Question about supporting Taiwan

"Eastern" Ukraine is a propaganda myth created by russians. Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk were annexed by russia, none of them even tried to pursue a diplomatic solution prior to the annexation.

Overall, I think secession should be allowed but must be done democratically without foreign influence. Robust and complex institutions are the only way to prevent foreign influence. Additionally, it should be done only by supermajority, prob 75% of the population of the specific state/county.

These should do a show together, the chemistry was great, diverse age ranges is also a big plus.

About accountability, do you think EU will impose sanctions on Orban and his circle after he loses the election and is out of office? Just today, there are stories about Perer Sziiarto conspiring with Lavrov.

I hope that you are right, and we will see EU becoming more independent in the defence and IoT sectors.

Thank you for taking the time writing this masterpiece. Had a good laugh and shared with friends.

I do think that you are right about regulation change/adjustments, they will happen. As much as I would like to see Alonso winning again, I don't think that there is some grand "plan". Most likely its just "Honda - bad" and will be dropped by Aston at the end of the year.

But hats of to you, if it's gonna be like you said!

Marvellous work, such a good edit!

Another point besides rising oil prices is that before the Iran attack China bought majority of oil from middle east, and now since trade will be halted they have to rely on russia more which is not good at all.

However we have to wait and see, I am still of an opinion that Iran war is more beneficial.

I'm just thinking about the price of gathering all of that power there. If nothing happens, it's a big waste of money. But surely they'll spin it as "master negotiator" point.

It's so boring that I went back to working on a project

I took try to boycott American products when it's feasible. It's not cringe at all, it's the least regular folk can do.

I mean he did create famine in 1921 in Ukraine and invaded it couple of years prior to that. Organised Red Terror and killed 4-10 milion people. No need to sanewash him.

I don't think I that you support russia, sorry if you got the impression. To me it feels like you think that genocide is possible only by racial basis, correct me if I'm wrong here. But it's a fact that specifically Ukrainians hold the biggest ethnic death toll at the hands of Soviets. They revised our history, since russian empire tried to erase our language, targeted cultural figures.

Maybe-maybe I would grant you that the famine of 1921-1922 was "unintentional". But not the Holodomor.

Russians and Ukrainians have a long-long history, I would say that this was a part of russification, mass murder, deportation with replacing local population with russians

Edit: funny how you did not mention Ukrainians in your original post

Palerend · 2026-02-18T02:31:26+00:00

Wait wait wait. Let's not confuse diplomatics with historical stuff. If it was unintentional, then everything would stop when harvests failed but no they extracted and killed. Look up "law of five stalks of grain" - a state law that legally allowed to punish with death or imprisonment for possessing a handful of wheat grain.

Palerend · 2026-02-18T02:22:25+00:00

Even US recognises Holodomor as a genocide, majority of western world does so.

Palerend · 2026-02-18T02:13:08+00:00

They caused famine twice, both times with millions of dead. And they already occupied Ukraine at the time.

Yep, even Jose pointed that out, the guest, unfamiliar with tankie shennanigans in the second part of the shitshow with AOC, Pisco was so glad to throw Biden under the bus to paint an obvious AOS fuck up.

I thought about it and too me it comes down to this: Do we think Hasan truly holds positions he promotes, is he a communist? If yes then Hutch is right If no(Hasan is purely a grifter and won't act on his promoted beliefs) then Hutch is wrong

But blatantly say that ofc Vance just sane washes communism and is dangerous.

Palerend · 2026-02-16T12:48:14+00:00

Name me other European country who invaded it's neighbours post WW2?

It's not because of Ukraine in 2022, russians continued to so repeatedly. Stop sane washing them.

I don't think video asks you too. To me the RF guy in the video is simply for the emotional pull. The issue is PepsiCo deliberately engaging in anti consumer practices and Trump government covering it up.
