Quoted: You’re dodging the question rather well. Why? @former11bravo Why do you insist on posting straight up russian propaganda? View Quote Why do you insist on harassing me? I never intentionally posted shit. I am against the US bankrupting itself to support a corrupt, third world shit-hole. That doesn't make me "pro Russian" in the slightest.

The local commissar, errr, I mean election official will line people up by 20 at a time and ask: Who here is against joining the beloved motherland of Russia? One person steps forward and says I am against it. The commissar pulls a Makorov shoots him in the head and then asks: Is there anyone else reluctant to vote to join Russia?

Quoted: So when do we stop being on the hook for the "self defense" of other nation States? Because if we keep footing the bill, they essentially become satellite States of the US. It would be ridiculous to suggest that continued financial support doesn't come with conditions View Quote We aren’t on the hook for the defense of nations outside of a relatively small number of allies to whom we have explicitly bound ourselves. We CHOOSE other alliances. |

Quoted: Well if you want to keep playing Team America: World Police, then good on ya. How did that work out again for the last 20+ years? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: That's the dumbest statement I've heard in GD for a long time, and that's saying something Thank you for writing this detailed and thoughtful response, your feedback is not valuable It's foolish to suggest that only the largest countries can have self defense. Ukraine was invited by Russia. That is a fact. Russia invaded in a war of expansion. That is a fact. Ukraine is defending itself from that invasion. I never said they couldn't defend themselves, I just said they should do it on their own dime. No. You said that it's not "self-defense" I don't think you understand the meaning of that phrase. I said it wasn't self defense because we are paying for it. Try to keep up The definition of self defense doesn't change based on who pays for it. Ukraine is still doing the fighting, dying, and killing. Well if you want to keep playing Team America: World Police, then good on ya. How did that work out again for the last 20+ years? Well technically this time it is Team America "gun store". Team America World Police implies American troops are fighting. So... different this time. We will see how it works out! |

Did you meanies chase off Oswald[#?]....aka Osvaldovich already?
It was getting spicy, but Cincinnatus hasn't yet mastered the house cat technique of letting a mouse squirm a bit while pretending to ignore it. Either way, I was enjoying the return of Primorsky (or was it supposed to be Primorski?). What up, dog??? It has been forever since we had the Kremlin up in this bitch. Good times, people. |

Quoted: He got his mobilization letter ![]() View Quote Ah crap. I admit to being selfish, but I want him to survive the coming doom in order to crawl out from the rubble and post glorious posts of a fresh propaganda dawn. Hope springs eternal? Sure, but the Russkies I knew were more sanguine: Hope is the last to die. |

Quoted: Who's Scott Ritter? Scott Ritter, the former United Nations weapons inspector caught in an online sex sting has been found guilty of six charges, including unlawful contact with a minor, after exchanging explicit messages with a 15-year-old girl in an online chatroom and then performing a sex act on himself. Scott Ritter, 49, exchanged sexual messages with a detective posing as an underage girl and masturbated even after the undercover officer stressed during the chat that she was a minor, prosecutors said. It’s a good idea to avoid watching creepy Scott Ritter videos. View Quote Damn, sounds like he's qualified to be POTUS. |
