It's okay, this chapter of Earth was beginning to suck anyway.

Do we actually believe this, though? It sounds an awful lot like nationalistic saber-rattling from a dying piece of shit.

That said, I was super wrong about January 6th so I'm not certain I'd listen to me.

I'm concerned that the sick sad little man will nuke a corner of the world because we laughed at him for falling down and shitting himself.

Egos are an interesting facet of the mind.

I refuse to accept one man has that much power. I prefer to think that someone would stop him.

Then again, history repeats itself. Being a yes man is profitable.

This war has bummed me out for nearly a year. It shouldn't be possible in this day and age and yet it is. Hundreds of thousands dead, millions injured and displaced, billions/trillions in damage, unknown ripples through the world economy, all to feed some short ex-intelligence officer's hard-on for a revitalization of the USSR.

I thought we as a species (we don't talk about NK) moved past this. We're doing so well with our corporate overlords.

Why isnt it possible in this day and age? Has MAN PROOOOOGGGGRESSED as you like to believe? NOT SO FAST amigo!

Once again, NATO sticking their big western noses and meddling with other countries, just like they did with Cyprus in the 70s. The difference being Russia can actually retaliate.

This would all be over if the west just dialed it back, but they've got too$$oo$$$$ooo$$ much interest (strategic as well) in that Ukraine place

One thing we both agree on, its a damn shame so many people will die/suffer for this stupidity. I am a firm believer that we should have a politician MMA/Boxing/Kumite to settle disputes. It would save a lot of heartache and be WAY more entertaining..
