  • Peace in Ukraine starts with Russia retreating to their own country; and ,no, Crimea is not Russia.

  • Oh, Mellonhead is definitely a fascist, I'm just pointing out that you get the same kinda of oppression at the other end of the lef-right spectrum, too.

  • He really wasn't, though.

    All fascists are authoritarians, not all authoritarians are fascist.

  • The USSR would also persecute people for criticizing the Soviet state or its leaders, but they weren't fascist. Authoritarianism is something people on the left and right both get up to.

  • Honestly, you seem like you're having trouble being calm. I'm sorry if I played any part in making you feel that way, I didn't mean to upset you or hurt your feelings. It's ok if we don't agree.

  • Your implied point was that there wasn't any innovation, but there was, by your own admission above.

    Don't shift the goalposts by latching onto an analogy I made. The fact is that the technology has progressed quite quickly over the timespan represented in those pictures, and that fact underscores what's wrong with the post you were responding to - it wasn't a handful of rich folk that did it, it was the work of hundreds of thousands of people around the world. You had a much better point to make than the one you did.

  • No, they're in Parliament, where they can do real damage.

  • No, that's a declaration of Special Military Operation, which is completely and entirely different in an unclear way. No further questions.

  • Unfortunately, the Tories are by far the most destructive right wing terror group in the UK, and nobody seems to be able stop them at the moment. Maybe at the very end of 2024 when they can't hold off elections any further.

  • That's kind of a dumb way to make the point. Innovation isn't necessarily apparent in a photo with no context or information. A bronze sword and a steel sword still both look like swords, but there a huge technological difference between them.

  • The article at the link has changed since it was posted. At first it was just some eyewitness accounts and much more was known.

    I still content it was just a prank. Bro.

  • Man, I'm so glad this global warming thing is leftist propaganda or I'd really be freaking out right now.

  • what if we kissed under the thousands of preformed tungsten fragments?

    😳👉 👈

  • It’s weird to think someone would only disagree with you if they were trying to drum up fake support in support of a company.

  • The unnamed witness, who was part of a tour group at the time, says the man "gave out a loud 'ha ha ha'" before he ran in between some buildings in the direction of the North Korean border.

    "I thought it was a bad joke at first, but when he didn't come back, I realised it wasn't a joke, and then everybody reacted and things got crazy."

    Sound like it was just a prank, bro.

  • That would've entailed a full on war with China. Which some people - most notably MacArthur - were ok with. I think his plan involved nuking as much of the PLA as possible.

    Personally, I think we should've done some version of Operation Unthinkable and eliminated the USSR. Alas.
