Totally agree with you. It’s one thing to be anti-American, anti-West or anti-Israel (there are many reasons why some people would feel this way), and another thing to support Russian Imperialism. By all standards, Russians have been more brutal than any of the “Western” nations in the last few...

In countries such as Britain, France and Italy it would not be seen as peanuts since they all have very difficult economic problems. Politically it would be problematic. I think it would be much easier to finance such a deal if the US would pay half, and the EU the other half.

It comes from various sources of Western folklore and myths, and it was popularized by the Tolkien’s novel Lord of the Rings and by the game series Warcraft. No. Orc represent some brutish demonic humanoids that are savage, cruel and stupid. Nobody cares anymore about what happend centuries...

Is this serious, or is it meant as a joke?

But lots of people in the East complain about the killing of Palestinians while totally ignoring the killing of Tigray people or Yemenis. There is hypocrisy on both sides.

No, they are called orcs because of they ways they behaved. They pillaged, raped and tortured the civilian population of Ukraine, so they earned their “orc” name. It has nothing to do with their history, but with the way they are acting right now. If you act like a savage, people will call you...

The thing is, people in Eastern Europe knew about the Russians being savages for a long time, so we are not waking up from some sweet dreams. We’ve been through this before. Our countries have been pillaged in the past by the Russians. Ironically, people in Eastern Europe are not responsible...

I don’t see many people in the East caring about brown people dying either, unless they are killed by the US, when there is lots of outrage. When people die in the Yemen war or in the Tigray conflict, it is mostly European countries who speak about the problem. People in the East seem to only...

Your way of saying it is less offensive, but the way GostsMilk said, it was simply “whites” and “non-whites”, as if white people dying is not a problem, while non-white people dying is a problem.

I detect some sort of anti-white racism in this kind of thinking. As long as it is white people dying, we don’t care.

We’re not judging this only from the perspective of politics, but from the perspective of ethics and morals. What Putin did was wrong, no matter if he wins or not. What Putin did in Checenya was wrong, despite the fact that he won the war and from a political perspective it might have been a...

There is only one part guilty for this war: Russia What should have Ukraine been doing after having some of its regions taken over by some foreign armed mercenaries? Just a hypothetical scenario: what if France armed some Catalan separatists and they would make an armed coup and take over...

Taiwan is one of their neighbors, and they are constantly threatening it. Anyway, I don’t think they will try to invade it, as I think they are not that stupid.

That makes no sense. If China doesn’t attack its neighbors and lives in peace, the risk of destruction and break up is very small. But if China starts to invade its neighbors than yes, it may end up destroyed and separated into provinces.

Yes, please remind the Russians about those methods such as dialogue, peace and diplomacy, the next time they start to invade one of their neighbors.

Yes, the Belt and Road initiative makes a lot of sense in this context, as it acts as some sort of backup trade route for China in case it is subjected to a naval blockade.

Yes, because the plans are mostly for a contained war around Taiwan, not an all out war between US and China, as the one being discussed here.

The EU is doing many stupid things, I agree with that. The climate change mania and the gay/trans obsessions are not helping with having the support of many people, especially in the Eastern part of the block. One of the reasons why I would like to see Turkey in the EU would be to shift the...

It is sufficient for the US to convince the Philippines and Malaysia to be on their side and allow US aircraft to use their airfields, and together with Japan, China is basically sealed. I really don’t see how China could win such a war, because they have no real friends in Asia, and nobody...

A little bit of sarcasm and a few more insults, that’s all the arguments you are able to bring to the discussion. If this thread is for adults, you’re in the wrong place.
