The indigestible steel porcupine

I highly recommend this short unabashedly proUkrainian short film. I really do believe the world is dividing into camps that favor old style power politics vs. global organizational system created by the US after WW2. Ironically, at least for now, our Federal government is aligned on the wrong side of history. 


This realignment supersedes the old ideological left/right conception in favor of global cooperation vs. autocratic "spheres of influence." I think China actually straddles both systems, but sees the longer term as one where it is dominant, which is inherently inconsistent with the entire concept of global cooperation. 

Note: This film is not on YouTube no doubt because it violates YouTube's strictures. There are real dead bodies and violence, although nothing really graphic. YouTube sensibly seeks to avoid the horror of the live beheadings that were all over the internet at one time. And I am grateful that I never had to see Charlie Kirk's assassination in graphic detail, which apparently many people did, unexpectedly.

Silence is complicity. Americans who believe in democracy MUST RESIST.
