      They have been so used to getting everything they want for so long that they are unable to imagine a situation that doesn’t resolve in them getting their maximalist demands fulfilled.

      Trade? That’s when I get to plunder the world for free.

      Diplomacy? That’s when I tell people what I want and they give it to me.

      War? That’s when we bomb someone back to the stone age without even getting a dent in our multi-billion dollar death machines.

              Good idea cause the views depend heavily on context, what countries are involved, and the existing trade relationships between the countries.

                It mostly highlights how I view things. I’m not a huge fan of states using their citizens to fight over shit, so I have pretty reductio type views.

                  That’s fair, I don’t imagine most anyone here would disagree with the sentiment. But the next question is to start asking why it is that states end up fighting, right?

            My favorite recent example of that was a Politico article about members of the DNC becoming worried Biden won’t win re-election. I decided to wade into /r/politics for the first time in probably 5 years just to see their reaction. Every comment dismissing the polling numbers and painting the article as hyped-up nonsense for clicks. From the same people who love sharing any poll that says “X% of Republicans won’t vote for Trump”

    Hamas is acting in self defense. There is absolutely nothing they could do to end the genocide at this point. They’ve offered countless peace deals where Israel could get the hostages back, but Israel doesn’t want hostages, they want the land.

    I also love this bit bragging how Europe spends more money on fighting Russia than US

    And in the meantime, what happened was, we were able to—and by the way, we spent a lot of money in Ukraine, but Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively. Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively Europe has spent more money in taking on Russia.

    Biden: I can do it better than anybody you know. You’re looking at me, I can take you too.

    And guess what they’re, you know, they’re, they’re…what they call it? Going around the world? The Belt and Road initiative? It’s become a nuisance graveyard initiative. I’m serious. Think about it. I’ve been saying this for three years, and you guys write, “No, China’s on the right—China’s gonna break through.” Where are they, where are they breaking through? And look what’s happening in Africa.

        For example, you may recall a resolution I introduced at the G20 that no one thought would go anywhere and it passed by providing for a railroad and oil line, uh, oil, excuse me, I misspoke. Railroad lines and transportation, all the way from Riyadh—to Saudi Arabia, to Jordan, to Israel, all through Europe and continuing.

          I thought the Israel-Palestine war has kept that stalled.

    We are much stronger in the Pacific than we ever were before. China, by the way, China is very concerned about it. They asked me—I’ve spent more time with Xi Jinping than any leader in the world, over 90 hours alone with him since I’ve been Vice President. And we have a very candid relationship.

    You know, I don’t have any (unintelligible) He wanted to know why I was doing all these things. I said the simple reason I’m doing those things: to make sure that you don’t, that you aren’t able to change the status quo any.

    “I don’t know why you wouldnt write about that, the Russian army had been decimated.”

    Shut the fuck up old man.

    People talk about how republicans insist on being treated with kids gloves, imagine trying to criticize the press for UNDERreporting how poorly russia was doing.

    Were having a nationwide identity crisis as libs and chuds try to figure out why people are talking about ukraine losing after 2 straight years of saying it’s a totally one sided conflict and russia was out of ammunition soldiers and vehicles since the beginning.

      It’s particularly hilarious to see libs dismissing outlets like NYT as Russian propaganda now because they’re forced to start grudgingly acknowledging the reality.

      I was really hoping that the editor’s note for that would point out that Biden was technically correct because Roman decimation only removed a 10th of their fighting forces. Instead it was just pure propaganda
