Imagine if Nostr had a Twitter spaces like feature.

Part one was never fully negotiated...

Interesting. Reference. Because it's my understanding that this is the great exit deal that Trump signed and much trumpeted at the time.

It's a side issue because it's not directly related.

The US fucked up in Afganistan. But to be fair, EVERY country that has ever tried to control Afganistan has had their butts kicked. Inc the UK and Russia. The exit was worse than it should have been, but that was Trump, and Trumop was such an outlier idiot that, luckily, what he did isn't viewed as typical of what the US will do in the future. Unless you re-elect him, or someone like him. Do that and the only way the US will be able to draw lines in and sand or water anywhere in the future will be with American blood.

The fact that Americans are, in popular culture, famous for being unable to find places on the map, doesn't mean that it's safe to ignore what happens in such places.

Also, I didn't say it was the most important issue in America today. I'm sure America can multi task.

And the only sons and daughters dying are those of the Ukrainain and Russian victims of Putin.

Point is, even if you don't give a shit about what happens in Ukraine, failing to act will lead to huge costs for you, a US taxpayer, later. If you want to minimise costs, and even if that is the ONLY reason, you should support Ukraine.

The US shouldn't be the 3rd biggest player in this war. There's plenty of European military powers that should be taking responsibility if they don't want what's happening in their back yard to happen.

But because they know the US will immediately step into the role of "world police" and take the lead, they let that happen.

The US then foots most of the bill, paying for corruption, deception, and maybe what's left trickles into the war itself.

It's all a joke.

Feel the Nostr love - get zapped on, not crapped on!
