Democracy is based.
I poke fun at tyrants, propaganda and useful idiots.

Tesla lie about their range (25% off) 🤯
Polestar 3 (Volvo) beats the Model 3.

Just how much deceit can be around this one person (E.M.) ???

Norwegians from "Motor" tested the range of 24 electric vehicles (article linked below).

There is a good chance the pro-EU candidate will win the final round.

However, western countries can't keep on relying on luck!

We must acknowledge we ARE AT WAR with autocracies. If we don't, liberal democracies might devolve in to Orwellian nightmares in just a few decades.

WE MUST BAN TIKTOK

A PRO-RUSSIAN LITERAL NAZI won the first round of presidential elections in Romania 🤯

Calin Georgescu ran a campaign exclusively on social media, and was polling 5% just a few weeks ago.

Final round on December 8th, against Elena Lasconi, pro-EU candidate

Who is escalating?

For the past 3 years, russia fired approximately 10.000 missiles and 14.000 drones.

Here is a visual aid to get an idea of what Ukraine has been subjected to - each red dot is ONE of the 10k missiles.

... it's russia who's escalating, anyone claiming otherwise is ret%rded.

Reminder: ATACMS are NOT LONG RANGE MISSILES!!!

It's insane how more people aren't pointing this out.

Bunker Vlad is safe, these are literally classified as short range missiles.

FREEDOM

"Give me liberty, or give me death" declared Patrick Henry in 1775, rallying support before the American colonies fought and won their independence from the British Empire
The colonists received massive support in their struggle from France.

UKRAINE SUPPORTED THE US IN IRAQ

Forgotten by most is how Ukraine deployed 6000 troops and suffered 18 casualties in Iraq.
They were not obliged by any treaty to do so.
Now the same country is asking for ammo and weapons to defend itself...

3) MORAL
I saved these arguments for last because, sadly enough, for many they are not important.
For other though, it's what matters the most...

COALITION OF DICTATORS

Zooming out, it is clear how an unholy alliance of dictators and failed states have joined forces against western countries.
Ask yourself, what do russia, Iran, China and North Korea have in common?
...it's deep-seated hatred towards the US.

TAIWAN

Putin invaded on the 24th of February, 2022, ONLY 3 DAYS after the closing ceremony of the Beijing winter Olympics.
That's no coincidence, and in fact, China proved to be an economic lifeline for the Putin regime after the war started.

2) STRATEGY & GEOPOLITICS
NUCLEAR PROLIFERATION

In 1994, Ukraine agreed to give up on more than 1000 nuclear warheads, hundreds of ICBMs and long range cruise missiles AS WELL AS missile production facilities.
In exchange, the US, UK, Ireland and Russia promised security.

1) ECONOMY

The E.U. is the largest trading partner for the US. Historically it's also one of the most reliable.
The prosperity of both US and EU are in many ways linked, which also explains why astounding resources were invested in winning the cold war (aprox. 26 trillion $)

Why would the US keep on supporting Ukraine?? 🤔🤔🤔

SUMMARY:
The case for helping Ukrainians fight the russian invasion is rock solid. Follow along this thread if you want to know WHY.

I divided the arguments in three main areas:
1) ECONOMY
2) STRATEGY & GEOPOLITICS
3) MORALS
