    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    It's not about getting rich. It's about control. Putin doesn't want to let go of the USSR. Whether or not you believe it, Putin is a sort of would-be conqueror. This conflict is not a gang war. That would imply multiple criminal groups on relatively equal standing all vying for supremacy of the...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    The good news is this type of ridiculous anti-reality rhetoric is useless now, since Biden is not running again.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    Right. And your opinion is wrong and based on your anti-NATO bias, not reality. The first problem here is listening to Stevicus. He also has a very pro-Russia, anti-NATO bias, so I understand why his comments would appeal to you, but they aren't good for rational discussion of the issue. He...

    Sigh. They are not, but I guess this is easier than taking them to heart or actually addressing them. Have a good day.

    Project 2025 Review - Forward

    Sigh. You're supporting it by trying desperately to find redeeming ideas in it. You should reject it because of its far-right agenda.

    Project 2025 Review - Forward

    That's true. Neither of us has to think that way. I choose to because it's the correct way to think about it. You choose not to because your agenda is to promote the conservative agenda, which means not condemning an agenda that deserves to be condemned and trying to defend it in a way that you...

    Project 2025 Review - Forward

    You're welcome. If you need further help with figuring out what things actually mean, I'm here. I fully understand why you think this is a worthwhile tactic, even though it's not. This is your attempt to support and defend your conservatives. "Well, it might have some good ideas." Cool, no one...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    Did you really just try to use the expression on someone's face in an old painting as some sort of evidence for factual history? Seriously?

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    At least you don't try to hide your inability to look at these things in a rational way. The fact that you openly admit that you subscribe to the "she was asking to get raped" nonsense pretty much disqualifies any of your views.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    No, I understand you fine. I don't care if you're Indian or anything else. You are not an independent view, and you are not calling a spade a spade. I'm not basing my comments on your personal traits or nationality. I'm basing it on your comments. You are extremely pro-Russia, anti-Ukraine and...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    It would be nice if you'd stop for a minute and actually listen, so you don't keep repeating this complete drivel. Russia has no say in what Ukraine does. Russia brought the war on Ukraine. Ukraine wanted protection because of this exact problem. Ukraine has every right to try to join NATO...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    I know. Because you are very pro-Russia and buy into Putin's propaganda. The fact remains Russia has annexed parts of Ukraine, so whatever you believe is irrelevant in the face of that fact. So, they've occupied parts of Ukraine, but they don't want a part of it. Makes sense. Of course they...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    No, that is where Russia erred. I have no say in what my neighbor does. They're welcome to join a pool, if they want. Them doing something I don't like doesn't give me the right to get violent with them. Ukraine didn't err. Russia did. It would be best if you'd grasp this very basic concept.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    Sure, NATO is the root of the trouble the same way the police are the root of the trouble when an abusive husband beats his wife for wanting to go to them to step him from beating her. See if you can understand this finally: Ukraine wanted to join NATO to protect themselves from exactly what...

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    He has. Putin's concerns are Ukraine joining NATO and wanting at least part of Ukraine for Russia. Ukraine obviously doesn't want any of that. So, Russia's invasion continues unless they get what they want.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    Uh, yes, it did and does. You keep saying this, as if it's a reasonable take. It doesn't matter what Russia wants. Ukraine can do what it wants. If Russia doesn't like it, they don't have the right to invade. Ukraine did nothing wrong. Russia did.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    What does this even mean? Sure. I don't want my neighbor to join the local pool. They tried to do just that. So, I broke into their house, beat them up and threw them out. They made an unwise move.

    How Odd Is Putin's Russia?

    Nope. It is Russia that brought the war on Ukraine, because they wanted to join NATO. Stop with the Russian propaganda.

    Project 2025 Review - Forward

    We shouldn't treat Iran the same as Canada. That's a strawman. No, countries don't say "but what can you do for us". Sometimes countries just do things because they're the right thing to do. I know, shocking to conservatives who have no sense of helping other people just to do the right thing...
