Agree. But I think a lot of that escalation is only possible because Western masses are too comfortable, sitting in their sofas and enjoying this war as if it’s some football game. If the pain was felt back home, and people were protesting daily against sending more arms to Ukraine, I doubt they could keep escalating like this.
I don’t know what they’re waiting for honestly. Europe needs to start feeling some pain. There are too many mindless racists enjoying this war and thinking they could crush Russia without breaking a sweat.
Probably because of lack of knowledge and so many youtubers/twitters promoting that shit. It’s mind boggling how so many people can give financial advice on social media and not to go jail for it. They also always skew things, so that it seems that their advice was good when it really wasn’t.
Edit: I meant “lack of knowledge” that technical analysis is based on probabilities. Even if you do everything right, there’s still a significant chance that the market goes against you. Which is when a lot of traders end up getting their accounts blown out. Brokers also give noob traders tools like leverage and margin, which only makes it more likely for people to lose everything in one bad trade.
Yeah, Western society is so sick that many of it’s youth only see nuclear apocalypse as the solution. The only way to fix society’s problems is through a big reset, and nuclear Armageddon is the perfect solution to this. Really explains why Fallout games are so popular. Also shows how much lack of critical thinking there is in the West. They only know neoliberal capitalism and can’t envision a society that functions differently. Even the older generations seem to have forgotten what Keynesianism was like, they’ll call that communism.
I decided to try Stellaris. The changes post 2.0 are not as complex as I thought. I still miss the wormhole and warp drives though. I also liked picking between laser/bullets/torpedoes. Wish they would bring that back. In this game, I’m a Megacorporation that has almost turned the entire galaxy into it’s subsidiary. Only 1 empire remains, they have a few subjects of their own, but it’s just a matter of time until they’re torn apart and become a subsidiary. After that, all that is left is to destroy Unbidden which should be appearing any time now.
Maybe if they start getting killed by the thousands, the West will calm down. They are riding high on the myth of Western invincibility.
Don’t expect them to fight. They’re probably going to reinforce the Ukrainian rear, so Ukraine can free more manpower and send more Ukrainians to die against Russia.
The US should only be allowed to join if they abolish their space marine corps (or whatever they’re called).
