How would they talk? They speak different languages and there weren't subtitles back then.

It's not "their playground". Besides the fact that the South China Sea is a crucial international trade route (and thus shouldn't "belong" to anyone), it is also bordered by many nations other than China, like Vietnam, Taiwan and the Philippines. And these nations are very bothered by the way China is using its size to bully them out of their own coastline. That is why Canada is there, to prevent China from dominating the smaller states. Obviously NATO has more than one goal in the region, but they are not uninvited guests and, in a world as globalized as ours, the South China Sea might as well be Canada's playground.

I don't like being painted as someone who is told what to think. I do not think the Ukraine war is a "good one", there are no "good" wars. I simply empathize more with the victims of imperialism and not the perpetrators of imperialism.

Wow dude, this little number you've written here has so many logical fallacies and projections.

First of all, in no way am I defending the US invasions of the Middle East. Shit was bad and unnecessary.

Second of all, Russians are absolutely bombing hospitals and buildings full of children. They bombed a building in Mariupol that was used to house children and had that written on the roof. I'm also worried that they're kidnapping children and robbing them of their Ukranian identity.

I think the war should continue for as long as Ukrainians are willing to fight. And not because I'm a cartoon villain that wants them all to die; I think any deal with Russia's mafia leadership isn't worth the paper it's printed on. The Russians have already stomped all over the Budapest memorandum that guaranteed Ukraine's territorial sovereignty, why would they honor any other deal? At best the Russians would use the peacetime to resupply and rearm and try again later.

Well the Russians have been stealing Ukranian children and forcibly adopting them into Russian families to rob them of their national identity. They've been bombing civilian population centers and infrastructure. Putin put out this silly speech in which he claims that Ukrainians are just confused Russians and that's why they need to come back into the fold (and just let their country and identity be destroyed). Lotsa proof there. I think the fact you haven't found any and are still asking belies your biases (you're probably another fucking Kremlin stooge).

I have not cheered for anything. I regret this situation as much as anyone. I simply think that it's plain silly to capitulate to a mafia state that kidnaps and "re-educates" your children, bombs your hospitals and schools, massacres your villages and whose leaders have openly questioned the need for a Ukranian identity. I also think it's quite telling that these "peace appeals" are only made to Ukraine, even though it takes two to tango and Ukraine isn't the one trespassing.

The intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. Russia is doing that to Ukraine.

[-] lesseva96@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

Yeah they should just submit to a genocidal invader! That's WAY better than dying!

[-] lesseva96@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah I saw that and it immediately discredited the rest of the article. You can't cry about US imperialism while handwaving Russian imperialism.

He's not just a 30 year old lol. He's one of the best Premier League strikers of all time. If they don't buy him, odds are he'll stay in the Prem to chase after Shearer's record. I hear United are looking for a striker...
