Imagine my shock when, stoned out of my gourd, I see the ABC Nightly News headlines.

“Warrant Issued For Vladimir Putin’s Arrest”

And it’s issued by an “international” criminal court America has already deemed an unnecessary inhibitor to their colonial project.

I feel like the media is gaslighting us. Very briefly my sense of reality was annihilated. I was caught in a bizarre imperialist fantasy where nothing made sense. I wanted ask my sister what year it was and whether Kiev had finally sacked Moscow. I was convinced I had missed some major developments.

My fault for falling for the MSM clickbait, apparently.

    He should go and be cleared of charges. Then they should issue one for a USA president.

      He would never return. He would died in “mysterious circuimstances” or hell, they are at this level of derangement they would just lock him up and try to use as leverage or hostage to try to break Russia.

    because I’m a masochist I sometimes put the news on while I do stuff around my apartment and earlier this evening I was cleaning my cat’s litter box and heard “an arrest warrant has been issued for Russian president Vladimir Putin” and burst out laughing at the absurdity of it

      Me too, I sometimes read comments on Ukraine war videos, peak masochism but I can’t help it since I’m hoping for a few good ones and often see just about 5 or so normal ones.
