Welcome back, John! Glad to see you are feeling up to posting!

I agree that public relations is a part of warfare. However, Zelensky doing a photo shoot for a fashion magazine will probably do nothing to convince those opposed to supporting Ukraine to change their minds, and probably leave some who DO favor supporting Ukraine scratching their heads. I'm curious as to how the beleaguered people of Ukraine will react?

I'm still alive just barely I've been watching TV and there's lots of stuff I'd like to post about but I'm currently unable to deal with this with a number of things so this is a so this is a good first attempt you may hear from me soon if I'm lucky

Hang in there, John! Get well soon!

The constant funneling of billions of dollars in US taxpayer money into Ukraine as part of the West's proxy war against Russia, to prop up a puppet who has established himself to be both a dictator and a coward, all in the name of "saving" a democracy that no longer exists (when in actuality it is for the sake of the NWO), is one of the biggest money laundering operations of our time, right up there with man-made climate change.

Isn't that what that Cool guy has been saying for months now?

Excellent find.

As a white male, I know I am in trouble.

Do you think the Chinese will blink if Pelosi visits Taiwan?

Yes, thanks for the link. That is a good overall framework to describe how important a man can be, regardless of his flaws.

Yes. I posted this a couple of weeks ago on the Societal Collapse thread - "Like him or hate him, he forced those on the left to reveal their true selves. He also exposed the two-tiered level of justice in this country. Law no longer matters, only the people enforcing it."

Unfortunately, I think the world as a whole is beyond redemption, and that Trump was a respite, not a savior. The whole global system will collapse under the weight of its own corruption and immorality. The few good men we have left are not enough to stem that tide. We have to hit bottom before things can truly be made better, and we've a ways to go for that to happen.

I said it once a while back - preparing for what's coming is more than growing your own food, moving away from cities, etc. It is also arming your children and grandchildren with the spiritual and intellectual tools they'll need to rebuild, because the burden will fall on them, not us. Homeschooling with a classical liberal arts curriculum is probably the only way that will happen, as even the best schools these days have forgotten the real purpose of education.
