Peace offer:

I receive: your land

You receive: I stop trying to kill you (for now)

I can't believe the only reason they're not accepting this deal so graciously offered by Russia is the US stopping them

The west sure did buy a FUCKTON of oil from the Soviet Union for people who were apparently trying to bankrupt them since 1917

In fact the US is so NOT a member of the ICC that it's currently federal law that if a US soldier was being held at the Hague, the US military would be obligated to invade The Netherlands in order to recover them

Correct, the entire concept of physically backed digital lending is being threatened, and many physical libraries contracted with IA to digitize their books and then facilitate digitally lending their physical copies to their patrons

Yes it predates the country

It seems you have read a book in the last 2 hours, I'm glad we're in agreement that it doesn't involve the US then

Good thing we have this expert history book reader to tell us that the first thing the UNITED STATES did wrong was import slaves into the ENGLISH COLONY of Virginia in 1619

Sorry sweaty, but saying anything bad about authoritarian governments (aside from Israel) is xenophobia, you're clearly just suffering from transnationalism and were born in the wrong country

The founders were entirely aware that not only an entire party, but the entire government could become irrational and work against our best interests: that's why we have the second amendment as a backstop and last line of defense against authoritarian rule

The nature of democracy not being a system that relies purely on violence for legitimacy (unlike authoritarian forms of government) means that it is a constant forever war against the lapping waves of fascism attempting to slowly erode away our democratic institutions (because we, thankfully, don't just use violence to immediately silence dissidents)

I think an entire generation of people raised in the peace dividend have forgotten this fact, figured that democracy is the natural course of things, ignored its badly needed maintenance, and are swiftly being reminded of it now that the damage is so readily apparent
