Its sabotage. The leadership is incompetent, but they only make the rules. The people below them are the ones actually doing things.

Yes back then we didn’t have Facebooks and Mypages. We didn’t even have blogs really. If you wanted to post something on the internet you got yourself a Geocities account and made your own homepage using HTML. That usually just meant putting up dozens of animated gifs saying the page was under construction. If you wanted everyone to know you were a really edgy badass who didn’t play by the rules you’d have some laughing skulls and a gif of Diablo doing his attack animation. If you actually had something to say on your page you could use the <blink> html tag </blink> so that everyone would know just how important the message was, and also to give them eye cancer.

Its been pretty obvious for a long time that peaceful reunification is unlikely under current conditions and public desire for it is just being used as leverage. Every decade that rolls by the two nations move further apart culturally and economically, and the number of people who remember a unified Korea shrink.

One hour of surveillance a day, but you never know which hour it will be.

And not even the common courtesy of an off base Camaro with a custom exhaust at 60% APR? Savages.

Well I mean if Putin wants you gone he doesn’t need a rule to permit it, but his sort of law is about pushing that oppressive power down to lower levels of the chain. You dont need to catch the attention of anyone important, you can be oppressed by an anonymous low level clerk on a power trip.

Wait, Im confused. Which ones the hyper capitalist and which ones the fascist?

The US, China, Russia and more all have the capability to reach out and touch a data center in orbit. Further, such a facility wont last long without regular and extensive ground based support, which will very much be in someone’s jurisdiction. Finally, if a mega corp cant even get one government somewhere on Earth to let them operate a single micro data center without interference then they hardly have the pull required to make a play at world domination.

It would be so much easier, cheaper and more practical to just retrofit a cargo ship and float it in international waters…or pick a jurisdiction on land that doesnt give a shit as long as you pay them.

Probably not. Russia’s motives dont stem from a communications failure. They stem from predatory imperialist intent, and they arnt scared of the EU or Canada.

I dont think its even the money with these guys. They want worship and adulation, and MAGA is primed to do it. All the worst megalomaniacs are drawn to them like moths to a flame.

I doubt he ever knew that.

You arent wrong. Obamas great sin wasnt the tan suit, it was playing defense against Russia. It doest matter how strong you are or how weak your enemy is, if they only need to land one lucky shot to win you cant let them shoot indefinately without firing back. Then Biden made the same mistake…and here we are.

Everyone is calm because any analyst worth the name should have seen this coming since November, and its far too late to stop at this point.

I dont know why Europe didnt start rearming eight years ago, but now they are going to suffer for that oversight.

Thats not what I said either. You seem to be intent on finding a strawman to attack here.

No that is pretty explicitly not what they said.

Many of the people claiming to be too liberal for the dems online were not really people, or at least not eligible US voters. They choose whichever perspective is most destabilizing at the moment and push that, sometimes switching accounts and sometimes not even bothering to do that. Theyll jump from Bernie to Trump to Stein and back to Trump without a second thought because they do not actually believe in the positions they are backing, only the chaos they can cause. Some of these people are unaffiliated trolls, some are self organized volunteers, some are paid call center workers and some are bots.

And anyone who was would have to be a raging moron to comment about it online.

Yea I dont think anyone is going to enjoy the “find out” phase of this one. Maybe Putin, if he lives that long.

It is. At the very least it was illegal and unprofessional.
