This is a link post Anyone else think that this whole 'Zelensky addresses...' thing is getting a bit fucking tacky?
I get it. Ukraine, good. Russia, bad. But do we really need him popping up at every large event to remind us of our civic duty to point the finger at the villains? It's all getting a bit Beardy Greta for my liking.

Glastonbury: Zelensky addresses crowd as Libertines kick off festival

This is a normal post I don't think politicians should 'perform' at Glastonbury, or be invited to TED, etc.
That said, if it annoys a Kremlin supporter like you, I'm all in favour of whatever it is. For that is what politics is all about these days, being less upset than your ideological enemies.

This is a normal post I'm much more upset that apparently the fucking Libertines are still a going concern.

Hey, Hungary made it in, and they keep threatening to add Turkey. I'd imagine being in an actual war with Russia might put more of a damper on it.

This is a normal post Well, it took a war with Russia for Ukraine to very suddenly be granted candidate status, so not too much of a damper.

Perhaps some dapper headgear and one filtah later we can start printing the tees.

This is a normal post Che Guevara was a cunt. He tortured and murdered people, and was an overt racist.
Why the left continue their adolescent mythologising of him is inexplicable.

Of course he did appalling things, they all do. This didn't stop his image being insanely popular.

How many vile people have the 'right' idolised over the years, Thatcher was friends with pinochet the current crop seem to be using the Trumpf playbook (to quote a horrid 'merican phrase).

This is a normal post I note that both sides also use cancel culture type attacks when the target is someone they don't like
but there's hypocrisy on the right because they also push plenty of "pc gone mad" "lets get out of the EHCR" etc stuff to their readership decrying the kinds of character assignation stuff for saying the wrong thing and putting overemphasis on side issues, that they then go and pull themselves. Che's 'racism' boils down to a couple of quotes in his early 20s, against years fighting in the literal sense for black liberation in places like the congo. the "zelensky homophobia row" is about some minister making a homophobic comment on social media. anyway, not trying to start an argument or to suggest they're without flaws, just pointing out if they don't like cancel culture, they shouldn't make those kinds of attacks

This is a normal post I dispute your whitewash of Guevara’s transgressions.
You’ve already moved on to cancel culture, the ECHR and the media.

This is a normal post Moved on to cancel culture? That was my opening sentence
Do you read things in reverse? Anyway, I didn’t really want to get into a debate about the merits of Guevara, just pointing out that the spectator articles you share like the one titled “ zelensky homophobia” which are trying to confect some outrage over some social media comment his minister made, well that same mag is constantly rallying about political correctness gone mad, e,g www.spectator.com.au/2020/06/the-pc-monster-wants-to-eat-all-the-fun/ , and thats hypocritical, and they’re not the only ones on the right that have this double standard. i hope this make it clearer. I use ‘cancel culture’ as a term for it, but you could equally call it “getting disproportionately outraged by petty bullshit like tweets and opinions”

This is a normal post Right now their survival depends on what they can get from the west
If Zelensky has to record slightly cringy videos for Glastonbury to keep the rich voters on side then that's a price worth paying for him.

If you want something really tacky then give russian TV a go.
