Yeah, might just wanna remember that the people that clean up your mess aren’t the same ones who put a coin lock on the cart.

Maybe you don’t care, but your rage isn’t really being channeled in a way that gets vengeance on the right people. It just hurts your working class allies.

You quote me saying Russians have fascists in their government and military, something I sent you articles demonstrating that you didnt even bother to read, and then have the audacity to pretend like I owe you more research and need to prove a claim I never made? Get outta here with that nonsense.

You never managed to demonstrate that Ukraine is run by Nazis, nor that it is even a “systemic problem”. You just showed that like many countries, Ukraine has an ultra right nationalist party that failed to grab power, and idiot Neo-Nazis. Which I said should be fought against at every level… In every country… Including Ukraine… Yet you resort to another personal attack calling me a Nazis sympathizer.

Funny thing is, I liked your meme, I agreed with the point you were making, and had you come at me with the intention to demonstrate Ukraine isn’t some saint country without problems, we would have found common ground. No country is, and often times the problems of an underdog country are overlooked to avoid appearing like one is supporting a larger warmongering country.

But because I rejected a simple, all or nothing lie about the country, you instead felt the need to move goals posts, strawman my points, and fling personal insults.

Do you think lying, exaggerating, and attacking people will benefit your point in anyway? Do you think strawmanning points and moving goalposts will lead to a deeper mutual understanding? Or are you just so angry that you want the fight, and there is no point beyond that?

Honestly man, I feel kind of bad for you. Good luck, I hope you can find some joy in your life.

Lol, many countries do have open fascists in their military and government, Russia and the United States among them. Funny thing about folks who are willing to kill for their country, they are often ultra nationalists. A couple of the articles I sent you clearly demonstrate this in regards to Russia.

Regardless, you never even came close to supporting the claim “Ukraine is run by Nazis”. Worse for your point still, one of your sources stated clearly that said claim is demonstrably not true.

And while fascists and Nazis should be called out and shutdown on every level in every country, including Ukraine, exaggerating the extent to which these ideologies have infiltrated a government to justify war is blatantly propaganda and evil.

I’ll take your personal attacks on me as you admitting you overstated the strength of your “evidence”. Next time someone makes a clear cut argument like “Ukraine is run by Nazis”, don’t provide evidence that literally says that’s not the case and then pretend like it supports the claim. That’s not “too complex to understand”, that’s just lying.

So… A handful of articles about individuals in Ukraine, a march of 300 nazi sympathizers, actions of a reported terrorist organization, and an article that states the following:

Ever since Ukraine’s February revolution, the Kremlin has characterised the new leaders in Kiev as a “fascist junta” made up of neo-Nazis and anti-Semites, set on persecuting, if not eradicating, the Russian-speaking population. This is demonstrably false. Far-right parties failed to pass a 5% barrier to enter parliament

You just wasted a lot of my time… Many countries have idiots, my own has plenty of jackasses who could be called Nazi sympathizers. That doesn’t mean the country is run by Nazis, and to claim such is very obviously propaganda. I wonder if you would be so willing to generalize a whole nation and its government if the rubberband was on the other claw?

In the first half.

Ukraine is run by nazis

Or are we playing the “everyone I dont like is a nazi” game? In that case, Russia and my HoA is run by Nazis!

Lol, actually a Linux user, but I do fear change. And to be fair, I don’t have accurate stats for feature parity percentage. Maybe it is above 70%. And I actually do use the Settings app often when I have to deal with Windows at work. So I get that it’s actually not terrible, and is slowly getting better.

Regardless, let me just add a secondary IP address to a network interface so I can access a network device using a different IP scheme without losing access to the internet. Oh wait… Settings doesn’t have that feature… It opens Control Panel…

Well, that’s just one instance, no biggie. Now I just need to create partitions on a new disk… Settings got my back right? Oh… No… It needs to open Disk Management…

Whatever, that’s pretty rare anyway. Just gotta rename this printer. Oh, launches control panel again…

My point is this, having to navigate what settings have been migrated, what settings haven’t, and what have been disabled just to force users to try Settings, is a bad experience. Its not fearing change, its growing pains. Just telling people that “control panel is being depreciated” doesn’t solve the fact that this swap is currently making the situation harder, not easier. I look forward to the day where I don’t have to wonder where to find the settings I need to access again.

And when the Settings app has even 70% feature parity, I’ll stop crying about control panel.

Not that I’m fully on board with the theory, but you might be surprised how often “solving” a high profile case is placed above actually getting the right man.

This is a publicity nightmare for the police, and getting someone in custody “achieves” placating the public and key stakeholders.

Repeating things about this kids views on the Uni-bomber and referring to his writings as a manifesto “achieves” diminishing his status as a folk hero.

So while I won’t endorse any particular theory until more evidence comes out, it wouldn’t be the first time putting a scapegoat in jail was deemed more important than letting people think the “perp” got away. Even if the hypothetical real shooter kills again, controlling the narrative can be it’s own goal in cases like this.

It’s from the BBC, they are using the British spelling.

I dunno bro, I use Linux and I’m dumb af on a good day.

woah

All you have to do to get my money is let me be a pirate, a jedi, a ninja, or a samurai. My inner child can’t help themselves.

So how can Ubisoft be so terrible that I have literally not wanted to play their Pirate game, their StarWars game, and now their Ninja/Samurai game!?

Awww… Give yourself a little credit! If you were born the successor of a slave employing Emerald Mine fortune, you could fail your way up too!

So uh… Where are your mega millions then champ???

No apologies needed, if you missed it, plenty of others probably did too. Poe’s law and all that. And frankly I fully agree with your point.

Lol, thanks. Next time I’ll drop a /s

But maybe you could still pretend I am a strong man every once in a while anyway? As a treat?
no… oh… okay…

Borderlands 2, in the mission “Kill Yourself”

I dunno if “remembering” something is so strong an act as to imply an opinion, positive or negative.
