Honestly, they look a little desperate to make sure each knows the other is sincere (or isn’t secretly planning the other’s demise..)

The putin and Kim gay love images from midjourney pair very well with these recent videos

The set of AI images of Trump with Biden was also highly entertaining

EDIT: Downvoted for mocking Putin? Bro, get some courage and speak up if you want to defend him. Don’t just sit there lurking.

u/Fit_Flower_8982 Jun 21 '24

Rejecting your comment is not defending him. It's not funny mockery, just crude insult and low quality content.

Biden and Netenyahu being bad doesnt mean that Putin and Kim Jong Un arent also.

So let’s play this hypothetical game.. two out of these 4 are child killers.. you have two bullets.. if you miss, your child will die.. who are you killing?

u/New-Doctor9300 Jun 21 '24

I'm not playing it. I'm telling you that Kim Jong Un and Putin are still bad, no matter how bad Biden and Netenyahu very much are. Whataboutism isnt an argument, they are all objectively bad.

Protecting his border...by physically moving over that border, invading another independent country and attempting to take out its capital?

There is absolutely something imperialist about invading a country because you assume it belongs to you. In fact, that is THE definition of imperialism.

"A policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonization, use of military force, or other means."

How is invading a country to make it part of your territory NOT exactly that?

To be part of NATO you need to be accepted unilaterally by all member states. Thats the difference between NATO and Russia. You ASK NATO to join, for Russia you get invaded and forced into it.

Ukraine isn't part of NATO. They are currently at war so the application cannot be accepted until after wartime. And if anything Russia invading any country it pleases is helping NATO since it has sped up a lot of countries decisions about whether or not they want to join.
