Capitalism: If you have two cows, your landlord decides they're tenants late on rent,
then your landlord sells your cow, buys a bull.
Then your landlords shoots your other cow and tells you it was attacking him and acted only on self defense.
As punishment, he gets to eat your cow.
You protest and then he shoots you.

Who did?
And how did that cause a clinic bombing?
Are you the culprit?
...as the US.
To answer Pete Buttigeg:
That's the point! We're not Benjamin Netanyahu who enjoys targeting everyone but soldiers and police officers.
You know those Russian soldiers dropped their weapons during the October revolution.
If American soldoers are wise, they'd do the same.
The best thing about the cartoon was Optimus Prime being 'best tv dad', megatron/galvatron's evil laugh and speeches, soundwave's voice, starscream scheming, starscream being killed off for being a whiny backstabber too many times, the art, the touch and the fact that all of the supporting cast that were good in their own right.
By absolute bore I also include her looks. I understand she is supposed to be pretty, but stone-faced is not my thing. Even with her licking-lip image I imagine her eyes staring at the latest gucci dress laced with diamonds or maybe even Bumblebee, but not a man.
Right. I would not call it unprovoked, but the full scale bombardment is all to support Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

You can leave out the 'puppet' in your statement, but keep Russian. Again, Ukraine is half-Russian, half-Polish. To say that a Ukrainian president is a puppet of either country is like saying that an Australian president is a British puppet, with the difference being that Australia is a settler colony while Ukraine is/was a border dispute solution.

Yanukovich walked away from the deal because the EU made too many demands that would have resulted in millions of job losses. It was a bad trade deal and so he walked away from it hoping for renegotiations of a deal that would not completely ruin his country.

"cracked down". What does that even mean? Who gets to decide a protest has been "cracked down"? Has anybody ever written about protests being "cracked down" during the Palestine liberation protests? Covid protests? Jan 6 2020 protests?

The insurgency, let's just use the teminology used when it happens in an Anglo nation shall we?, consisted of terrorist attacks by snipers that shot Ukrainian police officers dead and civilian protesters, who wanted their country to go into financial ruin, dead.
People that have come forward saying they were the instigators of this violence were neither part of the Ukrainian law enforcement, nor part of the protest groups, but foreign mercenaries who got paid or part of ultra-right factions. It's a more believable story than what the other side claims, where police officers who are trained to uphold stability mow down their own colleagues and civilians for stability's sake without refusal. It's more believable as the first story doesn't have snipers shooting their own snipers dead just to create chaos. That wouldn't make any sense. People do not tend to kill people of their own group, not just because those are their friends they can rely on, but also puts them in an extremely vulnerable paranoid position of themselves being next. How would you know when to stop? How would you know you're not on the list? Would you be killed from orders of their higher ups? Collaegues out for revenge of their friends? -
And all of this doesn't change the fact that Ukraine was banning all things related Russia after the coup and mowing down indepedence voters at the ballot station in the Donbass region.
I saw the Siskel and Ebert review and I agree with their point that there was a lack of awe in the movie that E.T. and close encounters of the third kind had.
This movie had dinosaurs being dangerous at almost all times. Only a moment after they awed a stampede was heading for them. The danger felt convoluted. Tacked in. And it would have been a good time to question the old man about park safety.
The old man never get punished for his reckless behavior. I don't get why my downvoters would disagree with me. Would you downvoters really have acted so calmly against the old man when the park goes haywire?
It didn't. I managed to stay until one of the autobots had to take a leak. I was too insulted at that point. Megan Fox came across as an absolute bore, but of course the guy has to stammer and stumble and try to impress the dead weight.
If she's 70 years old then that's a good look.
.... .... Alright, I looked it up. She's 55 years old.
For all the putdowns of women's looks,
I would rather see this than to see Jeff Bezos marry a 25 year old.
I consider this to be a good trend, except for the bimbo lips and ~~possible~~ botox.
Whatever Oprah Winfrey did looks much better.
