I was watching a Youtube Video yesterday of two guys in a pawn shop (real) and they were discussing an items price, and how it was effected by the war in Ukraine.

The guy who was selling the item said he thought the war would be over soon, since Puddin’s oligarchs would kill him for losing their money. They also surmised that he was likely ill due to news reports.

Video was dated 2022 (four years ago).

I keep hearing this, but the man keeps eviling his merry way along.

Market go up, market go down, missile go up, missile go down.

Cannot wait until butt stuff is no longer compromising, because who the fuck cares (as long as there is consent)?

Prolly gonna be 100 years to get to that point… But I hope it is sooner.

I would wish he would just die already but I honestly believe he is just a puppet with 80 different hands up his ass.

forget waiting for global warming, we can start a resource scarcity war TODAY!

So wait, was he born in Laos or Guangzhou?

Also, is he 62 or 57?

Interesting discrepancies, curious what other articles might say.

Yeah I’m just talking about the plane, I did not imply or mean to imply it was the same thing. “One” not “this one”.

Congress has tried to shutdown the A-10 program multiple times due to the fact that it would not fair well in peer, let alone near peer contested airspace, was trying to discuss with fellow airplane enthusiasts since both these planes were taken down by Iran, or mechanical failures.

Yeah I did not imply, or mean to imply it was this example specifically, I was discussing A-10 program as it has been attempted to be shut down numerous times, I thought fellow aircraft enthusiasts would be interested.

fuck.

Looks like one was confirmed to be an A-10 Warthog? No wonder they were trying to stop funding for those for like… Forever…

Not a true expert, but nothing in those photos says f35 to me…

If you aren’t free to oppress someone, are you truly free? (/s)

I think you’re agreeing with me? I’m not sure, but that was the point I was trying to make - we need each other for different reasons.

I don’t know what Iran expected when they spent the last several years actively arming Russia, I wonder how differently the war would have gone without Shaheds terrorizing Ukrainian infrastructure and civilians…

Iran has shown that the United States needs NATO, and NATO needs the United States, more than ever. If Iranian Shaheeds and their manpeds / S300s are hitting US fighters and sneaking past defenses, who knows what more advanced or just sheer high scale weaponry could do, air superiority does not feel guaranteed.

A near peer (Russia) conflict would be ugly on a scale not seen since WWI, a true peer (China) conflict would unleash horrors we cannot imagine. We will all need each other, as NATO is a significant deterrent factor, which could actually save the lives of millions through deterrence, or shift the balance of warfare through increase manufacturing and safe zone output.

Sounds eerily familiar to the night of broken glass… (11/9-11/10/1938)

I think if you look at the recent history (post WWII) of people charged with treason formally by the United States you will see that execution and a charge of treason, are pretty closely linked.

thats fair, my experience with autocrats, in such a personal way, is limited (fortunately).

I don’t understand what the man does to get people to be so ready to excuse him for his actions, feels like some kind of magic.
