And there it is, everything is NATOs fault. If only we gave everything to Russia, the world would be saved.

Tell me, why are there no more Tatars in Crimea?

So “if Europe caves to the bully, joins the side that is actively supporting its enemy that invaded a sovereign country, maybe China will see a benefit and do something countrary to their interest and work towards peace in Ukraine”. Have you even thought how your post sounds? If it is beneficial to keep the war in Ukraine going, why would they “switch sides”? The US would still be “bogged down” in Ukraine even if the EU started better relations with China. So either we would totally need to cut off Ukraine (in which case Russia wins) or China would magically do something that’s completely stupid from their POV.

Kewl. If only there wasn’t a country that invaded another country on our borders, that openly talks about invading even more, fucking about with our utilities and using spies, the internet and sabotage to fuck around even more.

A comfy life needs to be secured with military might, like it or not. Otherwise you get assholes in shitholes trying to forcefully take it from you. Rome knew that, the US knows that, the EU knows this (otherwise it wouldn’t exist - since it is made to increase bargaining power and contains mutual defense clauses).

So until Russia stops being a militaristic shithole that invades its neighbors and starts building those schools, power plants, hospitals and highways, we need to spend taxes on military. And yes, Russia is a threat - Georgia shown us, 2014 has shown us, 2022 has shown us.

You keep trying to find a justification for wishing someone death and jumping through multiple hoops to explain it to convince yourself you are justified. There is no war without hate.

A brethylizer test for alcohol isn’t “objective” either and all it does is create cause to test your blood.

They’re on it because it is sweet and the stand is outdoors.

My doctor told me that I can skip weekends if I feel like I need to mellow out and the medication prevents that. I take the same thing as OP does.

Edit: ask your doctor tho, not medical advice obviously

I have never been in that situation so I don’t know. Also it is irrellevant to what we are talking about.

You are strawmanning. I never said anything about tone policing, or telling victims to like their oppressors. We are talking about wishing death on someone and about hatred.

How is it different in any way? Do you think that Netanyahu dying somehow ends the war in Gaza? Saves the Palestinian people?

Wishing someone dead comes from hatred. Hatred for their actions, for who they are. Netanyahu and Israel can be stopped. He can be put in jail. And I am saying this as a person who is sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, who supports them.

Hatred is hatred and it breeds more hatred.

We are talking about wishing death to someone, not you caring when someone dies.

You are doing the exact same thing that I talked about. Trying to justify to yourself that you are still “good” but still wishing death, hating.

There is always a way to stop the harm that someone is causing without killing them. There is no difference to me. You want someone dead, you are just as “good” as they are, wanting you dead.

And the “wish them to die without hating them” is complete bullshit. Otherwise you wouldn’t want them to die.

You are just proving my point.

Is there a difference? Because there isn’t to me. Wishing death upon anyone makes you a bad person who stoops to the level of someone wishing it to you.

Yup, plenty of people celebrate death or wish it upon people and then start getting defensive when called out on it. Human nature to be a cruel asshole and manage to convince yourself that you aren’t.

… No? That is not how a bastard works. She married into the royal family but had a kid before. A bastard would be her having an affair and giving birth to a kid while married into the family already. Or the prince fathering a kid with someone else other than the wife. This is just “a kid from a previous marriage / relationship”.

The comic, Salvatore links it in the description and credits the author

Russia takes over and genocides the population living there. So does Israel.

It was never mandatory, it was a suggestion.

And no heat losses from slapping the chicken either

You should give it a try, it is some of the weirdest and coolest tech in controllers. It’s the only one I use for gaming, dropped every other for it. The gyro aiming thing is such a weird yet natural concept it’s just funny nobody thought of it before them. Lots of settings to go through before it works well for a specific game. I set it up for CSGO and was able to play at like 80% of my usual skill (LEM at the time), with spray control being amazing on it compared to mouse. Honestly, if I had it when I was learning to play FPS when I was young, I’d probably be better on it than kb+m

Nothing, one was simply trendy and OP doesn’t know how movements work so they just lumped it together
