I've had it up to here with bad faith rhetoric from liberals since this started. I have had a very bad day/year. I'm fuckin diving into storm front and earning my ban.

    The consequences of Afghanistan had 10-15 years to diffuse among media and public consciousness, in 2010 everyone already knew it was a bust, 2021 wasn't a surprise despite the media pantomime

    Because of the intensity of the Ukrainian war the collapse is going to be sudden and swift, and there is no diffusion of a "anti-war" view anywhere in the west, which will lead to some real sharp breaks unlike the slow rot of the Afghan war
