Jorp having some opinions. He remembered the "holomodor".

lol Jorp is like when they interview a cop on TV and they start using big words in goofy ways to sound smarter.

quote:

RUSSIA... is a nuclear power, and we run the very real risk of backing them into a corner. And that, bad as it is, is only one of the many options for disaster.

Jorp is... right? He's even a Mearsheimer enjoyer?

I only watched the first five minutes. Is there a twist in the next 46 minutes?

#liberated Mariupol - The Corps of Engineers of the Russian Army expects to finish its first 6 apartment blocks in October, and the remaining 6 - in November, with combined capacity of 1011 apartments for about 2500 people. Eventually, an entire residential development is scheduled to be built.

Also, to speed up the reconstruction of ravaged Mariupol, a pre-fab concrete elements plant is put into operation, and a concrete plant as well.

A showroom apartment can already be visited. Apartments will be delivered finished, equipped with a basic set of home appliances, without furniture.

The joke about Jorp is that he relates everything to himself. He is arguing that Russia would feel cornered because they´d rather die than become gay or look at Elliot Page´s Abs after jerking off to him watching the movie Juno. That´s the twist.

Just want to note tangentially that Juan guaido might be president of Venezuelans if he just let Trump gently caress his hot wife.

https://www.mintpressnews.com/mark-esper-reveals-us-plans-war-terror-against-venezuela/280930/


quote:

While Trump was publicly singing Guaidó’s praises, endorsing him as the true leader of a free Venezuela, behind closed doors, he said exactly the opposite. According to Esper, Trump thought Guaidó was a remarkably “weak” politician, especially compared to the “strong” and “tough” Maduro.

Trump commented on the fact
that Guaidó’s wife, Fabiana Rosales, did not even wear a wedding ring, another sign of weakness, according to the president. In fact, Esper says, “Trump seemed more impressed by Rosales than her husband,” always making time to speak to her rather than him, and treating her very warmly. The 73-year-old president commented that the 27-year-old Rosales looked “very young” and attractive.

Bolton’s book also mentions that Trump quickly soured on Guaidó but remained intensely interested in his wife. After multiple failed coups, Trump reportedly took to calling him “the Beto O’Rourke of Venezuela” – suggesting that he saw Guaidó as someone who talked a good game but had no substance or support behind him.

I don’t think any of Trump’s statement suggested that he saw Guaidó as someone who talked a good game actually.

it’s like trying to watch a baseball game where the camera and announcers never talk about the score and never show the field, they just keep doing replays of the home team getting a hit three innings ago and another loop of a guy on the bad team getting an error on the first play of the game.

also in this analogy the away team keeps being called nazis by the announcers while the announcers also tell you that the nazis did actually have some reasonable points about the Yankees. and the home team’s entire pitching section have swastika tattoos

Also, yeah not only did the Ukrainians already have an MRLS system with a similar range but it had GPS-guided munitions as well. Admittedly, most of them may be gone but a HIMARS is only filling in a capacity that already exists/existed.

Also, I don't know if a base was hit or not, but I got to say that tweet in Russian comes off as a bit same category as those phone calls back to Mom.

Anyway, it isn't that bases aren't being hit, it is just that pro-Russian bases were already being hit and the Russians are hitting Ukrainian bases. It is more the narrative building, especially since it is being pushed right after the recent offensive, comes off as suspect (the Ukrainians got the Russians on the run with HIMARS).

Ardennes has issued a correction as of 21:42 on Jul 10, 2022

I get it now.

we have a foreign war because good Christian men have lost the domestic culture war to woke cultural Marxists. if America's ruling class is willing to do something like putting a black woman in the Supreme Court, then they must be dumb gay pussies who would even do dumb poo poo like getting into a proxy war with Russia. Whereas Russia's very not-gay crusaders are fired up with the Orthodox spirit of Christ, which means that they're going to win both the real war and the culture war, which means the West will be even more cucked at the end of all this, and much poorer materially.

this is pretty on-brand for Jorp.
