Again, the "not rich" generally don't have much cash around. You have to be pretty rich to have much of your wealth inflated away. Farmers can be any class. They can be middle class, they can be a eastern european dude with a tractor older than him and as many hectares of land as a lumberjack's...

Nah, not really. All of them had some more gray area exceptions, and plenty of discussion and/or observation that the less backwards option works better for those who practice it, resulting in slow and gradual shift towards the other position. And to further give justice to the complexity...

None of these "every's" are true and we both know it. Inflation borrows money from everyone's future towards here and now. Obviously that's an incredibly vulnerable to misuse and dangerous ability to have for a country, yet there are some historical events that could be argued well enough to...

If everyone does it and keeps getting away with it, it's not a very strong argument against it.

Fuck you right back, i'm sick of contrarian retards stuck with knowledge of geopolitics worth of 12 year old whose leftist teacher got them into Chomsky early yet somehow think they are right wingers. And yet the numbers says that this whole issue is a drop in an ocean, and so, even if it was...

Again, you are clearly pushing a misdirection that them not doing such things has anything to do with lack of money. It does not. They would not reopen it even if it would only cost proverbial treefiddy. They are even willing to ask Ukraine to not attack Russian refineries despite it definitely...

So just fitting in with the leftist company, they shouldn't complain. Ah, so just typical leftist views about "sanctions against enemies bad".

True, it is a leftist criticizing a leftist for not being leftist enough. The sanctions are against the government...

>Grayzone Yeah, i'll take everything those leftards say with a Panamax freighter sized dose of salt. What next, breadtube? I can't see anything mentioning starving them other than some hyperbole made by the reds on video. For something they describe as "starvation" and "sadistic Syria sanctions...

I'm not stuck in binary thinking, they have their own slapfights, in fact China will probably try to get Russia down to a role of junior partner if not worse, and Russia will resent that, but despite that, as long as the West is there, they have a more naive and less violent prey to let the...

It means they are on the same side when it comes to dealings with the West. It's like saying that China and North Korea aren't the same thing. Sure, technically they aren't, but when it comes to conflicts with us, they may as well be.

Implying they are separate from China, and China is separate from Russia in all of this.

Well go tell the other countries to stop theirs, see what they reply... On one hand, i do understand. On the other hand, by now you certainly have heard the popular in our circles term "useful idiot", which by definition is something clearly separate from an accusation of willing association...

National interests are a thing. He can claim that... But that defense is not a defense if some other people call him treasonous scum. It would be a defense in front of people who talk about the values of "global citizenship", but i don't think we have those here. Want to moralize to people about...

That's a very interesting set of terms to use. I for one would have a very careful view of people who see a need to call themselves "anti-establishment". Great, you are against the establishment, so am i, but what are you for? Even i don't like the establishment, but there are some other...

Still, most of the stuff he revealed would not even be suitable to take to court as it was foreign related, so if he was solely concerned about few more controversial domestic programs, why didn't he stick to leaking that? Did he *have* to reveal absolutely everything he had?

That's far from the only thing he leaked, and he didn't go to court with it either, just the public. For example stuff about how US intel is spying on Russia, which is a classic case of legitimate secret info for a government, or specific cyberwarfare tools and their capabilities. Even if you...

What crimes against own citizenry? Did anyone go to court over what he revealed? Having cyberwarfare tools? Not a crime. The highly known and controversial stuff like dirty laundry from wars and diplomacy was definitely not "crimes against own citizenry" yet he revealed that too, just causing...

Another one living in a dream world where the Americans are not only united about such controversial political matters, but united around his fringe views on those matters at that? Sorry, it's not communism, some people have a better claim to limited resources than others. No, what you are...
