I would be extremely okay with having this in my life

That’s my whole point, only money has been given. US troops should have been deployed to Ukraine.

No, but they did promise protection. So far, there has been no protection given, only money.

Problem with talking about USA in this conflict is everytime immediately assumes that anyone accusing USA of anything is automatically supporting Russia.

Did I stutter?

It is not possible to do that. I cannot sleep when pasta is around. I must have it all inside my tummy.

So did USA.

Congratulations nonetheless. Everyone fucks up the first time. They will get it the next time.

NATO expansionism is the root cause of this war. NATO instigated this war and Russia got baited.

I agree with you on this but with some nuance. This thinking is correct and should be used on individual level. However, time has shown us that most humans are stupid and will resort to herd mentality. So, the pride quickly turns into nationalism.

We are talking about the war/defence industry which is a much newer thing when countries started selling weapons and such to other countries on a large scale and during their own non-war times, like the last 50 years of American history. If countries sold weapons to each other during WW2, it was because they were involved in the war themselves. Nowadays, it is just selling weapons and watching others burn each other down.

Predictions have been going on since forever about so many things. Doesn’t make it any truer. China is going to annex Taiwan, Russia is going to attack Europe, Iran is weeks away from nukes. Funnily, there are no predictions about USA doing stuff.

Everything will crash as a panic knee jerk reaction but the real assets will recover much quicker.

Chinese economy is the absolute shitter with no signs of improvement

Not Euros, Euros will crash with the dollar. Buy something of real value, like commodities or real estate.

The smart ones. Not the people who have invested in Nvidia in the last 2-4 years.

It is a war industry for the Western countries because the war is never on their soil. It is a defence industry for everyone else.

That would hurt

Only the gullible are proud of their country. The real patriots are critical of the mistakes of the country.

Americans are in general stupid. I can say that because they elected Trump.

The tariffs have not even shown their effects yet. Wait till next year and you will see people burning down the White House.

I have taken long breaks in my education (a pretty good one) due to being lazy depressed (being depressed but not sad per se, having executive dysfunction).

My friends have moved on from college and I am stuck. It always feels that my problems were not as important or as big to waste years of my life.

I have accepted the fact that it is my life and it is not a race but sometimes I do feel that it would have been much simpler and better if I had just completed my education while being miserable because I was miserable anyways.

I am kind of rambling because I don’t think such a deep and vast topic can be explained in a comment.
