alternatively, you could dismiss BOTH the ukraine cheerleaders as well as the disgraced pedophile hacks that are looking for an audience in russia by echoing kremlin excuses to start a war of aggression against ukraine, and listen to reasonable experts and analysts instead.



i dismiss ukraine cheerleaders, which means people like YOU, and russia shills from both sides of the political spectrum already

i listen to people with experience in these matters, boots on the ground

and i knew that you would attack the person and not the argument

they will take the most offtopic nonsense to disqualify opinions

the next step here for everyone, who does not care about ritters privare nonsense when getting ukraine/russia input, is to get called a pedo supporter by the fenderp/meawhile mob

just wait for it


too predictable buddy ^_^

now go and take your meds

Saudis need to get rid of rupees Russians are trading for dirhams in an effort to swap oil for an usd pegged currency (dirhams are pegged 1:3.6725 to usd).

As much as people here on PaRD are cheering for dedollarisation - it’s going to upend international trade big time increasing frictions as you will need to swap multiple currencies against each other.

It’s really unfortunate Americans decided to weaponize the dollar instead of promoting global trade and peace through usd settlement and quiet soft power that comes with it.

The future is crypto. It's also the only way to become independent from banksters, the ones who run and destroy the world.
But yeah, the struggles of dedollarization are going to make everything even more expensive. Higher energy cost => higher cost of everything.

I do not believe that crypto is the future. I do believe that Higher energy cost => higher cost of everything, and that this will continue for the next number of years. My position is that the war in ukraine is just one front which is causing the energy crisis, but that it is not the sole cause, just as the war in ukraine is not the sole cause of the higher cost of living, that we will see continue to increase this decade.

Crypto is only good as a diversifier. IMO 5% at most of your money.

Putting a ton of money in crypto is a good way to end up broke. Way too much risk of big daddy government seizing your wealth or somehow making it

Edit: on second thought it’s absolutely better compared to some currencies around the globe

Sure as hell would prefer Bitcoin or eth vs Venezuelan, Turkish or Argentinian currencies

This is a personal attack by the way.

As dizzy mentioned above, if you were able to express yourself without having a meltdown with views you dont agree with, there would be no problem. You ignored the video, and deflected when I outlined the point of the section referenced and quoted.

No one here supports genocide. We just dont support a war that could have been avoided and a narrative that shuns peace. Ukraine is in a terrible position and all Western leaders are doing is telling Ukraine to keep fighting a hopeless war while selling them more and more advanced weapons of war that is going to take Ukraine 100+ years to repay. In a scenario where Ukraine reclaims all its lands, including Crimea, and is satisfied by the cost it took to do so, feel free to chastise us for not believing this was possible or that it was worth it.

Ukraine bombed its own people for years. This is a fact. Was the deal on the table last year so bad, compared to what they are going to end up with by the time this war ends, somewhere years down the road (accepting it may stop start several times).


This is not a personal attack in any way. There you go again with that one rule for them and another for us mentality. You are a proven hypocrite.
I watched the video. Can't you read? It only highlighted your arrogance to post a video suggesting we respect others views, and yet you claim every view I have that differs is a personal attack. Its embarrassing at this point.

Your position weak and pathetic. If you can't hold your position without falsely claiming a personal attack, you ought to re-evaluate your position.
Honestly your final shreds of credibility were destroyed when you posted a George Galloway interview as a source

This: "You are an enabler for those here that support a genocide" is a personal attack. Do you not understand that ? How is it a false claim when I point out your attacks for what they are? If you want to continue the cycle of attacking people, go ahead, but I will continue to report your personal attacks. You have not even given a reason why George Galloway is the father of all tyrants (or whatever your negative view of him is based on ).
