Anyone care to fill me in on the reason for all this WW3 talk? I haven’t been keeping up on it.

Better yet, point me to a good YouTube video that explains what’s going on.

Russia wants Ukraine because it used to belong to the USSR before that broke up

And apparently there are some Ukrainians loyal to Russia who want Russia to take over, but they are a minority. The rest of the country does not

And apparently Ukraine is our ally because they helped make Hunter Biden a rich man or something, so we are obligated to defend their sovereignty

Glad we have Biden in there to guide us through such precarious times.

biden flubbed answering a question and accidentally told them to go ahead and start moving in: "it depends on what it does. It's one thing if it's a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do."

lol

I was just watching that rocky clip and thinking, damn man If i was a russian, I'd be like f yea lets get the military out there and cold war this shit lets go go go!

They've been complete cucks compared to the respect we gave them during the cold war.

We made movies where we thought they had computers and science to make the best boxer in Rockey III now you watch anything about a Russians it's about drunk idiots or some dudes with AK's getting into a fight at an intersection.

If I had to literally chose between going to war or continuing to be Russia the way its been, Id chose going to war. F it.

Better than drinking piss out of a hookers shoe for some trash streamer.

The Republican position seems to be peace in our time.

I got in trouble in middle school because we had to do these daily journal entrys and I decided I wasn’t going to take any of them seriously

One was how you would solve a world issue and we had a list of them on the board, we could pick. I chose war and my entry was about the Peacemaker robot. I described it having the highest tech weaponry on the planet, nukes and missles and all that jazz

When two countries started a war, the Peacemaker would come in and completely annihilate both of them. After 1 or 2 times doing that, all wars would end

Teacher was not happy with my entry. She didn’t give a zero though but I didn’t get an A on that one

Now I’m finding out there’s a “peacekeeper” superhero on tv or in movies who apparently has the same mantra

I'm going to give people who are "pro-war" a chance to explain why Americans should die for the Ukraine.

Ok go:

Haha sorry I'm just kidding, I don't need a rehash of neocon talking points. Boy, people who are past fighting age are sure eager to send American boys to get killed in the mud holding the Dnepr river line against the 23rd Shock Army.

I literally have not heard one credible reason why we should give two shits about the Ukraine, their internal struggles or problems with Russia. "Stopping Russia" sounds like something a grade-schooler would say so we can ignore that. This is all made up and part of the "Great Game" that old powerful people play to pass the time before their upcoming demise, sending the younger generation to the meatgrinder.

I would like to point out that World War 1 happened because of a complex system of treaties that forced it's participants to escalate and move troops around until the momentum was unstoppable. And it happened because of Serbia, a two-bit country no one gives a shit about now and is full of losers.

We are now heading for a large European war because of a complex system of treaties that forces it's participants to escalate and move troops around until the momentum is unstoppable. And it's all happening because of the Ukraine, a two-bit country no one gave a shit about before is also full of losers.

I think you are referring to Article 5 and are wrong. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
