I’ve drafted multiple responses to this but I find this comment so nonsensical that I get lost in my own anger trying to formulate a coherent sentence.

Sir/madam, you have broken me.

?

I assume the other 3rd are “Ukrainian” in the way that they’ve been places in Ukraine by Russ, but remain loyal to Russia, not Ukraine

Jesus Christ Russia have absolutely nailed this part of their geopolitical play.

They’ve basically got 2 members of, if not an entire, US government under their thumb, they’ve corrupted the EU to make one of their major contributors to leave (thinking the US is on their side, idiotically), and they’ve got good relations with the other superpower (china).

Annoyingly, it looks like the EU which is the most, even if not enough, “for the people” political establishment in our world today is going to get screwed over the next decade or so.

What was the plan here? Surely they had some idea of what they were going to do with the bodies?

A weird amount of people were triggered by you asking for evidence. A reflection on our times.

I was replying to the other guy, and agreeing with you :)

What’s your solution then? It’s a fair enough concern that Putin backed in to a corner is going to become even more unhinged and throw some nukes around, no?

It seems the only option down that path is to accept that the endgame here is having all of Russia, and at least one other country, nuked.

Couldn’t agree what stash you’d each grow for Movember? :D /s

Surprised nobody tounge in cheek said this already, maybe it’s too obvious?

Ask an AI.

I’m not sure you understood. The fire is all of the other nonsense policies that trump comes up with, and that his party is likely to impose.

Is trump going to do anything different though?

Former President Donald Trump declared Tuesday that Israel must “finish the problem” in its war against Hamas

If the above is true, I don’t know why anyone would bring his up. It’s like choosing between two seats on a bus. One has broken glass on it, the other has broken glass and is on fire.

That’s option 2 or 3, right?

It’s an interesting problem.

Does the EU let Chinese vehicles in, allow the reduction of EU manufacturing, reducing jobs available, possibly imposing further poverty on the poor, and possibly to the point where they can’t afford the Chinese vehicles anyway?

Does the EU add taxes to Chinese vehicles, making them less available to the poor, but possibly protecting jobs within the EU? Perhaps whilst trying to engage EU automakers to make more EVs?

Does the EU add taxes to Chinese vehicles, without pushing the change to EVs, and just not really manage this situation well?

My money is on aspirations for option 2, but in reality option 3.

White, republican, yet was still found not guilty by a jury?! :O

Elons character arc from a PR point of view is really interesting.

At one point I bet many of his current followers were loudly critical of him for Tesla disrupting the ICE vehicle industry. At that point he was seen as much more progressive.

But his mask has now been removed to show the opportunistic business man he is with very little moral standards. Becoming the enemy of many that had previously fallen for his PR, including me.

In my head he really seems like a comic book character.

I genuinely use this technique to get myself out go and exercise sometimes.

Seeing my body as a pet I need to take for a walk can be a weird but helpful mindset.

My comment specifically states that killing him wasn’t the optimal solution here, so I can’t see how that’s your intrepretation of it.

That’s my interpretation of it because you’re basically saying that because he was breaking the law (maybe you’re saying that it’s because he was breaking specific laws), it’s justified that he was shot and killed.

Whether you want to pussyfoot around the distinction between him deserving it and it being justified is beside the point from my perspective because I don’t believe he did deserve it or that it was justified.

Seems like we’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

Literally everyone acts like im some sort of evil disgusting monster and stays as far away from me as possible

The bit anon left out is that this is how everyone treats him everyday, sick or not.

Neither the article, or anything mentioned in these comments is claiming the victim’s ‘innocence’. They are however making the point that EVEN if you do all of those things you shouldn’t expect to be shot and killed.

Your comment sounds equivalent of claiming girls that dress provocatively deserve to be raped. It just isn’t the point. The point is that he should not have been killed.
