I'm sure he'll think real hard about what he's done on the way home. Maybe even dry his tears with the truckloads of money and munitions Harris is complicit in handing him without reservation to commit genocide with.

You won't be able to drive them on the road unless the DoT has done safety testing on that specific model of car. You can own one, you're just not going to be able to put plates on it or get it insured.

Presumably there are enough sane Ukrainian officials left to not want to wake up to nuclear hellfire.

While I wouldn't put it past Google/YouTube to do something as shitty as this, I think people are far too quick to assume foul play over the much more likely possibility that the world's largest video platform occasionally shits itself.

The US once again going through a dozen Suez Canal crises all at once, each one somehow more cartoonishly stupid than the last.

At this point I feel like if you want to radicalize someone just point them to a picture of that barely-welded-together mess and tell them their tax money went towards that to the tune of $320 million.

Never would've happened. Western capital saw the vast natural wealth of the Soviet bloc the way a starving wolf sees a steak, and were never going to allow the new Russian bourgeoisie to join the West as equals. When it became clear that Russia wasn't going to sell itself out to foreign capital, the West responded by violating every agreement they'd made with Yeltsin to bring about the end of the USSR and isolating them.

Either Trump is an existential threat that requires the strongest possible response, or he's just another corrupt asshole in a country dominated by others like him.

And before you go "but America doesn't do that sort of thing!", I'd encourage you to look up Fred Hampton.

West: Coups border country on Russian borders, pumps weapons into said country, gleefully profits off of ensuing war, sanctions Russia, repeatedly drums up how Russia would be better off glassed

Russia: Alright then, no more fishing rights in our territorial waters.

West: frothingfash

smuglord My country, which has killed more people than any other geopolitical entity in human history and is ruled by a literal monarchy, is clearly free and egalitarian, unlike that horrific autocratic nightmare of...

...a tiny Central American nation that's been routinely bombed and exploited for its entire existence.

I'm begging liberals to remember the one cool thing they ever did, which was chopping off their monarchs' heads, and commit to that. Just that. Come on now, this is an argument that's been solved for like 200 years now: monarchs and aristocrats are dogshit and deserve to be forcibly removed from their positions of wealth and authority.
