"...Before the full invasion, I was just a civilian social worker. I never thought I would be a soldier. But I had to go and fight.

All I want is that German psychologists, teachers, and lawyers never have to go to the army. Never die in #war.

For this, please support #Ukraine now.

How do you know these Drones were Russian? Did you receive their RemoteIDs?

@musevg @oneiros And you assume not. Maybe you think you're being careful. Maybe you're just in denial

I assume there are multiple possible sponsors for such attacks, e.g. RU, CN, IR, KP… maybe even Project 2025.
For obvious reasons RU is first on my list, but it's not the whole list.
And I don't know how closely you watch German politics, but Merz has shown multiple times that it's safe not to trust him.

Some people still know the difference between probability and certainty, between assumption and proof.

Slightly related: https://troet.cafe/@PaulMeyn/115326314405720979
The Markus Söder this guy is referring to is the Ministerpräsident / Governor of Bavaria. A right-wing loudmouth like Merz, Söder is bragging around how the next Drones at MUC airport will be shot down. Strongmen everywhere, protecting us from those "Russian" drones.

Ich so: Hast du denn Belege dafür, dass das russische Drohnen waren?

Du so: Krummes Holz. Grades Feuer. Dunkle Gasse. Murmel murmel.

Merkste selber, ne?

Bitte lachen Sie! Das ist zu erwarten.

Ich kenne Sie. Sie sprechen mit einem Luxus, den Sie nicht besitzen.

Sie sind nicht schwach. Sie suchen Fürsorge. Rücksichtnahme. Sie sind vernünftig.

Die Psychose in Ihrem Osten sieht das als Schwäche.

Die Wahrnehmung von Schwäche erhöht das Kriegsrisiko.

Ich bitte Sie dringend, über Risikominderung nachzudenken. Dies spiegelt jedoch nicht Ihre derzeitige Einstellung wider.

Du bist in einer dunklen Gasse

Es ist gefährlich. Du zögerst. Du bist vorsichtig, aber die Monster in der Gasse sehen dein Zögern als Schwäche. Du bist nicht schwach, aber sie sehen dich so

Also bluffst du. Du lächelst. Du gehst selbstbewusst. Du steckst die Hand in die Tasche. Was hast du da? Nichts. Aber jetzt zögern sie

So geht man mit Russland um

Auf diese Weise verringert Merz‘ Rede die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines Krieges mit Russland. Denn Russland ist nicht vernünftig

Der Krieg mit Russland (et al) ist längst da. Und Kalte Krieger wie Merz oder du selbst blicken weder wie er läuft, noch auf welcher Seite sie mit ihrer Panikmache stehen.
Das wird ein böses Erwachen geben. Bis dahin: Schönes Leben noch.

@eckes

i'm going to make believe i'm merz

he wants to prevent war with russia

russia does not respect clear headed deliberation

we're not dealing with reason, we're dealing with a narcissist, putin, and a nation in psychosis. so they see us deliberating, they see weakness

we aren't weak but by the mechanism of the psychosis you're dealing with, that increases the chance of war

so: bluff

like in a poker game

because of the psychosis on the other side, that decreases the chance of war

I don't deny, but there are other options as well ... including a German free-rider problem ( inspired by initial events in #Denmark ) or generally by media coverage, extreme left ( some are here at Mastodon ) and - sorry - I won't exclude US interest in European destabilization.

But it leads to nothing, to no quick results.
And that's my point: We should shut up, ramp up intelligence and get the work done instead of boosting the topic to attract even more actors that long for publicity. batman

Sure, fuck Merz

But its kind of silly to doubt Russia is doing sabotage. There's being careful. But then there's also denial

@benroyce
He says it's reasonable. 🤷‍♂️

He says a lot without being informed - like Söder ...
He says a lot without really following up - like when claiming to get tough with Is real about #gaza .

Putting remedy before facts and analysis.
