    and why do you think nato would like having an aggressive, hostile, nuclear-armed power willing to wage wars of conquest on non-nato states expand to the borders of its member states (poland, hungary, slovakia, romania)?

      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

        this sentiment, more than any other you’ve shitposted about, puts to bed the question of your ‘libertarianism’. What is the core tenet of libertarianism, if not maximizing personal freedom at the expense of state power? Do tell how much personal freedom Putin cares about in Russia, or Ukraine and the other eastern countries he has plans for.

        Do we even need to comment about the supposed distrust and skepticism of the power of the state that all true libertarians share? Can you say, with a straight face, that you believe Putin would stop at a conquered Ukraine? Or is your skepticism limited to all things Biden?

          Libertarians are anti-war, except in the case of defense. If you look at the polls it seems most of America is libertarian right now...

          I don't know what Putin cares about. If you personally know him then please do tell.

          Putin may stop conquering Ukraine if they stay neutral.. At least according to the Kremlin:





          Are you willing to risk nuclear war with Putin?

            Bloody hell, Uncle Ted. You are literally retweeting propaganda from Russian state media (RT America).

              Look in the mirror. You're pouting because people don't take you seriously. I don't engage you in serious discussion, because you're not a serious person, and I resort to name calling because I don't respect you and it amuses me. Get over it buddy.

                This is an incredibly long thread but fascinating on why he thinks Russia will lose this war. Goes into quite a bit of detail about military strategy.

                  So we are not to consider any of their demands and go to war? I just hope we lunch first...


                  If we are second then we might not get a chance.

                  But maybe all those 80 year old Ukrainians armed with AK47s and hunting rifles can take Russia down before any of this happens.

                      Lol'd at the typo suggestion we eat lunch before going to war. We will!

                      But Ted, you are a master at presenting false, binary choices. Bowing to Putin's demands does not mean we're going to war. Be more like Zelensky, less like Cruz.

                        What? You're not impressed by this cat shit logic?



                        NS is correct, there is very little serious engagement here. It just fouls the thread. Why respond?

                            Watching people respond to Uncle Ted is probably more entertaining than anything else on this site. He should be ignored and never taken seriously...mostly because he drives a little truck. Yeah, he's from Texas and he doesn't even drive a full size truck. That fact alone should preclude anyone from responding to him ever.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                              I've said it before, people take UT way too seriously.

                                He’s not even a native Texan.
