It’s time for you guys to decide whether you want direct war with Russia or not. Imagining that they aren’t ready for it, and this is just a diversion, is seriously risky. I’m nervous with how Europeans are getting bolder the more Ukraine fails to fulfil its military objectives. Nobody is doing more than doubling down on political narratives that were dry in 2022.

What’s communism?

I’ve seen some of those while out and about. In the first place I have a long gap, often months, between seeing commercials (and thanks to Lemmy for being part of what makes that possible). It feels like they are advertising the high that comes from sleep deprivation. That’s not being locked in, it’s killing yourself.

First of all, you probably still don’t even know if the article is shitty, you lazybones. You’re not my editor, so my posts will never meet your imaginary posting standards. Especially now that you’re blocked for being so annoying after being given far too much magnaminity. 😮‍💨

No, it could not have had a title that fit your imaginary posting standards. That would have required me to either share them, or intuit and care about them. The post would then go against /c/worldnews rules against editorializing in title text. You did read those before quadrupling down, right?

It’s remarkable that you think there is some sort of point to be made about how it’s good you don’t click before commenting, and I will take it seriously. You seem crabby and have nothing to add, so please go away.

The entire US economy has been running off of an asset megabubble that demands global dollar recycling via Wall St. and property for decades now. This is much worse than 2008 as there is no cushioning. We will see what 20+ of doubling down looks like in the end.

Usually. I will admit it is usually body or air. Sometimes though

It’s a succinct article that lays out a timeline of events so we can better discuss the possibility of invasion. It takes care of the basics, so we can move to the geopolitical. How much can the US escalate? How much is bluster? How much of the bluster is so politically insane that it must be followed through on? There is a reason General MacArthur never became president.

Didn’t ask.

You gotta hit em with the old “im a patsy”

I can move things with the Power of My Mind

So many people in this world need to die

Yeah just keep pointing out their hypocrisy while they shovel another twelve hundred people’s remains into unmarked graves why don’t you

Every day I wish for the ability to go back in time to stop the release of that idiotic movie Wag thr Dog. This is not a cohesive explanation. It’s clear he will face no consequences for being a child rapist. Which should make sense considering he is overseeing the largest modern day rape and genocide opetation possible, why would his hogs draw a line there?

You follow my reasoning here? There’s so much more to what producrs the jingoistic US leadership ideology than accomplishing petty personal goals. The US lives off of predating on poor countries like this, and their development is a fundamental threat to its way of life.

Great, who is going to tell me that kids need to get infected with airborne AIDS in order to protect the rich now?

Brazil must invent Lua 2.

Well, that’s the current level of escalation. Tomahawks are more serious. Contrary to popular belief, the US has been reticent to tread across the red lines given years ago.

Controversial thought, but I’ve always doubted US willingness to respond to even tactical nuclear weapons if they are used outside of NATO countries.

I’m just not convinced they can restrain themselves.

The president cannot break the law. That would be illegal.
