Appeasement didn't work with Hitler.

@andrewstroehlein I seriously think that he touted the idea of swapping Greenland for parts of Ukraine with Putin and this plan required Putin to take Greenland, hence the numerous overt warnings that Greenland is vulnerable to Russia, but Putin isn't honouring his part of the plan despite Trump's desperate 'subtleties'. In other words Putin again made the orange numbskull look even more of an idiot, and Zelensky will get the blame for it... again.

@andrewstroehlein
just read that our 13 glorious German army members who were sent to Greenland will be returned now: mission accomplished. Mr Merz is getting cold feet. LOL

while Macron wants to initiate further steps - translate with deepl (it's a short article)

@andrewstroehlein Whether there is open conflict or not trust in the US is now gone and a new world order is in the process of being arranged. Carney has spoken of it openly. Europeans are preparing for it quietly, largely because they're already engaged in defending Ukraine and biding their time. Some Americans get it

@andrewstroehlein These politicians did not study history and their language.

@aapis @andrewstroehlein @Lazarou IIRC that's never worked because, according to Sun Tsu (etc.) 'a dictator will burn the house to rule over the ashes' or something...
The only thing that actually works is a people's movement that rebuilds from the ashes. The bit in between is what always gets recorded by the victorious, hence the anarchists and radicals written out of the history of Europe after WW2

@andrewstroehlein The only way to deal with any of these people is to break their nose.

@sjcooke66 @andrewstroehlein @Lazarou it only didn't work last time because we let some of them live

Appeasement never works against abusers, and Trump is one of them.

sjcooke66@mastodon.social

@aapis @andrewstroehlein @Lazarou I would argue that, for example, post-WW2 European reconstruction has been thwarted by USA and CCCP interventionism; those who survived were forced to choose West or East and live or die accordingly.Now the the Putin/Trump 'colloquy' is 'exposed', then perhaps the 'European Experiment' has a chance to flourish...

@andrewstroehlein European nations need to match Trump's tariffs and add 1%. It will hurt the economy on both sides, and it will help the Chinese economy. Trump and the Republicans will cave.

Say no, and punch him on the nose with sanctions and do business with South America (and China).

@andrewstroehlein WHY is it so fucking necessary to keep posting pictures of the felon? Do people get off on re-traumatizing victims who survived the same kind of SA he and his cohorts imposed on girls who couldn't defend themselves?

I was one of those girls. Every damn time y'all put that ugly mug on this site, I'm reminded of what was done to me. EVERY TIME.

Should I leave so you can continue to ignore our pain and the constant reminders of our victimization?

PLEASE STOP.

"Appeasement didn't work with Putin."

I fully get the appeasement of Hitler and Trump. When did the international community appease Putin? I am trying to think of an example.
