probably not top of mind for these people...not like john kerry

say there's a REAL nazi problem...that's been growing since 2014

they're afraid of the GOV...trying to make and show major death and destruction...putting military equipment in civilian areas for targeting

again, this is from the south part of the country where they have large russian speaking population

random person's comment from a clip-

put it in the tranlate app



Tatiana Dyakova

I studied in Odessa from 1969 to 1973. We all lived together. In Odessa, the people lived better than in my small homeland in Samara, but no one envied anyone, everyone treated each other like brothers. And what now. I think the bulk of the Ukrainian people are friendly and want to live in peace with the Russians, and the Nazis must be destroyed ruthlessly. They are ruthless killers of civilians in the Donbass and now on the territory of Ukraine. I am for peace and friendship and let the people of Ukraine and not a gang of Nazis decide their own fate. Let there be friendship between peoples and of course a long and stable peace



maybe this is like our problem here with the white supremacists...or so we're told

Regarding: John Kerry ordering airdrop of solar panels.


How gullible are you guys? Seriously, do any of you think for yourselves anymore?


Global warming is obviously still a problem, but there is no way that it is a priority when people are dying and counties may fall.

And logically, you’re going to risk planes that may get shot down, and who is going to install the panels? Come on. Question the stupid shit that you’re reading.

@ISOS

Here are 4 articles from the past few days that will help you understand how big of a problem White Supremacy is in this country, including the following:


McConnell says there's 'no place' in the GOP for white supremacists after Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar appear at white nationalist event

https://www.businessinsider.com/mcconnell-no-place-gop-white-supremacists-mtg-gosar-nationalism-2022-2




Putin claimed he wanted to fight Nazis in Ukraine, but then bombs Holocaust site in Ukraine:


Russia strikes Kyiv TV tower, killing 5 and damaging Babi Yar Holocaust site

i think there is a growing issue

i admit that as soon as i see Taylor Greene talk? i turn the channel...time is too limited for that crap and she is probably crap...i don't give her 10seconds...don't know WTF that Q shit was or care to know

just because putin is bombing and killing the whole country...does NOT make the issue in the south of UKR nonexistant

he definitely came in with one arm behind his back...thought it would go different...being backed into a corner things are different for him and scary for the world

it's pretty funny...probably drafted about 5 emails to them, but decided not to hit them with MY VAST knowledge of the world and its problems...especially while bombs are blasting around them

would like to understand their situation a bit more and understand where they're coming from in this thing

i see a little irony there btw....it's all about energy.

when i watch a show...a hot girl gives me the energy to keep going with it...same with other stuff.

sent me a few pics btw

There is a growing Nazi problem in Germany, too. Of course an issue like that needs to be addressed before they grow and join forces with other fascist groups, but Putin using it as an excuse to take over a sovereign nation is laughable.

Who has killed more Ukrainians in the past 8 years, not to mention the last week: Nazis or Putin?

Putin: 14,000 for the past 8 years BEFORE the invasion
Nazis: Probably zero or close to it.

How would we react if the our neighbors like Mexico or Cuba wanted to set up arms in defense alliance with russia?

if those nations said, we want to be part of russian defense alliance.
If Cuba and Mexico said so...

Hell no, we'd say - maybe even invade if they kept pushing their agenda.


Part of understanding a conflict is the ability it to see it from other perspectives.

i am not arguing for putin in any way

just trying to have an exchange with the couple in that area...worked with them for a while so hopefully can get some good info

it might be all shit...don't know


funny, they did bring up the mex/cuba bases over here....THAT's when i go into full response mode, but shelved it all in a draft. that is a conversation a little down the line

china and russia don't need bases in our hemisphere anymore...they got smart

mildlyamusing....

Not sure if you even know why those three voted against the bill.

And I am kind of perplexed that with everything that is going on in this country, current energy issues, inflation, Russian Ukraine crisis, that the House and Senate don't have better things to do than to tie up their time to pass a bill that is addressing an issue that occurred in 1955. Have there been any recent lynching? The last documented lynching occurred 41 years ago.

GOP leaders denounce Greene, Gosar for speaking at white nationalist event


you think a person like green represents everyone else...that is always the definitive proof

again, i don't listen to her...if she became a senator...we might have an issue

BTW, you have plenty of SHIT people in congress...SHOULD we think they represent all of your views?

someone like omar from Minn represent you?

Crazy progressives hurt the Democrats like the far right hurts the GOP, but Democrats are far more center leaning than the GOP. They appeal to a lot more people, which is why Dems are frustrated with the SCOTUS situation. It doesn’t reflect the interests of a majority of society now.

And you guys don’t remember that there was a lynching in California recently? It was all over the news? Have you been to the Deep South? It’s fucking scary.

scotus numbers will swing back at some point

it seems like everyone the left nominates stays true to the left and further...people nominated from the right drift to the left and keep things semi moderate/left-leaning

maybe the two senators will capitulate and they can change the rules scotus, add a few states...the left wouldn't need to complain again

political winds and threats definitely have their influence...the court has been on eggshells...that alone is worth a couple of judge votes each case.

Idiot being an idiot. ^
Almost every poll done by just about every pollster of the genpop (not just Dems or Reps) shows Americans are fairly conservative and don't like a lot of boat-rocking from either direction.

Center Dems/Center Reps are by far the biggest % of the genpop
Far left Dems represent about 7% of the Dems, yet are running Joe's show
Part of the reason his poll numbers have tanked
If he moved center like Clinton did, he could still have a shot at saving his Congressional colleagues from getting run over in the mid-terms.
Right now, it doesn't appear that he's making that move
If not, they will get creamed come November as Independents are running away from Joe, basically leaving his core of about 35% that will vote for a D no matter what.
Kinda like the 35% that seem to like Trump, no matter how far down his throat he shoves his foot.

While everyone believes he is a moron ... I don't think anyone believes he would airdrop solar panels in a war zone. But he is stupid enough to opine about the disastrous effects this war will have on the environment.... yeahhhhh no shot Sherlock. How fucking stupid do you have to be to talk about carbon footprints to a population that is having war waged on them. But yeahhhh .... go your team.
