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

He shall lose!

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

Seriously.

And Blinken over here calling this another Leningrad Genocide and yet we do nothing the minimum.

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.

Compassion towards our fellow man means we’re not going to make it. Got it.

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

Covid really broke a lot of people's brains. It's really sad.

And maybe lawn signs aren't the best measure of anything.

You’ve got republicans cheerleading for Putin and suddenly it’s about that faucci doctor and flags on lawns ?

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.

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