The focus being on pure stupidity, Blackburn never figured out that critical race theory is not being taught in schools, never was. Instead the right has a purely incorrect version where it has something to do with anything to do with black history that could somehow make white kids feel bad about being white...or something something that makes no more sense than that.

But to display your ignorance and stupidity in a way that shows you don't have a clue what CRT is, Brown should have burst out laughing and told her to figure out what CRT is before asking such stupid questions, and yes that level of disrespect would have been appropriate for the levels of stupidity she showed.

But at least in America we pretend that our leadership is not impotent. Or did I mean not omnipotent ?

In the West the fear of a leader becoming a dictator is a long tradition. The longer any person stays in power, the greater the danger. Generally Western Leaders do not stay in power for life. In China and Russia there isn't a history of much else.

We were fortunate in America to have George Washington as our first President. He set the precedent of 8 years in office, and only FDR exceeded that.

At the present time I must beg to leave without proving you wrong, as I am out of time this evening, but I see I must get cracking and find some counter evidence to what you are saying.

Nearly every point you made is 100 % the opposite of what I believe. One of us lives in fantasy land. I hope it isn't me.

The two conflicts should not be conflated as though there was a super view looking down on them adjudging any of them hypocritical. Each of them arose out of their unique past and current histories and their histories with the West. Each of them appear to have divergent ideologies in action, and have their own rulers and forms of government. It is not only apples and oranges but also bananas and peaches, with a cumquat and a cantaloupe thrown in trying to help save the day. Don't ask me which is which!

As to the last point - we do too.

As to the other point - we don't suppose that we are getting the complete story as to what is happening in Ukraine. BUT, I think we are seeing enough, (I don't know how much you are getting in C*******t China), to see that the Russians are not playing footsie with the Ukrainians. I've been exposed to enough of this to know that we have a real war going on and innocent people are being k**led. If you k**l the people, it seems that the land would be very easy to take over.

Is bombing hospitals considered to be sticking to precision bombings that avoid civilians? Good luck with defending Putin on this but it seems to me it is going to be a difficult task.
