Apparently the South, or Confederacy, lost because Southerners didn't fight to protect their way of life. The Romans won all their wars because people such as the Gauls and Greeks weren't fighting to protect their way of life. The Ottoman Empire defeated all sorts of peoples who weren't fighting to protect their way of life. The Brits massacred people at Omdurman because they were fighting in the Sudan to protect their way of life unlike the people who lived in the Sudan. Dude, study history and don't fall for fairy tale slogans. America subdued a lot of people who wanted to protect their way of life. Some of them now live on reservations.
Putin says he's fighting Nazis in Ukraine. He sounds like the woke left here and in Canada (see Trudeau). All Putin needs to do now is say he's promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in Ukraine, give some cash to BLM or Kaepernick, and he's gonna be a hero to the woke left and everyone on MSNBC.
The fact is, Putin is savvy and time will tell if he’s a genius. If he succeeds in annexing Ukraine and can assimilate the population then he is a genius. If he returns the citizenry to some semblance of their normal pre war lives, then the insurgence will die and fade. The EU isn’t going to hold his feet to the fire because they are dependent on Russia for fuel and gas. We aren’t going to stop him because we are three presidents removed from an administration that would confront him. Biden didn’t make this country weak, the generations born after WW2 made this country weak. We have no memory of this country uniting and sacrificing for war as one. Since then we’ve always been divided along ideological lines. We’ve become a country that if I don’t agree with you about one thing, then you must be wrong about everything.
Aren't you?
Normal Person "I just don't really care for constant attention on social issues or Biden's inefficient ways rather than talk about masks on little kids, inflation, and the price of gas. And why are we announcing a Supreme Court Nominee during the beginning of a dangerous war?"
Leftist "YOU 17ING NAZI TRUMPER!"
I bet one JoeLee'sSocks fights Russians only on social media. I'm watching our Dawgs play this weekend. I do empathize with Ukrainians and wouldn't mind seeing Putin gone. But, I'm watching baseball this weekend and I'm spending time with my family. I gotta pay for college, a mortgage etc. It sucks being Ukrainian right now. Shouldn't have given up those nukes.
LOL I can just hear Putin talking to one of his aids after one of his buddy buddy exchanges with Trump. Aid: He seems like such a nice guy. Putin: I wouldn't trust that mofo as far as I could throw him. THEN After a convo with Biden. Aid: What did he say ? Putin: 17 if I know.
Stop being hysterical. He used "woke left" twice in one short post, I fairly assumed he is a trumper.
I'm not the hysterical one. I'm just relaying what happens every day all the time everywhere across our country right now. People have never hated each other more than they do right now because of this ********.

The word is Biden gave some intelligence on the Russians to the Chinese in hopes that they would help. They just laughed at him and gave that information right back to the Russians.
Now imitate the right.
Ok?...GO!

My wife calls me stallion and you call me unicorn. I'll take it. Go Dawgs.
Not many are willing to "die for Ukraine." But millions are willing to put their lives on the line to defend the weak, stomp out a ruthless dictator, and protect the freedom of a struggling democracy. Just like the millions upon millions who did so before them.
It's very clear to see many people do not believe in peace through strength. It very clear to see that many people don't have the human empathy to protect the weak. Russia is the single biggest military threat to the United States.
To quote a great man... "We are the leader of the free world whether we want to be or not, therefore, we are the only ones that can preserve the peace...War comes not when the forces of freedom are strong, it is when they are weak that tyrants are tempted... But let our friends and those who may wish us ill take note, the United States has an obligation to it's citizens and the people of the world, never to let those that will destroy freedom, dictate the future course of life on this planet."
Bill Maher bemoans the "woke left." Is he a trumper? How about Dave Chappelle? I mean, is that the new standard? I know you lefties like to paint in broad strokes.
Fair enough on Maher. The jury's out on Dave.
Chappelle is very vocally anti-Trump. He's said that "hate" isn't a strong enough word. But he's also very anti-woke, too.
In other words, he thinks for himself and comes to his own conclusions rather than joining a team.
He's also the funniest 17er of all time. Jus sayin'
Well, a substantial percentage of what used to be the Republican party are praising Putin, a Cold War Era KGB throwback dictator who successfully stopped democracy in Russia years ago so he could remain in power and referring to our federal government as evil so there's that. A substantial part of our nation has gone, or is now just showing, that they are bat$*** crazy. The fundamental difference in Trump and Putin is that Trump was not able to pull of the overturn of the free election that removed him from power. Putin was.
Incredibly small sample because I'm late for a meeting and this is headed to lock, but pick your head up man, this is NOT a left wing problem!
“I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius.’ Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine... Putin declares it as independent,” Trump said. “Oh, that’s wonderful.”
I don't have time to compile all the Tucker Carlson praise for Putin, or the other Repubs who are doing the exact same thing.
