Forums - Politics Discussion - Russia and Ukraine flashpoint

I can understand the concern about escalation, but based on what I know, the major countries have been too careful and too indecisive. And by the major countries, I mean Biden and Scholz, who are ultimately responsible for their countries' stance. Of course there's a lot of other countries that could've done more too, but if the US and Germany are too indecisive, the rest can do only so much.

The Nordstream pipeline has already been cut off.  Now the pipe travelling through Ukraine will be cut as well.   Fvck you Russia! I hope that this makes your economy suffer, and that you start to hate the evil person behind this war.  Shame on your leaders for bringing the russian people into this mess.

Ohh what a surprise, Elon Musk saying on Twitter only Germany's Nazi party AfD can save Germany [...]

Yeah, we totally saw how great it turned out to let Nazis get into power in the last century. I wouldn't exactly call that saving. And in the next four years, we can't even rely on the Americans to come and liberate us, let alone the russians. So that would be quite a bad time for Nazis to get into power again.

Thankfully, AfD is at 19 percent in the polls right now. Which is sad enough, but since no other party wants to work with them, the chances of those idiots getting into the government are just about non-existant. Here's hoping it stays that way, but we definitely have to do something about the russian propaganda machine. There are way too many idiots around here that fall for all that BS. For whatever reason.

Sometimes it's hard not to get depressed when looking at the political map. People really do seem to learn nothing from history. They just keep repeating the same shit over and over again and when shit blows up, they pretend that no one could have seen it coming.

Screw Musk, screw AfD and all the other xenophobic, selfish idiots who think they can save any country by isolating it from the rest of the world and build stupid walls. It has never ever worked out in the history of mankind, not a single fucking time. How dumb can you be not to see that?

Sorry for the rant. Sometimes it gets to me.

Someone drove with his car into a christmas market in Germany. Musk says Scholz needs to step down now to get even more sympathy by everyone who hates foreigners.

I wonder how often he will ask Trump to step down after every single school shooting which will happen the next years? Or is a killed person only a problem If the killer was a muslim?

Germany's homicide rate per 100k people is 0,8 and USA's is 5,7. So I guess If Trump won't reduce USA's rate from 5,7 to something below 0,8, Musk will ask Trump to step down, right?
