Summary
According to the Telegraph, a leaked confidential Trump peace plan delivered to President Zelenskyy has caused panic in Kyiv.
The proposal would grant the U.S. half of revenues from Ukraine’s resource extraction and licensing, effectively amounting to economic colonization.
The Telegraph noted, “Trump’s demands would amount to a higher share of Ukrainian GDP than reparations imposed on Germany at the Versailles Treaty, later whittled down at the London Conference in 1921, and by the Dawes Plan in 1924.”
Simultaneously, the plan would absolve Russia for its invasion that has caused hundreds of thousands of deaths.
Politicians gain their power from The People. It is alarming as an American that nearly half the country actually wants this to happen because “the other side is getting hurt” without recognizing that they too will suffer alongside the people they are told to dislike.
What was that infamous quote from POTUS LBJ again? “Convince the poorest white that he’s better than the richest black so you can pick his pockets clean [paraphrasing]”
More accurate:
The “leaders” of the human race have a long history of shaping "the people"s lives so that they suseptible to being convinced by poloticians. It’s like fighting against the addictive powers of social media. They hire the best to make it addictive. Many people just can’t mentally compete. That said, voter turnout was 64%, so only 32% ish voted for this. And a large part were probably dupped by the messaging.
No, it’s worse. I urge you to look up the Georgia law (the Jim Crow kind) that may have been used to literally TAKE tens if not hundreds of thousands of votes away by declaring - just like that - that everyone you disagree with or who looks different than you (in your county and assuming you live there, it only applies to Georgia currently) is not fit to vote.
I’m serious. They fucking planned this.
Why would I want to make myself sadder. Lol. It’s kind of like deflatgate in American football. If you take top people in any profession, and put them in a competition with a serious reward, they will always try to “stretch” the rules in thier favor any way they can.
