Now reality is using the past evolving by each generation gap used against each added great great grandchild being the 6th degree of last 5th generation gap living here now.

The cold war was used to justify coups de etat that subjected populations to brutal dictatorships.
And Russia is not a communist country - it is FAR more "fwee mawket" than most NATO countries.
The US just lost the petro dollar. These seven weeks in Brazil might be my last trip overseas. BRICS is coming up and the federal reserve dollar is going down - and there is no magician's trick that is going to stop that. Hell, we're getting dick-slapped by hooties and blowfish.
Oh, it goes WAY past that. Under Obama at least - possibly Trump, I do not know - we were performing provocative maneuvers with Romania under the pretense of "joint training exercises" - an oldie but a goodie that we also use to provoke Rocket Man (which Trump curtailed, to the salutary effect of ending the **** during his entire presidency).*Huey » 13 Jun 2024, 7:30 am » wrote: ↑ I wasn't arguing any of that.

If I walked up to you and punched my own chest while throwing a punch at you but stopping it inches from your face, you would rightly take offense. That is precisely the **** the US and various convenient junior "allies" pull when they run mock invasions and call that behavior "joint military exercises." You likely saw some of these games during your military career, yourself.
We've been wiping our dicks in EBBY BODY face for a hunnit years, and we are now at a juncture where the world is simply going to stop putting up with it. How many trillions are we in debt to the people we bully? What if they cut off our plastic?
And it may seem ungrateful that I enjoy the "blessings" of this shell game while rooting for the other team. But if you GENUINELY enumerated those "blessings," they would ring hollow against my personal values, I can promise you that. Most of those "blessings" come to **** like access to cheap slave made goods - a blessing I would happily forego to have my democratic institutions back.
Yeah, I get the chicken and the egg argument. But it's a weak argument.*Huey » 13 Jun 2024, 7:48 am » wrote: ↑ You gotta realize those games go both ways. Russia or the old USSR did the same with us. As did NK.
Your behavior mirrors eggplant's and sumela's. Great minds follow ideas life isn't self evident. A brain navigates time adapting per rotation of the planet.

Thank Toshiba for that MIC greed-over-ally ****.
It caused the US to have to reconfigure surveillance and re-learn sub signatures. Not cheap.
I'm sure NATO kicked in a lot to help maintain their security...![]()
But, it brought the Russkis up into modern times.

We could not even copy them once we had them.....Russia kept the US "up into modern times"

They needed to because they couldn't do it themselves.
And even then they didn't succeed...
