If you even could read, it would be obvious I think Biden took wrong action on purpose to fuel the war and that was in the context of the discussion that I believe we are respnsible for the inciting act of blowing up the pipeline.

But please continue to explain how government intervention is bad because you're not a raving socialist who has never seen a government program he wasn't full in on.


Where have I ever posted in support of gov handouts or socialism? Here we have you directly proposing gov intervention into the market with the result increasing costs for American consumers!

OK cool. That's irrelevant to the discussion.


Yea...only if you are freaking retarded and fail to remember I am directly responding to your counter point that "Ukraine was invaded" as if that explains the global awareness and solidarity while many others are not even reported.

My exact point was "that's different" and you just proved it by deflection

wow


Yeah, surprising people don't see realize we are being invaded on the Southern border every day?

Italy is a country, not a world-wide influential racist/fascist organization with numerous world leaders participating in it's agenda in an organized manner.

See now you're adding qualifiers.

This was the original question:

quote:

how many people in government regularly attend and are involved in racist and fascist groups?


The Italian government is formed by parties that have been declared fascist.

Hell, the Republican Party has been declared fascist (and racist). Same with every other conservative group. CATO, CPAC, several state governments. The boogeyman is everywhere if you define your threat vaguely enough. This applies to fascism racism, and globalism.

Referencing Hillary fricking Clinton is the definition of deflection, especially where literally nobody in the thread supported her.

I know Powerman and cwill didn't.

We always end up outside of the argument and with the baseless, “you’re a socialist who voted for who I don’t like!”

Why are you so averse to this reasoning?

It's completely irrational.

quote:

I mean if Putin colonized Mexico DC would would go DEFCOM 11

But that's not a threat because of our long history of international relations and trade. That's why the comparison was always stupid.

And NATO isn't a "colony" It's a mutual defense pact. If Putin agreed to trade deals with Mexico, we wouldn't care. In fact, they have had them, for decades, and it was never discussed on this board b/c nobody gives a shite.

quote:

NATO expansion eastward and threatening Ukraine to become a member state is tantamount to Russia colonizing South America

Holy emotional thinking. No it's not.

No I'm not. You equated "racist and fascist" groups with the WEF in a "both sides" claim.

quote:

So you're going with the WEF is just an idea?

You're comparing falsely labeled organizations with organization with overt stated agenas and ideologies. You're doing an excellent job undermining your "both sides" argument, tho.

Why would anyone familiar with the Monroe Doctrine ever think its wrong for anyone else to use a similar approach

Not really comparable. Ukraine wants to legitimately move into Europe. It's within the EU sphere of influence, not Russia.

The Monroe Doctrine also predates real international relations. It's not applicable under the liberal world order post-Cold War.

The Monroe Doctrine officially died when Cuba became Communist, also. That was 80 years ago. It's not a relevant citation in any way, shape, or form.

Yeah, prices have been rock solid since we started pumping Ukraine full of cash. Those markets aren't connected.

Well you're also wrong. International invasion is pretty rare. The US did it in Iraq 20 years ago. Russia did it in Georgia in...2012? Ukraine in 2014, too.

Lots of civil wars and proxy wars, but few legitimate international invasions. That's why this was so shocking.

If someone in February says they can burn your house to the ground if they want to, and in September your house burns to the ground, where do you start your investigation?

Um, yes, exactly.

Leftists label their boogeymen as existential threats the same as Trumpkins. That was literally my point.

Mr. Kissinger courted controversy earlier this year by suggesting that incautious policies on the part of the U.S. and NATO may have touched off the crisis in Ukraine. He sees no choice but to take Vladimir Putin’s stated security concerns seriously and believes that it was a mistake for NATO to signal to Ukraine that it might eventually join the alliance: “I thought that Poland—all the traditional Western countries that have been part of Western history—were logical members of NATO,” he says. But Ukraine, in his view, is a collection of territories once appended to Russia, which Russians see as their own, even though “some Ukrainians” do not. Stability would be better served by its acting as a buffer between Russia and the West: “I was in favor of the full independence of Ukraine, but I thought its best role was something like Finland.”


That crazy old man...
