Ukraine Weekly Update (BRICS of Hope) (robcampbell.substack.com)
submitted 2 hours ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 
 

First time i've stumbled onto this substack and i have to say this is a fairly comprehensive roundup of the latest news not just around the Ukraine conflict, though that is certainly the focus, but covering a lot of what's been happening in the world: conflict in the Middle East, US election clown show, BRICS summit, Moldova elections, etc. albeit once again from a conservative perspective (hence some cringe comments about "wokeness" halfway through the post, but they don't affect the piece much so i just ignore that sort of nonsense)

Only thing missing here is the latest news about the Georgia elections in which the Georgian Dream party apparently won an absolute majority, and in which of course, as was to be expected, the results are being outright denied by the "pro-western" (read: Washington and Brussels puppet) opposition. We're likely to see another attempt at a color revolution scenario very soon as this is their last chance to prevent a reconcilliation with Russia.

I'll try to find some good info/analysis to post on that but i can't guarantee it (i'd appreciate if someone has a good source to share). It usually takes a bit of time after an event like this for the dust to settle and we can understand more clearly what's actually going on without the heavy smokescreen of propaganda. Speaking of which, this "fog of war" is also the reason i haven't so far posted about the most recent Zionist attack on Iran, i'm not convinced that we have reliable enough information yet.

If, like me, you've relied on Fennec as a more tolerable version of Firefox for Android, you may have gotten some bad news in the latest F-droid update cycle.

Fennec has fallen so far behind on updates that serious security patches implemented by Mozilla in Firefox haven't been applied to the fork, and Fennec is therefore still breachable.

The developer responded two weeks ago that they were "short on time", and there still isn't a new, secure version available. This appears to be due to that recurring weak link in open source development: small teams, confronted by real life demands like time and money?
