Militarily supporting a country that collapses is not just embarrassing. It got America off to a bad start in Vietnam and let's not even talk about Afghanistan. If Russia wins you guys get subsumed and when we fight Russia we'll be fighting you as well. Who's going to be crying then?

hi, vaughn! we're not collapsing, but the country's political establishment is. that's not uncommon for ukraine, which remains, er, an experiment in progress. back in 2004 political leaders/oligarchs were completely insane, but ordinary citizens carried on. same ten years later. same in 2022. the good news is the critical mass of ordinary ukrainians might save the world. unfortunately, z and his potent mangers are not worthy, but we're working on that problem

Thank you for exposing me to Mitski. I like your work because I don't think like you at all. But I force myself an open mind.
