yeah, they sure as hell did. lots of debate about that too. the justification was the rivalry with the Soviet union with the advent of nukes and the missiles capable of carrying them. space program benefitted too but that wasn’t the main thrust at that time. Russians did the same thing and...

yeah I’ve heard of it and have been to the town in europe where the scientists were staged prior to coming to the US. but help me out with what you’re asking in your post. Thx.

the unofficial social contract that Putin has with his populace is basically they don’t ask questions and he’ll take care of the rest. which he has, the standard of living rose significantly for Russians once he pulled the country out of the rough spot it was in after the fall of the Soviet...

yeah it was the right move but it proves the point that they can’t disclose the issue behind it if they want to stay employed. which is completely understandable.

Yeah man, I agree with you. All that old quote means is, is it’s not up to you whether or not war fucks with you. here’s another example: all those MAMs(military age males) that fled Russia at the start of the war, up until that point were going about their daily lives. Suddenly a war starts...

I think they just have to keep silent publicly and toe the company line. the whole chain case thing and the mystery surrounding the constant posts/vids about proper chain tension is a case in point.

interesting. how is an ambassador going to tell the truth if they want to keep their job?

congrats on getting it covered and if there was a winter to be forced off a sled for 6wks, it’s this one.

any of you nazi hatin folks think about going to fight for Russia? You’ll get citizenship.

yes.

there’s no side to it nor is it an argument. those Russian conscripts forced to fight. i can all but guarantee they’d rather be anywhere else and yet there they are. illustrates the point perfectly.

can be equally damaging but not always. war always is damaging and can affect you regardless of having skin in the game or not. this war is a case in point. it’s going on thousands of miles away and tax dollars are being spent so it affects people far more than the ones pulling the triggers...

war is uniquely destructive.

means war affects everybody regardless of what your interest level is. it’s from the Russian, Leon Trotsky.

as the saying goes… you may have no interest in war but war always has an interest in you.

no you don’t. You’re constantly on here as am i.

if I remember correctly Boris was the main one saying no peace deal whatsoever.

he’s well know in military circles and again, he’s not a journalist so he never was on the list for any interview. the only one ever on any list was tucker for obvious reasons. he didn’t ask any real questions like how the war is a disaster and that week long military operation is now years...

that dork is well known and is also not a journalist. Tucker was allowed to do the interview because he’s sympathetic to Russia or is at least against aiding Ukraine. no mystery there.
