It’s quite frustrating to argue with people who support an authoritarian, violent dictator who bombs people without caring about human life. These people act like propagandists. Personally i just put them on ignore.
-
Almost everybody in Europe was invaded and many in Asia.
-
I mean they destroyed freedom and democracy in Hong Kong which is quite sad. Hong Kong used to be really cool 😎
-
Putin seems like a one man party. While in China it’s the CCP. Although in some ways especially before the war i think Russia was a little less restrictive than China.
-
Well maybe. If he really loved it he would have lifted more Russians out of poverty probably.
-
I mean i would also say Hitler loved Germany (in his own twisted way). Even if he ended up destroying it.
-
I think the big difference is that Trump does things mostly for himself. While Putin does things mostly for Russia (or his vision of Russia). And Trump is an attention whore while Putin isn’t really. Trump isn’t really ideological while Putin is. That’s just how it comes across here.

Funny thing is NATO existed as a deterrent against Russia/Soviet for 75 years. It was basically started by the US. Article 5 was only used once when the US asked for help after 9/11 As soon as Russia starts to test Europe after 75 years. America is like "bye guys we’re out you’re on your own“

I think that’s what he wants, that people talk about him. Better just to ignore.

I do agree that empathy can be self destructive. Like with Sweden. Or i‘ve seen in my own surroundings examples where the left is too „empathetic“ or forgiving to certain groups of people because of their ideology. Sometimes you do have to be tough and have certain rules. Like „no violence“ for example. -
It’s quite gaslighty I mean i do think the West and especially the US made many arrogant errors and mistakes or decisions. Like Iraq and so on. But well we can’t turn back time.

Maybe he has something on him. Like dirt or whatever. I was just listening to an author who was with Trump, Bannon 2018 in Helsinki when there was a Trump Putin meeting. And he said Bannon was just wondering "what the hell does Putin have on Trump"

So for example in Europe. Europe basically has to get its ish together and become stronger and more self reliant. Which i hope means its own tech companies (maybe together with Japan, India) and so on In the US the corruption is really now there for everyone to see. So i think however this administration ends. People will seek for more honesty at some point. The system (wall street, military industrial complexes, lobbies, Israel, regime changes) was getting sick so maybe this is the needed reset. Remember when someone said if Aliens attacked the world the world would stop most infighting? Maybe Trump can be that orange alien.

When asked how Fascism starts, Bertrand Russell once said: "First, they fascinate the fools. Then, they muzzle the intelligent." -

Some insights about Trump -
I think i will try to make this yogurt soon-ish It’s with a specific bacteria strain. I actually did make yogurt like a decade ago but it never really helped. And i am very sensitive to certain probiotics. I made a thread a while ago about how some probiotic supplements cause depression/fatigue/inflammation for me.

You are an interesting subject to study how easily people fall for Propaganda.
-
Where is the source that he said that? Also stop the Zelensky is a dictator or you should be banned for propaganda/misinformation.
-
Yea but then it’s out of my sight 🦭 It‘s too annoying to always have the same arguments.
-
So?
-
You‘re posting videos of Russian stooges and propaganda again. I will put you on the infamous ignore list. Bye AION
