as expected, the former guy, IQ45 has sided with Putin
and Russia against the U.S in the conflict brewing in the Ukraine…
this is not unexpected as IQ 45 is a well-known lap dog of Putin…
as the public policy of the GOP is to follow IQ 45,
the entire GOP has followed suit and are praising Putin
and the invasion of the Ukraine…(don’t believe me… see the official
platform of the GOP during the last, 2020, election…it says, in no uncertain
language, that the GOP supports IQ45… and he dictates the platform…
what he says is the official GOP platform, so officially, there was no GOP platform in 2020,
that IQ45 dictates the entire GOP platform in 2020 and that is the platform)
anyway, so we have the traitor Josh Hawley also praising Putin
and his invasion of the Ukraine…but who in the GOP has actually supported
America? Few if any…no, for the GOP, the only thing that counts is to support whatever
IQ45 supports and he supports Russia and Putin, not Biden and America…
You trust the same people who lied us into war with Afghanistan and Iraq to give us accurate info on what’s happening in Eastern Ukraine?
Of course you do, you trust the technocrats, even when they habitually lie.
You’re a technocrat, not a democrat, ‘to hell with democracy, getting a second opinion and alternative, independent journalism’, you cave to the establishment every time, as long as it wears a progressive face, as long as the soldiers are diverse, equally white, black, male, female, gay, straight, cis & trans, that’s all that matters.
As long as we’re waving the BLM-rainbow flag alongside the stars and stripes.
[b]Poll: Americans don’t want war with Russia over Ukraine
Wary of military adventurism, the survey also found that Americans want US leaders to focus on domestic issues.
As tensions mount in Eastern Europe amid questions about whether Russian President Vladimir Putin will order an invasion of Ukraine, a new poll has found that Americans don’t have much of an appetite to go to war to defend the former Soviet Republic, with a vast majority saying U.S. leaders should focus their attention on domestic issues.
According to a survey conducted by YouGov in conjunction with the Charles Koch Institute that was released on Friday, a plurality of Americans (48 percent) said they either strongly or somewhat oppose “going to war with Russia to protect Ukraine’s territorial integrity” should Russia invade. Just 27 percent favored such a move while 24 percent said they didn’t know.
Meanwhile, 73 percent agreed that the United States “should prioritize domestic issues over foreign policy issues,” and just 7 percent agreed that foreign policy should take precedence.
The poll also found little enthusiasm for increasing the U.S. military presence around the world, with 40 percent saying the United States should be less engaged, while 32 percent said it should remain about the same.[/b]
PK thinks America, Britain and Canada are the defenders of democracy and human rights around the world.
Clueless
He has a Saturday morning cartoon notion of what our militaries do abroad.
No we prop up totalitarian dictatorships like Saudi Arabia and overthrow free democracies whenever it suits the oligarchs who run things.
What’s in it for us?
What do we get out of attempting to conquer Ukraine and install a puppet government, except inflation, higher gas prices and the prospect of nuclear war and MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) with Russia?
Nothing
How 'bout we spend those trillions of tax dollars right here, on infrastructure, hospitals, housing and community centers, or alternatively, keep that money in our pockets?
How 'bout Americans do a better job defending their own borders?
Ukraine is a mess.
It’s not like it’s this peaceful, prosperous free democracy, it’s fascistic, poor, backward, corrupt, divided, there’s lots of infighting between different ethnic groups, Ukrainians, Russians and others.
It’s not like Russia is attempting to takeover some country on the other side of the globe, no that’s our job, it’s just concerned with reestablishing stability on its borders.
America and the west are in decline across the board, sociopolitically and economically.
It’s time to accept a multipolar world, with multiple superpowers, scale back are involvement, let the east and southern hemisphere largely attend to themselves.
We’ve got enough problems of our own, arguably America is on the brink of civil war and Canada is nearly a police state.
We’ve made a mess of Afghanistan, Iraq and West Asia, everything our military touches turns to shit.
Whatever moral high ground we had after WW2, we lost, no WMDs or ties with Al Qaeda in Iraq, these wars that lead to the death and displacement of millions were based on lies.
It’s time to put domestic concerns waaay ahead of foreign policy.
oh, how cute… the constant refrain, oh, Kropotkin he is wrong…
and yet, no one actually engaged with the thread itself… IQ45 did praise
Putin… something he has never done with Biden… but yah, sure,
go with Kropotkin is wrong… without ever addressing the thread in question…
