Can the coronobros defend coverups of military injuries?

All the while ... the USAF sent out a memo on 14 March mandating the poison darts again bc the moderna therapy was "approved".
 
Some of them, specifically Azov, who've been fighting in Donetsk and Luhansk for years. Have you been ignoring all the posts from multiple different posters talking about them?
Ignoring? Yes, ignoring a little w all that is going on personally. I recalled someone blasting gassy (iirc) for not being all in on ukraine. The response was generally anti-nazi.

I guess it makes sense that lefties are ok with calling half of us nazis while literally defending ppl who are, literally, nazis.

I wasnt try to poke w my question; it was an honest question.

Sorry I forgot your personal situation, my sincerest apologies. Sometimes get lost on who I'm responding to with so many usually arguing with me here. Yes there are Nazis in Ukraine, I'll edit this post with more details, getting apology out first.

Azov Battalion is a part of the Ukrainian National Guard. They were originally a Nazi paramilitary that gained enough public support from their fighting Russians in eastern Ukraine to be legitimized. We trained and funded them, McCain met them. Democrats tried to stop when they found out about it, but Republicans wouldn't let them under advice from the Pentagon for several years until public outcry built. They're Putin's stated justification for the war, he's supposedly "denazifying" Ukraine. Which is obviously absurd as they're just a fringe group with a few thousand members whose political party got less than 2% in the last vote. Zelenskyy and his party have no affiliation with them and he's Jewish with several of his family members having been killed in the Holocaust. If anything Putin's invasion has made them more sympathetic as he's the clear bad guy now which makes them not as much the bad guys. Ask @Gassy_Knowls about them, he's been riding that train for a few days.

No worries dude. Im still here punching, just not dissecting the topics that are less interesting to me. I appreciate that a bunch though.

Oil has dropped 30% the last week, under $100 now. Gas hasn't moved down at all. Once again proving that the energy market is completely detached from all economic rules. The companies just do whatever the **** they want to gouge consumers because the legislatures are bought and paid for. Oil futures move up a bit and gas prices skyrocket instantly. futures fall back down and gas prices still go up, maybe go down a month later.

Unfortunately, that is the norm. Our military's readiness is also lied about.
 
Cal broke me long ago. I was not even surprised by last night.
Same with me. I have witnessed a lot of disappointing losses in my life and it took a long time to recover.

Last night is not one of those losses. I sat there watching and could predict the outcome. No suprise at all. This was all on Calipari.
 
I would hope the majority would vote Bernie over Trump if that was the choice in the general. One is pretty much universally regarded as a good person, whether or not you agree with his politics, and the other is universally regarded as a bad person, again whether or not you agree with his politics. Bernie as president wouldn’t instantly make America full-blown communist, and a fundamentally bad person leading the country causes all sorts of real problems, as we’ve seen.

Use to never miss a game. Planned my day/week around when we were playing. Loved Rupp, Hall, even Sutton (very nice man but had problems), Pitino, Tubby (got to the point with Tubby that I almost expected a loss and didn't like his style of play), was hopeful when Gillespie was hired (that went South), and Cal for the first number of years. Then got tired of the one and done, new team every year, all Freshman ('4/5 stars' mean little in college ball when you're a Freshman...too much to learn and playing against grown men), some bad tournament losses, etc.
So my interest was waning starting about 5 years ago. Then 'the kneel' at UF...not defending Coach Rupp...talking down to the fans... and I haven't watched a minute since. Told a UK friend/alum/booster several times that if the team knocked on my door....I would know it was a b'ball team since a few are taller than me...but would have no idea it was UK.

You described 95% of my family. I think the other 5% saw the light last night. It is time for Cal to move on down the road.
 
The whole “socialists can’t have money” thing is so silly. We live in a capitalist society. If you don’t participate you starve homeless. If Bernie donated his whole net worth of about 3 million directly to the federal government it wouldn’t do squat. We have to change the system. For all of us.

Great post. Echoes my sentiments, really.

Cal is like getting the best sex of your life only to end up with an STD. That' how his first five or six years were and then what followed after. Just in the past 7 years...we have had the worst loss in program history to a 15 seed St. Peters, a losing season, COVID, an Elite 8 loss to a 4 seed, a Sweet 16 loss to an 8 seed without their best player, a buzzer beater loss to UNC in the Elite 8, and a 2nd round loss to Indiana.

That's pretty shitty.

In addition to that, we have had Cal talk down to the fans, make zero adjustments, push the BLM BS, the Sharpe ordeal (if he wasn't going to play then why even come on campus?), no good OOC home games, and no one seeds.

Going into this year, I knew of exactly one returning player - Brooks. Didn't really know anyone last year. Everyone on this year's roster was new too. He has really destroyed the culture of this program. Amazing how Pitino was able to win a championship, go to the Final Four in 3 of 6 tries, and the Elite 8 in 5 of 6 tries with a combined four McDonald's All Americans during his tenure- Delk (1993, 1996) and Rhodes (1993), Walker and Mercer (96). Pitino was great at finding gems who would fit. I don't even think Cal would get a guy like Jeff Sheppard or Scott Padgett now.

I think it's quite a feat to kill off the passion that Kentuckians have for their basketball program.

Probably a discussion for the rafters, but how do you fix it? Who do you hire? We hate one and done but jizz our shorts when a player like Sharpe commits. Where’s the happy medium? We thought this team was that happy medium.
cal’s not going anywhere. We should probably get that out of our heads right now. I’m not sure what that loss is going to do to the psyche of the program going forward. There could be another mass exodus and rebuild or we can be lucky and return guys like Oscar, Wheeler, Toppin, Brooks, Ware, Sharpe (if we’re lucky), Fredrick is a better shooter than even Grady. So isn’t that what we want? A strong veteran Nucleus? What Coach out there will come here and produce championship contenders on the regular?

The only thing Socialism does is make everyone equally poor and beholden to the government. That’s the life you espouse.
