@Cappyarmy This way the western civilization won't win another war, at least in the near future. Everybody saw our weaknesses and would act accordingly.

I’m just going off early reports from associated Press, the hill , Al Jazeera. Maybe they’re wrong! Maybe it’s a stalling tactic . I’m saying as it stands now, it doesn’t look good.

@MichaelMatcha @elonmusk Only o few hundred years separate us from the bow and arrow, a Type II could very well be a million years apart from us.

@elonmusk Aliens would not tell the difference. To a Type II civilization, our use of carbon-based rocket fuel would seem as primitive as how we look at a bow and arrow.

@01Spidey01 @elonmusk In their mind it could very well be so, since they don't know any better.

Were those "very young" women able to live by themselves or take a job, or would you expect their families to keep them indefinitely? What is very young now wasn't considered as such during those times. And "older men" is misleading since very few men got to get too old. Many of those "older men" were usually widowed, their previous wives being chosen by their parents or councilors, even if she was an ugly inbreed.

@AlexBVB83 @TheLaurenChen Also, you falsely claiming that arranged is "equalizing" men and women is very misleading Very young women were essentially "sold" into essentially permanent (as they can't divorce) slavery to much older men who have full power over them When men are provided with free sex target

And men were treated the same. You think the vast majority of men could be with whom they loved? No, it was arranged marriage. Don't worry for now no one in the West will force women to do anything, until the western civilization will collapse because of low birth rate and be replaced by more, let's say "conservative" people from the Middle East and Africa.

@TheLaurenChen 1) There's a big difference between men telling women to do smth, and men telling men. 2) Historically women were treated like objects to breed for life, and they weren't respected. When men had full life, when sometimes getting drafted to do heroic things. Societal hypocrisy.

@gordon758 @RasmusJarlov I would argue no, sure a few got rich, but the vast majority of europeans were broke poor. And last time i checked Gengis Khan, Tamerlane, the Islamic Caliphate, or the barbary pirates were not europeans.

@RasmusJarlov Has Europe ever shown respect for Africa and Latin America? There has never been anything but exploitation and oppression. Deep down, Europe still carries the genes of pirates. Didn’t you amass your wealth by plundering the whole world?

In the future, there will be three major powers in the world: China, USA, EU. Neutral countries will move as much as possible towards the EU as their preferred partner because both China and the USA treat other countries disrespectfully and try to extort them. Europe will be the only great power and market to turn to if you want to have an equal and fair relationship. Canada is already moving towards Europe for this exact reason. India and Japan will also form a closer relationship with Europe. This is what soft power means. MAGA replies in the comment section will prove the point.

@FraterSeverus @BiankaB12 They had no realistic choice. No launch codes and a very high risk to be bombed in to oblivion by both Russia and the US before they got the chance to reprogram them.

I hope Americans understand that Trump pulling out of NATO is the start of the Chinese world order. Europe will run to China real quick and start having heavy trade/diplo relations. There is no doubt in my mind. What does US have then? Cuba and Venezuela? Oh... and Israel.

@Cappyarmy Pulling out of NATO isn't necessary, since article 5 is more of a suggestion to do something unspecified. As a romanian I'm deeply grateful for your presence here, but I won't hold it against you if you decide to live.

Trump is talking about pulling out of NATO while at the same time we just deployed the 101st airborne division to a few miles from Ukraines borders in Romania. International relations makes about as much sense as interpersonal relationships do to me.

From what I remember JD Vance was particularly scandalized when the pro-Russian candidate was (rightfully) disqualified from the elections. Had to battle the tidal wave of disinfo Musk u leashed upon this platform alongside my Romanian neighbors. Glad it’s over, it was NOT a fun time to be on Twitter.

Ia mai terminați cu “mvai, prostul de Nicușor e sluga SUA, marioneta lui Trump, d-aia îi primește pe americani cu avioanele pe MK”. Voi știți ce-i ăla un parteneriat strategic? Înseamnă că atunci când partenerul îți cere ajutorul, chiar asta faci. Îl ajuți! Nu-i zici “muie,bă!’😬

@PaulConRO Weird that Romanians don't like Trump, but I guess Romania is far left like most of Europe and the EU. As for America, he is doing very good things for us.

PaulC@PaulConRO·
Why did Romania grant the US access to its military bases (with the condition that no offensive actions against Iran are allowed, only refueling and transport)? Because the US has always been our ally. It welcomed us into NATO back when we were poor and didn't really have any strong friends. The US is bigger than Trump. That orange clown will eventually be gone, but the US will still be there. Our partnership is with the US, not with Trump. And since the American people elected him, we have to deal with him until he leaves office. They've helped us in many ways, so this is the least we can do. Most of our weapons are American (Patriot, HIMARS, F-16) and Israeli (LAROM launchers, Elbit-made systems, etc.), and we need support, ammo, and maintenance. It's not like we could've refused anyway. 🙂

If this war in Iran ends in anything but regime change it’ll be a loss for the US. China and Russia will help Iran rebuild their missile force twice as fast. Iran didnt need a navy to threaten the region and tie the US down.

Romania is set to become one of the European Union’s most important gas producers. The Neptun Deep field in the Black Sea contains an estimated 100 billion cubic meters of natural gas, with production expected to start around 2027.

The people cheering the submarine attack on the IRIS Dena seem to forget that the U.S. Navy has surface vessels that could have captured the ship, and held the crew (or allowed them to defect). But apparently, it was important to prove that the Navy can still torpedo a frigate.

SUA este în Iran exact în situația în care se găsește Rusia cu Ucraina: NU își poate permite să piardă acest război. Diferența este că Rusia tratează războiul din Ucraina cu o răceală fermă dar calmă, aproape chirurgicală, în timp ce SUA lasă impresia că e controlată de un bătrânel ce a amestecat viagra cu cocaina primită ca tribut de la venezueleni..... Și, ca și în cazul Ucrainei, Iranul nu poate să câștige acest război decât cu un preț uriaș: distrugerea propriei sale țări într-un război lung și epuizant. Acum întrebarea este dacă Morcoveață, care pare tot mai mult rupt de realitate, va căuta pretexte să dea o nucleară..... Pentru că el, personal, mai are o problemă: politic nu își permite nici să piardă, nici să lungească războiul. (Bogdan Duca)
