More than 30 nations will participate in Paris planning talks on a security force for Ukraine

  • They could, but what do they think will happen then?

  • Then you have more demand than supply because there is not enough coffee for everybody. This leads to people queueing and some people leaving without coffee.

  • What do you mean? There are globally less coffee beans available. Or do you mean the 30%? That's just an arbitrary number, as I tried to make clear by writing "Let's say ...".

  • You believe that the accusation then and now were true and that everybody knew but nobody in the position of power prevented the takeover?

    Why is the focus on Trump then and not everybody else?

    To me it's easier to believe that this is drama to distract from changes that are in a way necessary but unpopular.

  • How about this explanation:

    There is a reduced supply of coffee beans. Let's say 30%. This requires that 30% of customers have to be priced out of the market.

    If the coffee shop owners only increase the price by several cents then the demand stays the same. They have to fight for coffee beans which drives up their costs step by step.

    However, if they increase the price in advance, and far more than necessary right from the start, then the reduced demand matches the available supply and the value of the coffee beans roughly remains the same which allows them to profit from most of the price hike.

  • deter another large-scale Russian offensive after any ceasefire

    Russia is fighting to prevent NATO troops in Ukrain. Am I mistaken or does this bind Russia to fight until they either collapse or conquer all of Ukrain?

  • If Trump is a Russian asset, how was he allowed to run for his first term? Various agencies must have known.

    • You have a time machine with a single round trip. You hate everyone. And you are lazy. What is the least you can do to completely screw over the world with your one trip through time?

  • Life will find a way. Going back can be used to create nuclear winter but even then, life will go on.

    To completely screw over the world, I would go into the future and acquire the source code for a general AI.

    Then the world can be locked down and robots can be built to abuse every human and sentinent being individually, for a very long time.

  • What's the line of reason? They voted according to their core values and since they have to pay for the implementation, they should change their values or should have voted solely by self interest?

    Is the position of 'the left' that it is right to vote in self interest and not for the common good?

    • What is the end game?

    Jump

  • As a map some days ago showed, Canada, Greenland, Panama, probably Israel, maybe even Ukrain - it's all about shipping lanes.

    All that effort makes sense if there is the believe that global trade will increase and that the USA will still be relevant when the center of the global population is in Asia.

    So extinction is not the goal but could be an accepted risk.
