[Shocked and Horrified]

They may be rigged, but at least Putin carries on the illusion of free elections. Zelensky declared martial law in 2022, and has said elections would be held after they win the war. Putin is a bit less distasteful than the grubby mooch.

From what I've heard there's been enough shenanigans over there that I wouldn't be surprised if a rigging political machine is the thing there that keeps her in office. Like she somehow won an independent race and after that managed to pass in cancerous ranked choice voting to eliminate that potential threat?

She won re-election by finishing 3rd in the popular vote and winning off of ranked choice.

There was a ballot referendum to get rid of ranked choice, "Yes" won until they found enough mail in votes after 3 weeks to flip the result to "no"

"Journos could be here" Putin thought. "Journos could be anywhere, I hate journos"

so did anything really big or exciting come from the meeting? This isn’t a troll i wanna kniw

>Trump said the meeting was very productive and that he and Putin agreed on many points
>a few significant things left to iron out
>now it's up to Zelensky and European allies to take the ball and run with it
>Trump also thinks the next step needs to be either a bilateral meeting between Putin and Zelensky or trilateral meeting including himself (possibly to be held in Alaska again)

Levin's been bleeding listeners and radio spots ever since the Gaza war began. The guy is a lunatic but I respect a man throwing his entire career in the toilet to shill for his tribe.

Ron Paul certainly had a libertarian streak to him, but at the same time he was smart enough to realize that joining the Libertarian party would be stupid and accomplish fuck all. It's not quite as much of a joke as an "anarchist party", but the only way to get two libertarians to agree on any kind of policy is to shoot both of them.

Ron Paul's first presidential run was on the libertarian ticket. He doesn't have a libertarian streak, he is a libertarian.

Why is everyone shocked Putin knows English.

Dude was a high ranking KGB officer that also was here in the US at one time.

I swear, everyone makes the biggest fucking mistake of always saying "They are my enemies, so they are stupid" and then always being surprised when they aren't.

He's a vodka swilling communist KGB douchebag who stole a Superbowl ring, but he's not an idiot.

At which point does the foaming-at-the-mouth psychotic Zionist lust for the punitive slaughter of innocents start to make ‘Christians United for Israel’ ask “is this a course of action Jesus would be endorsing?”

 

[Dafuqisdis?]

Libertarianism rests on the naive assumption that everyone else is a morally upstanding person.

Violent thugs, scammers, and sex criminals aren't so a libertarian society would fall victim to them. It's like refusing to lock your doors at night despite living in the ghetto, because society should be peaceful. Just because things "should be good" doesn't mean they will be good.

Libertarians are dumbasses that think that their philosophy is the end product of the founding fathers vision. in reality they don't understand the principles that the founders enshrined in the constitution: that government is not just good but necessary to fulfill its proper function: securing the nation and the rights of the people of that nation. Government only becomes bad when it's destructive of those principles.

I remember him speaking English during the Sochi Olympics. People would be surprised which world leaders don’t speak English or at least don’t speak it well (for instance Merkel delivered her speech to congress in German because her English sucks)

It’s just that speaking the other parties language during an official event like this is seen as a sign of subjugation and weakness.

the punitive slaughter of innocents

Ha ha ha, you think Palestinians are innocents.

??? What libertarians have you been speaking to?

Most libertarians I've known are fully aware the world sucks, and are just madlads that think a newly libertarian society will be like the Purge for a bit, than society will ultimately work itself out. They aren't overly trusting, they just don't want to pay taxes and hate federal gun laws. They don't put much thought into how a libertarian society will work (or won't work) 'cause ultimately the vast majority of libertarians are idiots.

 

[SITHRAK!]

Ha ha ha, you think Palestinians are innocents.

Do you think that every single Palestinian, Christian or Muslim, old, young, or newborn, bears a responsibility for October 7th that warrants their death?

Would you not concede that thousands, if not tens of thousands of people killed in Gaza, had literally nothing at all to do with Hamas or the attack?

Can these shitty wars end so we can get some cool wars again?

Can these shitty wars end so we can get some cool wars again?

This.

I'm sick of boring Middle Eastern Sand Wars. Can we have a naval battle for once? Or maybe something cool, like a war in space. Moon Wars: Part 1!

 

[Bonzi Baptist]

It's about time we get a new war to talk about. The Antifa-redneck civil war is 5 years overdue. But we need a Franz Ferdinand-type figure to get it started.
