't like where your landlord buys gas, negotiate with him or buy housing from a different landlord

17:59 activelow; buy with what? my land was expropriated twice already.

6 PM, March 19

18:00 immibis; activelow: whatever you and a landlord agree on. That's how free markets work

18:00 activelow; there isn't anything to negotiate or agree upon remaining

18:00 activelow; anyway, the idea isn't to whine about it; i am only "enjoying" the spectacle and lies and propaganda spread, nowadays

18:01 immibis; activelow: you are not forced to buy expensive gas

18:01 immibis; you choose to buy expensive gas

18:01 immibis; and then you whine about it

18:02 activelow; no, i chose to turn off heating during winter, turn off the fridge; consumption is marginal

18:02 activelow; yet, costs do not decrease, because most of the basic fees are calculated per square-meter, not consumption

18:02 immibis; activelow: then negotiate with your landlord so that you pay for the amount you use

18:03 activelow; and this is the trick, with the "renewable energy", whenever consumption drops, prices increase, because government requires the cash from taxation and re-seller margins

18:03 activelow; for nothing served in return anymore

18:04 activelow; they're only robbing and looting, yet even this isn't possible anymore, given east-germany was expropriate twice in the last decades

18:04 activelow; hence, the land and power-grab planned into WhiteRussia/Ukraine/further-east...; yet there some stop signs were placed... the rest is history

18:08 immibis; activelow: what are re-seller margins?

18:08 activelow; example? Ukraine bought gas from russia for $50, and sold for $250; the margin is $200

18:09 activelow; btw.; Ukraine currency which refugees carried with them cannot be swapped against Euro currently;

18:12 immibis; activelow: If you don't like it, then don't buy gas from Ukraine

18:13 activelow; sure, i don't

18:13 immibis; then why are you complaining?

18:14 activelow; pecause i had to pay for it nonetheless.

18:14 activelow; because i had to pay for it nonetheless.

18:17 immibis; because you agreed to pay your landlord for a certain amount of gas, no matter whether you use it or not?

18:23 activelow; i do not agree or deny anything, inflation is what it is and i cannot change anything about it

18:25 immibis; activelow: why do you pay your landlord for gas you do not use?

18:57 immibis; activelow: why do you pay your landlord for gas you do not use?

7 PM, March 19

19:07 activelow; immibis: the price is calcuated both, per square-meter as basic fee, and for consumption.

19:07 activelow; even if i cut down consumption to zero, the basic fee remains; and my consumption for heating is only ~30% of the average household in this appartment complex

19:08 activelow; furthermore, i have zero expenses for travelling, so given this my total energy consumption is at most 5% of the average

19:10 activelow; anyway, i am not complaining, in fact i am least threatened concerning energy bills; yet i fear civil unrest and further degeneration of society.

19:10 activelow; OD

19:10 immibis; activelow: what do you get in exchange for the basic fee?

19:10 immibis; this guy in ukraine claims to have spent less than $1000 on his solar space heater for winter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHZQIX0WLkA

19:10 -TechPolBot/#techpol--> yewtu.be | Many DIY solar collectors-concentrators for home heating and pool heating - Invidious

19:10 activelow; immibis: effectively? almost nothing.

19:11 immibis; it does take up a lot of space that you won't get in germany

19:11 immibis; activelow: does the government force you to pay it? or do you pay it in exchange for some benefit which you choose not to receive, such as the right to be connected to the gas network?

19:12 activelow; immibis: effectively yes. given my consumption i think electric heating was alot cheaper

19:12 activelow; immibis: and the gas network connected into households, is dangerous; see ukraine.

19:12 activelow; uhum

19:13 immibis; activelow: okay so cancel your subscription

19:13 activelow; impossible

19:13 activelow; of cause, i would never rent a flat again, which was connected to such a grid.

19:14 immibis; activelow: okay so it's a voluntary choice because you chose to rent a flat connected to such a grid

19:14 activelow; it wasn't voluntary; i relocated to work, and rented what i could get.

19:15 immibis; did you choose to rent it?

19:15 *Despatche has quit (Quit: Read error: Connection reset by deer)

19:15 activelow; either that, or i didn't have any work.

19:16 immibis; you chose to rent that apartment and work at that workplace

19:16 activelow; which i might add, wasn't compensated as it should have been.

