    Although I have to say I am noodling this talking point that we don't go to war unless NATO is attacked. LOL. What bullshit is that? Of course we do.

    NATO started in 1949. Since then... listed more than once if we went in more than once. CIA Black ops excluded of course

    Seems like a pretty good 'ONLY' reason to pause tho. Everyone knows the game when it's proxies, but if NATO/America get directly involved in a shooting war with Russia there's real risk of increasing escalation towards nukes flying no? Putin's even made thinly vieled threats about it from the language I've seen him use.


    It feels a bit like appeasing Hitler in the 30's but the game has changed, the endgame stakes are far higher. I don't know what option I'd vote for if I had to even though I have huge sympathy of Ukraine and their sovereignty.

    Yes, agreed, but what message did we just send? Especially to the Iranians and the North Koreans.

    No nukes? Fuck you, pussy, we will fuck you up, kill your leaders, and post Instagram videos of us drinking in your blown up palaces.

    Nukes? OH! yessim, masser... please be so kind as to let me dance a tap while you fuck my wife.

    That's a good take for sure. I don't fucking know RBP, stop pickling my brain every time we argue okay?
