You mean the assets the EU has seized and has started selling off?

Really, the only thing Russia has to rely on is China. They’ll get themselves so in-debt trying to rebuild their economy and China will have them by the balls (like they have with so many countries already).

But selling and loaning is only a temporary thing. None of that means a damned thing if it doesn’t result in something physical and real-world. But a lot of the population needed to make that possible is now lying face-down in Ukraine.

It became the new banking capital of the world because Europe was utterly devastated, needed to rebuild, but none of the currencies were worth shit.

It’s literally that which caused the United States to enter this wonderful golden age of capitalism.

I really hate it when American politician talk about this era as if America did something so right all by themselves. No, Europe was just destroyed. It made them money. You’re welcome.

To the next country… With what resources? They’re spending all their resources just to gain a few metres of territory over the course of an entire year.

All those young, able bodied working people dying to a drone attack after just two weeks of training.

Russia shouldn’t get a chunk of Ukraine as that will encourage them to invade other countries… If they’d have anything left to invade with.

See, the problem with all the “Russia will fall” rhetoric over the years is that the expectation is on a far too short time frame.

No, Russia will not fall tomorrow, or next month, or next year. And probably not even for the entire duration of this war. Hell, they might even get a chunk of Ukraine at the end of it.

But I doubt Russia will financially bounce back from this. Their “fall” is, in my eyes, going to be a slow and painful attempt to still have an economy as they realise winning isn’t really winning if you’ve spent everything on it.

America is Israel’s bitch. The US/Israeli relationship existed well before Trump or Biden or Obama.

Hamas aren’t friendly lovable rebels. They’re a product of oppression, people turned extreme using extreme measures.

This would be the silliest version of it.

A burger or a sausage is more like a format of food rather than a specific ingredient of food. It would be like saying things sold as a “loaf” can only be made of wheat.

I’ve had militant vegan neighbours when I was a student. I don’t know how they did it, but they found ways of turning every conversation about them and their “superior” life choices.

Then there are the vegans I sometimes meet during my summer work ours; the ones standing on the street and bothering everyone walking past them in a very persistent manner. Like a jehova’s witness.

I’m not saying every vegan is like this. I think I’ve met more vegans that didn’t rub it in everyone’s face than ones that did. But consider yourself lucky that you haven’t met anyone like that in twenty years.

I’m very much against the self righteous types of vegans that go around reminding everyone like they’re an Arch user.

But… This is a stupid waste of EU time and resources. We have a lot more pressing matters to concern ourselves with than something literally nobody is confused about.

Some people in certain positions must be incredibly petty to even suggest this.

You can target something specific with a riot.

I disagree. We’re past the point where peaceful protests will create change. It’s abundantly obviously that those in charge do not care. And they also got it in their heads that AI makes us less necessary.

If leaders and executives won’t listen to reason, then it’s time to instil fear into them. Remind them there are so many more of us than them, and that their positions are a service to us, not a privilege or an entitlement.

At what point are people going to riot?

The most expected outcome of the expedition.

Exactly the kind of thing Israel would do. Very consistent and predictable of them.

You have farmers who hunt, right?

Popcorn…? Or bullets?

A bit alarming perhaps, but BRICS also has Egypt already part of it. Might be that Palestine likes the idea of having a close-by ally. Or Iran, as an enemy of Israel.

Tony Blair to rule Gaza for five years. What the fuck is that weird ass fan fiction of reality!? XD

“It’s not your fault that you haven’t struck it big yet in your life, it’s the insert minority/marginalized group of the month’s fault.” They truly believe that the AfD will help them.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t that how it literally started with Adolf Hitler!?

There is money required for running campaigns and advertisements and making deals.

What it won’t do is magically populate a country with fascists, supremacists, and other extreme right wing types. Those would have to already be around.

AfD just scored high in the pols. A lot of them probably consider it high praise. :(
