Holy shit; I thought at first that this was about the US state
And nothing about that seemed all that out of place 😕
Seems like their actual name is translated as Sakartvelo, we should use that. And when the state of Georgia is in a headline it should be “The US state of Georgia.”
I would not be at all surprised if GA tried to ban Democrats in general. And SCROTUS would sit on their butts until after the election to take it up
Why bother with opposition parties when your country is a Russian vassal state?
I always thought of Georgia as a country that hates Russia, given the whole Abkhazia and South Ossetia thing
Russia invaded Georgia in 2008. That success likely had a role in why they continued with Ukraine in 2014.
That was then, this is now. Russia doesn’t control it yet, but this is the step to that.
Huh what? They absolutely do control those two regions.
I meant Georgia as a whole.
This is likely what’s going to happen with Taiwan and China eventually.
China will never rule Taiwan, they’re not gonna start a war with all their trading partners over an island. It’s a nationalist rallying cry, nothing more.
Unless Trump wins.
Then, it’s open season for dictators all over the world.
China plans to conquer Taiwan from the inside via clandestine elected officials who will pass laws to lower the walls for China to politically “invade”
Unfortunately from the last elections (the pro Beijing KMT party sneakily taking majority), it’s already working…before the citizens realize it, Taiwan will share the some authoritarian shithole regime appointed by the CCP and any talk that is not about the glory of China or unification will be a “separatist” 'national security threat"
Remember Hong Kong
What does this influence look like? Is it like the interference in elections elsewhere? Do they fund politicians like in the Philippines or Hungary or is it more like social media campaigns? What else should we be aware of?
Exactly. China doesn’t need to start a war to take Taiwan. Win an election one time, then aggressively change the rules to keep your party in power permanently.
They already have parliament majority. Now they just need to unseat Lai with their own zealot as president and Taiwan is fucked. Not a single army boot will step foot in either (not until they have control anyway)
Maybe.
I hate this, always wanted to visit Georgia, seems like a gorgeous country.
And their people seem super friendly. Every Georgian I’ve came across online have been extremely nice.
You still can, it’s not fucked… Yet.
Now this is giving me splinter cell vibes. I hope the CIA is not missing any agents in the area.
Funny you mentioned, I’ve been thinking about the first Splinter Cell game lately lol.
I honestly couldn’t tell at first if this was about the country called Georgia or the American state called Georgia. It could honestly apply to both.
I hope the people of the nation of Georgia are able to overcome Putlers influence.
Y’know, I’m pretty sure it’s a big red flag if anyone or anything is “going North Korea”.
