None of these are left things so maybe we can start with outright banning all those weird people

Frosted Flake posted:I imagine there are more difficult place than this to moderate. I would suppose that even in modmail there are endless back and forths over which tack is best for a particular issue . Most decisions are unpopular amongst some constituency or another, admins will punish the whole community for perceived inaction by mods, and so you really are in a situation where you have to do what you can without overplaying your hand. The moderation policy you're looking for is, in short, "not a single Nicolaitan"

Majorian posted:Yeah, Russia and Ukraine both at least claim to trace their ancestry back to the Varangians (led by Rurik). Much like every Mongol is a direct descendant of Genghis Khan, everyone in Europe traces their lineage back to vikings. Everyone wants to be cool by proxy. Actual reality if we did enough genetic research may not match up but its more about the t-shirt logo, so to speak.

Danann posted:Eh the Turkish wunderwaffen basically disappeared from its strike role over the course of the first year of the war at this point: Yeah, if anything most drones are intercepted all the time and it doesn't come up very much because what is there to say? Recently, several waves of drones were intercepted in Crimea, you can argue it may not have been a cost-efficient trade but air defense does work. Also, to be fair, while I don't think the Ukrainians intercept most of the drones/missiles that cross over, they absolutely do have their own AD and they do hit as much as they can; you have to give them some credit. There is a bit too much hype on both sides. I would say with the issue with both Kiev/Engels is that it is just very easy to slip a drone at low altitude across the border and for it to slip by radar until it shows up to the actual defenses around the location. You can't defend everything, everywhere. It also shows some of the motivations by the Russians by the fact they don't they need at least to consolidate control over Eastern Ukraine in order to create a buffer zone to minimize both drones (and more importantly) conventional/nuclear decapitation strikes.

Endman posted:Vikings conveniently colonised anywhere neo-pagan racists like to live The Viking Age lasted in total only 270 years. Each of the countries affected has been Christian for at least three times as long. If we look at them 270 years ago, in 1750, they were Viking or Pagan in no way shape or form. I mean, to the point of it being comical to consider. So, why not create an entire identity around that? They were even at war with Russia. The reason is that Christianity is too Jewish for this kind of white nationalism and all of the make believe bullshit and howling at the moon comes after the “runic” symbols and belief in “ancestry” which is just Nazi iconography and blood and soil dressed up to provide a veneer of legitimacy. lol the Vikings won their greatest glories after conversion to Christianity anyways, it’s all so stupid.

Endman posted:it is very funny that the most successful "vikings" were French-speaking catholics quote:Europeans probably became aware of Greenland's existence in the early 10th century, after Gunnbjörn Ulfsson, while sailing from Norway to Iceland, was blown off course by a storm and sighted some islands off Greenland. During the 980s explorers led by Erik the Red set out from Iceland and reached the southwest coast of Greenland. They found the region uninhabited, and subsequently settled there. Erik named the island "Greenland" (Grœnland in Old Norse, Grænland in modern Icelandic, Grønland in modern Danish and Norwegian). Both the Book of Icelanders and the Saga of Eric the Red state that Erik said that “it would encourage people to go there that the land had a good name."[8] lol king poo poo

despite what you might learn from crusader kings there's never been any discovery of anything runic in ukraine and basically all of the viking influence had been stamped out of the states rulers by the time they actually made kiev the capital. this is all like Romanians becoming obsessed with panturkism because of the Tepes turkic ancestry. the connecting thread is gossamer thin

Their performance since that point hasn’t been spectacular. Also, “crony capitalism” is translated as “the Russians didn’t let us loot everything.” Same old same old etc

Well did, the "decolonization" effort kinda precludes any of that - you'd think, anyway. although I'm sure cognitive dissonance and no regard for truth or fact will find a way - the vikings were western vikings and catholic or something.

lol but also i get get what hes saying. fact that zelenskyy can strip bargaining power etc tells you the economy wasn't 'neoliberalized' as one would like. Ardennes posted:Also, “crony capitalism” is translated as “the Russians didn’t let us loot everything.” honestly i wouldn't even put it that far since a nationalistic reasoning makes it seem noble. just existing power centers moving to protect their interest. the rules of the game changed but in the end the near person is always going to work quicker than the far one in exploiting a situation. also from the comments lol
