"I am not mad at you. This is not your fault. I am upset at the situation, and I am having trouble controlling myself. I apologize if I sound crazy or have upset you with my words and actions."

He's also on maybe the most quoted Dave Chappelle episode of all time

Oh my God I keep running into the same Russian troll. He posts an article that is clearly Russian propaganda, I post 5+ news sources that prove him wrong, he uses a bot net to downvote me and then tries to attack my character using anything he can. He commented, then deleted, then reposted under a different name to make it seem like it isn't one person or the same group of people. Dumb fucker doesn't realize 1)I'm Indian living in the US and 2) I can see the same 40 aliases that upvote his every word

Dude WILL NOT respond to the links, just tries to say since my account is new I don't know anything, or some other farcical straw man that doesn't counter the points I've made. We need to push back against these asshats

Margo Robbie? Hardcore? Count me in!

There comes a point in a person's life when they have to confront their parents or that crazy relative about their insane and damaging beliefs. This is that time for millennials. The boomers had it easy and they robbed us in our infancy. I don't care which side of the aisle you side with: Trumpism is damaging to the entire nation, and cannot be allowed to go any further.

I hadn't heard of the YouTube thing. Doesn't matter because I don't use it, but it's still outrageous.

I am willing to watch an ad or two every 15 minutes, so long as they are no more than a minute total of wasted time. This ultra-monetization crap where it's a minute and a half every 5 minutes is why people use AdBlockers and pirate media.

Be reasonable as a business, and you'll get a reasonable response. Flood my free time with ads, and you get AdBlock and piracy.

Well that settles it. I'm moving to another instance.

I had a deployment with Polish soldiers. They are a modern and extremely capable defensive force. It would likely turn into the same thing we're seeing in Ukraine (smaller force that is well trained and better supplied vs sending a lot of bodies and old tech). I don't think we'll ever see a Polish led force invading Belarus or Russia without a massive NATO backing and a lot of foreign units already on the way to support them. Defensively, they will fuck you up. Offensively, they don't have the man power to go deep into enemy territory.

The Polish have historical grudges with Russia and are chomping at the bit to hurt some Russians. It is probably NATO that is holding them back from sending units to Ukraine

DEEP COCK GALACTIC is doing well, I see.

Doggo sees all directions at once!

Perhaps not Mexico specifically, but N+S American trade was bound to increase dramatically once China started making demands on the US. China's play with Cuba will be met with even more push to stop buying Chinese goods. China is a manufacturing powerhouse, but S and Central American land and labor is cheaper.

We'll just have to wait and see in about 15 years
