Why Ukraine
#5
(02-20-2022, 09:38 PM)Ninurta Wrote: Aye. Ever since I was a small child, the Ukraine has been known as "The Bread Basket of Russia", So the agricultural observations above are and have been well known for quite a long time, as has the association of the Ukraine with Russia. Less well known are the mineral deposits and productions mentioned.

But wait, there's more - the MIC and news ratings:





Now, at about 6:24 of that video, we find the following quote:

Quote:"An underdog faces a threat from an authoritarian regime, so the United States must come to the rescue with a military response"

And that is true. The  US tends to go running into places with "advisors" and munitions, claiming to be only intending to liberate the underdogs. My ass. There are underdogs all over the world - why is it we only "liberate" the ones with potential financial benefits?

Going by the quote alone, we should be invading Canada right now and "liberating the underdogs from an authoritarian regime" - but we're not. There is no financial incentive to liberate Canada from the clutches of Trudeau.

Going by the quote alone, we should really, in fact, be sending US troops into the US to liberate the nation from an authoritarian regime. But we're not. As a friend of mine put it, "if the US could see what the US is doing in the US, we'd be sending US troops into the US to liberate it."

So the tired jingoism of "liberating the underdogs" is just that, sloganism, and the real reasons for it are a little deeper under the Swamp... and they are preceded by dollar signs.

Also of note is Russell Brand claiming to feel like he has "gone through the looking glass" because right is suddenly left, up is suddenly down, and philosophical underpinnings of various ideologies appear to have undergone a sea change.

There is nothing new under the sun. Remember that.

Prior to and during the US Civil War, the Republicans branded THEMSELVES as "radicals", and the Democrats were the conservative party in this nation. After the Civil War, and especially after Reconstruction, those ideological assignments flip-flopped. The Republicans became conservatives, and the Democrats became the radicals. Then, as time wore on, the Democrats became known as "the party of the working man", and the Republicans became known as "the party of big business". As time further eroded ideologies, that intensified to what we've known in the past few years as the association of Republicans with "fascists" and the association of Democrats with "socialists".- - never mind that both fascism and socialism are collectivist ideologies, and neither has any support for the individual.

"Fascism" and "socialism" are in fact just slight variants of the same damned thing, and that thing is more commonly known as "totalitarianism", what Marxists claim is "the dictatorship of the proletariat" and other folks refer to as "mob rule". In practice, it always shakes out as a dictatorial oligarchy under an assumed name. "The Workers" used as the muscle to usher it in are always, in the end, relegated to the bottom of the heap... and the Oligarchs who used the workers to attain power take their seats on the throne.

NOW, however, we seem to be undergoing a sea change again, and it's suddenly the Republicans that are fighting for the working man, and the Democrats who are shilling for the money men. That has thrown everyone into a confusion. It's almost as if it were designed to do that very thing, isn't it?

This ain't over, and it never will be. Just remember to not believe everything you are fed, examine the silver spoon they are using to feed the bullshit to you, search out answers for yourself, and come to your own conclusions. That is the only way you will ever arrive at something resembling objectivity.

I myself have been accused of "shilling for Putin", "supporting the godless commie Russians", etc, simply because I point out that we've got no dog in that Ukrainian fight. Why spend OUR blood and treasure "over there" when we have so many problems that desperately need to be addressed OVER HERE? I'm for US, in America, and could give a shit about Putin, Ukraine, or anything else east of the Danube.

It's almost like BidenHarris and Company have engineered and manufactured a distraction to keep us from addressing the problems they are creating right here, under our own noses...

I mean, really - when they designated Horizontal Harris as "Border Czar", I was under the mistaken impression that they meant OUR border here at home - I did not realize until later that they really meant that she needed to secure a foreign border, that of the Ukraine, while burning our own border down, allowing it to soak into the desert sands and dissipate into oblivion...

ETA: The Ukraine has always been a part of Russia since I can remember, and now Russia wants it back. I wonder how BidenHarris would feel if Texas seceeded from the Union, and he went to reclaim it like Lincoln did with the south, and Russia started arming up Texas and stationing troops in Cuba, Canada, and Mexico?

There! Did I get that right, Uncle Vladimir? Do I get my AK74 and 10,000 round of 5.45 for my birthday now?


.

I like the idea US invading Canada now tinylaughing 

The dictator Trudeu needs to get ousted out just like Saddam , if use same justification .....and this dictator is much more near US than Iraq . He can soon arrange secret missiles from China and then you are back to Cuba-like situation again
