Covok posted:Is Russian's military even a threat to the U.S. sans nuclear weapons? They can threaten enough to cause casualties, never win, and NATO would crush them during the counter invasion and russia would no longer exist as we knew it. Nuclear is the only option Russia has besides losing.

Captain Invictus posted:What's the best way to keep up with this thread? I was over 4000 posts behind on the last one when it was locked, with my method of "read every fifth page" doing a decent job of keeping me up to date on what's going on, but still falling behind the rapid pace of these threads. I tried skipping to the end but often found myself mid-discussion about something and got a little lost. A lot of the discussion is great, there's just too much to read all of it, even when I skip whenever it goes into users bickering about petty unrelated things. Jump to the latest page and live read until you have some sense of whats going on. Eg: The topic right now - Guns are good to have if youre not a criminal, but don't threaten to kill elected officials (with godawful knockoff guns you're bragging about.)

Lumpy the Cook posted:This is as good a place to ask as any, I guess: why are self-proclaimed liberals openly racist towards Russians (and other Slavic peoples) so much of the time, despite their insistence on pretending that they aren't racist in all other situations? As a liberal I notice this too. I think its a leftover from everybody dunking on the soviet union for 50 years.

Talmonis posted:The majority of the Russian people, who give Vlad an 82% approval rating. That's extremely popular for a guy who smugly invades other countries and annexes them after chortling about "little green men," when called on it. The polls aren't rigged he claimed...

PT6A posted:Seriously: where are people being racist against Russians or Slavic people? I literally have no idea what the gently caress you're referring to. People commonly equating the Russian government to the Russian populace. Equivalent to equating the KKK to all Caucasians. Most Russians aren't that big a fan of their government, and most of them are good people who are just along for the ride.

People at Trump rallys want to be part of a group that embraces their racism and sexism instead of being isolated and criticized for their deplorable mindset. Clinton supporters are already morally smug.

Do phone banks regularly call cell phones? I've never gotten a poll or survey and no one I know has either, and we're all cell phone only sorts.
