“People who fought for freedom from the USSR were genociding it.”
You are correct, see my other comment.
If you read the resolution and the answers of national governments why they abstained, the answer is found in points 4 and 14 of the resolution, where everyone who fought against the anti-Hitler coalition is condemned and equivocated with nazi-sympathisers. This does include people who opportunistically fought againt the Red Army in the baltic states and Ukraine for national liberation from the USSR, but not necessarily on the german side.
This resolution is a veiled attemp to paint even the people who fought against Russia for freedom from the USSR but not for Germany as part of the Nazi movements in Soviet states that did fight for Germany.

Yes, some of those “national liberation fighters” were absolute shitbag nazi scum, but not all of them were and history is generally more complex than just good and bad.
There was a movement to restrict those two points to language that does not automatically include these anti-soviet forces among the ranks of the nazis, but the changes were not adopted.
Some politicians posit the hypothesis that the resolution was worded in such a way through russian string pulling, because they wanted to be able to paint every anti-russian fighter in the time of the second world war as pro-Hitler.
Enkrod@feddit.orgto World News@lemmy.world•Far-right Trump fan wins first round of Romania’s rerun presidential election, partial count suggestsEnglish1·2 months agoAnd the inevitable decline of neoliberal politics. People have been taught and indoctrinated by the media, that the right is economically proficcient but hindered by the left. And now they double down on neoliberal bullshit politics because not going hard enough didn’t help them and going more left is generally presented as an economically worse choice.
The sad truth is: Going more left would leave “the economy” (the stocks / rich peoples wallets) worse of but help the real economy by giving expendable income to people who right now, cannot spend what they don’t have.
I believe it’s the most common cause of death for old whales (for all whales it’s sadly collisions with ships). They become too weak to swim to the surface and then just sink into the deep… horrible way to go.
Did you know:
Whales don’t have to strain to hold their breath, they have no drowning-reflex and don’t breath automatically, they can only breath consciously. So while land mammals usually will start gasping for air when still underwater for too long. Whales will not.
This means whales don’t drown (because drowning means inhaling water), they rather asphyxiate underwater if they can not reach the surface.
Enkrod@feddit.orgto politics @lemmy.world•Dem Senator Says Party Needs to Stop Attacking ‘Oligarchy’ and Focus on Losing ‘Woke’ Reputation11·2 months agoFighting Oligarchy resonates greatly. But yes, the dems have focused too much on the culture war in favour of participating in the class war against the working class.
That is definitely something they should put waaaay more focus on. Trump is the cry for help of much of the working class, if people would believe you actually fought FOR the working people in your country, the dems would be unstoppable.
Enkrod@feddit.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•How much of a pain is it to install Nvidia GPU drivers, really?1·3 months agodepends on your Distro, for Linux Mint it’s just the Driver Manager.
To access the Driver Manager in Linux Mint, follow these steps:
- Click on the Menu (Taskbar) in the lower-left corner of your screen.
- Navigate to Administration.
- Click on Driver Manager.
Once you have opened the Driver Manager, follow these steps to install the Nvidia drivers:
- The Driver Manager will prompt you for your password. Enter your password and click on Authenticate.
- The Driver Manager will scan your system for available drivers. Once the scanning is complete, you will see a list of available drivers for your graphics card.
- Select the recommended Nvidia driver from the list.
- Click on Apply Changes to start the installation process.
Then reboot.
For most problems you can really just google stuff like “Linux Mint Nvidia Drivers”

If we’re not content with the system, we can change it anytime we like. We’ll start by trying to get change by ballot box, but if you close that door for us, if you force us too… we absolutely can get change by guillotine.

I have encountered big american pickups only seven times in my country. They all had some kind of nazi imagery or text attached.
