actual plot of a prattchet book

to protect JOBS probably

Ukraine to defend themselves.

Do you think the people of eastern ukraine have a right to defend themselves?

china dominates the consumer goods market, period. by these standards the chinese have been supplying every NATO war for the past 20 years.

they would never attack germany. its too risky.

ok there were no risks involved. even if they bombed the pipeline, they will surely pay reparations.

ok they won’t ever pay reparations. but its not like they have to. we were never going to use the pipeline anyways!

i wonder what’s next

Why would I have a positive opinion of yanks in the future?

Why ask about the future, when it’s a mystery in the present as well. You’re the one who thinks they’ll pay reparations for something they think you deserved.

You weren’t supposed to buy cheap resources from Russia. You never had the permission to.

To be fair, the democrats were absolutely bloodthirsty when Obama was elected warlord and he waged war against the peoples of Syria and Libya. It’s a bipartisan problem affecting both liberal parties.

I’m currently serving in the US military and am very confident that Western media at large is on the money

‘thank you for your service’, you say when someone describes their career pushing paper in the afghani legation quarter

But realistically speaking the US would probably willingly pay damages and reparations.

you really do live in an alternative reality. This is the most insane thing you’ve written in this entire conversation. And even so:

Materially or in some diplomatic quid pro quo manner and all of that is going to happen behind closed doors and we’ll know once records get unsealed.

It’s just a cover for how reality slowly sets in. You went from believing that the US would never attack Germany to saying that, actually, the US would totally pay reparations for bombing Nordstream. They’d just do it behind closed doors in order to save face.

You’ll get nothing, and you’ll be happy to pay all the damages yourself, my friend. And once the records are unsealed you’ll be in your 60s, swearing up and down that such skullduggery from the Americans are in the past.

person posts about the civility of people complaining about NATO led mass murders

you can’t just conclude they care more about civility than NATO’s warmongering

thats a very lemmy.midwest thing to say

As a third party can see, the risk to the Americans really was zero. Everything to gain, nothing to possibly lose. What, are the Germans gonna rebel somehow? They’ll fall over themselves to pretend the chains aren’t even there.

You say that like your know their level of concern or activity in regards to those.

it’s self evident, given the issues they raise

it was the standard foreign aid the US throws around to advance it’s interests.

It’s quite telling that the US has triggered so many coups around the world that you can call it ‘the standard foreign aid’. How the hell do you think coups come about?

What? There was no risk and there was a ridiculous amount of money to be made. You have people in the intelligence community talking since the early 2000s how important it is to ‘empower poland, to drive a wedge between germany and russia’. The Americans had been threatening to ‘do something about’ the pipeline for years. And when they did it, the pan European media blackout made sure there was no risk involved. You yourself is a proof of that.

Meanwhile Europe will deindustrialize while paying hand over fist for American gas. They must also continue to dismantle their welfare state and spend that money in American weapons. But european governments don’t care, they are all personally invested in american investment funds shares anyway. Why else would the german foreign minister claim that the opinion of german voters are not relevant to her?

Vassals at least had a two way relationship with the King. This is borderline colonial.

comment number 5 by guy who definitely wouldn’t waste his time and was definitely not owned

Tfw they are so right you gotta block them at first sight.

what do you expect will happen if you stop funding Ukraine defense against war crimes? You think Russians just go home?

The Russian Ukrainians will be able to stay in their homes without fear of genocide by the NATO backed government.

You drive others deeper into their position

You say that like they haven’t held that position through multiple farcical wars.

I’m not the one driving them deeper into their position. They have chosen to do so themselves. Which is why they are more concerned about my civility than the millions starved and killed in the name of the rules based international order.

“I think Western institutions and media are not being entirely honest about their geopolitical opinions” is not like the phrasing I see from hexbear users out in the wild.

What you see is the logical conclusion of when you step back and realize that people are always supporting this year’s war drive and claiming last year’s war drive is ancient history and all in the past.

colonization is when russians aren’t genocided and get to live in russia

wanna decolonize eastern ukraine and crimea? give them to kazakhstan
