  • I was originally pointing out that if NATO can supply Ukraine than North Korea can supply Russia. Nothing anyone can do about it but complain to deaf ears.

  • No. I'm equating Russia ignoring the UN Security Counsel with NATO ignoring the UN Security Counsel. And resorting to name calling just means you have nothing to use in this conversation.

  • I find it funny that you're using the UN Security Counsel as some sort of authority. Could you tell me who are the 5 permanent members of that security counsel? Those resolutions are only as legal as the they are enforceable. Honestly if North Korea wants to supply weapons to Russia and Russia accepts then who can stop them? No other country or entity has any authority of either. The best you can do is sanctions or war. But to give another example of how the UN has no power unless granted power; Everyone seems to forget that NATO, a defense alliance, attacked a sovereign European nation.

    NATO countries attempted to gain authorisation from the UN Security Council for military action, but were opposed by China and Russia, who indicated that they would veto such a measure. As a result, NATO launched its campaign without the UN's approval, stating that it was a humanitarian intervention. The UN Charter prohibits the use of force except in the case of a decision by the Security Council under Chapter VII, or self-defence against an armed attack – neither of which were present in this case.

    -- From Wikipedia.

    So here we have NATO itself ignoring the UN Security Counsel.

  • I didn't say either was right or wrong I just said that it was fair. The way you feel about a conflict doesn't change how either side fight. And your historical examples are only relevant because we were on the winning side so of course we fell it was the right thing to do. But during that time period the American public was very against getting involved with another war in Europe after WW1. FDR was looking for every way possible to convince the American public to support the Allies but during that time period we were very isolationist.

    So to answer your question, No Sweden should not have sent weapons to the Germans in 1941. Not because the US sent weapons to the UK but because Sweden was neutral by their own policy.

  • Well they are using NATO weapons against Russia so alls fair.

  • Do people who are convicted of stuff then acquitted on technicalities really think that the public just forget all their past crimes because a piece of paper says “sorry – they were prosecuted one day too late”?

    Most people have their own lives to worry about. Sure some people will cut him off but most don't care. That's way too much effort for a stranger.

  • Everyone has a right to fairness under the law and it's their lawyer's job to ensure that. The lawyers who protect the rights of the people who disgust you are the same lawyers who protect the rights of the people you sympathize with.

  • lmao! Man that's hilarious!

    "We have a memory leak that could lead to a security issue.We should do something about it."

    "I made a process that periodically kills those tasks. No one will notice the problem now."

    The unicorn killer will have a memory leak as well. 💀

  • Could you elaborate? I use Gitlab bit i'm not a security expert.

  • I think we should use AI to decifer their language and send them messages saying, "Chill bro! I'm just passing through." We'll probably get a response going something like, "You in the wrong neighborhood boy!"

  • They should have been going low from the beginning. Nice guys finish last.

  • Why are the bears depressed?

    Edit: OK after reading the article it mentioned a Florida bill that allows people to shoot bears they perceive as a threat to their person, pets, of dwelling and the Republican sponsor of the bill wrote it because of bears high on crack. WTF...

  • I’m a good person because I will do the bare minimum of harm reduction necessary to keep vulnerable people safe every 2 or so years.

    You’re a bad person because you won’t.

    Oh so I'm a bad person because I won't vote the way YOU want? That's all you got? You want me to be the bad guy? Say hello to the bad guy.

  • And just what exactly is "the wrong way"? I bet that "wrong way" is if things don't go the way YOU want. Do you think I care about what you want? I'll vote for who and what I want not what you want.

  • Still not gonna vote for who you want.

    I was pretty clear...

  • I thought I was clear when I said I won't vote for that prosecutor and I won't vote for Trump.

  • This is how I know you're full of shit. You think you know where my interest are when I never said what they were. And you're using the same old tactic of arguing that "voting third party is the same as voting for the other party". No it isn't. If I wanted to vote for the other party then I would. You seriously came out here talking about some "the party most aligned with your interests" when you have no fucking clue what my interests are. You are all full of shit.

  • I vote for what's in my best interest not yours, you're team, or whatever YOU say I should care about. And who said anything about perfection? Now you're just making shit up and being angry about the shit you just made up. Time for you to accept that things just won't go your way.

  • Still not gonna vote for who you want.

  • I know about Project 2025. I never said I was voting for Trump. But I'm not gonna play along with this "you only have two choices so vote for the lesser evil" shit. The democrats did this to themselves and they should pay the price. They keep fucking up because of all the old people who refuse to give up power and because they think they can play the moral high ground and win.

    RBG should have retired when Obama was president so he can appoint another liberal but she died when Trump was president think she was stubborn enough to hold off death. Obama should have appointed another judge when Scalia died but tried to be morally right and allow the next president to choose. Thinking it would be an easy win for Hilary he made a big gamble and lost. Feinstein stayed in office until her death at 90. Fuckin 90! Pelosi is 84 and still in office. These fossils need to get the fuck out of the way and let the people who actually have to live in this reality set the policies.

    Why the hell should I reward the people who were the ones to fuck up this country. And yes I know both sides did their part. I see these two parties as the same and voting for either one of them is repeating the cycle.
