As far as you can imagine, Russia, the largest country on planet Earth, which keeps threatening to nuke the world if it loses in Ukraine and is internally governed as if it was the novel "1984", is not a problem. Well, aren't you a special child, little Signym?

But then I'm not surprised when Trump supporters I know get killed by problems they can't imagine. For example, the Trump voter next door who was murdered by her 40 year old son couldn't imagine he'd poison her, although it was easy for me to imagine from knowing the Trump voting son. It was no surprise when she left the house in an ambulance. Also no surprise when her other son served 10 years for negligent homicide because he was drunk driving, although none, not one, of the Trump supporters who knew the family could imagine it. Wow! Such a stupid bunch of people all defending, even voting for, Trump. I know 6ix has made some astonishingly stupid personal decisions. I know Signym was astonishing when she publicized her medical story, thinking nobody but the one intended person would read it before she deleted it. Remember, Signym? http://fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=58882&mid=11475

As you can probably tell, my opinion of Trump voters is highly influenced by what happens to Trump voters when they are NOT voting. The same brain that picked Trump, and decides Russia invading Ukraine is not a problem for the US, is the brain that runs the rest of their lives so poorly. Can that brain know they are doing poorly because of their lack of imagination and their poor decisions? No. Instead it blames the Democrats.

SIGNY: As far as I got.
Answer: none.

SECOND: As far as you can imagine, Russia, the [physically]
largest country on planet Earth, which keeps threatening to nuke the world if it loses in Ukraine and is internally governed as if it was the novel "1984", is not a problem.



a) It doesn't matter how big Russia is, physically. Most of it is frozen tundra. Makes as much sense as saying Antarctica is a threat because it's big.

Unless you're lusting after reources. Are you? You've mentioned that more than once.

b) Clearly, you haven't read "1984" or you would have recognized more than a passing resemblance to the USA, which is a OUR problem. If Russia truly is ruled as you say it is, that is a problem for RUSSIANS, not for me. Or you.

AFA Russia threatening with nukes... aside from the fact that there is only one nation on the whole planet that actually USED nukes in war (not Russia)... well, that problem isn't exactly going to be resolved by going to war with Russia, or attempting to regime-change, is it?

So far, you haven't posted one solid reason why we should intervene in that shithole of a country (Ukraine). It is poor BECAUSE it's corrupt. Studies show that corruption begets poverty, and considering how corrupt the USA is, it will be the death-knell of the USA. Maybe we better get working on OUR problems. Right?

*****

All that hyperbolic language, that's what got you into Vietnam, wasn't it?
And you ... what? Want to have other Americans experience the same kind of worthless destructive war that you did? You think it "builds character" or something?

This happened 5 minutes ago: Trump voter and super fat lady across the street was carrying her baby on her left arm and had a cigarette in her right hand. She dropped the baby in the street. She won't remember next month what she did wrong, but the damage to the baby is real. The kind of people who vote for Trump, at least in Texas, don't understand what they have done wrong. By the way, super fat lady is opposed to Ukraine for, per usual, super stupid reasons. It is wonderful to be a Trump voter. They never know doubt that they are the smartest, wisest, most important people in America, but are being held down by those nasty Democrats and all the money they spend on Ukrainians when the money could be better spent on angry poor white trash.

Fat lady didn't waste that cigarette. She placed it between her lips, then picked up her squalling child from the pavement. That's a Trump loving mother!

That's hilarious!

Did she have a Trump/Pence bumper sticker on her fat ass, or was it on her forehead?


Sounds like your neighbors are as useless as you and your entire family are.

I'm starting to think that everybody in Texas must be a real piece of shit.

And SECOND followed that wall of gibberish with a wall of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

I think it's all mixed up in his mind.

You write beautifully, but you're not beautiful.

Three possible futures for a frozen conflict in Ukraine

By late 2023, Western consensus is fraying. Concerned by economic costs, Ukrainian suffering, refugee burdens, and fears of escalation (including the risk of a nuclear attack by Russia), Germany and France lead a multinational effort to press Kyiv to exploring a peace arrangement with Moscow.

In none of the scenarios does the war end in less than a year. In all cases, the economic damage will be profound not just for Ukraine, but also for the rest of the world. Don't forget, this war was Putin's decision and completely unnecessary.

Aw shucks, here is another post you can ignore. Europe and the United States are going to build back a modern Ukraine. New schools, hospitals, cultural centers, army, you name it. It's called a Marshal Plan.

No such luck for Russia comrade. Can_you_see_me_laughing?

That's terrible news for Ukranians.

They certainly should handle building their own border walls and not rely on America to handle that part.

Come to think of it, they should also rely on anybody but America to handle their public schools, their hospitals, their cultural centers and their army too.


But at least you spelled Marshal right, Ted. Second, who was in the military, couldn't spell Marshal the other day.

You've been upgraded to 2nd stupidest person in the RWED.

Congratulations.
