Russians aren’t smart but they are cruel. The entire point is to frustrate and harass while playing innocent. “It’s not an official Russian ship. It’s merchant vessels making lots of independent mistakes.”
They aren’t smart and don’t like being outsmarted by moves like… checks notes stopping all Russian merchant vessels to stop random independent incidents.
It’s all a show and Russian needs to be stopped by any means necessary. They use politeness as a weapon, hiding behind decorum with weak lies. Fuck them and grind their economy back into dust. Let east Asia conquer them again and help Russia become useful once more.
I think she got so many votes because she wasn’t Trump. And thats it. She was so frustrating as a candidate who was “super Law and Order DA from liberal land, California. She’s the best of both worlds!”
Christ she was so bad at being charismatic. I liked her when she made fun of Trump so hard he refused to ever debate her again. But then she tried to play both sides and toured with Liz Cheney. It’s like, the entire message of her failed campaign will look at all the answers but the right one: she wasn’t an active evil fascist. She just supported fascism her whole life and learned to make concessions to sound more progressive. Gen Z will learn to hate the DNC.
