Trudeau

If only he had the gumption of your man-crush to change the constitution, declare himself president for life, rig elections, kill opposition politicians and have journalists by the dozen fall out of windows then perhaps he'd wouldn't have had to resign.

C'est la vie.

Oxford Street Muz has been watching too much CNN.

The liberal left-leaning 'One World Government' zealots may not like him but one of the fundamental differences between Putin and many other world 'leaders' is that Putin runs Russia for the good of Russia and not the good of the World Economic Forum.

I think he'll run it for the good of himself I doubt many leaders care about the people at all

can you explain the massive improvement in Russia since he came to power?

when it was run by oligarchs and US funded NGOs the place was a shithole

meanwhile over the same period most western nations are going backwards in living standard

Reading this thread brought to mind this poem.


We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when 5
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats' feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar 10
Shape without form shade without colour,
Paralyzed force, gesture without motion;

Those who have crossed
With direct eyes to death's other Kingdom
Remember us--if at all-- not as lost 15
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.

II

Eyes I dare not meet in dreams
In death's dream kingdom 20
These do not appear:
There the eyes are
Sunlight on a broken column
There is a tree swinging

And voices are 25
In the wind's singing
More distant and more solemn
Than a fading star
Let me be no nearer
In death's dream kingdom 30
Let me also wear
Such deliberate disguises
Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves
In a field
Behaving as the wind behaves 35
No nearer--

Not that final meeting
In the twilight kingdom.

III

This is the dead land
this is cactus land 40
Here the stone images
Are raised, here they receive
The supplication of a dead man's hand
Under the twinkle of a fading star.

Is it like this 45
In death's other kingdom
Waking alone
At the hour when we are
Trembling with tenderness
Lips that would kiss 50
Form prayers to broken stone

And the act 75
Falls the Shadow
For Thine is the Kingdom

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion 80
And the response
Falls the Shadow
Life is very long

Between the desire
And the spasm 85
Between the potency
And the existence
Between the essence
And the descent
Falls the Shadow 90
For Thine is the Kingdom

For Thine is

This is the way the way the world ends 95
This is the way the way the world ends
This is the way the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

I used to back in the day, but I dunno how anyone can get away with that in 2025 and work in an office. Otherwise, if you're not working, its still too early.

Musk paid 40 billion dollars to cater to these basement dwellers, Pasquali didn't pay anything so he & these tin foil hats are getting a bargain & are actually paying with the long hours of their short lives they spend trying to convince people that their hilarious opinions matter. Kudos to those champs.

This is the kind of brain pickled retort that you get from someone who has had way too many jibby jabs.....

Careful kids!
