  1. I'm tuned out on that shit for my own sanity. Time has already told, and will tell again.
  2. Same. I actually appreciate your perspective. That hasn't changed.
  3. Apology accepted.
  4. good talk. all my coworkers love me. none of them are as dumb as you present though. Also. Objectively false. Making you a liar.
  5. Totally serious poster.
  6. You are tilting man. When did the US mess with Ukraine? I would like to think that you are not being serious, but the sHoW uR mAtHs makes it hard. We literally have audio tapes of neocon clowns like Nuland.
  7. You are wasting your time here. Dealing with the same energy and firing synapses that bought hook line and sinker nigerian yellow cake propaganda two decades ago.
  8. I appreciate a difference between the qualities of the US and the misadventures of US foreign policy. This is just totally divorced from reality. Non serious soundbites.
  9. Maybe he learned it by watching us.
  10. Come on Twice. This is just absurdity in the context of the 1980s-2020s. Like legit look at what transpired over that timeframe. CiVIliZed cOunTriEs uSe DiPloMaCy. Type of dumb shit we tell children. Let's talk as adults do, aware of the world around them. Yes, I think that is exactly what we have seen play out.
  11. I don't think that it will make anything look awesome, but I do think that it will help us Americans understand why the actions of the NATO powers after the fall of the Soviet Union and expansion into Ukraine in particular are viewed by the Russians as an existential threat. It's hard to draw great analogies here that will resonate, since our country and cultural identify is still in the crib relative to these peoples.
  12. How does the history of the region apply? I don't know man. How far back do you want to go? Fall of the soviet union? 20th century? We can certainly go back a millenia. But we're gonna have to make this snappy, I got some chickens and potatoes roasting. And still need to pull together a salad situation.
  13. Ladybug is on the scene.
  14. History did not start in February 2022.
  15. Side note: Worst decision Ukraine ever made was giving up the nukes under their territorial control.
  16. Let me know when you have those DNS logs all figured out. But I think that you finding jesus when it comes to US deploying economic coercion wrt Ukraine hilarious. What the fuck do you think has been going on for the last decade plus there?
  17. The display of true courage is stoking conflicts by proxy to effect totally wrong headed foreign policy aims. Great powers treating innocent bystanders as pawns on the board and absolutely nothing more. This is the true courage, coming from the jingos, the domestic war mongers, and the politically brain damaged, willing to fight to the last Ukrainian to achieve foreign policy goals that will ultimately be destructive to the long-term interests of America. Empty rhetoric about democracy and the rules-based order, bolstered by waves of propaganda, feasting on a lack of long-term attention span, fringing their garments with golden threads of righteousness. That's true courage.
  18. Not as shocking as watching neocon foreign policy once again resulting in exporting death and destruction throughout the world.
  19. The punchline is “us-led rules based international order”. But you have to click the play button.
  20. Hopefully this war and the needless loss of life will come to an end quickly.
  21. Yet I still know how coin flips work.
  22. Not gonna lie, I like a southwestern egg roll too. Guilty pleasure.
  23. Yall are gonna keep getting shocked when you lose winnable elections and blame it on the southwest eggrolls.
