Only in the sense that a ball dropping to the ground when you release it is influenced by a range of factors beyond gravity.

I’m in my late twenties or early thirties.

There is no evidence to suggest that NATO could push Russia out of Ukraine in conventional warfare. The Russians and their allies are WAY better prepared for that war, and it would immediately turn into the third world war, not remain “NATO vs Russia”.

Takes like yours are equally dangerous as the brainless “Ukraine is actually winning the war” ones, even though you appear slightly more neutral and informed.

The actual situation is way more complex still than you claim. You take this weird stance where the Russian heads of state are evil, Ukrainian/US/NATO heads of state are not, Russian soldiers might or might not be, and Ukrainian soldiers are not.

In reality, the invasion phase of the war is justified from the Russian point of view, so their heads of state and soldiers are in the right. Same goes for western heads of state and soldiers. Me and you both live in the west and therefore have our own perspective on the war. People in BRICS states have their own perspective (that I’m quite familiar with due to having actually spent the effort on reading, unlike 99% of western commentators on this war).

Besides, don’t feel bad for Russian soldiers for being victims of the circumstances. Ukraine has been snatching people off the streets against their will for the past months and dropping them on the frontlines. This is happening in the majority Russian speaking cities and towns, not majority Ukrainian ones.

None of the corporations I’ve been part of have been doing “abhorrent” things. You’re projecting your socialist ideology.

That is beyond terrible. Are you joking? I feel sad that I spent a minute reading that.

He was not the dealer.

Tracking and weighing everything is a massive waste of time and energy. There are no obese animals (humans included) in the wild. Just stop eating the wrong things.

I maintain a muscular 225 by eating dairy, eggs, and meat. If I want to drop down to 215, I drop dairy.

I have a good enough reason to call those people “woke” instead of calling them “people who believe in a cultural approach that seeks to identify and rectify invisible social inequalities based on genetic attributes like race, sex, and sexual orientation by challenging existing power structures and implementing corrective measures. “

It’s easier.

Writing in laws that allow you to selectively take out whoever is convenient at any time is lawmaking 101.

Of course lawfare is the tool of the democrats, and not republicans, like you seem to believe.

It’s of course always possible that you are the blind one. Maybe one day you’ll grow out of it.
