You’re drinking 3/4 of a LITER of milkshake?

a) he was a ho-er

b) he slapped me and challenged me to a dual in New Jersey

I know a guy

was gonna say, I have IDEs and other dedicated programs for that

you need to focus! It’s not time for a fiesta!

micwosowft is just a smol bean

Curious, what IS the best new car brand for privacy? Especially in the EV sector?

don’t worry, they’ll keep stoking nationalist paranoia and shift to weapon production. What’s the worst that could happen?

I like it!

The only problem with single use drones is the parts are likely easier to trace as they’ll leave remnants.

Between 3D printers and Japanese prime minister hate, I’m sure someone could find a way

yeah, but much harder to find over the counter than shotgun shells

The prequels got a breath of respect with how bad the sequel trilogy wound up. J J managed to rehabilitate George.

call me a conservative, but I think we need to stick to traditional laws . . .

Golly, can you imagine if someone maybe hooked up a small tube to fire shotgun shells FROM a drone? That would be awful!

For one, I was speaking from the perspective of people participating.

So, in addition to supporting their conscription, you’ve decided to speak for them.

Beyond that, I don’t think it’s a stretch to consider Russia a threat to Europe.

Russia might be, but they’re also the neighbor, and will continue to be there. Unless you can start to address security concerns of both the EU and Russia, your only other choice is going to be the destruction and subjugation of one or the other. Do you intend to send others to fight (since you don’t yourself) to kill hundreds of millions of Russians?

What else would you call a hostile power with the stated desire to claim your land for themselves?

The United States. The same entity that pushed this proxy war, btw.

and ultimately my own country and self.

Trust me, it’s painfully obvious that you have no problem seeing Ukrainians die in the trenches for the small benefit you think will accrue to you.

The fun part of this is going to be the blowback - because the Ukrainians are also well aware of it.

But I will not demand that another country roll over and submit to an imperial aggressor

You’re just willing to demand that countries you don’t live in continue to fight and die for the war you won’t.

I’m very much eager to avoid any situation where I would have to become a fighter, brave or otherwise

In which case you should, if you had any shred of integrity, shut the fuck up about deciding to put others into the hell that is a war zone.

Otherwise, take your label of chickenhawk and wear it with the shame it deserves.

Referring to “the enemy” when you’re not fighting makes your desire to appear as part of the war effort obvious.

Why can’t you go fight in this war that you obviously support? Again, people are literally being forced to. Why isn’t a possibility with you, who unlike many of the people forced feels this war should continue?

Seems, like most of the NAFO folks, you’re eager to tell yourself you’re a brave warrior . . . and willing to fight to the last Ukrainian, and not one step further.

You’re pretending to be doing something while conscripts die for the war you cheerlead, chickenhawk.

You’re more pathetic and disgusting than a plain coward. At least they don’t try and pretend they’re involved

Much nicer than being shot at, like the Ukrainian and Russian soldiers are forced to. Plus, you get to say things like “the enemy” from the security of your couch! o7
