Sep 2023

the other day about Ukraine. He's a MAGA-head. He said to me that Ukraine should be given to Russia because who cares about Ukraine. I countered with the fact that Putin and the Russian talking heads have made it clear they will not stop with Ukraine. So I said (sarcastically) "why not just give Putin all of Europe, let him take Europe all the way to Spain and France and the Atlantic." It was then that he said "Oh no! That's ALL of Europe. We can't do that!"

Their hypocrisy through ignorance and bigotry will drive me crazy some day.
