Stupidest man in the Senate.
The United States, my country, is a gold plated shithole. A garbage country and society in name only with a sociopathic culture of “whether I got mine or not, fuck you.”
That being said, we are the absolute best, God like relatively speaking, at one thing and one thing only: Warfare. The killing lots of humans in high volume business. We have no peer in that one respect.
In this tortured metaphor, that high school team has the advantage of being aided in technology, tactics, and intelligence by the entirety of the NFL.
And that high school team has absolutely ran up the score board against the college team, making them look like chumps. So in retaliation, the college team tackles the high school teams cheerleaders and fans on the sidelines.
So eloquently put.
I’m sure there’s a ( R )eason.
Tommy Tuberville the military hating Putin sycophant? That Tommy Tuberville?
meanwhile, Russia is pulling its 80-year-old Soviet war machines out of mothballs just to keep up with Ukraine’s “Junior High Team"
Oh look, another republican traitor publicly fellating putin.
Proclame here proclame there…
Seems to me Russia is getting its butt kicked severely!
Alone? Probably not. But that doesnt mean it isnt worth fighting. And they dont stand alone either.
Weird how that kinda also applied to 13 colonies facing the British circa 1776 Tommy, eh? You smooth-brained cock-wipe of a half-wit.
Now I’m convinced Ukraine will win.
By that logic we would have lost the American Revolution.
It’s a junior high team paying against a college team that never learned how to play football.
Meanwhile, Russia are losing artilleries, areas controlled, and had over 250K killed as a result of combat. That being said, Ukraine can defeat them and we will continue supporting them.
Be careful with that koolaid, man.
So because one country is weaker we should allow the stronger nation to simply take it over?
Why do we even take any of this B’s for face value? He’s just a shill teeing up the narrative for his financers.
We aren’t taking them at face value. His voters probably are though.
Mitch McConnell is barely with it and Lindsey Graham is paralyzed by fear of getting named in Georgia’s case against Trump, so Putin has had to put his 3rd string on the field.
This war isn’t meant to be won, it’s meant to be continuous. And the US is killing Ukrainians and Russians in the name of protecting MIC profits.
Yeah, nah.
This war is Russia killing Ukrainians. Russia made the decision to invade a foreign country. Russia has all the blame.
I’m not an expert on these things, but I’m pretty sure Russians and Ukrainians are doing a fine job of killing each other without direct U.S. intervention.
We sent 76 billion dollars worth of aid to Ukraine in a year and a half. That is four times their own defense budget for 2023. We’re funding their defense. It’s a proxy war between US and Russia. I mean, we’ve already been intervening – in 2014 we were trying to influence the outcome of their government during their revolution, you can read some analysis here: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957.amp
Edit: if you flipped it on it’s head, this war is like if Mexico had a revolution that overthrew their corrupt government, and while the protests were happening Russia was supporting key members of the ones overthrowing the government. US feels threatened that our neighbor is strengthening ties with our enemy, and so we invade Mexico. It’s obviously not right for the US to invade sovereign Mexico. It’s obviously not right that Russia is fucking around in Mexico’s revolution. But in this case, Russia doesn’t care if Mexico beats back the invading US, they just want to keep supplying them with weapons to prop up Russia’s own domestic “defense” industry, prop up the economy, claim moral necessity, unite the party against a common enemy, bobs your uncle, you’re elected again
Funny how the war would end tomorrow if Russia went back the fuck home.
Lol… whatever you say, Ivan.
You’re hilarious.
Don’t forget that it’s politically advantageous to have a big bad enemy country to unite your party. For Democrats, it’s Russia. For Republicans, it’s China.
Obviously both Russia and China are authoritarian as all fuck, but Israel is an authoritarian occupier as well, and we’re perfectly fine with them.
Democratic Party are also against China.
- Signed, a millennial Democrat against China.
Sure, but who isn’t “against” China in the West? They commit atrocities left and right.
But I think it’d be more difficult to find many who’d support military conflict with China, proxy or otherwise.
Edit: honestly, scratch that. I think it would be pretty easy to get popular support for a conflict with China, in the same way it was easy to get popular and unwavering support for a conflict with Russia
Hard to tell, is that a double, trifecta, or grand slam of whattaboutism?
In any case, hats off. Your skills are on point.
I mean, there’s really only one whataboutism in my comment (what about Palestine and Israel), but sure, you can say there are four in there.
And honestly I think it’s a fair point. The US is not purely interested in defending nation states from authoritarian occupation, because if we were, we’d not support the state of Israel in their oppression of Palestinians. So there must be other factors behind our support for Ukraine, some might be legitimate (protecting Ukrainian exports to keep global economy stable) and others not so much (protecting profits for private arms companies). And I think it’s more likely the latter, considering the size of our “defense” budget.
What do you have to say to that? I’m interested in your take, not in you just accusing me of whataboutism.
