Why do they have to be 20-28 years old unless you have other motives? Can a 32 year old not clean a house as well?
It’s the OT. One has to add in sarcasm. Yes a 32 year old can clean house.

I figured so, but don't act like you're an idiot and there wasn't anything sexual implied there
I disagree with you quite often and think you're unstable, but not stupid

It’s the OT, of course there is a sexual innuendo. However, that doesn’t mean that I was suggesting that we swap F16s for prostitutes.

That’s a compliment coming from you.

Sorry.
NATO is the most powerful military alliance on the planet.
OF COURSE IT'S A THREAT!
Hence the design of peace through inherent M.A.D. associated with both NATO, and its chief adversary ....... Russia.

Now Finland and Sweden are in NATO. That didn’t improve Russia’s position.
Re: Ukraine will be a Russian nemesis forever. ..... "Forever" is a long, long, long time. When we finally turn our backs on the corrupted, money-laundering, cesspool that is Ukraine, who are they going to turn to, or be turned to? I'm sorry that dose of "Ugly American" reality doesn't fit with your Goldilocks, Suger Plum Fairy view. But Politicians being political, and Ukraine being far from politically or economically pristine, the odds favor debilitating Russo animus less than you seem to imagine.

NATO is a defensive alliance that had grown bigger and stronger because nations ASK to join. NATO doesn’t invade and conquer their neighbors.
NATO rejected Russia, remember. They don’t want Russia, they just want to be protected from Russia. Russia doesn’t need to defend themselves from NATO.
Russia invaded Chechnya. No response from the west. The same with Georgia. The same with Crimea. Why would they fear NATO now?
NATO is just an excuse like the bio labs, the Nazis and the other BS excuses Russian propaganda outlets invented.
I’m surprised you fell for their BS.

You really should stop with the nonsense. Because, like usual, we have documentary evidence from Russia itself that says you are completely wrong.

Brah, your view of everything can be boiled down to 'Muh America bad!' The Iraq War and other events clearly broke your ability to think clearly about things. You spout counterfactual information with no regard for what is and what isn't fact. It is deranged.

Nah that's an accurate description with your faculty for geopolitics. Your obsessed with a very specific viewpoint and nothing, certainly not Russian agency, can seem to inform it. It's a plagued way of looking at the world.

When Russia was a partner with NATO in the early 2000's it was shocked to discover zero wargaming to invade Russia.

I talk about subjects I know well and I've been using this forum to talk about the same subjects for more than a decade. And way to continue to never answer anything substantively.

You repeatedly deny Russia agency in every description of events. It is functionally insane, as at no point do you ever suggest that the Russians could have chosen this path for themselves. They weren't helpless victims in all this. The facts of history bear this out and have borne this out over and over. And when you are completely wrong, such as in the aforementioned post where you said the Russians could not care less about the Nordics, you show a complete lack of curiosity. The consistent theme of your posts has been to deny Russian agency (or rather, to treat every Russian faction as though each and every one of them were earnest about rapprochement with the West, which isn’t true) which gives a very particular impression.

You were completely wrong about Covid and everything is pointing to being wrong about Ukraine.
That’s ok though.

Nah, I definitely wasn't. Link me to any of my posts and we can discuss it. But I was completely right about the vaccine design, as well as why the disease control strategy chosen was the opposite one that we should have employed. Everything that I've seen in the hospital since has reinforced most of my views on COVID, especially that there is an immune-mediated component to it not unlike things like like autoimmune HLA associated disorders.

What were my predictions about Ukraine? Link them for me. Because I've said the same things since the war began, which I summarized for you earlier.
