Trump Pauses Military Aid to Ukraine After Clash With Zelenskiy

- Joining and organizing within your local community to create connections with others is incredibly powerful, will lay the groundwork for effective resistance.
- We can effect things drastically with a general strike. This can massively impact their income streams, and can bring a government to its knees if done on a large enough scale.
- Join the IWW and attempt to unionize your workplace, so that the general strike is even more effective.
If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Join up with allies while we still can easily!

The shitty thing is, the checks and balances kind of still exist but the people in charge of them approve everything Trump is doing.
And then the constituents who are in charge of voting those people out ALSO approve of what they are doing and/or are too ignorant to notice. (Any illegal tampering with voter rolls and ballots notwithstanding)
How does one fix the culture of an entire nation? Ugh.

They are not going to stop that.

I hope every English sepaker doesn't count as "English". Wouldn't want to have a king.

Context clues, my friend.
That post is clearly referring to shooting Russian soldiers that have invaded.
And just to help you further, the adjective "Russian" in that sentence refers to the state for which the soldiers fight. So a "Russian soldier" could be some poor dude from North Korea who got shipped over.
To further aid understanding, look at the military of a diverse place like the United States. You will have "American soldiers" working side by side who have different ethnic backgrounds and were even born on other continents.

uh yes they execute ukraine daily.
During a war.
And fleeing? really? so if somebody takes your house by force and rapes your family you just flee?
Well, there's nothing they can do about the house but fleeing can prevent death and rape.
yeah sounds like a great solution
It's the reality of war.

Doesn't really matter most European tech is way ahead of the US anyway, it's just they the US pay stupid amounts to their own companies. I kinda feel most is tech is a super expensive con honestly.
I feel a cupholder on a US jet would be valued at something like 50,000. I'd honestly be really curious how a Rafale faded against say a f-35
My suspicion is an European jets would own an American ones while being a small fraction of the price.
Yesbim honestly saying while America spends stupid amount of. Defense they don't hold the slightest advantage tech wise.

No shit, so you do understand that if someone said the sentence quoted in the context of resistance, every person with a pulse will understand “they are shooting German troops soldiers or the Nazi” and not “every person with a German passport, who spoke German, etc.”?
We know that because we are describing a well documented war that happened in the past. If you were to come out with that quote in 1943 people would think they are shooting at everyone who is german.
You say i'm obtuse but i'm going to throw the ball back at you: you have to be obtuse not to notice the discrimination russians people are going under as a result of their government wrongdoings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Russian_sentiment

If USA were to invade mexico and someone would come up with the quote "they are literally shooting every american they spot on their soil" wouldn't it sound odd?
-
This is so cool. STOP FUNDING WAR.
-
You don't know that, and I'm skeptical that Trump would go to that much trouble to come up with an excuse. He hasn't needed an excuse to do anything else he's been doing.
What I would expect Trump to do is just pull support and if anybody asks him why, say loudly "America First!!!"
-
When are we going to stop this?
When congress starts impeachment proceedings. Call your representatives. Listening you complain is their job.
-
“they are shooting italians on the spot”
“they are shooting americans on the spot”
“they are shooting egyptians on the spot”
Replace the country with yours and perhaps you can understand how russian people may find it discriminatory

Derailing US political power is a good thing. Not good for the US, but good for the world.

Kent state happened as a massacre against unarmed students. Tiananmen Square happened after several weeks of protests, in which protestors murdered and burned some soldiers and took their weapons. Only then did the military intervene.

Ci fai o ci sei?
If someone said "in Afghanistan they were shooting Italians on the spot" I wouldn't find it discriminatory, because I am not an idiot, and I can immediately understand that they refer to the people who went there as a foreign army, not to random Italians.
It's so ridiculous that you are still here arguing about this, and you know why? Because you could have made the same argument about Ukrainians. OP said that Ukrainians are shooting Russians on the spot. Do you think OP meant that all Ukrainians are shooting all Russians? Do you think he meant that 2 yo Ukrainians, take out the pacifier to shoot the random Russian person who works at the local shop and is there for 20 years?
Or maybe the obvious message was that Ukrainian army is shooting Russians (in the invading army) on the spot?No no, let's go and divert attention on a useless conversation for a sentence that was obvious even to rocks.
In any case, do you understand that stating a fact is not discriminatory?
OP didn't say "I hope they kill every Russian", he said "they are shooting", which can't be discriminatory if it's a fact. Reality is not discriminatory. At most it could be false. -
Dude, I live in Estonia for 10 years, in a russian-speaking district. Unlike you, I understand russophobia.
This conversation is completely out of place in the context of OP statement. You are trying to discuss stuff that is completely irrelevant to what OP said. You are here to stir shit, to make the moral about russophobia in a post where nothing like that was present.
Again, if you didn't purposefully try to misinterpret OP's sentence, you would understand that in the context the sentence was clearly meant for Russian soldiers part of an invading force, and hating and shooting them has nothing to do with Russophobia.
Please, give me a sign you understand this basic concept. -
Are we also derailing Chinese and Russian power, and magically disarming all the nukes? Or are we just shitting on America and hoping nobody realizes that means there's going to be a power vacuum?
-
Yeah, I heard there are many Ukrainian kids living in Russia against their will after Russia stole them.
