If the United States didn't exist when the Soviets were around, we'd have been living in one giant North Korea. That's why more needs to be done with the CCP, which is rapidly advancing their military and is already the preeminent industrial power.
Jamal Khashoggi is just one man. Tragedy it may be, but insignificant in the larger context.
- consumer451 3y agoYour ideology will murder us all, each one at a time, until none of us are left. There is an alternative, and that is that we will win, as we always do. When a simple, predictable man like Putin, or Xi, make themselves emperor for life, they prove the fragility of their system. Their system cannot survive beyond them. It is the final call. Just as it was in Germany, France, Portugal, Spain... all of the imperial powers had to lose their final war. Soon, you will lose yours. Finally your people will become "Western," aka peaceful. All it takes is losing the final imperial ambition. I welcome you to the future. My family has lived through these idiotic ambitions for many generations. This is why I am still here, speaking to you. We will live through it again, until we are all at peace. Cheers.
- jeswin 3y ago> Their system cannot survive beyond them. I am old enough to remember the cold war times. The Soviet Union disintegrated because they never built an economy. Until Gorbachev, the communists did maintain their grip. If they had an economy like China has, the Soviet Union might have still been around. Also Xi is not Putin, and the CCP (and generally Communist Parties) are not United Russia. > There is an alternative, and that is that we will win, as we always do. Sure. But maintain the highest level of deterrence.
- consumer451 3y agoThe deterrence is that I am alive. Neither the Nazis, nor the their Soviet allies could destroy my family. [0] They could not destroy Europe as much as they tried. We are still here. Ukraine, is a rising democracy and is still here. Please my brother, just as each European country had to lose their empires, to finally win our own independence from the specter of imperialist thought. So must you. The Russian people deserve this more than anyone. It's about effing time my brother. Play this loud my friend!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d1AmMt6A9s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d1AmMt6A9s [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pact https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pac...
- jeswin 3y ago> Ukraine, is a rising democracy and is still here. Man! At what cost? Someone who used to work with me with sent me a pic - writing code from a bomb shelter. Add: > Neither the Nazis, nor the their Soviet allies could destroy my family. They may not have destroyed yours, but they did destroy millions of other families.
- consumer451 3y agoWe have lived through hundreds of years of this murder. We do not want to live through this again. This is the end. This is the end, and finally Russian people will prosper. Take the "L," It's actually a win. Just like Germans did after "losing." Just like Spanish did after "losing." Just like Italy did after "losing." Just like Portugal did after "losing" their empire. Then we became boring European assholes and we get a little per captia rich and all got along. Fine, have a different alphabet, have orthodox, the Greeks are part of Europe and they have this. Why can't Moscow just stop killing us??? And they kill Russians more than anyone!!! Please, just stop! Fuck! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqohApD6Ng8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqohApD6Ng8
- jeswin 3y ago> Your ideology will murder us all, each one at a time, until none of us are left. I am curious, what do you think my ideology is? I just wanted to understand how I came across.