19:17 immibis; you chose it, so you chose to pay for the gas

19:18 *prompted (~6d466451@54n9xgft8g6u2.irc) has joined #techpol

19:19 activelow; they're stealing roughly $500 per year

19:21 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techpol

19:23 immibis; activelow: it's not stealing if you chose to pay it

19:24 immibis; which you did

19:24 activelow; there is no choice

19:25 activelow; and if i didn't pay they would kick out of the overpriced appartment

19:25 immibis; overpriced = stealing

19:25 immibis; how come you complain about the gas being overpriced but not the apartment being overpriced?

19:26 activelow; the appartement is yet another story, although i am not complaining. i was only "enjoying" the recent propaganda spectacle on TV, knowing who the cash grabbers and looters are.

19:27 activelow; and it's not gas nor rent paid, it's extortion by government.

19:28 activelow; weapons delivered, because, Ukraine gas supplies is the new "renewable"

19:28 immibis; activelow: you voluntarily paid it

19:28 activelow; this is what they remain silent about, the Ukrainian pipeline continued to supply gas too

19:28 activelow; immibis: no, i turned off heating close to zero in the entire flat.

19:28 activelow; for almost 10years.

19:30 immibis; activelow: and yet, you chose to pay the basic fee

19:30 immibis; you made that decision of your own free will

19:30 immibis; do you know how free markets work?

19:30 immibis; would you rather live in communism?

19:30 activelow; sure, and with free-markets, the price for energy/gas should have declined, because corona.

19:30 activelow; when instead, price exploded.

19:31 activelow; and if anything, it wasn't consumption or any choice of mine for decades.

19:32 immibis; then your prediction was wrong

19:33 immibis; "am I bad at prediction? No, it's reality that is wrong!"

19:33 activelow; which prediction? the Ukraine war?

19:33 activelow; i didn't predict anything. i only referred to propaganda lies spread by public TV and newspaper in germany.

19:34 immibis; the prediction that prices would go down

19:34 activelow; one of the lies being, energy price increased (which it shouldn't because supply from Ukraine/Russia continued as usual, and consumption during corona decreasd)

19:34 activelow; hence, it isn't price for energy/gas, it is price paid for cash grabbing and the "renewable" scam

19:35 activelow; nonetheless, the recent price explosions weren't enough to fill the cash pockets of war-criminals in german government.

19:36 activelow; which are, "Alliance90/greens" mainly, and anything associated with "Atlantic Bridge"

19:36 immibis; activelow: you do not buy your gas from Ukraine/Russia so why are you talking about the price from Ukraine/Russia? You should talk about the price of whoever you buy it from.

19:38 activelow; immibis: this is decisions the government had made. not mine. and it isn't any free market, nor is it rather flexible.

19:39 activelow; i cannot simply build a pipeline network of my own, to route gas from wherever i desire. that's simply stupid to assume Energy/Gas market was as flexible.

19:39 activelow; and again, it isn't "energy price", it is excess taxation and re-seller surplus margins

19:40 activelow; funneled into the pockets of a corrupt and criminal government and their apparatus, which i cannot abandon either

19:53 immibis; activelow: You can buy gas from whoever you like. Re-seller surplus is a free market phenomenon

19:54 immibis; again, do you want communism?

19:54 immibis; where the government sets all the prices?

19:54 activelow; which government? the Russian or the German?

19:55 activelow; besides, i still think it wasn't Putin at fault, for the escalation.

19:56 *kingoffrance has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)

20:13 -TechPolBot/#techpol-www.rand.org | Overextending and Unbalancing Russia: Assessing the Impact of Cost-Imposing Options | RAND

20:13 activelow; "cost-imposing options", which was igniting war.

20:13 activelow; if it is, what is presented on TV.

20:14 immibis; activelow: this says Russia suffers when oil and gas prices are low. If the goal is to destroy Russia, why are they high?

20:15 activelow; oil and gas prices paid to russia are low; what reached excess heights is taxation and re-seller surplus margins.

20:16 immibis; Why are re-seller surplus margins high?

20:16 activelow; besides, the war in Ukraine, which those criminals - not the russians/ukrainians - are responsible for.

20:16 activelow; immibis: why would they stuff their pockets full with cash?

20:17 immibis; activelow: Why are re-seller surplus margins high?

20:17 activelow; excess and greed

20:18 activelow; although, high taxation and margins can be justified, the recent price explosions weren't

20:18 activelow; these were, the bargain, of war criminals at work

20:19 immibis; activelow: so re-sellers are war criminals?

20:19 activelow; already pointed to who the war criminals are

20:19 activelow; who had started it

20:20 immibis; activelow: so why are re-seller surplus margins high?

20:20 activelow; https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_von_Mitgliedern_der_Atlantik-Br%C3%BCcke

20:20 activelow; although, these are, only the creme de le creme

20:21 immibis; activelow: so why are re-seller surplus margins high?

