Our russian controlled white house will probably host several more PR stunts like this as they work towards their goal of fully cutting off US aid to ukraine.

I think it makes more sense to look at this as the latest step in that plan, rather than an unexpected event that with uncertain consequences to puzzle over. If this particular stunt was axed at the last minute, the situation in 6-12 months would likely be the exact same.

Ukraine was never going to accept a shakedown attempt from a proven welcher working for their enemy, nor agree to a full russian victory just because it was called peace.

I suspect that’s an effect of the under-education of our country. A more functional education system would probably produce fewer proudly ignorant people.

Lol it’s always projection.

Once they’re done building their migrant death camps, Homan and his fascist ilk will literally be conducting human sacrifices for the glory of their god king and his brutal regime.

A less intentionally broken education system would reduce the scale of the harm done.

The point isn’t to increase productivity it’s to tire and emiserate the minions.

Fascist coups succeed when the rich have bought into the coup.

Why would the rich seizing full control of the state make the stock market go down?

Of course they are making up numbers. Noticing is irrelevant.

In both russian regimes you just declare what the truth is and everyone either agrees or is the enemy.

I would be shocked if the fascists haven’t already backdoored the federal payment system.

Why do you need A) a crack team of racist child-hackers with full read/write access and B) your opponents to be barred from even entering the building unless you’re planning on seizing permanent control of the systems?

Judge’s orders can’t stop them and even if there is another election, they will still control the money.

Through UCLA’s Technology Transfer Group, which transforms brilliant research into global market products, the scientists have co-founded a medical development company called Pelage Pharmaceuticals

In case you were curious how this publicly funded research is going to be turned into private profits.

All day. Usually getting worse over the course of the day. Even a relatively mild hangover in the morning would be killing me by early evening.

Nothing helps it either. I’ve always eaten before drinking. Staying on top of hydrating while and after drinking has no noticable effect.

Our explanations for the behavior of outsiders say more about our beliefs than theirs.

Even explanations that feel correct to us are almost certainly wrong in important ways.

There’s plenty of scholarship on the various reasons people support fascism, that’s probably your best chance for a full answer.

Elon’s cash for votes scheme, the amount of russian money and planning on one side, plus there’s a decent chance that the fascists just committed direct electoral fraud as well.

It’s a fascist coup.

They took control of the judiciary some time ago, they recently seized the executive and now they’re destroying any remaining institutional power that can oppose them.

The current regime is not legitimate.

Nothing says guilty as clearly as getting help from trump.

This is what it looks like when some of the richest minds that russia can buy brainstorm ways to damage the US.

The reason for doing this is specifically because it’s so damaging to the US. Surprise surprise, a government hand picked by an adversary is intentionally destructive.

Capitalism can’t innovate.

The amount of americans this will kill would demand retaliation if putin had used kinetic warfare instead.

I imagine it would make fake-account-driven influence operations much harder, and it might drive down total online time.
