See how easy that is? You can't ad hominem a conflict when defending a side that initites the conflict by insulting people. You can't get mad that I'll respond with "well then you hate poor people" when on the side of people who started this exchange with "well you hate Ukrainians and want us to die!!!!!!1111" () You think I think I'm always right because you agree with the people who dogmatically think not voting in some sin and it just quite literally is not. Not voting is quite literally neutral. Votes are not owed. Of course we're going to constantly have this go around as long as people keep pretending that they have a right to insult people who do not vote. I'm not "arguing with everyone". I'm making a pretty basic claim that apparently many people in here cant answer to and think thei frustrations justifies me then being a target of their insults and abuse. No, I don't want Trump to win. No, I don't want Ukrainian people to die (lol??) No, I don't ~stan Russia~ (lol????) I literally have made the single observation that Joe Biden is going to lose in 2024 unless he listens to progressives. The vast majority of empirical evidence shows this. And no one "has" to disprove it, but you or anyone else's inability to disprove that observation doesn't entitle you or anyone to lash out in anger like this entire thread shows. And it doesn't entitle you to cry wolf when you get it back as good as you gave it. Oh progressives hate Ukrainians? Okay, well then you hate poor women by proxy of supporting Biden. Oh leftists apparently love and support Trump if they criticize Biden? Okay, well then you love the idea of LGBT people dying by refusing to criticize Biden. We can keep this going. ***-for-tat. None of it stopping Biden's continued failures he should fix. Edited June 16, 2022 by Communion

The person is clearly misinformed and doesn't have enough grasp on how the world works. In their world covid didn't happen. Biden is a dictator. And the United States got nothing to do with Ukraine.

ZIVERT Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Meanwhile in Russia, at one of the main banks of the country: “So it I receive $150 from the USA, you will just take all of it for yourselves in commission?” ”Hello. Yes, such conditions. Hope you understand.” One of the main countries in the bank can’t send transfers of less than $20,000 or receive less than $200 you can see the quote RTs yourself, Russians are pissed.

What do I want them to do? Not fund crimes against humanity. How is this even a question? Expand None of this post makes any sense nor adresses what you or me said in our respective posts which is basically the purchase of oil/gas resources You implied it's what the US and the EU deserved "infaltion"??? for buying oil and gas and depending on these "tyrant countries" which doesn't make any sense as if the rest of the whole world doesn't also depend from the oil and gas from these countries. We're talking about very limited and concentrated resources where do you want them to buy them from? Neither the US nor the EU are the only territories that buy their oil and gas from these "tyrant countries" as you call them. I'm sure countries like China, Japan, Korea, India, South Africa, Brazil, etc. also obtain a substantial amount of their fuel energy resources from them so your complain makes no sense. No one is making the "poor countries" depend on these "tyrants", both them and the "rich" ones depend from them because they are the ones who have the resources. What do you want them to do, make oil out of the air? I bet they wish they could Countries like Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, etc. most definitely are in control of their oil and gas and artificially meddle with the oil and gas prices because they can, that's why the OPEC exists (more now than ever knowing very well those resources are running out, part of which they are heavily investing in trying to become renewable energy powers). That the wealth resulting from those precious resources isn't equally distributed is another issue that pertains to those countries not the likes of the EU. Overall your post is filled with deflection and nonsense tbqh looking at your initial one. Specially as if Europe is at fault that Russia has never been democratic and is ruled by a tyrant dictator that it's using the gas supply as a war weapon, like If anything you could blame the world, mainly the developed countries, for not investing heavily in renewable energies sooner Edited June 17, 2022 by Cloudy

Russia is badly hurt and it will keep suffering due to lack of access to crucial resources and components and general isolation. The longer it goes the higher the risk that Russia will crumble and fall. The only reason Russia is doing "fine" at the moment is the rising energy prices. That won't last forever and the EU is getting itself off Russian energy dependence slowly but surely. Would you prefer if the west didn't do anything? Like what's the alternative.

I never once claimed Russian civilians weren’t suffering because of sanctions. The point is, they were supposed to target Putin and his oligarchs and make him lose support. If anything, the opposite has happened, and civilians are rallying around their nationalism, supporting their leader’s war in anger against the evil West. Meanwhile, in the West, inflation has been exacerbated, and the United States is going to be punishing the ruling party over spiking price increases en masse in November. As a result, Joe Biden will face impeachment, growing calls for removal via 25th Amendment due to senility, and broad societal collapse as people go homeless due to not being able to afford rent.
