    Maybe (Hopefully?) the experiences of the past 60 years, a new, more tolerant and diplomatic generation in charge with a life spent communicating with people all over the world through the internet, and the reality of watching an incursion like this from a third party will all factor into us actually learning from history so we are not doomed to repeat it.

    Suppose I shouldn’t hold my breath though.

    Why is it good news? They have told us, the world, and their own citizens that all the troop movement was just drills. You believing the voice on the other end of the line?

    Sounds like just news to me.

    It's also an easy excuse for them to say that anyone that didn't evacuate is an enemy combatant, to justify indiscriminate shelling

    These sorts of hotlines existed during the Cold War and were effectively used in the past to avert unintentional escalations that could give rise to the use of nuclear weapons. It’s a good thing this line of communication exists, even if it’s no guarantee to avoid a disaster.

    I scrolled back through all the old tweets (until the beginning of February) from that site and I didn’t think the discrepancy was as much as I anticipated. Yeah maybe Hannity and Bondedo (or whatever the fuck his name is) weren’t #1 every day like before but Occupy Dems was always in the top 10.

    Maybe I was expecting a more pronounced shift away from right wing news, but the tweets left me unimpressed.

    Launching missiles and fighting around the largest nuclear plant in Europe seems not ideal

    Did something change the calculus of why the dollar is the benchmark currency? No? This is the way they have to trade. The two biggest consumers are still the EU and US. This euro and dollar will keep their standing. Crypto will be the real threat to all fiat currencies but even then I expect it will be the us turkey stable coin that takes over.

    Listened to this: it was a weird roundabout way to segue into his own history of criticizing NATO expansion towards Russian borders.

    By the end he was musing about the ides of March and directly appealing to the Russian people to assassinate Putin lol.
