@kingjamsx @LBC So more people died over the course of 900 years and the wars that spanned an entire continent than have died here in a few decades , you don’t say……

@LBC Whites have killed more people with swords during the medieval times than Blacks have with knives in the UK. Ten million times more.

‘When it’s white kids it’s a social problem, when it’s black kids you try to say there’s something wrong with us.’ Comedian and journalist Ava Vidal calls out the racial double standard in how people are responding to the Clapham youth link-ups.

@JenniferMc93892 @SaltyGoat17 @Flynn2022 Brilliant , start a fire then try and charge people for a bucket of water .

@SaltyGoat17 @Flynn2022 That is awesome. Only Trump would come up with that. The Europeans turn their backs on us and Trump comes up with a good pay back.

“Instead of Iran charging $2M/vessel going through the Strait, the U.S. will charge a $2M escort fee for every vessel, which is about $9B a month or $100B in revenue.” “We will waive that fee for any country that participates in the coalition to open up the Strait.” BRILLIANT!!

@LemmyKilmi35258 @AaronBastani Chelyabinsk here you come , Babushkas beware ! .

@KarimEdvard11 @AaronBastani Oh don't tempt me! Russian women!!! And Russian cities!! Paradise

Increasingly ridiculous that Russian clubs are banned by UEFA and FIFA, but Israeli ones aren’t.

@HeadWarriorTWM Intersectionality.

Words we need to stop using. Identity Neurodiversity Keep it going.

@LemmyKilmi35258 @AaronBastani Well property is cheap and there’s probably a fair number of unattached females you could always move and become part of the culture.

@KarimEdvard11 @AaronBastani I do! And that's why I love Russia: they refuse the global group-think Also extraordinary history, art, literature etc Astonishing country

@LemmyKilmi35258 @AaronBastani But I don’t value it .

@KarimEdvard11 @AaronBastani Exactly - their values are different to yours You could choose to respect and enjoy the difference That's what valuing 'diversity' means

@LemmyKilmi35258 @AaronBastani Yes they refused the decline in Church going and the increase in abortion , oh no wait….. Still theyve rolled back laws on domestic abuse as part of their claim to be a great world culture.

@KarimEdvard11 @AaronBastani Love Russia One of the three or four truly great cultures on Planet Earth And they refuse the nonsense of current Western moralising Stop using sport to try to impose stupidity and wickedness on the world!

@jamesforpeace @AaronBastani So like the proximity of Georgia then?.

@KarimEdvard11 @AaronBastani Ukraine was a red line for them given history and proximity for Moscow

@AtlantaStu @mdubowitz @DanaPerino @FoxNews @AmericaNewsroom There are US aircraft using UK bases right now ,rather than build a consensus for action Trump and his Admin has seemed more interested in shitting on our war dead hitting us with random punitive tariffs and threatening the territorial integrity of member states ,5D chess I guess

@KarimEdvard11 @mdubowitz @DanaPerino @FoxNews @AmericaNewsroom Yer here is the US fighting the greatest contributor to worldwide terrorism, and Europe won’t even allow America to use our bases There is a completely different mindset among European leaders than there was in 2001 NATO has become a 1-way street with US doing all the giving

Our major non-NATO allies like Israel, the UAE and KSA are stepping up on Iran. Our NATO allies need to as well. But it would be a catastrophic mistake for the U.S. to abandon NATO. My discussion with @DanaPerino on @FoxNews @AmericaNewsroom

@Anmol_anomly @kamilkazani Which one ? The first one failed almost immediately after Russia sent fresh Army ‘volunteers’ to take Donetsk airport.

@kamilkazani Did Ukriane made any serious attempts to implement Minsk agreements? The ones Merkel admitted were ruse, meant to just buy time to arm Ukriane?

You see, I lived through all these pre-war years in the Russophone space. And I remember the general vibe of imbecile bully smugness (we are stronger & do whatever we want). Look at white housers, and you will see what I mean Fundamentally, yes, it's primarily Russia's fault

@coccinellanovem MAP Adventures, formerly trading as PIE Experiences presumably? .

“care home…was run by a company called MAP Adventures…Liam Ramsay & Stephen Hurst, 2 former soldiers in their 40s…had been recruited to look after vulnerable children despite holding 7 previous convictions between them, including four violent offences” lbc.co.uk/article/vulner…

@AtlantaStu @mdubowitz @DanaPerino @FoxNews @AmericaNewsroom So the US can for position assets and use bases both in my country and on our overseas possessions as refuelling and rearming for attacks , world wide terrorism still exists which was why the US was able to call on support from NATO after 9/11 .

@mdubowitz @DanaPerino @FoxNews @AmericaNewsroom I keep hearing that America pulling out of NATO would be “a catastrophic mistake.” Yet no one can explain WHY it is a mistake - especially given that the reason for NATO’s existence (stop Soviet aggression) no longer exists

@SnoopDougieDoig @AaronBastani Yep they are not in Europe.

@AaronBastani I'm coming round to the view that Israel should be in the Asian federation.

@LemmyKilmi35258 @AaronBastani Yes those lovable drug cheats are a real lose .

@AaronBastani Yes! Let Russian back into international sport We miss them

@DivineQuad @PWenger53593 @AaronBastani A surge of death after Girkin and other Moscow based Terrorists and ‘Volunteers’ from the Russian army went in then a smaller flow of casualties due to artillery shared pretty evenly between both sides , most DPR casualties prior to the invasion were from unexploded ordinance .

@PWenger53593 @AaronBastani You can go and read about the people in eastern Ukraine and the Donbas, post 2014. And the volumes of deaths to the ethnic Russian population since the coup. That conflict is far more layered than what media makes out.

@jamesforpeace @AaronBastani To start a war that has increased his border with NATO ? .

@AaronBastani Helps Putin’s argument that there’s a globally domineering US empire that Russia understandably does not want to be surrounded by, hence trying to force Ukraine into neutrality.

@BradfemlyWalsh Exactly can’t have people wearing trainers rather, it’s dangerous.,,,,,

@KarimEdvard11 Firm but fair

Maths teacher sacked for getting drunk on a school trip and forcing a girl to lick yoghurt* off his cock. OR my form tutor accidentally killed himself doing DIY, it came out he'd been knocking off the Cookery teacher for 20 years. *Of course I still remember the alleged flavour

@synapticwisdom @Object_Zero_ They would have merely repeated Calders action on a larger scale , 30 years earlier taking a few enemy vessels was regarded as a good result by 1805 Admiral Calder was Court Marshalled for it .

@Object_Zero_ If the British fleet was so superior, would they not have done fine by lining up conventionally?

Britain used to be led by men like this. • Sent to stop an assembling invasion force • Face impossible odds • Invent new battle doctrine on the spot • Lead from the front (suicide) • Win decisively! • Capture ALL enemy ships • Unexpectedly achieve total naval supremacy • Unexpectedly achieve global hegemony that lasts for 200 years. • Bleed out onboard your shattered flagship HMS Victory No other man has ever experienced such an afternoon.

@VKAbramowicz @Object_Zero_ Nelson and Collingwood at the head of the British columns were aiming to take out their opposite numbers in the Franco-Spanish line disrupting their system of top down command while trusting to the mission command favoured by British to finish the Battle.

@Object_Zero_ Reflecting my absolute ignorance of combat in the days of sail, but why wasn’t this a disaster for the English? It looks like they were setting themselves up to have their ‘T’ crossed. All the enemy ships can bring their broadsides to bear while the UK can only use forward guns?
