Good choice.

Yup. They do an outstanding job of tricking the world into believing that Australians are educated. Wink

This is why you can't have nice things.

You insult my uni AND my country, and I have to torch your stuff.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"

Great interview with Chomsky. He dispels all of the disinformation coming from Western media about Putin supposedly becoming a mad man overnight and attacking without provocation. Chomsky makes the point that if Ukraine somehow is facing the prospect of actually winning this thing, Russia with their backs against the wall, may well resort to using weapons on Ukraine that they have not used yet, and if they do, are we really going to fight WW3 over Ukraine? And before anyone comes in with a fifth grade insult about me liking the Putin pee pee, let me just say, that's very George W. Bush of you and I like how you've adopted Bush' neo-con foreign policy philosophy. As W Bush said, you're either with us, or you're against us. Or, how about, I'm against a proxy war with a nuclear armed Russia that stands the risk of escalating into something much more disastrous for the world?

The reich loves vlad, it was only a matter of time until you started babbling about it.

Hey, quick q, what wall is russias back against? I believe they call the place behind them Russia. Seems like they’d be welcome there.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Well, we fought a world war over a useless slab of Austrian royalty. Ukraine is significantly more important (on several levels).

Yup, Noam Chomsky is super reich wing and just loves him some Adolph and the 3rd reich. You got em again Nudge.

And yes, I was definitely talking about a literal wall. Got em again Nudge.

Idk how good Noam Chomsky's name is going to be at laundering your collective obsessions. What metaphoric wall do you think russias back is against?

So that's why we want to.. air quotes.. help Ukraine? Because of the geo-political interests involved, and not because we care so much about Ukrainian lives like Western media is telling me? That's why Putin invaded in the first place and has killed tens of thousands. Because of your geo-political goals and poking at the bear. And WW3 might be a whole other ball of wax than previous world wars. We have a nuclear armed world now and mutually assured destruction in nuclear warfare is not an idea to just scoff at.

How would the US like it if one of the countries on their border, Mexico or Canada, turned anti-American and became top allies with Russia or were pro-China but anti-America?
