Nah, tons of leftists right here on this site used to be libs. In the U.S. at least, I'd say most leftists went through a lib phase at some point.
I don't think calling libs fascists-in-waiting, moderate fascists, etc. moves many people in the right direction. People match spite with spite. It should be reserved for those we have no hope of bringing around, not us 10 years ago.
Just go through and count the usage of kkkanadians.
The horror!
What is it you think vapes emit?

Since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine
It really is something how almost all English-langage media uses the phrase "full-scale invasion" in lockstep.
From a strictly military perspective, restrictions never help.
"From a strictly military perspective" is a nonsense framing, especially in a relatively limited war like this. Militaries are for (1) resolving political questions when peaceful attempts at resolution break down, and (2) deterring other countries from walking away from serious attempts at peaceful resolution. There is no world where you set aside the ultimate political goals; that's the whole point!
The modest seizure of Russian territory may strengthen Ukraine’s bargaining position in negotiations, ease Russian pressure on Ukrainian defenses in the Donbas, or weaken Russian President Vladimir Putin politically, but it is unlikely to change the military picture in a significant way.
Should have dispensed with the saber-rattling and started here. This isn't going to change the overall direction of the war; at most it will prolong the inevitable.
These are the last days of WWI, where people keep dying despite everyone knowing that the war's end is imminent.
The fact that ukrainians are still fighting to this day shows they want to be independent.
This is a post about conscription, where people who do not want to fight are forced to
It doesn’t matter who did what before
this didn’t start on February 22, 2022, but in 2014
History starts and stops exactly when it best suits my argument
"All my takes are so perfect no one but a troll could disagree with me"
Go "do your own research" then lmao
You reject the overwhelming scientific consensus that climate change is caused by humans, then you want to pull debatelord shit about the history of climate science forecasts. Fuck off.
claims climate change isn't caused by humans
links to article about climate change being caused by humans
I'm owned
You're talking nonsense. Yes, living people are currently causing climate change. Those most responsible have names and addresses.
The world should have burned down to the groun… to nothingness 10 times over according to all the specialists/scientists.
This is just embarrassingly ignorant. The climate is deteriorating faster than scientists predicted, not slower.
Your answer to OP's question is denial and a refusal to actually investigate the situation.
The point I bring up is that the peace terms are just going to get worse. The only way Ukraine turns this around is expanding this into a great power war, which is insanity, especially in the age of nuclear weapons.
