Gov't must set good examples for the use of power. Commies did not set any good examples at all. We are being manipulated into extremism by the over centralization of power. Power to the people begins with the right to privacy, cut off the personal data flow to AI.
Good point, both sides are enacting policies of their personnel preferences that are increasingly falling into the category of extremism.
Russians have already taken Ukraine territory. Trump did not give any territory away. They gave it back to Ukraine 2014 with the Minsk accords. Being the idiot that he is, Zelensky listened to Boris Johnson telling him to go to war against Russia and NATO will give him weapons and support him. Putin is not going to give those territories back 2nd time out. Why would he? Over 1,500,000 dead military and civilians on both sides. No reason to give it back. Russians are rolling the Ukrainians on the front lines. It is Zelensky who needs a peace deal. Had Ukraine given up dreams of NATO membership and treated the Russians living in Ukraine fairly and did not kill them, Putin would not have invaded Ukraine. Remember, US, Ukraine, Russia was in Turkey for 2 months and Putin waited for a deal. But, Joe Biden just threatened Russia with sanctions. So, no agreement on Ukraine neutrality and we have this proxy war.
If this keeps up, Ukrainian casualties will reach 1,000,000 dead troops. Russia can still raise the intensity level of its attack. Actually, Trump is a genius. Looks like he might have convinced Putin to give up $300 billion in Russian monies for Ukraine reconstruction provided part of that $300 billion go to the newly annexed areas of Ukraine occupied by the Russians. Also, Trump secured access to Ukraine minerals to pay for the $350 billion given by the US to Ukraine. So, US will get its monies back in kind. 100,000% better than Joe Biden giving Ukraine US tax dollars with nothing back. This still needs to be put on paper but, looks like a pretty good deal so far. Who else, could have swung such a good deal? Zelensky better wise up and sign it. He is not getting a much better deal.
