They didn’t share a border until the Soviets and NAZIs jointly invaded their neighbor Poland.

Exactly, the country that shared a massive land border with the NAZIs and was a direct target of their aggression suffered many more casualties than the ones what didn’t, who’da thunk it? Without the combined efforts of essentially the entire rest of the world, the USSR would have been toast.

And the Ukrainians, and the Poles, and the French resistance, and the British, and the Americans, and the Canadians, and…

We tried that in 2016 and got Trump.

My personal favorite is “magat”.

IDK man my toaster oven works pretty well

I voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries AND I’m a progressive. I did so because I knew he had a better chance of winning over a broad group of voters that might have been turned off by populist loudmouths. Once the threat of fascism has subsided I will gladly vote third party, but for now we have coalitions to build and freedoms to protect.

You misspelled Netanyahu

all these people hate MEEEEEEEEE that’s why they voted for Biden!

Honey, nobody was even thinking about you. Maybe if you spent the last 50 years shaping the political ecosystem to be more receptive to your ideals, like the fascists did, you might have actually have a political presence worth noting. You lost the long game, now all that’s left is damage control.

I don’t mean to put words in your mouth, but that’s what I see happening when you implement “laws to tamp down the blatant lying”. Maybe I’m just paranoid, but I don’t trust any sort of diet social credit score.

That’s a terrible idea from a privacy standpoint, not to mention that absolute nightmare of giving the government to authority to identify and prosecute liars, whomever they deem them to be.

Fortnite has lasted longer than the confederacy.

The problem is that’s only half the battle. What do you do when his legions of supporters decide they don’t like losing and take it out on the rest of the country?

Good for you, get crackin’ or have fun in the camps. We have fascists to deal with.

It’s not just about if her wins, it’s about what those states might try to pull if they lose.

That’s not a bad philosophy when all you care about is the moral victory. If you care about results however, there’s little use in pearl clutching and acting offended by the idea of fascists doing fascism. It’s what they do. I don’t blame the crocodile for eating the baby, it’s a dangerous reptile that needs to be put down, but it’s predictable and doing exactly what it’s programmed to do. I blame the adults who sat around and assumed they could allow the baby to wander that close to the water’s edge without anything happening, all the while filling its’ head with pro-crocodile propaganda. Individual humans are intelligent beings with agency, groups of humans are stupid and vulnerable to manipulation. Time to get your gun and go gator huntin’.

It doesn’t matter to them how they look, so long as they’re the ones wearing the crown when it’s all over.

Shit man, I used to commute almost that exact distance each way. Anything under triple digits is practically in-town in many places.

You were being an ignorant dick and I called you on it. It’s not my fault you can’t handle a few hours on the road.

Touche lol
