  3. It's funny US citizens complain about that a lot. But the overwhelming majority of them have no patience or interest in hearing about complaints of colonialism, postcolonialism or other present impacts of their countries political or financial or military activities in other countries. Oftentimes then it's just "Well that's business." But when business bites them, then there's something that specifically unfair about it.

  6. Crime requires being arrested. Both the rest and conviction can result from having committed violations or nothing at all. That depends significantly upon the country involved. Within the US there is ample and incontrovertible evidence that a significant amount of conviction is either false, spurious or the product of an extremely inequitable system that actively weighs in the direction of the harshest punishments for the same crime being weighed against someone due to the color of their skin, they're financial income or both.

  7. Only you wouldn't. I mean you're flat out lying. And you're welcome to move there to prove your point but you won't. No one will. No matter what kind of ridiculous shit you say on the internet, the math and the facts on the ground prove the point that no one More people want to leave there than want to live there, and more people who live there don't want to have kids.

  9.  @shastaweston  They are the reason it's bad. That was the point of the video. When you turn an entire state into God's boomer waiting room, you're going to get a concentration of a particular kind of individual. That took my home state, and turned it into a perverse episode of Archie Bunker set in 2022.

  10. Lagos is LA. Not Miami. Actually I'm not sure about that. You know what I really have to go ahead and spend some time there and figure that out. I really want to visit your country and Lagos. It sounds crazy as hell, but it's also fascinating.

  12. It's not hubris, or not just hubris, but ambition. He exists in a place where half measures and incremental improvement might as well be nothing. He has to dare greatly, and if a 100% success is out of his reach, must have goals so high that 80% still moves the needle forward. He is trying a great deal of things on a great deal of fronts, and the judgment of the success of his actions will probably take decades, but will definitely be a matter of how much time he bought his kingdom and how far his changes were able to go.

  13. You mean the same people who have been warned for months about to pull out and chose to wait until the last minute? How do you suggest the United States military kidnap American citizens that are another country of their own free will and force them to leave ahead of time?

  14. ​ @goodshipkaraboudjan there are other options for the military, separate from the OP idiotic solution for opening fire on them. They can be boarded and the crews can be arrested.

  22.  @barrywakeford1385  You can think whatever you want to Barry. Russia was the main recipient of United States dollars for titanium because they offered the cheapest price. Their actions have just placed them in a position where there are no longer the most affordable. Everyone else will accept our money just fine. Unlike rubles, dollars will still spend quite well.

  23. It strikes me that you've never been to Afghanistan.

  24.  @woodchuck003  I spent 16 years of my life in the US military (02-20) and The overwhelming majority of people who live in Afghanistan were no great fans of the Talib, an enormous amount of home have spent the last 20 years mostly in federally administered tribal area of Pakistan. But then you'd know that if you've been there. Opinions of Pashtun people in general vs Tajik, Hazara, Uzbek, Aimaq, Turkmen, Baloch, Pashai, Nuristani, Gujjar, Arab, Brahui, Qizilbash, Pamiri, Kyrgyz, or the Sadat people in general is significant, and can also change from one region to the area or one village to the area. But then you know that if you've been there. I'm glad we're gone. We lost the plot with an 18 months of being there, once Bush Jr found a new toy to play with in Iraq. At the very latest we should have left wheels up the day after around was put in bin laden. But none of that changes the fact that the overwhelming majority of Afghani women were quite happy to see the back of some of the most virulently misogynist people to ever grace this beautiful earth. And they don't miss them. That's why they're taking the literally life and death risk to protest. But you would know that if you've been there. Because we were wrong, and lost does not mean that the talib were right, good, or even welcome. Afghanistan fell because the government that we put in place was corrupt, because their military was a jobs program And very much because they are not seen and do not see themselves as a single united country. But because they have no desire to be Western does not mean they enjoy their next group of conquers, or that their culture somehow renders them all completely alien or evil or unable to be understood by us. But you'd know that, you would know all of that, if you'd been there.

