re: #71 HappyWarrior

Conservatives and Know-Nothings I know are constantly complaining about how no one respects us or likes us in the world. Trump has abandoned and indeed even attacked two key geopolitical allies in the Kurds and Ukrainians.

Funny, I thought that we were just now finally getting respected and loved because we have a “real leader” running things now, unlike when Obama made us a laughing stock. it’s so hard to keep up with the narrative sometimes. Which is it, are we just now getting treated seriously again, or do countries just hate us to hate us and prove why we should care only about ourselves?

re: #73 HappyWarrior

Do the fuck morons not fucking realize that Russia taking Ukraine is bad for us and our interests in Europe? But I guess Trump getting trashy hotels in Moscow where they can party is more important than a democratic ally in a crucial place.

It’s not about our interests as a country. It’s about their interests in an ideologically and ethnically pure ‘movement’. Putin represents the purity of right-wing white power internationally.
