People have predicted Illinois default for years, after multiple standard and poors downgrades. Still waiting.

I had seen this as well, those who were for covid now some support the current? if you didnt trust the media on covid why support the MSM on the Ukrainian conflict?


You don't have to believe anything. Why even go on the internet?

Maybe its just me, but has anyone else noticed that older members have been posting after months and years of very little to no activity?
Correct the Record ring a bell?
Except now, its all about Russia.
Wait, it was all about Russia then, too...
lol.


Speaking of old timers with dinky post-to-account age ratios, you also seem to also crawl out of the woodwork rather infrequently yourself. Just 2800 posts since 2007, and no post activity at all between December 23,2021 and March 1st.

Gee, you'd think maybe a disinfo lurker going off that.

Point is, from this post count of mine, yours and his look mighty similar through your own lens.


As to the OP, ultimately citizens decide when "normal" happens under authoritarian leaders. I think we might see regular Joseph/Josephine Russians lose all fear of repercussions & fight back before the North Koreans do, or even Chinese (though they do seem to be more than a little fed up with the CCP as of late, so who knows)

Do you believe whatever MSM says about Covid as true? like how effectvice the masks had been? as for Ukraine. I

f Ukraine was on the verge why has the Ukrainian side been using simulation game footage's as footage's from the conflict? or old videos of the conflict from 8 years ago?

The same media said that Russia was on the verge of collapsing and defaulting the opposite. Remember when the experts said that the markets wouldn't crash on 2007, 2008?

The media on most things haven't been honest.

Unlike before Russia has a agriculture.

Russia had produced fertilizers for Africa, Europe. It seems the ones who would be hurt more is Europe, i had seen tweets from UK how they are running out of oils in some places...

The US is also in jeopardy of defaulting on its debt. I suspect the AP News article can be said about nearly all the countries globally.

Link?

You can look it up quit easily by putting 'is US close to defaulting on debt' for lots of articles. I've read many articles over the last few months indicating that yes; we are.
I'd go grab one of the many links FOR you, but slavery was outlawed long ago.

Video games? You're obviously getting your sources from areas of the internet I don't travel too.
The war is real, whether you choose to believe it's all a video game or not.

3 days before the invasion.


As shelling by Russia-backed separatists continues in eastern Ukraine, the White House said in a Feb. 20 statement that Russia "appears to be continuing preparations for a full-scale assault on Ukraine very soon."

Alright.....So your suggesting that most of the footage coming from Ukraine is in fact, video game footage thus the war is fake? Or because there's a video online claiming to be real but it's not., then that's proof that the war is fake?
Explain to me what you're saying and how it should effect my outlook on this travesty?

Which is a default.

The contracts require payment in dollars or euros in specified amounts on specified days.

Default does not = not survive.

No, they produce 1/3 of the wheat that is exported to another country, HUGE difference.

This is an amount that the U.S. can easily replace by simply stopping the payments to farmers to leave farmland barren.

Before the invasion, when countries were warning Russia not to invade Ukraine, or max sanctions would be activated, Russia replied, "Give it your best shot, we'll outlast most of you." Sounds like Russia planned this invasion, doesn't it?

Russia will be on their own. Except for maybe China. That's great company to have when the rest of the world has abandoned you because your leader is completely inept to the point of insanity.
Not Joe Biden forgetting his speech inept, but more "I'm going to kill thousands and thousands of people because I'm a total Dick" inept.

I hope they topple him. The Russian people don't need a lunatic living in the forties to lead them into the future.
