Ukraine's thread on RM being longer than Russia's thread on RM is how Putin loses.

Ezra Klein had a great conversation with Fiona Hill on his podcast. Definitely worth a listen.

I was on the fuck Russia Bandwagon since 2008, and at first thought everyone else was catching on, but now I look around and wonder.

We are NGMI.

The anti-vaccine people who also support Putin, and make it into one big political issue, are absolutely deranged.

We've got Ukraine flags on overpasses in the exact spot where there were BLM signs two years ago. Public sentiment has turned hard in this direction and the level of (performative?) enthusiasm is kind of bizarre.

Where this bleeds over into demands for no fly zones and escalation is the concerning part.

I think the what about are interesting as well. Just a few days had gone by, with cities being bombed, people dying, and then you have some that only go: but what about?

Happy to hear there are Ukrainian flags around, and people supporting the people that are being attacked in this invasion.
