I remember when people used to complain about that. Now those same people are jumping up and down for billions “for Ukraine”, not knowing they’re the same thing.

- yakshaving_jgt 2y agoThat was my suspicion, but I at least wanted to hear it from the horse’s mouth, and I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt first.
- kelipso 2y agoLol, maybe go offline for a bit because you are taking your online self a bit too seriously.
- SV_BubbleTime 2y agoRight? I’m not going to try and explain that Ukraine funding is actually just a US domestic economic stimulus and kickback scam incentive because if they can’t see it, they aren’t going to listen to me about it - But lol, these guys are so defensive and pseudo intellectual about it.
- yakshaving_jgt 2y agoYou shouldn't try to explain anything, because your position on this is nonsensical. And if "they" aren't going to listen to you about it, then good. You aren't worth listening to anyway.
