Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Mr Kobayashi]

OK so only capitalism uses resources, thanks for clearing that up. Lets just check that shall we

Largest user of coal - China https://www.iea.org/reports/coal-information-overview/consumption

Largest user of oil - USA followed by China https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/oil-consumption-by-country

Highest percentage of renewable energy - Germany, then UK, in fact the top 10 are all capitalist pigs err countries https://www.smart-energy.com/renewa...h-the-highest-proportion-of-renewable-energy/

You didn't try and defend your "There are no bad guys" comment I see

China is closer to a capitalist economy than a communist one.

China is closer to a capitalist economy than a communist one.

And a large amount of their energy consumption is spent making shit for us.

‘Putin has stated no need for martial law and destruction of Ukraine’s military infrastructure is nearly complete.’ @meduza_en

He was talking to an trainee air stewards conference or something.

Getting Monty Python vibes here...

The little loser has a massive inferiority complex.
Next time he'll talk to school girls.
And even them won't believe him.

You should give the anti-EU rhetoric a rest for once. Or do it on the politics forum.

Merely responding to the misleading drivel about sanctions.

This might be one of the defining photographs of the war if there's a version that shows the soldier's face.

Russia's airforce losses are becoming completely untenable.

I can see why you would say that, but it isn't really, at least not according to the wiki, which we all know is infallible

Socialist market economy - Wikipedia

Such as lifting billions out of poverty.
Of course it is not perfect, but be realistic. I have never come across an example of socialism lifting people out of poverty.

Well I was actually. That gov achieved much on the social front, but economically zilch.
Your reply is not a serious answer.

Reduced the postwar national debt. Built over a million homes. Free health care.

Zilch?

 

[bluealf]

It is coming close to the time we need to step in and put a stop to this, the man has lost his mind and really it is bordering on genocide right now, the world can not stand by while he carries out these atrocities.

The problem, and why people get annoyed is this.

Poster 1 - here's my opinion/article that says this.

Poster 2, 3, 4, 5 - Oh that's actually not true, here's a long, sourced comment explaining why.

Poster 1 doesn't reply or acknowledge at all.

Poster 1 (12 hours or 2 days later) - Here's my unchanged opinion and another incredibly dubious source I found that agrees with me.

1150 pages in people get bored of it from the same half dozen posters and recognise that they aren't trying to have a debate, or learn more.

You're describing flat Earthers, yeah ? ;)
