Canada and Greenland, what did they do wrong to you?
May 16, 2022 at 12:51
Here comes the lecturer on ad hominems by the guy who constantly tries to bully others and add nothing but his egocentric bloatedness to the discussio...
May 16, 2022 at 12:48
Yes We weren't talking about the geopolitical implications in the sense you mean. I was talking about the Swedish and Finnish situation of joining Nat...
May 16, 2022 at 12:45
If someone invades Russia, that's a valid existential risk for them, but no one is invading them. If they use the existential risk as a propaganda lie...
May 16, 2022 at 12:40
Neutrality or non-alliance won't hold against nuclear annihilation either. You can only plan a military defense against common warfare and that is wha...
May 16, 2022 at 11:26
Or just have other sources for the information than online ideological bloggers. Outside of that, I don't think someone in Australia would have a clea...
May 16, 2022 at 11:23
Even if we weren't part of Nato a nuclear war would annihilate us anyway. We're surrounded by nations that are targets for nuclear strikes, a strike o...
May 16, 2022 at 11:17
Were you equally pathetic at bullying people in school? Did they laugh behind your back at those attempts? :lol: If you're not adding anything just fu...
May 16, 2022 at 10:27
Why would we let Russia ever get to the point of trying? Ukraine might have beaten Russia, but at what cost for the Ukrainians getting systematically ...
May 16, 2022 at 10:24
You can criticize anything you want, but you add very little to anything in here other than just being an annoying fucker from down under commenting o...
May 16, 2022 at 10:13
No, I did not. But you can believe whatever the fuck you want from your armchair. Now they won't. Without Nato perhaps as a flank position for missile...
May 16, 2022 at 10:05
Don't know what @"ssu" would strategize, but as a swede what I see Finland excelling at is being prepared for conflict. They have massive and well car...
May 16, 2022 at 09:26
They will probably do something to show aggression in some way before the membership is finalized. Something that won't trigger any alliance response,...
May 16, 2022 at 00:17
For me and @"ssu" it's a big thing at the moment since we've just got word from the Swedish government that we're applying for Nato. This means that i...
May 15, 2022 at 19:54
The tensions and internal battles during the collapse of the Soviet Union was close to starting a civil war. If there's a collapse of Russia happening...
May 13, 2022 at 15:14
And this is why I think he's a delusional despot with stupid minions under him. To think that the world, with all the alliances it has from WWII and f...
May 12, 2022 at 22:11
Because they were mostly educated people. Indoctrinated, but educated and intelligent as to how to handle that collapse and they did it in a group, no...
May 12, 2022 at 15:43
Your argument for "rightful owners" of a piece of geographical land is just plain stupid. It's an argument that can be stretched to such extreme lengt...
May 12, 2022 at 15:22
It's so much easier to misunderstand and keep your narrative than to understand and challenge yourself. It's a bias that most people do and it's what ...
May 12, 2022 at 12:29
It will also stretch the Russian army thin, they will put more of their GDP into military development, which in turn will strain society. The positive...
May 12, 2022 at 10:55
I suspect nothing since we know Russia lies through their teeth and uses propaganda and information as tools of war. The medium is the message. It's n...
May 12, 2022 at 10:19
I'm not Dawkins and I'm saying there's no purpose in that either. It's part of the web of life that evolved by probability. There's no more purpose to...
May 12, 2022 at 09:59
What is "BS" is how you presume that belief or gods are required for feeling solace. If all you ever knew were those answers, then it becomes almost i...
May 12, 2022 at 08:59
What Russia says, threatens, and put in propaganda is not the same as what they actually do. Just like they said they wouldn't invade Ukraine for mont...
May 11, 2022 at 17:37
I didn't think your inability to understand what the fuck is being said could be so bad. Instead, you keep going with the loaded question fallacies ju...
May 11, 2022 at 17:30
That is not a counter-argument. I could say the same to you, you ignore what Russia has done in Ukraine and shift focus away from it instead. This is ...
May 11, 2022 at 16:53
Rationality, logic, science, and moral philosophy are four areas as a base. Love is a concept that's too flimsy as a factor to determine how to live. ...
May 11, 2022 at 16:00
Why would love be something exclusive to religion?
May 11, 2022 at 15:22
I think you give Christianity too much credit. I'd say any religion is a root cause for the destructive. Nietzsche wasn't the root of Nazism, it was h...
May 11, 2022 at 15:03
The Nazis were uneducated fuckers who picked and chose whatever they felt was cool looking. Like teenagers scrambling together some metal band trying ...
May 11, 2022 at 14:37
One says that there's no conclusive evidence for neither positive nor negative, the other that there's evidence for the positive. I'd say those are co...
May 11, 2022 at 14:33
Yes, I've seen it. It's a good representation of the subjective view of the culture, but it's inaccurate from many historical perspectives. It also ta...
May 11, 2022 at 14:23
Yes, but what I mean is that most people in Britain today who's been pretty much native since those days have relatives from over here, so that's the ...
May 11, 2022 at 14:10
Except we pretty much ruled over Great Britain back in those days so we have more agency than them it seems, we formed them.
May 11, 2022 at 14:00
Yes, since the Russian apologists here seem to be totally ignorant of the democratic factor within Nato and the level of diplomatic power that Sweden ...
May 11, 2022 at 13:54
Because of the intention of the act. If the intention by the US was to directly kill and starve children that is totally different from carpet bombing...
May 11, 2022 at 13:52
That's not what you said though I don't disagree with there being a positive effect, that's my point, the positive effect has been shown. I'm expandin...
May 11, 2022 at 13:27
Like the Aukus partnership. Why are they poking the Chinese dragon? :shade:
May 11, 2022 at 12:29
Yes, we should remember that if ever China or North Korea starts waging war in the pacific. Then we'll see just how moral the rhetoric is from our sid...
May 11, 2022 at 12:27
Exactly. You can mention that there's a nice restaurant in Berlin and people in here start arguing that it depends on if it's on the west or east side...
May 11, 2022 at 12:16
Exactly... why do you think getting into a security alliance is important to be done now and not after Russia rebuilt its military capability? Even if...
May 11, 2022 at 12:02
What should we do then? In this black and white world of yours, what action should we take to guarantee our security?
May 11, 2022 at 11:51
I'm not advocating anything other than our right to defend our nations. You argue we have no such right.
May 11, 2022 at 11:48
I'm just putting myself on the level of this cesspool thread since that's the only language you people seem to understand. The one where you call us S...
May 11, 2022 at 11:47
You know you speak of two nations and their people right now? Independent nations who seek security for themselves. So you call us morons for doing so...
May 11, 2022 at 11:43
Wow, and I'm being called simplistic and black and white. Seriously. Shit, you really do know nothing about our situation. And you really do not under...
May 11, 2022 at 11:38
Or, you can just respect Finland and Sweden's will to seek security against Russia. This is the problem with you people, you don't know shit about us ...
May 11, 2022 at 11:35
And you ignore the reasons Finland and Sweden seek security in Nato.
May 11, 2022 at 11:33
I don't give a fuck about the US, I'm talking about what Russia is doing to us and what we seek security against. This constant "but the US" kind of a...
May 11, 2022 at 11:31
You can't seem to understand what's compared here. Bombings should be criticized, everything the US did should be criticized, but it's not comparable ...
