Right, only America and its friends are allowed to do those, this is the very heart of the issue. Anyone else tries to do one and we have to have global famine and a nuclear war over it.

Idk who you think you're responding to with this but it sure isn't me? Go back and reread what I wrote and then moderate your response. All I said were facts...you appear here to have built an unrelated strawman out of them to knock down in underwhelming fashion. Looks...fun, I guess, but does nothing to change the underlying facts.

"Fellas fellas, why can't we get along? Can't we all agree to eke out some token boilerplate condemnation for the US instigating a right-wing coup and subsequently spending years arming and training Nazi militias on Russia's border, while also adamantly rooting for America's war industrial complex to successfully keep the money and the weapons flowing into Ukraine for as long as this war takes to drive Russia out of Ukraine? How are these two stances incompatible??" Not even exaggerating when I say y'all are going to cheerlead us right into nuclear war. It is just shameful how ignorant and warmongering Americans are, and no amount of tubby white tears crying about "b-b-but Russia did an invasion, so that automatically gives America the Global Empire the right to get involved however it seems fit and fan the flames of this war for months and years if need be, r-right??" are going to save anyone from the resulting cataclysm of this endless globe-spanning imperial warmongering that you supported.

These are parts of Ukraine that have been at war with the Ukrainian govt ever since the coup in 2014. These are people who don't want to live under a coup government, Ukrainian citizens who saw the Nazis which terrorized them and helped overthrow the govt get rewarded by being officially incorporated into Ukraine's military. 10,000+ deaths over the last eight years in eastern Ukraine from the fighting. Ukraine govt been killing and bombing its own citizens that whole time. These are people and places that begged Russia to come in and put a stop to this madness.

These horrors happen in every war. This is why it is important to oppose war, and not support war while rooting for America to "win" as so many of you are doing. Do you know anything about what the people of Afghanistan have been through the last 20 years? Rapes galore but I never once saw you say a word about that. I'm against Russia's actions, it is possible and in fact quite easy to hold this position while not simultaneously cheerleading for American imperialism. But y'all don't seem interested in threading that needle because World Police fuck yeah

One of them orchestrated a coup in Ukraine in 2014 that saw far right paramilitaries and Nazi militias overthrow their elected govt because of economic policy decisions that were disliked USA and the EU. The other is responding to the ensuing war and heightening Nazi threat that has been raging just across its border for the last eight years, but you don't know or care about any of that bc it wasn't on the news in America.

So, did you look into that US-backed coup that you said the other day you didn't know a lot about? Yeah I mean that scenario sounds better to me than this endless war and famine that we're seeing bc the US and its friends never saw a war they didn't like. Hundreds of millions of people across the world now at risk of starvation because of this prolonged war. I understand it makes tubby white guys in America mad but Kyiv falling early and sparing us all that war and misery and death is a compromise I am willing to live with. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/warns-345-million-people-marching-starvation-89993780 "Russia placing soldiers on the border with NATO states" buddy, the fact that Ukraine now borders NATO states is only helping to make my point for me. The US/NATO encroaching into Soviet territory and adding all these poor countries to its sphere of influence for the express purpose of fucking with Russia (which is the purpose of NATO) highlights the western imperialism that instigated this war. Y'all can keep crying about Russian imperialism and Ukraine's agency all you want but it doesn't erase the lawless unaccountable endlessly warmongering global hegemon superpower that has the entire world in its iron grip. Which countries have any "agency" under the rule of this empire, when on a whim the US can go in and invade whoever whenever, special military operations in 200+ countries every year, endless coups and coup attempts, arming radical right-wing militias all across the world, drones and missiles and mercenaries and CIA infiltrators all over the world doing the evil empire's bidding. But yeah, Russia responding to these conditions is what threatens the fake norm of national sovereignty that we're all apparently going to pretend the US *ever* regarded, at any point in its history.

Have you heard about this, have you seen this? Takeaways so far - I like it, but if I hadn't just watched the hobbit trilogy for the first time + rewatched LOTR and spent time looking up a lot of this lore and crap and reading about who and what I watched before coming into this show, I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much. Idk anything about these specific characters/events that Amazon purchased from the Tolkien library, and I'm not looking anything up for this show, all burnt out on that. So I'm not sure if they're Disney Star Wars-ing it and making up new characters yet for the streaming content universe.

The only thing (I think) I've seen cringuy really say ITT was ofc toeing the bipartisan/American media line supporting America heavily arming & directing Ukraine in its war against Russia which would quickly be over if not for American involvement, but he was pessimistic that president Brandon would have the noble rightness to follow through with military support and was worried that we might abandon Ukraine by not keeping the war flowing when the going gets tough, something like that.
-
This imperialist world police-mindset from America is going to cause a nuclear war, but at least these pro-Ukrainian war Americans will be able to say it was all Putin's fault and yes, that is what you are if you support America's ongoing bloodletting policy of infinite billions for war and weapons going to our mess that we instigated in Ukraine.

2022 Midterms: Oh god, not again

Dayng, Bernie's really changed.. -
It's good news because it's bad for those institutions. A bunch of CIA agents and assets die and maybe people won't want to work with them as much anymore and maybe it spoils or postpones some of whatever horrors our agencies are planning next, all good news here.

Same with this, but shocking if true:

Not talking about froot loops or the zebra candy. If I had to say I think it was like a little plastic tray with like lifesaver gummy rings of solid colors like green and red and yellow, but idr that might be another candy entirely, mostly just wondering qbout the toucan guy with beak divided by solid vertical lines of all the colors of the rainbow 🌈

As if the people living there haven't had enough time to consider this prospect already, or...?
