Finally, the thing I’ve always wanted.

Man, what happened? Europe used to be the leaders in right-wing lunacy. What’s with Temu Trump?

Ah, libertarianism.
Something about the government’s monopoly on violence? Contracts? Personal liberty?

AI already jumped the shark when that shoe company declared they were now an AI company.

It’s difficult to be even more off-putting than Elon, but I think Alex has what it takes.

Largely agree, but the previous mobilization remains in effect.
Not sure what he could do to convince remaining military-age men to willingly jump into the meat grinder.

Respectfully disagree. Before Ukraine 2014, NATO was the answer to a question that wasn’t really relevant anymore.
Even after 2014, NATO largely shrugged and decided that because of Sevastopol, Crimea was basically Russia’s anyway.
Ukraine 2022 has seen NATO pull together arguably more than any other time in history. And Ukraine isn’t even a member.
Donald’s attempts to weaken it may have strengthened it. He’s demanding Europe raise spending and take responsibility. Great. His threats to throw Europe to the wolves are more about extracting bribes and concessions. And to an extent, justifying moving chess pieces to Iran and South America.
Even if he somehow completely pulled America out of NATO, that can be undone by the next administration. And even if it can’t, there’s nothing that says America couldn’t still come to the aid of Europe.

I’m pretty baffled by this.
The spymasters say Russia is testing NATO’s resolve. But all these tests have made NATO stronger. E.g. the invasion of Ukraine pushed Sweden and Finland to join NATO.
They also say Russia is planning something major, soon, to really drive a wedge between countries in NATO. I’m guessing it will be an immigration crisis à la Ceuta, which in the past has caused Schengen countries to reactivate border controls.
Even that has been pretty weak tea if the mission is the dismantling of NATO or the EU.
Russia has mostly succeeded in uniting its foes by being an external antagonist.

Russia can’t handle a blindsided Ukraine.
They even had the advantage of starting with Crimea, a large naval base INSIDE enemy territory, and the Kerch Bridge.
Yes.
