True story: I was washing down my drive way yesterday and there was a small lizard surfing the waves. I thought can't be, but it would run back for another surf run where I hosed.

They only took chernobyl as the contamination there leads itself to dirty bomb production by a citizen resistance or desperate (losing) military later on. Its a simple tactical move I dunno why the media are making so much of it.

I'm not seeing many of the hairy smelly types from the COVID protests, the whale protests, the forest protests etc ......? Whole bunch of Ukrainian ex-pats protested in australia, a nice mum n dad gathering.
I mean, the cops arrested a bloke in Perth for not wearing a mask at his business and there was 10,000 frothing comments on FB and protests and vitriolic comments abut nazi police etc etc - within hours.
Not seeing the same crew protesting this immense violent action? Oh thats right, communism is something to aim for, isn't it hairy lefties...?



I think your comments on communism WRT Russia are outdated by 30 years at least.

Is there anywhere in this world today that has communism?

Cuba is still doing its best. Exporting quality medical personnel around the 3rd world. They managed to make their own ***** vaccines and have controlled the ********* a lot better than most places.

Yes, thankfully. University educated people who are taught to research something and have an editor fact-checking, and are regulated by ACMA.

Yes they have their own slant, but I'd rather the MSM than listening to some ranting idiot on Yoochoob who makes such basic errors that you can't possibly take them seriously.

Silly bear, communism has never been tried anywhere.

Can someone explain how I'm supposed to feel this whole thing? Ukraine secedes from Russia (yay!), a couple of states secede from Ukraine (silence), Ukraine spends nearly a decade waging a war on the separatists (deafening silence), Russia recognizes the independence of the states (murmurs) and then invades what was most recently its own state (outraged noises).

Say, wasn't the Ukraine where Obama stuck his nose into internal politics because "corruption", and Biden's drug-addled kid was on the board of a Ukrainian oil company?

That was what I was thinking, but didnt want to insult you, especially since my original post wasnt aimed at you and the sleepy faces were because the attempted insults are
Chill dude.

Anyways, back on topic,
hopefully the Russian rebel against Pootin and assassinate the crazy bastard. He's still living back in the 1900's
How old mate in the car run over by the tank survived is the luckiest escape ever.

Aw gee thanks. And it'd be so out of character for you to be a trolling simpleton.

Which Russian rebel are you fantasizing about?

Since nuclear war is still very , very remote but still realistic possibility
there is time for all interested parties
to arrange a seat one day by very big table and
make arrangement in advance.
Lets assume that time of MAD day comes ,
which countries would like to participate and
who abstain and remain neutral in nuclear exchange.

Lets assume that all stockpile of nuclear warheads is going to be released onto interested in
exchange parties.

Some may prefer to remain neutral in hope to survive.
For example Switzerland. Gold will survive in deep vaults, but radioactive fallout? that another story.
New Zealand with old known antinuclear stance may have the greatest chance to survive. Scenario of MAD is highly hypothetical , abstract and impossible to imagine in real life,
but anyway some arrangements should be made in advance , in order to avoid surprises.
Countries now begging to deposit nuclear missiles on their land ,may think twice, as only those in possession or belonging to pacts will be subject to MAD.
Those non associated may be spared and hopefully repopulate Earth.

clock is ticking,

thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/current-time/

100 second could be still plenty for things you still want to do before Armageddon happen.

What would you do in your last 100 second since the world till exist before Armageddon ?

( for most its may depend how far the nearest toilet is )

They made a good, solid effort over four years to fact-check that one for the tax-payers, though.

There are currently far more than one million serving men in the Russian Military.
200 or so Ukrainians die and everyone's crying war.
That's not a war, that's a warning.

^^^^ that one a fact-checked / based on solid research too Doc? That's the crap I'm talking about.
nice pic, might be true, might not be but its not informative.

As for the Ghost of Kyiv story - it started on social media so you prove my point. Not the US media claiming it at all. Reporting claims made by people does not mean the media started the story, get it?
Further, propaganda by Govts engaged in conflict? Wow that would be rare. Haha

Watch out for the dihydrogen monoxide the Govt is forcing us to take.

Oh yes of course the Russian dictator is not evil, he's just misunderstood. He's really a nice dictator with an image problem in the Western media

i keep forgetting that we're trying to talk logic with people who have themselves injected with an experimental gene therapy (x3) and sign consent waivers giving their rights away because their government loves them.

Yes, but it's been picked up and presented in prestigious terms by the media, and yes the US media too -- with caveats that reports were "unconfirmed"... because we all know how much attention people pay to such caveats.

Watching MSN flip-flop about has been entertaining.
