Nah but you won't deal with it. Conservatism has devolved into nihilism with a cult leader who believes in nothing.

Tell me how clearing Ukraine off the books results in conservatives springing to action on domestic issues?

Oh nope. They're still saboteurs whether or not we send Patriot missiles to UA.

One of the tragedies of GWB's gratuitous "war on terror" is that it's destroyed some people's sense of what's a worthy engagement and what isn't.

Sovereign invasions of neighbor states qualifies in my opinion. They're extreme, rare, and require attention.

I can't imagine the confusion you must have in your life if that is on the same or lower level as WMD goose chases.

Saboteur now, upgrade city.




It’s as if you young knights of lofty principles don’t know what lying dead means. Or if you do, like those already interred for this insanity, just can’t wait to checkin with St. Pete.

We just had our fourth democracy in the Sahel lost to a military coup (led by foreign military officers WE TRAINED- but that's another story). Not only that, the ungrateful junta b@stards are kicking us out - forcing us to leave a couple of airbases after we dumped half a billion dollars into building them. Worse yet, they are letting the Russians use the bases WE BUILT. Does this meet your criteria for intervention?

Like I said. Sovereign invasions. Not coups. Not civil wars.

Whataboutism is so unbecoming.

its interesting that this russian bot will still not acknowledge the difference between local conflicts and events that can actually shift geopolitics that at least 4 people have attempted to convey.

i think its cause it cannot remember, and just acts in single target track with its mission/obsession.

its on purpose. The bot straight lies, deflects, misrepresents consciously. Thus it is not worth engaging. You will never get it to acknowledge any point but its own as its obsession has consumed it fully.

treat it like the bot it is imho. Or get endorphins by watching it flounder ……both are fun