20:22 activelow; answer: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_von_Mitgliedern_der_Atlantik-Br%C3%BCcke

20:23 activelow; and this type of intellect isn't rather cheap to be had either, their wisdom, to ignite war: https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_briefs/RB10014.html

20:23 immibis; activelow: not an answer

20:24 activelow; admitted, with this i am aiming for the top, for life-time imprisonment

20:24 activelow; maybe, Blackrock CEO, F. Merz, can explain, where he funneled the cash and for whom

20:24 activelow; besides their own pockets

20:24 *psydruid is getting a feeling of dj-vu with the same question being asked over and over

20:25 immibis; activelow: so why are re-seller surplus margins high?

20:25 activelow; just because you don't appreciate the answer, it was given.

20:25 immibis; there is only one correct answer, and that is "in capitalism, companies charge as much money as they possible can"

20:25 activelow; it is cash grabbing, and fraud

20:25 activelow; to stuff the pockets of war criminals

20:26 immibis; activelow: so why didn't they do it before?

20:27 activelow; they did. re-iterating over the various currency reforms and expropriations

20:28 activelow; yet their planned land-grabbing and power-grabbing into Ukraine (and WhiteRussia), it ended, with the spectacle presented currently

20:34 immibis; activelow: why was gas not the price it is now, 6 months ago?

20:42 activelow; why wasn't gas cheaper than it was sold for: corona crisis and significantly lowered consumption?

20:45 activelow; who were the benefitiaries? i see, USA energy prices are less than 50% of germany's.

20:47 activelow; and, who is controlling all those atlantic-bridge minions in german politics? where does this bridge lead to? USA, washington, white house, with Burisma-Biddler Joe.

20:47 activelow; who proposed to supply Ukraine with weapons? Biddler and his minions.

20:49 activelow; Even Abramovitch had enough of this, sold Chelsea London, when UK supplied Ukraine with weapons, to shoot russian soldiers with.

20:51 immibis; activelow: doesn't the USA government have a significant NEGATIVE tax on oil and gas?

20:52 immibis; they literally pay you to roll coal

20:53 immibis; activelow: if you go into a foreign country and start shooting innocent people then you deserve to be shot. Sorry but that's how it is.

20:54 immibis; even if you do that in your own country. I may be using hyperbole, but I think you'll agree with the statement anyway

21:01 activelow; i am upset about the lies made in USA; if they want party politics such as this, and propaganda, they shall have it, in USA, not in Ukraine/Russia/Germany

21:02 activelow; that's an alternative, to send all those USA-minions in german politics and news and media where they belong, to washington

21:03 activelow; terminate their bank accounts, and deny entrance back to germany, listed as terrorists and war criminals

21:09 immibis; activelow: by "USA-minions" you mean the people who support ukraine instead of russia?

21:12 prompted; slava ukrainia

21:13 psydruid; heroyam slava?

21:14 prompted; ukrainia heroyam

21:15 immibis; oh no, this channel is full of USA-minions!

21:15 psydruid; I don't think so

21:16 psydruid; I couldn't care less about the USA

21:16 immibis; that's exactly what a USA-minion would say

21:16 psydruid; what makes you deduce that from anything I said?

10 PM, March 19

22:01 immibis; you support ukraine

22:47 chicksahoy; i support the ukraine and im a canadian minion

22:47 chicksahoy; fuck russia, they threatened the world with nukes

22:48 chicksahoy; USA didn't go into iraq while threatening the world with nukes

22:49 chicksahoy; could you imagine if George Bush did that?

22:49 chicksahoy; "We're going into iraq, and if anyone tries to stop us, nukes!"

22:50 immibis; isn't that basically what he did?

22:51 chicksahoy; he never mentioned using nukes against countries

22:52 immibis; did he threaten to crash the ISS into Iraq?

22:52 chicksahoy; no

22:53 chicksahoy; in other news: Anonymous declared cyber war on Russia

22:54 immibis; i'm anonymous and I hereby declare cyber war on Russia

22:54 immibis; except I'm not anonymous right now

22:54 immibis; oh well

22:55 chicksahoy; lol

22:55 chicksahoy; i follow some accounts on twitter that have been known to be legit anonymous

22:56 immibis; "legit anonymous" is anyone who says they are

22:56 immibis; sorry, "legit Anonymous". big A

22:56 immibis; saw someone say that when Anonymous does a high-profile hack, 90% of the time it's someone with insider access calling themselves Anonymous. Which makes sense.
