i don’t think there’s much trump can do force a split between them and the point of my example is to make it clear that the leadership is too heavily inculcated in their world views to benefit russia’s position in the future.

a split will be fostered from within and by a decrepit leadership that still has its eyes firmly glued to the west.

am i missing a link to the video somehow?

problem is their western-academia-brain-poisoned leadership has been slow to recognize how essential it is + how little western countries will compromise on their mission to undevelop & privatize the natural resources of every global south country & keep their trade links linear

this is the reason why i would expect another sino-soviet split.

the american version of this is manifested by trump’s ascendency enabled in large part by gen-z’s noted willingness to “checkout out” of the system, but too many are still inculcated by american style politics and propaganda to keep the system going anyways; hence aesthetics-only displays like the no kings marches.

ie: plenty of people know better, but the ones who do are not in control.

this has been me for the last six months updating ansible playbooks written by people that no one remembers because of problems documented by managers that no one also remembers because they all quit 10ish years ago due to the shit pay. lol

i wonder if trump sees nato as dead weight since most of it’s members didn’t bother with defense spending as much as the united states does.

either that or spain has to do a balancing act between criticizing fascists/genociders and ensuring that those fascists/genociders don’t foster political violence for spaniards… again.

While the shift is small, it could help scientists understand how the poles will move if major glaciers and ice sheets melt due to climate change

understanding the effect upon the glaciers seems to be their goal.

i guess it’s just another example of people not bothering to look beneath the surface of a soundbite or slogan that sounds good.

i wonder the same thing myself. lol

dang! got me/you there. i didn’t know i/you was that smart. lol

i was going to say this.

are you me? lol

the most galling thing about this is that most will continue to insist that we’re still following the rules based world order.

this is especially heinous knowing that a good portion of ice agents are brown and black people.

i wonder if something like this would ever happen given that the united states is practically un-invadeable compared to germany with the 2 biggest oceans on opposite sides that include an american dominated navy along with 2 buffer states to the north and south that are economically and politically dominated by the united states.

were germany in the same geographic spot and had the same economic and military dominance; the 3rd reich would still be a thing.

Given the vast Western funding flowing through Ukraine’s security apparatus, violent infighting over control of resources has become increasingly common.

it’s strange to image that mafia style hits are taking place during a war, but i suppose it makes sense given how much money is flowing into ukraine from europe and the united states.

this happens a lot when i have to use the shift for control key.

im a linux user, so the control key hits me particularly hard.

i hope she does; she’s so well spoken and accomplished.

i also hope that she’s rich and well connected enough so that she can continue her work and afford a decent living.

do you buy directly from tongeng? i was always under they assumption that they didn’t sell to individuals.

mine’s on its last legs since i’m such a klutz w it; but it’s a trooper like my tuxedo was.

i’m referring to its notoriety, not its origin.
