      This is a shitposting community. Consider a revision with some joke about Navy SEAL sodomite harems or fanfiction about Yamato or sumthin. I know everybody is traumatized, but we still have rule #10, which mods interpret pretty generously.

    Fuck whoever thought it was a good idea to use Ukraine to “slowly grind down” russia. Fuck them forever for treating the Ukrainian people like they were disposable

        I was struggling to find a reply, but you all covered it. Fuck Putin with a rusty school bus axle. He has cancer, help him on his way to the inevitable.

          I am not happy we didn’t support Ukraine more.

          But putin sabotaged our democracy by supporting the worst trash among us.

          And everyone said that’s exactly what he would do beforehand.

          Fucking worthless animals voting out of spite.

            This is a humorous shitposting asylum, run by the wacky inmates. This is not a place for seriouspolitics. I have been gently reminding people of this all day. Can everyone please pull back on the Despair of the Day, bottle it up tightly inside and just…shitpost, shitmeme or shitcomment while you’re here. Please. That’s the tottering crayon tower on which NCD was built. This is not the place for discussing politics seriously. Thank you.

        I think they’re saying Ukraine should have been given everything they needed to win the war quickly from the start. A lot of people believe the “slow trickle” of aid was designed to drag the war on.

        The argument is that a long war is far more damaging to russia, whereas a losing a short war leaves them in a better position to recover and try again in the near future – beating russia to a bloody pulp vs giving it a black eye.

          Ah. Well, a short victory, I think, would have been a decisive blow to Russia. I think that could even have lead to a regime-change. I definitely don’t like the idea that so many people should suffer to weaken the enemy. Giving Ukraine much more to begin with would have showed Russia not to fuck with its neighbours. If that’s what the original commenter meant, I definitely understand their point of view.

    Does he even need to send them anything? Doesn’t he just have to say a few words to give Ukraine permission to build their own? Although I guess if they lose US support, they wouldn’t need permission anymore.

      Making a nuke is pretty difficult, even for a whole nation. It would probably take years for them to develop a nuke if they started from scratch.

        Well, they ain’t starting from scratch, cause they designed a bunch of nukes for the USSR.

        They almost certainly have workable designs in a file drawer, and the old facilities are all in Ukraine too. It’s a question of how much decommissioning those got in the nineties, and how long it takes to enrich the uranium.

      He already did, it’s right there in the Bible:

      Genesis 6:9
      “And Bidens said, ‘Let there be light’. Then he slapped on his Aviators, took a sweet slide over the hood, and hopped in his 1967 Stingray and drove off into the sunset.”

    hmm unfortunately for this plan everything nuclear is a bit more difficult for the President to do willy nilly.

    less dangerous but more funny would be for him to resign and let Harris be the 47th President. you know Trump and his cult have plowed millions into “47” merch that would suddenly become worthless to them.

    (there are a lot of things that he can do that SCOTUS has preemptively granted him immunity for, though…)

      Biden is actually in the trolley problem. He can either save many and go to hell (he’s Catholic) or he can let the many die. I don’t envy him.

      No, His followers have plowed millions into it and Trump received those millions.

      So while funny, you just have Trump get millions more for his “48” merch.

    I saw another funny post saying he should abdicate now so that Kamala Harris is President 47 and Trump has to scrap a bunch of Merchandise.
