Europe has been planning for this for a while now. It’s going to suck but once it’s clear the midterms are compromised, Trump can and will throw Ukraine fully under the bus, no more pretense.
It adds up to me…it’s why Putin hasn’t given up (he knows his opportunity is coming), why Trump is not acting like the midterms matter at all, why Europe has been moving to a war footing (Russia has no momentum, so there’s obviously an inflection point coming).
Is it really that hard to believe? I’ve been sure of this for well over a year (midterms being ignored/illegitimate, MAGA taking full power afterward). I really, really hope I’m wrong and will admit my ignorance if I am, but I just don’t see any other logical outcome that doesn’t involve something like a friendly coup or other black swan event
So we’re just pulling ideas directly from dystopias now?


It’s unsurprising that the US’s fingerprints are on this. Not that it’s impossible some crazy person could do this independently in other countries…but fuck. Of fucking course bro from the US was coaching. He’s from the place it was born.

Edit: Of particular relevance:
Appeasement can be seen as promoting frozen conflicts and rewarding aggression from a game-theoretical point of view.[134] If the defensive player is willing to appease, the offensive player is incentivised to create the conditions to be appeased by their opponent.


but that’s what they said!!!


I think you’re fucking with me playing dumb.
There’s no way you don’t understand, even if you don’t agree.
But if you aren’t…would you let foreign war equipment into your country from a country that had threatened to take you by force?
Obviously not.
Greenland is done unless MAGA is stopped, full stop.
Edit: I disagree with your premise that they could have gotten the same results without the threats, therefore this must be benign. At least that’s what I think you’re saying.


I can’t really explain with logic what is being misunderstood due to naivety.


Goddamn it 2 minutes in to browsing and already I see the dumbest thing I’ll see all day.


Anyone else reading this like it’s Sid Meier’s Civilization and this is just stacking military units in an “ally’s” territory before the inevitable betrayal?
I mean seriously. Come on now.


I did not have breeder fetish teleporter sexual assault on my bingo card.


For those…extra spicy…holodeck programs


This meeting has been postponed already, with no future date set.


I have no doubt they will, actually.


Who in the fuck wouldn’t?


Best way to think about it is that civilization is already broken (we broke it) and shit inevitably has to fall apart before anything better can happen.

I don’t mean it in a bad way at all, just…literally it’s autism.
