I newly signed up on Twitter and now follow Tucker. Some of our more ardent resident Neocons have apparently declared JIHAD on Tucker because he does not slavishly support their UKRAINE PROJECT.
I’m still trying to figure out what is driving the blind support for Ukraine. Some otherwise fine people on our side are just reflexively in favor of anything anti-Russia and pro-Ukraine, no matter the consequences for America. The only thing I can figure is that their view of geopolitics wherever Russia is concerned is stuck in the 1980s, and they just don’t realize that everything has changed since then. In order of threat to the United States, our sovereignty, and our vital national interests in 2023, the globalist/WEF cabal ranks #1 by a mile (though our own government is arguably right up there with them), and they’re the ones who did everything imaginable to goad Russia into attacking Ukraine (not that Putin isn’t responsible, but the globalists WANTED this war and were giddy when it started). Our #2 enemy is China, for all the obvious reasons, followed closely by the the broad array of far-left NGOs and traitors within our own country who are trying their best to overload the U.S. with third world dreck to the point of collapse. Russia ranks somewhere far behind all of these.
I loved Tom Clancy novels and Cold War intrigue during the 70s and 80s, was a huge fan of Reagan, and hated the Soviet Union as much as any other patriotic American, but I know the clear difference between the geopolitics of that era and those of today. I just think some on the right still view Russia through that outdated lens and now see the Ukraine situation as the chance to finally “get those Russkies.” It’s a myopic view that ignores the much more complex global situation today and if widely-held, could easily lead to extreme danger for the West and the world. Aside from the heightened risk of nuclear war over a country, Ukraine, that is irrelevant to American national interests, just look at how we’ve already shot ourselves in the head in the maniacal effort to “get those Russkies” (GTR). Trying to “GTR” has led to strengthening Russia’s ability to blackmail Europe with natural gas, and as a direct result of the sanctions that were imposed by Biden to “GTR” the U.S. now faces the looming possibility of the dollar being replaced as the global reserve currency. And to top it all off, the drive to “GTR” drove China and Russia together into a dangerous partnership, something that we tried to prevent for decades.
The people who are cheerleading the draining of our own military and financial resources just so they can finally “get those Russkies” need to wake up and realize they’re being manipulated by the globalists and the traitorous leftist-RINO cabal into helping pave the way for a tyrannical global government.
Be very careful, they are still banning people for their opinions. I was banned recently, no reason given, for words I commonly use on here. I wrote “the N-word” and “pretend men and women” about trannies. Even asked the question that needs to be answered, are black people of lower intellect than whites and asians, because they so often go into a rage of little to no provocation. Be very careful around discussions about that, and don’t get too many followers. I was up to 535, when I was clipped. So my opinions resonated.
It is the same place it was in 2020 to 2022.
I love long form discussions and miss it, have fun.
