  1. Then you should wish for the war to stop and for America to stop funding the proxy war “just enough” for perpetual conflict. The Ukrainian govt is forcing their fathers and sons to fight, many against their will. Russian citizens are also thrown into the meat grinder against their will. If you’re going to respond with “Russia can retreat and stop the war whenever”.. well, that’s not going to happen. I also think you vastly overestimate the humanity from the Ukrainian side .. they are not, and have not for years, been innocent in all this. As usual, NATO expansion and the MIC destroys another region of the world.
  2. This sentiment has been all over Twitter from Ukrainians. So done with this war and “pretending” like there are any good guys. The conflict is far deeper than what western media has propagandized. Russia went way too far by invading eastern Ukraine. That is a valid point that anyone should concede. That said, Russia’s govt is evil and Ukraines is corrupt. Americans would be shocked at the level of sub-humanity in the conflict, from the Russians obviously.. but also from the Ukrainians. It’s always been there. Media just won’t report it. Mask off.
  3. There is no doubt. This is a secular religion. The true followers of this new religion are deep rooted in narcissism and the self. Its corporate spirituality endorsed/promoted by world governments to be consumed by the masses.
  4. Guess what .. I’m betting most of us here will say this is disgusting too. Kids should not be exposed to overt sexuality or crude behavior. Thing is.. your example is far, far less common than the daily occurrence of LGBTQ exposing children to twerking men and simulated sex acts for whatever narcissistic, self-loathing reasons they have.
  5. I don’t know that this is very fair. How many FA’s have we even really targeted at all on offense with Beane? To take out the two biggest signings because they were known commodities - even when those two known commodities both had their best year in Buffalo - is a bit disingenuous. How many other signings have we even had? The core has been QB, LT, C, TE, WR1, WR2, RB and Slot for much of their tenure. Doesn’t leave a whole lot of room for diamond in the rough FA signings.. even though Ryan Bates should qualify, albeit as a trade move. This past year, I’ll agree .. Saffold was a disaster, Howard couldn’t even make the team and they bet on oft-injured Crowder, who.. got injured.
  6. Probably true. Non-cucked Bernie was similarly anti-establishment.
  7. Accurate summation of the indictment for anyone who’s personality does not revolve around Trump (positively or negatively)
  8. I don’t know that we’d be out of the woods under Trump.. He certainly wasn’t some fiscal conservative. That said, I do thing it’s worthy to consider: -What would energy prices look like under Trump? -Would Russia have fully invaded Ukraine? -Would he have curtailed some of the hyper-spending as we exited the pandemic and pushed the country in its entirety to open sooner? The last one, I’m not so sure on. The first two I think are worthwhile questions that absolutely have an effect on the inflationary environment.
  9. Yes, great idea.. let’s pay no attention to the true crimes going on within our govt, but let’s make it a norm to search out document-related & process crimes to take down political opponents. What could go wrong!? That isn’t dystopian and emblematic of a third world country, at all…
  10. Because I know the types of allegations they are bringing against him. Here’s the thing … I never called for Hillary to get locked up. Nor Obama. Nor have I been here calling for it to happen to Biden. Sometimes the public is better served from the powers that be not prosecuting former presidents/current opponents for the most inconsequential of “crimes”. Do you think our politicians do everything by the letter of the law? If so, please don’t bother responding. What he’s being accused of, can be in some manner leveraged against any number of people, current and former, in high levels of government. This is what you want to die on? This is your law and order? Ok… surveillance state, feds weaponized against citizens, unjust wars to enrich the ruling class, BUT this is your moment. This is where we MUST indict? You will not like where this goes..
  11. I have no idea - guess we’ll find out, but what he’s accused.. they are similar to what plenty of other politicians have been accused to of as well. Trump started no wars and has far less blood on his hands than Bush, Obama or Biden, yet he’s the one they go after… for documents. If you want this to be the threshold for prosecution of political opponents.. Welcome to third world governing.
  12. Or you pick and choose who to enforce the laws against. And that is where we currently stand. You know. I know it. And public sentiment is starting to shift as they wake up to it as well.
  13. Your shtick is all so pathetic. I post here enough for you to know I’m not a big Trump fan, and have firmly been in the DeSantis lane. We hardly have any MAGA folks in this board .. at least ones that are vocal. But we can trust our own eyes, and recognize what’s happening right now.
  14. What does J6 have to do with what I said? You really, really need to get over your Trump obsession, because your side’s frothing at the mouth over him is going to radicalize those on the other side to not just come after you, and your side equivalent to what we see being done, but 10x harder. And I’m here for it. Reap. Sow.
  15. I hope those cheering for this are excited for what this country is now becoming. Oh, do you not think these new precedents will be turned on your side? We’ve reached a point of Balkanization and mutually assured destruction. Enjoy the accelerated downfall portion of the Fall of an Empire.
  16. Meh.. I wanted Hopkins, but taking a visit to the Titans (either due to entertaining their offer OR using their offer to drive up his price elsewhere) tells me he's not exactly serious about winning and/or teams around the league view him as a potential "fall off the cliff" type of player. We'll see what he gets, and where he signs, but if I'm Beane and I can do Floyd for minimal cap gymnastics or Hopkins at say 15M per for multiple years... I'm taking Floyd (In the hypothetical contract comparison I just made up in my head)
  17. Jets honestly make sense, imo. They have cap space right now and wanting insurance for Breece Hall is a valid concern.
  18. The Armenians in LA, Somalians in Minneapolis, and now this … About to get real awkward for Dems. Minorities or LGBTQ+ Libs: Choose your fighter.
  19. "Has", as in past tense, I'd agree. I can't take Cowherd seriously when he talks about our OL as if it's last years OL. It's typical national talking head shtick where they only notice if we're the Chiefs signing a name like Taylor or Bengals signing Orlando Brown. Apparently signing a solid starting OG with upside, drafting one of - if not (the) - best OG in the Draft, along with upgrading the depth is too nuanced for the Cowherd's of the world to pay attention to. This DL, when healthy, has no excuse to not be a Top 5 DL in the league. Von, Floyd, Rousseau, Jones, Oliver, Ford & Phillips is a top tier unit, regardless of whoever else does anything (Settle, Epenesa, Lawson, Boogie). Now, where criticism for the upcoming season is valid, is that we have a ton of money tied up in Von and Floyd. Money that could've gone elsewhere (D-Hop) if we had hit on Boogie and Epenesa... or done something else with the picks.
  20. I have no idea what this tweet means. Are we over by 3-5M. Do we have over 3-5M in cap? Why more moves needed if the latter?
