Dear Americans, be prepare to get screwed! - Lemmy.World

That’s all cool and nice, but let’s see what happens to the prices when Taiwan gets invaded.
Had a friend of mine say that this wouldn’t happen because “Trump hates China so he’ll defend Taiwan”
Ah the poor soul! Having to hear about the Ukraine war!!! He’s just too precious, how dare we inconvenience him by keep this in the news???

Even my girlfriend, who doesn’t really do politics, turned to me and said “but surely Putin then just goes after his next target like Hitler did”

It’s pretty telling when someone who struggles with politics in general understands it better than a guy who spent time in Afghanistan.

Ah… appeasement. Certainly that worked out for everybody involved…

“Peace for our time!”

Neville Chamberlain.
