White House directs officials to draft proposal to lift US sanctions on Russia

Ignorance has consequences tho.

This is kind of an underrated sentiment. I think a big reason there aren’t more protests and revolting is because we really can’t afford it. The financial impact on each individual can be significant. Employers don’t support time off for anything of a political nature, not even voting.
I don’t believe this situation isn’t intentional. It seems that countries who take two hour lunch breaks and don’t let their jobs dictate their entire lives are far more likely to protest en mass.

And oh boy aren't we seeing that right now
-
Yeah, note instead of Russia being a communist authoritarian hellscape, it’s a capitalist authoritarian hellscape.
Very different
-
Yes, but Russia (or at least Putin) hasn't.
-
Fuck man.....kinda feelin that way ey?

Trump is so l still a Russian asset. Doing russias bidding

No he was well within range for a 5.56. the problem was his scope wasn't sighted in correctly and he sucked at shooting.

At about the 5 minute mark he gets into the incorrect zero. -
Ordinary Men is another very good one. It uses testimony from after the war to establish the story of a real life German police unit and their commander who were ordered to start mass killing.
-
Just because it is in range doesn’t mean it’s appropriate
It was the wrong calibre for what he was doing. The wrong platform for his objective.
I can but 4” clay pigeons at 50m with a 9mm pistol but I should use something else.

Thing is, saving that house now by forsaking the country could lead to that same door being kicked down by the feds in just a few months for that liberal Facebook post you made calling trans people human. Get in the Gitmo van.

Vote suppression was rife. There were over two million mail-in ballots trashed. Black voters' ballots were nine times more likely to be trashed than white voters'.
-
Many of them never left.

Oh look, another Trumper obsessed with culture war issues that no one else cares about.. I'm so surprised.
-
The US is sabotaging its own alliances. They're hardly untouchable.

The BLM protests were the largest in US history. The fact is that most Americans have been coddled by a stable democracy and don't care if they lose it, as long as someone puts a buck in their pocket. They think it won't affect them because Congress bad, both sides bad.
Of the ones who do care, they think protests dOn'T wOrK because BLM or the Palestine protests failed. Completely ignoring the fact that other civil resistance movements have succeeded and are historically more successful than armed revolts against the upper class.

Maybe that's cause Russia hasn't been communist in a long while.
