@Moon@awl I glance at New Yorker once in a while, when a fellow passenger in a commercial airplane reads it. I live in a liberal cesspit, so it happens sadly often. And that publication is truly insufferable.
@Moon@PG_Kelly I understand that you're joking about Trump being barred from running (in Colorado), but seriously: what kind of campaign cannot even file the paperwork? That is more important than campaigning. Even a complete idiot like Navalny was able to do it.
@olmitch Fortunately I've been married for 33 years now, so I don't care what a random dumb broad thinks. The first thing I do in a commercial airport terminal is buy their extortion priced water.
@Moon@feld It's not going to work in the world of fiat money and skyrocketing M2 of USD. You'll just get crashing economy and sky-high inflation like in Zimbabwe (or in Yeltsin's Russia and to extent in Carter's America - everyone forgot what it was like to get 13% loans for cars lol).
@Moon@trygvekalland The problem really is that Ukraine (and thus Ukrainians) are not fighting for freedom: they are carrying chestnuts out of the fire for the benefit of the global transnational elites. These elites and their evil agenda are literally enemies of common Americans, or any working people globally.
@pomstan The best part is, Moomnan had to use an alternative account to reply to Gargon, because Gargon blocks shitposter.club completely at Mastodon. You literally cannot refer to any accounts of that instance, all fetches fail. It's highly hypocritical for Gargon to say anything about "you can follow anyone regardless". Try to follow anyone from shitposter.club at Mastodon, see how that works. Ridiculous.
"As recently as April, leaked estimates from the Pentagon put Ukrainian deaths at the much lower figure of 17,500. The alleged jump to more than 70,000 can be partly explained by the counter-offensive in the south."
Have these people ever heard of Occam's razor? It's far more likely that the media, including BBC, lied to us for a year and Ukrainian losses were at least 5 times greater than reported. But now orders came from the top to change the propaganda narrative and voila.
"Overall Russia's casualties are far greater, some 120,000 dead according to the latest US estimate."
