War in Ukraine

As I said...

Operation Spiderweb 'gave Putin a reason to bomb the hell out of them,' Trump says, following large-scale attacks on Ukrainian cities

 

Russia lowers interest rates to 20% in first cut since 2022 as inflation pressures ease

 

One only has to look at those tweets to see how whacked out these people really are.

 

like they weren’t already doing that? And attacks on military targets give Russia an “excuse” to bomb civilians? That excuse is almost as weak as Trump.

 

Innocent civilians have been killed in every war. It is part of what makes the other side surrender. Look at Japan in WWII. War is about breaking things and killing people!!

 

The phrase you are looking for is breaking your enemy’s will to fight. However there is a difference between collateral damage and intentionally killing civilians. We are dealing with the later here.

 

When we dropped the 2 atomic bombs on Japan they knew most of the deaths (estimated at almost a quarter of a million people) would be civilians. It was a major part of winning the war. And I have no qualms about doing so.

 

Well done
Accurate representation of the issues

 

thanks grandpa - before you posted that I had no idea… it also has nothing to do with my post.

 

The us made the right decision to drop the bombs imo, but saying you have no qualms about it is basically saying you have no empathy or humanity. We should of course have “qualms” about killing innocent people using nukes and if we don’t that is a reflection on our character.

 

It's fun when Trump supporters voice their agreement with Putin intentionally killing civilians.

 

I suspect that war crimes by the far-right ultra-nationalist Kyiv regime have been legion …

 

It's classic Otherism. In the ancient past it was used to annihilate other tribes. Our modern usage is more subtle, but identical in principle; it's OK to harm people who are different.

There's a reason that practically the first words out of Trump's mouth when he first ran for office were his lies about "Mexican rapist immigrants"; "they're not like you and me."


Othering refers to the process of perceiving or labeling individuals or groups as distinct and often inferior to oneself or one's own group. It involves creating a sense of "us" versus "them" and can lead to discrimination, prejudice, and exclusion. Othering can manifest in subtle ways, such as attributing negative qualities to those who are different, or in overt forms, such as overt discrimination.

 

Don’t most of your ChatGPT record playing messages involve labeling?

 

Key word in this paragraph is “claim”

 

1) No the video doesn't prove that Pakistan doesn't fund the Taliban. Copley says they don't. I know he has met with the top guy at ISI.

2) Scott Adams has a fairly high IQ. Probably in the 137-142 range imo

3) I actually wrote all of "her" tweets.

4) I think Serena was on PEDs.

 

1. So Copley says the ISI does not fund the Taliban? And it is because the ISI says they do not? And which top guy at the ISI?

2. You did not answer the question. Do you think that was a compliment?

3. So that is your Twitter account?

 

Now I remember why I stopped on this thread. The last two pages are all responding to one person and advance the discussio in exactly zero ways.

 

Just think of it as two pages showing you how crazy you have to be and the crackpots you have to follow to be a Russian simp.

 

Problem solved, huh?
