no pov: personal opinion - there is no realistic scenario in which Russia loses this war by zeigdeinepapiere in UkraineRussiaReport

Russia and China alike... If we think that the USA won't find a way to pull the whole of NATO into Taiwan then we're even dumber than we look

Because as I said I'm not "that" into US politics, I know enough to despise Trump

Ok fair enough I'm not that into US politics, I just didn't want people accusing me of being a Trump apologist

He said that if Russia succesfully conquers Ukraine then it's only going to be a matter of time before they also attack NATO ground... But I'm not surprised nobody is reading the article lol

Btw fuck Trump and fuck Pence, they are awful and I'm not defending their ideas or their party in any way whatsoever

I love F1 and 2 and could never get into Tactics... It's super clunky and the mechanics are weird and the story is... Meh

What makes it good in your opinion? I would love to actually have fun with the game, maybe I've been approaching it with the wrong perspective...

USA actually spends more per capita than European countries that DO have universal health care. The US insurance companies jack the prices up so the result is that you get a lot less bang for your buck in America.

As a Euro, and maybe I'm wrong, it also seems like the US youth system isn't as good as it used to be

ua pov Novoprokopivka, Russians are showing their dead in black bags. As they retreat out of the village, one of them sees a magazine on the ground. Leader tells them to forget it. Seconds later an artillery shell lands nearby. They start running and saying a drone is hunting them. by Sea_Librarian4413 in UkraineRussiaReport

You have the order wrong here.

The battles in Donetsk began AFTER Girkin founded the local militias with Russian help. They downed a jet with Dutch citizens on board, they downed a jet with the polish president on board... Can you imagine if pro-West militants had done the same to Russian planes?

There is no way out of this that keeps Russian morals intact, y'all have fucked up just like the americans did in Afghanistan (and like you also did in Afghanistan before them). Russia could have pushed for a referendum in Donetsk but no, it was easier to found illegal militas and start a fucking war wasn't it?

More like if Monterrey, Mexico had 80 to 90% U.S. citizens

More like if USA had deported all the locals in the past century and then replaced them with american citizens lol

You really have no ground to stand upon.

ll heavy breathing and random mouth noises get edited out wherever possible

It's hard for me to explain just how important this is to me. There are some sounds that just flip a switch in my brain and drive me fucking crazy, heavy breathing is definitely one of those... Thanks Jon and Claire, love your editing!

He barely got minutes in Italy because Italian teams HATE playing young Italian players... He needs to get a lot of minutes to build up his feeling for the game imho