  26. Your country is the opposite of a shithole, and I wish he hadn't used it as a point of comparison, but the point was to compare the relative wealth and standard of living between one County in the United States and another.

  29.  @fredericoduvel3092  I would say that you're missing the point except that you're actively refusing to engage with it. We had an agreement with another nation state to exit an area by a certain period of time. We advised all of our nationals within the country that we would be leaving within that time frame. They failed to meet that minimum time frame, and our allied state, fell the fuck apart. That doesn't change the fact that we said we were leaving. If those people had wanted out of the country, they had multiple months to do so. And the United States military has absolutely no legal ability to force United States citizens on to planes. Two kinds of American citizens remained in Afghanistan: the committed and the greedy. Some of the committed are really good people who are part of NGOs that really felt they could make a difference. I disagree with them but I do admire their convictions. Plenty of the rest were contractors chancing their asses chasing a fat paycheck. Them I have less sympathy for. And as for you, you did not give a shit about Afghanistan 8 months ago and you will not give a shit about Afghanistan 8 months from now.

  33. I mean, I get that this is a thing, but what exactly is the point? To hold China to a standard we don't at ALL hold ourselves or allies to? What is happening to the Uighurs is a genocide by every definition and a crime against humanity. Period point blank. THAT is a worthy thing to hit the PRC on. But this? Trading vaccines for foreign policy goals? That's just diplomacy. It's the exact same done by the West, by the former Soviet Union and present Russia, bu the Chinese empire of antiquity, Rome and every other powerful nation.

  34. What if that was harder than anything else humanity has tried and you asking EVERYONE else who said this didn't actually have a practicable route to this. What if the world was more complicated than your one sentence comment? What if..... Balancing acts were just part of life?

  35. Lol. Anyone who has ever ridden in Areoflot knows just how low that zenith was.

  36.  @xxxdieselyyy2  Yeah, when all of those people flew Aeroflot they agreed with me too. Comparing Soyuz and Aeroflot is like comparing the best taco in LA with taco bell. And the video was not about the Russian space agency, or the Russian military. It was about Russian civilian air capability. Which is shit, and headed in the direction of shittier.

  37. @Craig Ploetz that's what griefers do. When you can't do shit else in life, for some people the only answer is to shit on somebody who's done something significant. Someone who posts shit like this is basically carrying a sign saying "my entire life is the equivalence of a pity fuck from existence.".

  39.  @Mr.Oblivian  How so? Provide any credible evidence that this invasion is going even vaguely according to plan? Russia is unsuccessfully bullying a nation 1/4 of its size. Is Al Jazeera Western media? Because it among plenty of other non-western agencies are painting a painfully accurate picture of just how badly the Russian military is performing, and how badly they are being mauled. You are completely without any capability to support the delusional statement that this is going less than catastrophic for Russia. Even if they eventually win this war, no one wants to win like this.

It's entire purpose was directed towards destroying the West. You can think of it as a financial terrorist organization. A pretty brilliant and successful one. Samsung is "just" good, old fashioned greed.

  59. So..... How's Pakistan doing right now? "Protesting airstrikes in Panjshir, people throng Kabul streets chanting 'death to Pakistan'" -Deccan Herald. Yeah, looks like you're doing GREAT there, skippy. We lost. I own that. We had a year and a half of decent work, and 18 and 1/2 of wasting it and digging a ditch deeper. Meanwhile, your place hasn't changed much at all. That's not a compliment.

  60. @Schauss Well in that case its worse. Pakistan has consistently been a very hard country. But India has transitioned from being one of the greatest and most popular democracies to taking a hard right turn towards theocratic-racist nationalism. (I mean so has the US, but that's kinda my point.)

  61. Even if that was the only way to make electricity, (and it's obviously not there are a variety of renewable methods) Just for the value of energy saved on thermal loss and friction alone it would produce net carbon savings to have the energy be produced in one location and the electricity transported to the actual vehicle.
