Footage from the Ukrainian UGV’s own camera shows its "KARAKURT" anti-drone net system working under real combat conditions. The ground robot, equipped with deployable nets designed to defeat incoming FPV drones, successfully repels Russian FPV attacks while operating on the frontline.

I'm a left-of-Labor voter, which has often meant voting 1 for the Greens. You'd be right surmising my politics are pretty anti-war too. But failing to aid Ukraine's defence against invasion is loathsome and the purported principle invoked is one that does not meet the moment

It doesn't bother me that a bunch of Christofascists decided to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War. What bothers me is how EVERYONE adopted the name change with zero resistance at all. Everyone now just says "Department of War" as a form of fait accompli.

there are moral arguments against the death penalty in its ideal form but in real life you never need to get there. the prior question is "can the state be trusted to end the life only of the rightly convicted without torture?" and the answer is no

In response to people going after him for this, Friedersdorf claimed that he genuinely had no idea Rufo had anything to do with the Haitians in Springfield slurs and then got mad at people for acting like he was being a complete rube.

BillielsTheOne 9/20/26 “Rufo? The dude who earnestly repeated the lie about cats and dogs being eaten in Springfield? He believes in colorblind equality?”

“I'd missed his involvement in that and agree that, whatever it says about his beliefs, it reflects badly on him.”

“just incredible how people paid to write about politics for major publications can be more ignorant than random twitter users who didn't have to search hard to find this”

Conor Friedersdorf, 9/21/26 “Maybe I saw it and forgot. Or maybe I wasn't on X that week. You people are unbelievable--as if anyone has perfect recollection of every post relevant to something they do a quick x post about. Of course the hive mind of X collectively recalls more things than I do individually.”

The thing that I first of all do not understand about proponents of this attitude is: do you consider Russia, like, a grown nation? Because you seem to believe far more insulting things about it than any of those of us who take its threats seriously do. You seem to think it is a tiny vulnerable baby
