@ClarkeMicah @CurtainSilicon I thought you had already learned there's no point in responding to the dog's bottom people, Mr Hitchens.

2/2 @tomdiserens . I have been writing for many years about the growth of despotism in Russia . See https://t.co/CVDClFR3QH. In my country, there's a strong postjudice against people who wear Nazi insignia. It might help my fellow-citizens understand Ukraine better to know this. — PolitiTweet.org

1/2 .@tomdiserens. I am precise in language. 'Fascism', as Orwell pointed out decades ago, is a term meaning nothing, except that the speaker does not like what he describes. The Ukrainian hard right contains people who unashamedly wear *Nazi* symbols, esp the SS Wolfsangel. — PolitiTweet.org

.@tomdiserens. I am not. It often threatens the real safeguards of liberty, the rule of law and the freedoms of thought, speech, and assembly. But the 'West' claims to treasure it, so it looks a bit silly when it allows it to be trampled in the mud, and doesn't object. — PolitiTweet.org

.@tomdiserens. Nobody likes the rule of law when it gets in their way. Yanukovych was lawlessly and violently removed *after* he had agreed to major retreats and early elections (which the putschists must have feared they might lose). There was no risk of him becoming Lukashenko. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ben_machell. It is not really a parallel. The death penalty is a *punishment* imposed, after a trial, on a person convicted of a heinous crime. The things you mention are not. (I also think it quite hard to show much of a parallel between forced sterilisation and an IQ test). — PolitiTweet.org

With our courts, police, judges, media and juries in their current state, I could not possibly support a return of the death penalty. But there is a clear reasoned case for it (with proper safeguards), and I provide it here for anyone interested: https://t.co/OnghHuZErM — PolitiTweet.org

.@cornishbyrne The crisis of 1940 was about as similar to the Ukraine war as a pineapple is to a polecat. For a start, it is 30 years of American expansionism in Eastern Europe, the opposite of their 1930s isolation, which has led to this crisis. See https://t.co/suGTXqDlJa — PolitiTweet.org
