Trump is siding with Russia because he wants to do to Canada what Russia did to Ukraine https://t.co/V5wHGrBerp

Yes. See my post below about dumbass Ian Welsh and his ilk. Those types love Putin so much they can’t see how their embarrassing worship of tinpot Stalin justifies other invasions — like the US pulling a Ukraine on Canada.
I know, it’s great!
This morning I listened to all or part of 296 new (to me) songs. Of those, I liked 10.
This took about an hour and a half. And this is how you find all that good new music that many people claim does not exist.
11 relaxing ways to live like a White Lotus character in L.A. — sans the snakes and murder.
Well then no thank you. The snakes and murder are not optional.
By the by, according to the Ian Welsh logic of why Russia “deserves” to dominate and commit genocide upon Ukraine, the US also “deserves” to do the same to Canada.
Not so fun to be a right clown when there’s the prospect of Hellfire missiles hitting your house, is it? Horseshoe theory is real; both the radical right and the radical left kneel before Putin. What amazing times we live in.
I hate that my career field has been made into another shitty development job, except that to be competent I have to know 10x as much as the average developer.
I mean, that’s easy for me. But it still sucks.

According to utter idiot clowns like Ian Welsh, the Russo-Ukrainian war is completely the fault of the US. Russia and Ukraine had nothing to do with it and it all could’ve been avoided if Ukraine had just bowed down to Putin when he demanded it. Merely give him what he wanted and all would’ve been peachy. No country has agency besides the US, of course. And no individual people either.
Right.
It never seems to click with doofuses like Welsh that their belief that the US is incompetent, ineffective and omnipotent all at the same time does not make any goddamn sense. It’s similar to the common Dem refrain that Obama was simultaneously Jesus Christ, Norman Schwarzkopf, Einstein and a tiny helpless little baby with absolutely no power all at once. Ian Welsh (and many like him) both loathe the United States and wish they could be Americans. That explains a lot of the cognitive dissonance.
The rest is explained by garden variety stupidity.
