Posts: 516Good response to Chomsky and like-minded pro-Russians
https://blogs.berkeley.edu/2022/05/1...a-ukraine-war/
See the Open Letter for full details, but here are the main points, or patterns, addressed:
Pattern #1: Denying Ukraine's sovereign integrity.
Pattern #2: Treating Ukraine as an American pawn on a geo-political chessboard.
Pattern #3. Suggesting that Russia was threatened by NATO.
Pattern #4. Stating that the USA Isn't any better than Russia.
Pattern #5. Whitewashing Putin's goals for invading Ukraine.
Pattern #6. Assuming that Putin is interested in a diplomatic solution.
Pattern #7. Advocating that yielding to Russian demands is the way to avert the nuclear war.
A thoughtful, respectful, and civil discussion and rebuttal. Something that's sadly lacking in many circles.
P.S. The pro-Russia characterization of Chomsky, et al, is mine alone, not the article's authors.

Posts: 516My point was crystal clear. Not sure what yours is.

But, if Russian sources are good enough for you, why not just declare the successful completion of the glorious "special operation" and we can all go back to our regular lives? I'm sure, if you look hard enough, you can find a Tass article to that effect.
Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

And, no matter how the details of defeat play out, Putin will almost certainly be blamed and excoriated by the Russians themselves. Nothing worse than a "strong man" dictator who turns out to be a weak loser.

I like to think American movies are a big deal. When I travel, locals like to talk about American movies.

Any ideas on this? Is it just another American ploy to rip off the world? Any connections with America's captured bio labs in Ukraine? Is it one of the side effects of the Covid jabs? The gay guys coming down with it would be vulnerable as they inject themselves with all kinds of crap. It seems Bill Gates won't just FKK off. A real James Bond villain.

You're a fucking moron. I was on a suburban train some weeks ago, three loud mouthed Americans and me in my turf, coming from a place where there had been quite a few Americans idling about. When thinking about World War 4, think about those scenarios. In the mean time, get back to shooting up schools, synagogues, mosques and churches. It is what you hamburgers do best.

And, and, and, you know what's abso-fucking-lutely hilarious? None of this would have happened except for Russia's imbecilic invasion of Ukraine. Next time you speak to Little Vlad, be sure to give him my thanks for guaranteeing decades of NATO and American dominance! And, when your poor, apoplectic self is searching for someone to blame, just look toward those red brick towers in the East.
Barbarians at the gate! ROTFLMAO!

You were going well until you fucked up. Gallia in tres pars divisus est, Gaul is divided into three parts and so should your post have been.
1. USA has no culture beyond song and dance trash and Epstein.
2. America is not an idea. Americans have no ideas beyond a hamburger (Think Hamburg). I will grant you "small town America Football Friday nights a culture" but that now is mostly Matt Damon Hollywood shit.
3. The American dream. Fuck that shit. Let's trade nukes.
Of all the very many Americans I have met and worked with, I have respect for less than 1% of them and I am far from unique in that. Of that 1%, I have a lot of respect for them. But the perverts who post pics of their cum on the Philippines board, give me a break.
I've just spent a less than enjoyable month in Northern Finland, salmon fishing on the Teno River. And sharing my experiences with wolverines and brown bears made my holiday less than perfect (though the salmon were perfect, God bless Arctic warfare). Let's just say Finnish hospitals are expensive; be insured. Another week or so and I should be recovered. In the meantime, God Bles Russia.

Culture: the arts, customs, lifestyles, background, and habits that characterize a particular society or nation.
- The US is a melting pot of different customs, backgrounds, etc. Nothing clearly sticks out as out 'culture' at this point unless you can consider consumerism, grilling, solo cup keggers, and small town America Football Friday nights a culture (actually the last two are unique!).
I suggest a better way to characterize America (I. E. The US), is as an idea or ethos. Let's look at that definition.
Ethos: the character or fundamental values of a person, people, culture, or movement.
- This has more resonance. When immigrants think of America, they think of opportunity, which is core to our ethos. The American Dream is the national ethos of the United States, the set of ideals (democracy, rights, liberty, individualism, entrepreneurship, opportunity and equality) in which freedom includes the opportunity for prosperity and success, as well as an upward social mobility for the family and children, achieved through hard work in a society with few barriers (or less than other countries at any rate).
- Now, the US is FAR, FAR from perfect, but if you are a hard worker and want a leveler playing ground than virtually any other place than the world you should come here.

Moscow, May 20. / TASS /. https://tass.ru/armiya-i-opk/14689499.
"Russian Defense Minister General of the Army Sergei Shoigu reported to Russian President Vladimir Putin on the completion of the operation and the complete liberation of the Azovstal plant and Mariupol from Ukrainian militants.

"On the completion of the operation and the complete liberation of the plant and the city of Mariupol from Ukrainian militants, Russian Defense Minister General of the Army Sergei Shoigu reported to Russian President Vladimir Putin," Konashenkov said. According to him, the territory of the plant, where a group of Ukrainian militants of the Nazi formation "Azov" has been blocked since April 21, has been completely liberated.
More than 500 militants from the factory as part of the last group surrendered on Friday. "Today, May 20, the last group of 531 militants surrendered," Konashenkov said.
"The so-called "commander" of the Nazis" Azov "because of the hatred of the Mariupol residents and the desire of the townspeople to punish him for numerous atrocities, was taken out of the territory of the plant in a special armored car," the Russian Defense Ministry said.
According to Konashenkov, the underground facilities of the enterprise, in which the militants hid, came under the full control of the RF Armed Forces.
"In total, since May 16 of this year, during the operation, 2,439 Azov Nazis and servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, blocked on the territory of the plant, laid down their arms and surrendered," said a representative of the Russian Defense Ministry."
Now, the Ukronazis can get back to winning the war are finishing off the rebellion.
