No, not at all! That's looney talk. And why would it have to be Mexico? Why don't we attack Russia now? They are 20 miles away from us as it is. They are armed to the teeth.

Putin has not pressed the accelerator yet.

Watch the oil markets. Russia is making bank due to Biden's moves here in the US.
Sanctions?

They're flush coming out of 2021.

IRFUBAR mentioned that Russia was stockpiling gold reserves.

It seems their actual position might be a bit murky.

The truth is none and I mean none of us know the truth.... we can speculate.
I made my speculation, others that like to criticize should make theirs and we can have a discussion.
Or we can just accuse everyone of being conspiracy theorist and dumbfucks.... that talk adds nothing and in my view is simply virtue signaling.

Your assertion means nothing unless you elaborate.... that may require too much though?

By that fact alone, he is potentially as justified as we would be if we decided to clean out the cartels in Mexico. I hope he kills every damned criminal in that government, Fuq it. I just don’t care and the more that certain people over here bleat about it, the more certain I am that he is in the right because these people bleating about are spiritually incapable of being on the side of right and truth.



And I see the propaganda worked on you.


That’s the best you’ve got. How about an explanation of why we are morally superior to Putin?


First, tell me how the US being wrong in the past justifies Putin's actions?

The Us backed NATO expansion and that is a direct threat to Russia


Its not a direct threat to Russia. That's a copout. Try again.


I suspect it is a threat and Putin has expressed his concern also..... but of course you know better
Maybe you could explain your stance?

Perhaps Putin is the threat to those around him, rather than invade they merely armed themselves. Putin doesn't get to dictate what sovereign nations do.

No he isn't. Any rear admiral, heavy on the rear, that takes such a position from Joe probably isn't our friend.

Agreed.

I read your assessment. Thank you for writing it.

There's certainly plenty of support for the outcomes you describe. The optimist in me hopes it doesn't come to that. We'd be fools to lose the dollar as the global fiat currency. If the US doesn't start playing a longer game, we run the risk of getting crushed over the long run.

Thanks Kingston, writing those things is like making predictions... risky, with no upside....I like to live a little dangerous though.... smile

Existential threats are threats nonetheless.

Tylerw02 can't seem to get beyond dancing around the details.

So you're a socialist?


On the contrary.You on the other hand are-supporting the idea that a private business has the right to monopolize an entire industry or even an economy.



First of all, anti-trust is a socialist construct.

Second of all, you've provided no compelling argument that you have a right to others' platform.


So, carrying your opinion further, if I own a company that has a patent on a mRNA/DNA therapy product and you use it, I then own your mRNA/DNA based on my private company offering a patented product that you and the public chose to use. Your right to your mRNA/DNA is now no longer valid, I can control them.
This scenario can bleed right over into the air waves i.e. wireless platforms/servers. If I own those platform/servers, I can stop you from alerting the public over some kind of false news at my leisure. I would call that censuring free speech. While I may own the platform/server, the air waves my platform/servers are broadcasting on are public domain.
