Continuing fighting gives more time to get those security guarantees.

I don’t see the logic here

I don’t see how continuing the fight is going to lead to security guarantees for Ukraine. A peace deal or ceasefire could at least allow individual countries to send peacekeepers independently of NATO. There are ways to deter a future attack outside of full membership. And if a ceasefire ends up being just a chance to regroup, then at least Ukraine gets that chance as well. As we saw during Ukraine’s “counteroffensive,” well-fortified positions are extremely difficult and costly to break through.

Seems like something that’s atleast worth the shot when the alternative is to continue with the ongoing war while losing more and more territory and soldiers each day. In order to prevent a war from happening again you first need to stop the war that’s already going on.

I don’t personally see the point of getting a diagnosis. I’d still have ADHD even after the diagnosis and the idea of starting to medicate it is not something I’m too thrilled about.

What’s the alternative here? Russians going home and giving back all the conquered territories is simply not going to happen.

Zelenskyy has stated that he is not willing to negotiate with Putin as well as that they will not settle for less than getting back all the occupied territories including Crimea. There is no peace deal to be made with these terms as the starting point.

If the intention here was to show conservatives how unreasonable it is to grant legal rights to a fetus then I’d say it failed miserably and achieved the exact opposite; further evidence to spread around in the right-wing circles to demonstrate how out of touch the “libs” are. Well done - it’s as if they don’t even want to win elections anymore.

Not including your pronouns on emails / online profiles.

I agree with the sentiment but I wouldn’t go as far as banning it. I’m for free speech even when I think it’s stupid. I do admit of having preconceptions of people who do this though.

Also, feels like such a pointless thing to debate about as someone whose native language doesn’t have gendered pronouns to begin with. Here everyone is they/them.
