So then, Europe removed their nuclear capability to allow Russia to invade Ukraine? That's the implication you're suggesting.

OMG, how did you even get there?? How did you go from what's in evidence - that Russia is a backstabbing SOB who signed the treaty and then broke it because the treaty left Ukraine defenseless - to this "Europe wanted it to happen" spin? Are you saying that Europe should've known that Russia is a backstabbing SOB?

Sure.

They know the United States is.

Also, don't fucking stawman me.

It's PERFECTLY obvious to me that the assholes in power have been setting up for DECADES for a war with Russia. For DECADES. The West ALWAYS disarms any nation they plan to attack. Always, every goddamned time. They did it to Saddam Hussein, they tried with Bashir al-Assad, they did with Qaddafi in Libya - they were trying with North Korea, and they are doing it in Ukraine.

Countries are STUPID to disarm or they have installed traitors.

It doesn't matter, I expect the United States will collapse in short order if they are STUPID enough to start a war with Russia, and with this gang of Neocon traitors, it's quite possible they are that stupid. Nothing the US has done in foreign policy in the last 20 years has been useful to the United States in any way. Either the mother fuckers are trying to destroy the country, or they are supremely incompetent. It really doesn't matter which.

LOLZ....

Where have I heard that one before?

All it took was a lifetime supply of chicken wings and donuts to bribe Whoopi. I think they have to change to a wide angle lens to even photograph her any more. What a waddling pile of psychotic loud mouth shit.

Probably several times. It's an annoying logical fallacy that if you commit with me, you probably do it repeatedly.

People who "reframe what other people have said", are being dishonest. Jordan Peterson demonstrated this repeatedly with a "news" reporter on the BBC. He won't be invited on again, because he demonstrated how dishonest so-called reporters are.

You can quote me, but do not fucking do some bullshit like "so you're saying..." - no. I said what I said. It's nothing but annoying when people pull this shit to "win an argument". We can have a discussion, but don't bother me with an argument.

That look you get when you realize Switzerland is no longer returning your calls.

AN ANIMATED OVERVIEW

How do you make Putin laugh?

"so you're saying..."

Agreed, but analogies aren't strawman.

An analogy likens one situation to another. A straw man is a mischaracterization of another's argument or position in order to "refute" it. More precisely, a strawman is a logical fallacy in which the opponent's case is overly simplified or otherwise misstated.
