Trump just ended all trade talks with canada a few days ago

That’s a leap, highly doubt the rest of the would nuke russia over ukraine. India, pakistan, israel, NK for sure wouldnt not give a single fuck.

Spotify CEO also donated millions to trump campaign.

Komrade Orange would probably give the nukes to russia before ukraine lol

100k a year in most EU countries is considered wealthy, and we have the highest taxes in the world.

We also generally have higher food/gas prices than anywhere else, so probably it’s more related to spending habits in the US. Eating out should be a once per month thing not three times per day.

That being said, we also got free healthcare and education so probably makes a huge difference.

A single nuke would be worse for ukraine, russia would start using nukes immediately. Ukraine can do very little to russia with one nuke and russia would want to destroy ukraine before they become an actual nuclear threat to russia.

So one nuke would pretty much be suicide for ukraine. They’d need at the very least, a couple of dozen nukes.

Uhm, no thanks? Maybe fuck the ccp?

Generally yield and intention difference, strategic takes out cities, tactical takes out factories, military bases and compounds.

Russia has the support of China, otherwise they would’ve lost already, so the answer to your question is china via russia. Because we are competitors, it makes sense for them to have russia bleed us economically.

It’s actually not the worst idea, 5% is a lot, way more than needed, but it’s pretty decent to play catch up.

EU states are pretty far behind with their militaries, pumping it to 5% for a few years and dropping it back to 2-3% when we’re caught up with other superpowers seems like a good idea.

Home of the cowards, land of the slaves**

Well thats exactly what you’d get by not investing in defence, which is a deterrent for war.

So defence isn’t worth investing in? Try telling that to eastern europe.

Dumbfucks believed the orange guy who was sitting in front of the billionaires. Lets not forget that a third of the us isn’t capable of reading above the 6th grade level.

Had to scroll all the way down to find the right answer…

Nothing is beamed directly to your phone, it’s a broadcast, so waves n stuff.

Technically it’s not the worst thing in the world, as long as russia is engaged in a war. The offensive side historically takes 3x casualties than the defending side, that includes use of ammunition.

Ie so if ukraine produces 1M shells and russia 2M, ukraine is still better off.

Not that i dont support ukraine getting more ammo, far from it. it’s just that things arent so black and white, producing more doesnt mean you’re winning.

Well how the fuck was i supposed to know i cant use that word “orc”. Been using that online for 3 years now without any issues. I mean, sure i guess its a good reason for the removal but i’d like to know the reason too. Without actually letting us know why anything gets removed is just shadowbanning.

I love how lemmy is even worse than reddit, just comments getting removed and with no explanations.
