Goddamnit. What the actual hell. What right do we have to any other sovereign nation's stuff. It's beyond sickening that this country is blatantly going down this imperialistic transactional pathway. Unethical. Morally wrong. Absolutely shameless.

I SIDE WITH EUROPE. FUCK TRUMP. FUCK PUTIN. FUCK MUSK. FUCK EACH AND EVERY REPUBLICAN. FUCK EACH AND EVERY TRUMP SUPPORTER DEPLORABLE MOTHER FUCKER.

That's true, but obsession with natural resources is 100% a Trump hallmark: He thinks we *should* take the oil from countries we invade!

At least GWB had the decency to not say it out loud

deboraho.bsky.social•29 days ago

Trump said it himself.

This administration is repulsive. European leaders must step up and protect Ukraine. **Because it is the right thing to do.**

This also includes a large swathe of Democrats who seem to see the conflict not as a fight against imperialist fascism, but as a chance for the US to expand its influence at the expense of the "Russian commies."

He should have set it on fire. 😡

I for one would not be spending my entire political capital repeatedly angering the angriest people in Europe.

parkerkosticak.bsky.social•29 days ago

They’ve angered every powerful group in the US so why stop. What could go wrong?

You are dealing with a nation that has spent the last three years defying apocalypse. You are lucky they are still being polite.

zelenskyy has nerves of steel and impeccable acting chops, the way he gets thru this bullshit without punching anyone or spitting in their faces.

"We had nukes once and the country that promised to cover us in return for giving them up first tried to extort us, then slow-walked aid for four years to just bleed our oppressor dry rather than let us win a fight for survival, and now are trying to seize our resources while we die" is the origin>

escapedexplorer.bsky.social•29 days ago

>story for all kinds of actions and reprisals all around the world without paying heed to borders or anything, all of which will come attached with a "also, we restarted a domestic nuke program two years ago" note pinned to the wreckage, and they would all still be being *entirely reasonable*.

I remember when Trump backstabbed the Kurds after theyd fought and bled and died against ISIL, Assad, and some of the worst monsters we'd seen at that point and thinking "if a Kurdish radical does something to us in the next ten years I don't think we can entirely blame him for it alone". Now this.

America on the world stage is going to be viewed the same way Americans view the cops at Uvalde; an entity that swings its might around all the time with impunity when it wants but when the ACTUAL ONE job they had accepted as precondition for their monopoly on power came up, they were cowards.

Fwiw my "someone could do something very funny if Putin visits the US" post was directed toward HUR

mellaggan.bsky.social•29 days ago

there has been an increase in aviation 'hazards' recently, would be a real shame if it continued during that day

Wait are you implying that Europe isn't just France and Germany? That there are EU countries further east, and that their opinions matter? Because that's apparently news to many.

enigmasystem03.bsky.social•29 days ago

Okay, but even France and Germany are probably mightily pissed off over this, if only because it means they'll have to step up to the plate in ways they didn't really want to.

themjl.bsky.social•29 days ago

the notion of someone being motivated by concepts like "Honor", "Duty", "Service", etc is so foreign to the GOP mind that it's a major blind spot at this point...

azery.bsky.social•29 days ago

the GOP prays at the alter of Moloch. Anything resembling virtue or good values is anti-thetical to them

publicaardvark.bsky.social•29 days ago

I’m astounded beyond words. For whatever it’s worth, I’m so fucking sorry my country is doing this to your people.

saphroniayoung.bsky.social•24 days ago

More sad and distressing than I have words to express.
