The problem is - we don't want to be buffer / neutral / demilitarized zone. Not when we have a neighbour who readily "intervenes". I know USA are not saints but if their trigger-happines can help protect us from an invasion - so be it. It's our interest. Elon is just a dreamer. To make an... |

I think what your all referring to is a neutral zone. Countries in the neutral zone don’t belong to a military block and have no foreign military bases on them. Sounds a perfectly sane and good idea but many E European countries have an ancient hatred ( justified ) to Russia and they use the US who ... |

I suppose the Ukraine war can be summed up as an idiot trying to fix the problems left by a bigger idiot (yeltsin), using idiotic means |

UK must be a scary place to live for people on the spectrum. I would hate to get locked up if I had a mental breakdown and had no family aupport. I wonder if you just need a simple diagnosis to be locked up. Not quite locking up all mental health patients. As far as I’m aware it’s those considered ... |

The sanctions were on the European side
There were demonstrations that week in Germany wanting nord stream 2 to be switched on.
Some say the US did it to take that option off the table, Biden did actually say he’ll make sure NS2 is never switched on regardless earlier this year. |

It’s always been this way, in the Middle Ages witch hunters targeted the women who didn’t fit in saying they were in league with satan then burning them alive. In year 2000 in Britain peado fear hit a high after a little girl sarah paine was murdered. Vigilante groups on housing estates here went ou... |

I don't know why I bother talking to Poles about this, I've yet to meet one who can think straight when it comes to Russia. Isn't it pretty arrogant on your side? What is "thinking straight" in your opinion? Denying the enormous corruption, tyrany and absurd of the "Russian World&quo... |

All insane stuff from Russia unfortunatly
Ukraine could in theory call Putin`s bluff & let those 4 areas + Crimea go & quickly join NATO as they would officially no longer have disputed borders.
Although that`s unlikely |

^ Is this the website of this guy? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Unz Quite a record of "interesting" conspiracies. This war is between Russia and Ukraine, not between USA and Germany, if anyone did not notice it. USA takes a clear side, Germany is torn between economical self-interest... |

Russia’s greatest weakness is it’s leadership style. Rather than creating a leader of a party around a political class that offers continuity in the long term. They favor the old fashioned strong king type, so when the king dies and is replaced by another strong king he may do something very differe... |

Since religion has been in steep decline in the west it’s not going to return without some major supernatural event preceding it.
There’s more chance of the Nazi’s returning if you had to put odds on it. |

I'm sorry but I'm really struggling to understand how financially bolstering people who are already financially well off can have much or any impact on the economy. And even more to the point how can it make any difference or be any benefit to people who pay very little in tax. Can anyone help me w... |

Wouldn’t recommend marijuana. Made me intensely paranoid and anxious. I would even go so far as occasionally psychotic, I actually heard voices that were not there but fortunately never became delusional with it like in schizophrenia. Everyone has to do what works for them I suppose but think if you... |

Not specifically autism rather those with atypical brains and suffering from mental illness/ disability in general. The problem as always is there is an element of truth in that the worst people in a society i.e peadophiles, serial killers , child killers and active shooters all tend to have atypica... |
