Russia's GDP is actually lower than Italy's. They’re dumping about 4% of their GDP into the military, which is way higher than everyone else. I guess if you tank their GDP, you end up weakening their military too. But, uh, that’s not happening tomorrow, or even next month, or maybe even in six months.

So, why did the Russians break up the USSR and pull down the Iron Curtain? Was it because they suddenly realized it wasn't fair to bully other nations? Yeah, right. No, it’s just because they couldn't afford it anymore. We need to get Russia back to that point. We have to weaken them since they're a threat, and the European Union really needs to step up and find a way to counter Russia.

The USA isn't going to go to war for Europe. You can see that clearly now. Trump hit the nail on the head—like, they aren't seriously going to jump into a war over Mexico, right? Now Blinken is out here saying, "Oh, if NATO gets attacked, we'll defend them." It feels like empty rhetoric to me, because he knows deep down it won't happen.

That's why NATO will probably just sit there watching while the bloodshed destroys a country they promised to bring into the fold. Even if sanctions actually work—which, who knows, maybe they will—it could take years. Ukraine, I guess you better be ready for that. You're on your own.

Wait, so you actually think they're staying silent because you totally shut them down with logic?! I don't know, maybe... but I feel like people over there don't really change their minds. They just walk away. Like, they just aren't interested in arguing anymore. I mean, have you ever just gone quiet when someone hit you with a solid point?

I guess the anti-vax crowd is definitely just bigger and louder. People who got vaccinated don't really have much motivation to fight them, honestly. They either did it or they didn't, and they just don't care enough to argue about it.

Kurugol went on TV and claimed a "larger number" of infants were accidentally vaccinated against Coronavirus at medical facilities, and apparently, there's a study coming out soon about it. The Turkish Ministry of Health already announced an administrative investigation.

Yeah, I saw it. They don't have a specific count yet, but they're saying it was just a mistake. But I guess you're implying it's something else entirely

Amanda Flores88 said:What absolute scum.

I mean, how blind do you have to be to just overlook this and call it a coincidence?

I haven't exactly lost my mind in seven days to the point where I can't string together a few normal, on-topic sentences, so this is obviously some other kind of crackdown.

I mean, look at your post where you're claiming they're intentionally vaccinating newborns in Turkey. Right now, there's only one case even being talked about, but you're implying it's some massive, systematic thing happening to infants. 🙄

Honestly, twisting info like that should be getting deleted and strictly penalized, yet your post is still sitting right there without even a warning.

And you're actually complaining about being censored?!

It’s honestly kind of weird that their "all-time greats" lists are always filled with songs everyone already knows by heart. 🙄

I mean, Rolling Stone is a pretty decent, steady magazine. They definitely have some phenomenal eras. But man, the music they pick... I guess it's just how they roll.

Pretty solid list here for us to dig into and chat about. Original link is kind of a pain to scroll through, so I figured I'd just drop a quick rundown right here. Also, here's the Last.fm list with links and release years included, just to keep things easy.

This should definitely work for a new road trip playlist. 🙂 For those long hauls on the highway.
