This should be a huge takeaway.

In our current non-physical money world, you could be cut off from everything on someone’s whim.

That shite is insane and terrifying.

That is a common misconception. Memeing is hereditary.

You don’t find that concept incredibly concerning?

They didn’t just place sanctions against a country, the world effectively blocked that entire country’s citizens from being able to access their finances.

That is insane.

They think you and I are paranoid, Scruffy. Maybe we are, but I think justifiably so. The cutting off of Visa, Mastercard, Google Pay, and Apple Pay should scare the shite out of all of you. What do you think our government is capable of? I’m sorry, these are dark times, and to quote another person dismissed lunatic but was right at the end:

Ukraine's sovereignty is most definitely not inconsequential to America. A stable Europe greatly benefits us and everyone else in the world. We should be supplying Ukraine with equipment and money.



NATO provides Europe with defense stability as it is. Ukraine is not a NATO member. Ukraine falling moves Russia to NATOs border. Unless you believe Russia will directly attack NATO and start WWIII, Ukraine’s sovereignty is inconsequential to America.

In fact, Ukraine falling would increase economic benefits to us from Europe as they are clearly going to shift away from Russian energy in some capacity and will now shift further away from Russian defense industry and right into our own. American energy and defense productions and technology benefit from Ukraine falling by increased fear and defensive maneuvers by Europe. What do you think the Eastern European Migs will be replaced with that were donated? Where do you think Europe will look for natural gas to replace any movements away from Russian LNG?

He once “debated” me that California would turn red. I asked how and he brought up anecdotal evidence. That’s all I got.

Paranoid?

Like how this could never happen here?

Canada tried this only a few weeks ago.



Canada must be one of those 3rd world shitholes or something.

The implications of Europe at war are not good for America. Not economically and not militarily. I’d rather we didn’t spend any money on it but the implications are just bad.

The reason you two are getting blowback on that is because it's a left wingers wet dream. As long as it's being done to someone else and not them that is

Yes.

They “suspended operations in Russia”.

This isn’t some selective, individual basis.

This is going to end up with the same long term ramifications as the fricking Patriot Act.

Ok, this is really really ducking bizarre, but are there any reports of foo fighters or unexplained lights, UAF, or anything like that in Ukraine?
Hearing some really weird shite now.
