Man. You have one incredibly myopic view of history

You are not as intelligent as you tell yourself you are

Enjoy your comfort, bought with the blood of others who you pretend to care about

Some deep reflection on your part would go a long way toward increasing both your happiness and your ability to actually have a beneficial effect on the world

I mean that, although you will probably insist (I’ve noticed that about you and the people you associate yourself with), that the most important thing is that you FEEL like you are “on the right side of history”.

Thank you for spending so much time thinking about a throw away comment I made

Do you still believe that your insistence on being right about an issue that springs from a time long before you were born is going to somehow convince anyone to see things exactly as you demand?

If you cannot even engage in discussion with the hope that it might spur some small semblance of rationality, then perhaps you are contributing to the suffering of people who you may have no direct connection with whatsoever

This article seems to be based around an assumption that the entire story of what is going on in Ukraine is obvious on its face. What is obvious is that the level of smoke and mirrors employed in this situation is on a generational scale. There are adults who were not alive to witness the last time we witnessed this level of obfuscation, control of the narrative, and use of the age old tactic of distraction

All of that is to say that this is part of the overall effort, a position which is further supported by the fact that this article is printed by the esteemed simplicius. You know, that renowned author of insightful commentary that we all know so well
