Funny, I thought the iPhone pushed out Nokia and Motorola…anyway luckily Apple doesn’t get any type of subsidy from the US government.

China isn't fascist because they don't have a racial supremacy as a core tenet of their ideology. If you want actual fascism look next door at India and the hindutva movement

slave to my cravings posted:our prediction of imminent war prevented war from happening we are the good guys in a way i feel like this was the plan from the start - stir up tensions to try and make it look like we scared the russians into backing down when they don't invade, ignoring that they never intended to launch an invasion to begin with, because after leaving afghanistan with our tails between our legs we needed to beat our chests a little so we can pretend we're still mighty and fearsome. but i think the ukrainians are screwing it up by not feeding into the hysteria and begging strong daddy usa to save them

slave to my cravings posted:our prediction of imminent war prevented war from happening we are the good guys this is what biden is hoping to happen but he will find a way to poo poo it up The most realistic way would be for germany to come up with a solution that both ukraine and russia are fine with. Even then they'll try to spin it as "NATO comes up with a solution" despite not playing any part in it.

Cao Ni Ma posted:this is what biden is hoping to happen but he will find a way to poo poo it up Biden already hosed it up by admitting we're not going to do anything more than sanctions - which means we're applying zero leverage to the situation. All we've done is dump weapons and specialists into Ukraine while whipping up an invasion frenzy. There's no meaningful deterrent being thrown up by the West whatsoever. All the reasons for Russia to not invade & occupy Ukraine are self-evident problems of practicality and long term diplomacy.

The weird push over the last few years for Nortel as some kind of aggrieved champion is so ridiculous...one of the worst managed companies of all time and a complete embarassing business failure entirely at their own hands.

Fat-Lip-Sum-41.mp3 posted:Angela Merkel scribbled, "Ukraine and Georgia WILL be part of NATO" on a cocktail napkin at the 2008 Bucharest summit, thinking Putin couldn't do anything about it. In order to join NATO, a government has to control its own territory. So Putin keeps separatists in Ukraine and Georgia strong enough to keep that from happening, and supported them directly in the case of Georgia. He doesn't like doing it, really. He is notoriously sore about the broken promises to Russia that NATO would not expand eastward, and says in every interview that it was a terrible mistake not to get that promise in writing. He wants that agreement, in writing, because to him that would correct a grievous error in Russian foreign policy. any agreement even in writing from the american empire is worthless lol, look at the iran deal

I assume that's the reason why Russian officials keep saying "we will only engage in diplomacy on our terms and when it benefits us"

It depends if someone is using mostly Ukrainian or a Russian in their daily lives, and the country is split. Basically, you can use either.
