I think you are a hypocrite. You don't think for yourself you just think what you need to think to justify the next thought. It's why so many of us laff at you in this thread. None of your thoughts make sense with your other thoughts. Like your whole thing of trying to say you understand non aggression and you think spending is too high yet you are all for sending unlimited money to Ukraine in a war that doesn't affect us. Those are conflicting thoughts and you espouse both.
You have no argument. You just espouse russian talking points. And say the war ''doesnt effect us''. Then when shown facts and historical presedence. You call it ''cia propaganda''. What I mean when I said most of Trump's supporters are idiots.
Got to love a libertarian that doesn't think the cia uses propaganda on us. And I had a good argument on the fact you complain about spending but would send any amount of money to Ukraine when we don't have a single national interest in that region.
I wish the CIA was 1/3rd as based as you think they are. We do have a national interest in the region. When did I complain about spending? I said Ukraine was one percent of our GDP. In a good way. Because you act like it's like 30%.
Here's the libertarian stance, or is Dave smith actually extreme maga too? Yet again, amazingly, every disagreement, or "everything I don't like" is Russian propaganda, you say. Which i must say, I'm Very impressed that everything has been done perfectly with full plans in place, no mistakes, and has been well thought out. Makes sense with our countries precedent in things like the war in Afghanistan, Vietnam, etc. So no doubt all of this is running smoothly...of course don't question it...disinformation campaigns and all
Mises Caucus is a paleolibertarianism party. You know they're typically shit on, in libertarian circles for being republicans in masks, right?
How exactly would he end it? He said he doesn't support Ukraine ceding any land to the Russians. Russia isn't walking away from Ukraine without taking some land.
I like how you use the useful idiots moniker. It makes you seem smart, above it all. A intelluctal. Yet you openly do the bidding of a political party (GOP). The irony is not lost on you, I'm sure.
Is anyone saying the war hasn't been devastating? Putin can end the war anytime. He just has to pull out of Ukraine. Why hasn't he?
They’re are lots of Republicans who are all in on funding Ukraine till the last one of them is dead.
The MAGA wing is really a party within a party. I guess I should have said MAGA. But it fits under the GOP umbrella.
Competent diplomacy is not isolationism.
1. Trump has said he doesn't support Ukraine ceding land to Russia. 2. So has Biden 3. A few days ago Russian publicy said they would not accept any peace plans, that deal with ceding land back to Ukraine.
Yeah yeah, we've heard it all. Muh media. It's only brainwashing when it's the other side. Not your side.
So you don’t think Democrats have committed many Authoritarian actions? Some even might say, sending a seemingly endless supply of tax payer funded weaponry to a foreign nation. To fight a war a large percentage of those tax payers don’t care about is pretty authoritarian.
Why do you keep going back to democrats? I don't like either one of them. Republicans say they want limited government, until they get into power. Then it's big government for your own good. Democrats claim to love free speech and personal liberty. Until it's used to stop them, from enroaching on your liberty. Then it's an issue.
You claim to want limited government intervention in our lives. How does that jive with supporting sending Billions of dollars to corrupt governments? Where do you think that money is coming from? Ukraine is losing some of their land. You, Trump and anybody else who believes they’re not are fooling yourselves. Some of us want serious discussions held to end this waste of lives and resources as painlessly for the Ukrainian people as possible. To my knowledge that hasn’t come close to happening since the beginning of the war. Is the US a world leader or not? Bring these people to the table instead of enriching the weapons manufacturers over and over again.
I wish we didn't have to tax people. But like I said, there's not a way to fix that at this moment.
This sounds fantastic and that whoever this is actually put thought into it. But is anybody in power on either side going to wanna stop sending the commoners into the meat grinder?
If Putin thinks his millitary can get him some more land, he won't. That's why it's important to bleed em dry.
