Zelensky banning political parties and taking over news outlets

[Burgermeister]

Classic moves for totalitarian take over. Explains why he is in no hurry to make peace.

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky announced a measure that bans 11 opposition political parties, alleging they have ties to Russia, he announced in a Telegram video posted on March 20.

“Any activity of politicians aimed at splitting or collaborating will not succeed,” he said.

Zelensky also said that “wartime exposes quite well the paucity of personal ambitions of those who try to put their own ambitions” or “their own party or career above the interests of the state,” according to a translation.

The parties that have been banned, he said, include “Opposition Platform—For Life, Sharij’s Party, Nashi, Opposition Bloc, Left Opposition, Union of Left Forces, Derzhava, Progressive Socialist Party of Ukraine, Socialist Party of Ukraine, the Socialists, and Volodymyr Saldo’s Bloc,” according to Ukrinform.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Saturday that the country is combining all national TV stations into a singular platform in an effort to combat Russian disinformation.

The new platform, named “United News,” is a national security measure, given “the direct military aggression of the Russian Federation, the active dissemination of misinformation by the aggressor state, [and] distortion of information, as well as justifying or denying the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine,” Zelensky’s office said in a statement (translation provided by Google Translate).

For good measure, just seeing this -

Dozens of shocking video testimonials have emerged over the past few days alleging that Ukrainian soldiers, including the Nazi-aligned Azov Battalion, have been setting up offensive military positions within civilian areas, like neighborhoods and apartment buildings, to launch attacks on Russian troops – essentially using the citizens, including women and children, as “human shields” by guaranteeing return fire will hit populated areas.

The news coverage on this situation is incredibly one-dimensional and feels very similar to the Covid coverage. You can feel an agenda underneath.

It's sad to wake up every morning and see this shit. If this irrelevant board is getting spammed this hard what do the big platforms look like?

This is a good non-argument. So are the things mentioned in the OP true or not? Why or why not?

Yup. And worse, of course, are the outlets that are considered "news and information", enabling this stuff by not exposing it.

Notice the Putin and authoritarian loving OP says nothing about the the Russian-neo Nazi organization the Wagner Group is in the Ukraine.

Who are the Wagner Group mercenaries and why are they being sanctioned?

With an estimated 6,000 members, the mercenary organisation is notorious for entering conflict zones where plausible deniability is needed

That idea that Zelensky is taking extraordinary steps to fight an invasion should not surprise anymore. Only a fool thinks it’s business’s as usual as his nation is being bombarded and destroyed by its murderous neighbors. Savage neighbors the OP apparently identifies with.

Every country in the world who is attacked by predators pass laws to reduce casualties of their own people in wartime. I'm convinced Zelensky is only instituting changes in regular daily activities of political party to save the lives of the Ukrainians. Fear has sent 6 million Ukrainians into self-exile. This war is so unfair because instead of fighting with fighters, the Russians are taking out their terror on children, mothers, parents of children, nursery schools, public schools, children's hospitals, etc.

The world has 2 choices: follow Biden and do nothing, or arrange a different outcome of bully russia ( population 145 million) and victim Ukraine, (Population 42 million).

why support a dictator?

~S~

Out of purely morbid curiosity, what makes you think Biden is doing nothing?

Who is telling you this? Would you rather have us in a full-fledged war?

That’s impossible. Z is a wonderful man. He’s a superhero! Just ask Fox News viewers. They think he's another Lincoln but in a good way, which is historically impossible.

You don’t think if Ukraine joined NATO he would’ve requested help invading Russia?

If Zelensky called in NATO it would have been to defend his nation, not invade Russia. See the difference.

Meh. A little Fascism never hurt anyone.

Zelensky and his Globalists masters support genuine Nazis in Ukraine so who is shocked by this?

The only Nazis are those that support Putin. Putin is now sending off Ukraines to camps.

Thousands of Mariupol residents ‘forcibly’ taken to Russian camps: reports

Thousands of Ukrainian residents of the besieged city of Mariupol have reportedly been “forcibly” moved to cities in the Russian interior over the past week.

His own. Are you so dumb you don’t know about the 14,000 dead in the Donbass?
