'We've lost a partner and a friend': Ukrainians somber as U.S. partnership disintegrates
-
There needs to be some sort of empathy test to weed out the selfish dipshits that wanna run for authority positions.
Unfortunately, while the people who want power shouldn't have it, the people who should be in power don't want it.
-
Against the government - no of course not. Against the handful of people driving it into the ground - absolutely.
... and what's 'fine' is at the mods' discretion. I've been temp banned several times for having basically this conversation. Thing is, the options on the table right now are sit quietly and let the Nazis continue to take over the US government (shit tons of violence on a massive scale), or in the absence of any form of checks and balances to include effective peaceful protests or voting: cut the snake's head off (still violence, but the least violent option we have). ...but pulling that trolley lever to take the less violent path is still 'advocating for violence' here.
We'll find out soon if this comment crossed the line.

The Venn diagram of people who are all over 2A rights and people who are trump supporters has significant overlap.
-
We need more Luigis, that's for sure.

My rep doesn't give a shit lol, he's cheering it on
-
*expanded previous comment - original version was posted from mobile which is significantly more tedious to rant on.
And yes, more Luigis please!!

From my country, it's just surreal to watch the lack of reactions from Americans. It looks like they mostly support the actions of the co-nazi dictators, a really bad picture to say the least.

US is not really withdrawing, just restructuring\diversifying its investments so to say, from guys like EU to guys like Milei/Netanyahu/Putin, which is not really new for US foreign policy.
It's what Russia does that has cost it even dictatorships from among its former allies, but their strategy is based on "there's no other place for them to go", with Armenia and Georgia this is correct (despite all the pretentious words neither got hard backing from the west), with Central Asian nations not really, with Ukraine undecided.
The obvious difference - US really is what thieving jerks in charge of Russia pretend to be. What Russia can't do, It can.

Immigrants from Eastern Europe tend to have such alignments. Ukrainians even more than Russians.

I read that in the accent of the French soldier from Holy Grail.
-
Well shit. TIL!

No one said or implied we were talking recently...
I was specifically talking about his initial rise to power, which, as you stated, was in a significant power vacuum and period of instability for Russia. Hence why I said "at first" in my previous comment.
-
Ah, you missed that they voted now to change it to a superreich. To the rest it will be known as a superclowner
-
Which if you think of it is weird as they should want to crush Russia and then extort cheap oil and resources from them
-
And people who should be in power also tend to get assassinated.
-
A superpower that has yet to win a war.
-
yup, trump's a symptom not a straight up cause. his demise is expected to be the least consequential of this "elite" trio, as he is already getting sidelined without consequence. Old, virile trump would have fired musk a month ago.
-
That's not what matters. Superpowers make supermesses.

nice pfp

As somebody from the US, I can't wait to see our country fall. The world isn't going stand by and let us fuck with them anymore
