The least we owe Ukraine is full support, and to do this we need a stronger Nato

Those who advocate less support for Ukraine and more pressure on it to negotiate, inclusive of accepting painful territorial renunciations, like to repeat that Ukraine simply cannot win the war against Russia. True, but I see exactly in this the greatness of Ukrainian resistance: they risked the impossible, defying pragmatic calculations, and the least we owe them is full support, and to do this, we need a stronger Nato – but not as a prolongation of the US politics.

    At the risk of attracting :funny-clown-hammer:, it's like when everyone liked Destiny for a week because he was dunking on Nazis. He was never good and has since revealed that he's pretty bad, but man he fucking destroyed Jordan Peterson that one time.

      zizek is useful as an intellectual against other more reactionary figures.

      zizek is a feral trash possum given human form, a stray dog with mange that mauls pigs in back alleys, a roaming scavenger that gorges himself on overturned dumpsters filled with urban mulch. we should never look to a syphilitic hyena covered in its own vomit as a source of credible theory

      you send zizek after figures that need to be humiliated and would otherwise waste a better leftist's time. zizek is only motivated by intellectual games and not practicality

          I have a special place in my heart for hating assholes privileged enough to play with their belly buttons instead of doing anything, especially when they pretend they're better than anyone who is doing something
