Not from "what" but from "where" is the question. If there was no Western opposition to the attack, there wouldn't be no isolation. The fact that Russia has received some sympathy shows how important is to express t

Well, they are evil, we just can't ignore that. If calling to murder millions of people is commonly tolerated public discourse then what else are they?

Nothing like this has been granted to Russia. It was a time limited lease, like HK from China. Russia also unilaterally broke these agreements in 2014.

And from where does this isolation come from? I think you are contradicting a little with yourself here.

Yes, Russia is not expanding, it's defending it's borders. I'm well familiar with the endless bullshit that is coming from Russia including this one.

Well, Russia is an evil empire trying to expand its borders to its former glory. If you haven't understood this by now then it's not meaningful to continue this discussion with you.

I think you completely misinterpret the situation with Russia and China. Russia and China have the objectives of their own. For Russia it is to expand their empire that in their own mind rightfully belongs to them. They didn't attack U

BMW had a rotary control button in every car. Now the idiots have removed it from at least two models (X1 and Active Tourer). My bet is that they will put it back eventually, but the person who made this decision should be shot.

The definition of proxy war is quite specific. It requires that a third party is waging war at the instigation or on behalf of us. This is not true. Russia attacked Ukraine and Ukraine is defending itself on its own. We only provide necessa

Saying that we are forcing Putin to do anything is like saying that resisting to rape is forcing rapist to used more violence. The rapist already had a plan. There is actually a joke going on about all these "peace initiatives". T

We are not forcing Putin into anything. He has already long time ago made up his mind that US and the West will become his enemy. The only way we actually can win him over is by beating him decisively and fast. Yes, that is the paradox of R

He didn't claim that it is irrelevant, he said that it can be very small. This is clearly wrong based on empirical evidence that can be quantified based on hours of exposure to one or another language. It is enough to show a single cou

Chomsky is a fool and this article demonstrates it clearly. First we don't really know how the mind works and therefore we really have no idea if the language models are path toward AGI or not. He doesn't have an idea how a child
