"My opponent could simply quit for no reason" is not a good argument, yet we're seeing it more and more

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 50 points 5 months ago

They have been so used to getting everything they want for so long that they are unable to imagine a situation that doesn't resolve in them getting their maximalist demands fulfilled.

Trade? That's when I get to plunder the world for free.

Diplomacy? That's when I tell people what I want and they give it to me.

War? That's when we bomb someone back to the stone age without even getting a dent in our multi-billion dollar death machines.

If this interview is actually his understanding of what's happening in ukraine right now it explains a lot. He must just be surrounded by sycophants

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 57 points 5 months ago

It's been pretty obvious that the whole admin is one big echo chamber. Anybody who expresses opinions that don't conform to the prevailing dogma is immediately ejected.

Same mindset. Browse neoliberal subreddits and that’s more or less what the opinion in Washington is.

Having at least moderate age appropriate cognitive decline in a person who has had several strokes is a factor as well

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 23 points 5 months ago

Suggesting that an octogenarian who has suffered several strokes may be experiencing age related cognitive issues? Sounds like RUZZIA BOT SPAM to me

Hamas is acting in self defense. There is absolutely nothing they could do to end the genocide at this point. They've offered countless peace deals where Israel could get the hostages back, but Israel doesn't want hostages, they want the land.

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 31 points 5 months ago

Seriously, on October 7th my support for Hamas was critical but over the months following that support has turned into uncritical support

Dude's brain is swiss cheese. I keep noticing all these turns where he loses his thought and has to correct himself over and over and doesn't remember things like the warsaw pact.

I want to switch to Israel. But on that last point, is there a danger that NATO is on a slippery slope to war with Ukraine—with Russia, as things stand?

Biden: No, we're on a slippery slope for war if we don't do something about Ukraine. It’s just not gonna…anyway…

Love to be in a country where the ghouls running it are more likely to die in office of natural causes than they are to face any sort of meaningful consequences for the horrors they have wrought upon the world.

The magic word is "please"?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 41 points 5 months ago

I also love this bit bragging how Europe spends more money on fighting Russia than US

And in the meantime, what happened was, we were able to—and by the way, we spent a lot of money in Ukraine, but Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively. Europe has spent more money than the United States has, collectively Europe has spent more money in taking on Russia.

is that even true? if it's not that makes this funnier

Maybe he's factoring in all the money Germany lost as the war tanked its industrial sector.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 20 points 5 months ago

It's pretty clear that it's not given that Israel has rejected US proposed ceasefire deal.

Biden: I can do it better than anybody you know. You’re looking at me, I can take you too.

And guess what they're, you know, they're, they’re…what they call it? Going around the world? The Belt and Road initiative? It's become a nuisance graveyard initiative. I'm serious. Think about it. I've been saying this for three years, and you guys write, “No, China’s on the right—China’s gonna break through.” Where are they, where are they breaking through? And look what's happening in Africa.

We are much stronger in the Pacific than we ever were before. China, by the way, China is very concerned about it. They asked me—I’ve spent more time with Xi Jinping than any leader in the world, over 90 hours alone with him since I've been Vice President. And we have a very candid relationship.

You know, I don't have any (unintelligible) He wanted to know why I was doing all these things. I said the simple reason I’m doing those things: to make sure that you don’t, that you aren’t able to change the status quo any.

"I don't know why you wouldnt write about that, the Russian army had been decimated."

Shut the fuck up old man.

People talk about how republicans insist on being treated with kids gloves, imagine trying to criticize the press for UNDERreporting how poorly russia was doing.

Were having a nationwide identity crisis as libs and chuds try to figure out why people are talking about ukraine losing after 2 straight years of saying it's a totally one sided conflict and russia was out of ammunition soldiers and vehicles since the beginning.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 36 points 5 months ago

It's particularly hilarious to see libs dismissing outlets like NYT as Russian propaganda now because they're forced to start grudgingly acknowledging the reality.

It's not a loss if you don't admit to it. Excellent reasoning Mr. President.

But Mr. President, won’t your newly announced tariffs raise the prices on American consumers?

biden-forgor No, because here's the deal. There's a difference. I made it clear to Putin from the very beginning that—I'm not, we're not engaging in…For example, Trump wants a 10% tariff on everything. That will raise the price of everything in America. [Editor’s note: Biden appeared to mean Xi here, not Putin.]

Cumulative inflation means that prices are up 18%, at least since you took office and wage increases have not kept pace.
