I enjoyed this interview and Mr. Lindsley's perspectives. He is enthusiastic and passionate. I used see Mr. Lindsley often on Michal Rachon's program until TVP shut down. That's another subject, but I enjoyed the program and Mr. Lindsey's views & enthusiasm remain the same now.

Thank you Jonathan and Lyndsley for bringing us an enthusiastic interview. Its so true that many people are still inward looking and not looking at the bigger picture regarding Ukraines plight and don't understand how near it is to Europe especially. I've been following Ukraine since the full scale invasion Feb 2022 and following various YB channels and taking that further to then interact with Ukrainians on their channels and only then you do you start to really feel the love and respect for these genuinely passionate and caring people who only want to enjoy life like we take for granted. 🇺🇦🇬🇧

Thank you for inviting this amazing US public figure. Joseph Lindsley is far more than a journalist. I wish western media had more people like that. Joseph definitely deserves recognition. Joseph is incredibly good at conveying the reality of Ukraine during this existential war. Something that only the best journalists have ever done. Thank you for another highly intellectual yet deep episode. How do we change the western perception of Ukraine, this war? We probably won't be able to affect politicians, conecting directly with people, sort of like Joseph is far best approach poetically

[@planet-karma]

What a great interview. It should be shared to help others understand what a phenomenon Ukraine has been since the start of this war. These are people who are who are willing to do what it takes to be free. They have cut through the b.s. of Russian propaganda (and the lies of those who find lies expedient) and transcended victimhood to understand what is truly important.

I would personally rather say that the verb "mohty" has the meaning of "to have the ability/strength to do something", and "peremoha" is "the act of overcoming something with your strength/ability", or something along these lines.

Not so clever - more like a mafioso thug who is good at reading others to his advantage and who will knock off anyone who he sees as a threat. Certainly nothing intelligent about flattening cities to rubble and repeatedly sending your own troops to slaughter.

[@rambleon2838]

Joseph Lindsley was a regular on the right wing PTV show Rock Racon which the newly elected government has canceled. Mr. Lindsley is coming out of the US right wing journalism sector of Fox News, Breitbart News and Drudge Report area of the 90s. He definitely has left that train and does show compassion and humanity which is obviously lacking from what he left behind. Lindsley is not the only US journalist working in Ukraine. *Philip Ittner*, a veteran in war coverage, is also active in Ukraine and would be an excellent choice for a follow up interview. 🇺🇦 Sláva Ukrayíni! 🇺🇦 Heróyam sláva! 🇺🇦

For those who prize family,christianity and traditionel values..Ukraine IS THAT 1000%!

[@ninemoonplanet]

Key is understanding that Ukraine has literally pulled of what anyone else considers not possible, and Ukraine keeps doing that over and over again. If any of the European countries, UK, USA,NATO, Canada put even 10% of this energy into doing this, all these countries would be far better off. It's possible. Find a way. Slava Ukrayini 🇺🇦💪🔱🇨🇦

[@PamelaC23]

Really good point about the terrible bias on news, we have to hold them to account to check facts before they report or at the very least caveat the first reports.

[@RexIlluminatus]

Of course the drip support for Ukraine is a conscious strategy. One only needs to compare the number of Abrahms and Bradleys in inventory with the numbers provided. The US seems to be doing everything to prevent Russia losing fast. There are a number of reasons for it. Fear of escalation, fear of nuclear proliferation, lack of ammunition to donate, the idiotic hope that Russia can one day be turned against China, the desire to buy more time for the West to arm, not wanting Russia to become a fully dependant vassal state and cheap resources provider of China... It is a combination of false calculations and real limitations. The result is tragic for Ukraine and makes the collective West and especially the US leadership look weak.

What they said about the POWS on the plane story is so cogent. So so grateful for these two. People (in Germany) who think sticking their heads in the sand makes them safe forget people like Putin who want what they have are watching and planning the next move accordingly.

[@jamesweible5357]

I have been wondering for over a year now if the support for Ukraine was so sparse because the west was actually afraid of true freedom.

[@jplindsley]

That's a clear way to phrase it.

[@jamesweible5357]

@@jplindsley I keep thinking about the shift in mindset which has been happening for decades, where people think their vote doesn't count because the elections are all rigged or funneled to a candidate which caters to interests other than the people's. I remember there being a small uproar over ukraine removing a pro-russian party from the ballots, and I just laughed, since no other parties besides democrat or republican stand a chance to make it in an election past city level. Then you have both sides taking money to push laws that favor the richest groups. All the major issues are things that never get solved, and never will so long as they are issues that can be used to get votes. It all feels like a system designed to suppress freedom, because true freedom is too chaotic to be predicable. I used to be able to know exactly who would win the presidential election because of how long the party had been in office. There was an 8 year cycle for a while.

When your own people are not dying or enslaved, it is difficult to believe that you need to act to protect freedom - in your own home, but also in the world. I’m trying to think of how that can be taught, in a basic way. People who are entrenched in their own beliefs stick to them partly because they don’t have to think further.

[@concernedrabbit9075]

True freedom means you can argue about what freedom means and you can disagree with the government about it.

[@steveaplin3421]

I thought I was bad, going all pro Red Army after reading about Kursk as a bright eyed undergrad. At least I got it when Gorbachev publicly owned up to Katyn and the Secret Protocol. There's no excuse for the "Russia is eternal" crowd. Honestly I wonder if it's all nostalgia for them -- they yearn for that rush of righteousness they felt upon learning, as undergrads, that the Battle of the Bulge was not the biggest battle of WWII. And here they are today, edumucating policymakers on our eternal debt to Russia. You're right -- it's pernicious

15:00 Ukrainian peremoga, peremogti from proto-Slověnic pere «over» + mogti «to might», meaning «to overcome, overpower». There are other words for victory in Ukrainian indeed, but poběda, poběditi «to force into suffering» would be against the rather amiable Ukrainian nature. Whereas zvitęga, zvitęžiti «to withknight over» would a noble victory, completely impossible against the utterly dishonest Muscovites.

The media and politicians treat russia as a nation, which affords it certain privileges, respect and assumptions around being afforded the benefit of doubt when members of putins Gang make claims and statements.

[@Alister222222]

The west: Power is obtained through wealth. Russia: Wealth is obtained through power. Both of those are problematic; arguable, equally problematic. In the US in particular, the wealthy can use their money to gum up the justice system, and buy delays, obtain settlements, consent decrees, and so on, to avoid facing meaningful consequences for committing literal crimes. Big companies can push small companies out of business just by putting them in positions where they can't afford the cost of the legal fight. The very wealthy can use their wealth to obtain more and more property, leaving millions of people literally unable to obtain a house to live in, effectively condemning them to lives of rent-slavery. Now that 'corporations are people', unlimited dark money can effectively buy elections. There need to be far, far stronger guardrails against wealth equalling power. We've seen from the likes of Musk and Trump that wealth does not correlate with competence or goodness; all it correlates with is greed and sociopathy.

[@pcopeland15]

I don't disagree.

[@raviahmad9903]

The US and the West generally are pretty shitty towards those fighting their proxy wars, whether its the Kurds, the non-Taliban Afghan government, etc. Seems like they're taking the same tactic with Ukraine. This war is a cheap way to degrade Russia's offensive capabilities but I bet the US is actually worried about what happens if Russia doesn't get something out of this. That is, without a negotiated settlement and a 'win' that allows Putin to stand down for a few years, the Russian regime starts collapsing and there's complete chaos, with nukes. Its super cynical but that seems to be the emerging strategic consensus I think?

[@pcopeland15]

Hmmmm.
