@tribalismblindsthembutnoty124 Sure: the kind of job your uncle Guido gets for you on the union construction job, that you don't have to show up for and split the paycheck with him. Also the kind of job you get when your union has negotiated the security of jobs that no longer exist, like the clowns that use to get paid at Bethlehem Steel for doing things that no longer needed doing due to tech advances, but that the company could not get rid of because of union negotiations. Does anybody know why it is stupid to ask if anyone knows something when nobody can respond then says "No? Didn't think so." . . . -- No? Didn't think so.

How to explain Russian inexplicable behavior? Firstly you must pretend that you are not dealing with a nation as you expect them to be in the west. It is best if you imagine that you are dealing with a mob of drunk teenagers who have been left a pile of weapons and deadly toys to play with, and like to dress up like actual government officials and service men. But really they just want to drink and everything else is a side gig. Then most of their decisions will make sense. Then it is always important to understand the form of Russian humor. Take irony for instance. The Russian form of ironic humor is to accuse other countries of doing what they themselves are trying to cover up or hide. This is important because you can tell exactly what they are doing by just adding up whatever they are accusing others of doing. Then there is the map delusion. Don't get me wrong Russia has a huge amount of useless land, BUT Russia is not nearly as large relative to other countries as it appears on the map. This is because of the type of projection that is commonly used to transfer the outlines of countries from a sphere onto a plane. There are websites like Real Size, which allow you to superimpose the outlines of one country onto another. Soon as Russia is moved toward the equator it shrivels like a dick in an ice bath. Same thing happens to Canada and Alaska, but they didn't let the false sense of enormity inflate their puddin' heads like Putin did. Russia hates LBGTQand whatever, but all the hottest trannies on the internet are Russian. Go figure. . . . One or two of them even look like a young Vlad (or so I am told ;))

@SignalCorps1 Wrong! The lesson from WW1 is that GB and the USA should never have got involved. Then Germany would have won when the Russian Revolution broke out, and Europe would have ended up quite like the EU is today. No WW2, no concentration camps, no Hitler, and no iron curtain falling across eastern Europe for fifty odd years. But we couldn't have that because the British used mobilization as a an excuse to stop the Germans from building a railroad from central Europe into the Middle East oil fields. The public in the USA was manipulated from an antiwar stance to pro-war to the point of lynching Germans in the streets by the first use of subconscious motivation techniques by Sigmund Freud's nephew, Edward Bernays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnPmg0R1M04&t=2751s
