I can never work out with google what is malice and what is incompetence.

I swear NATO is basically using the Ukrainians as cannon fodder right now. Or like suicide bombers: we don’t care if they die, as long as they take some Russians with them.

Pretty much, their goal is to weaken Russia by keeping Ukraine fighting to the last Ukrainian, not actually help Ukraine win.

If we gave Ukraine weapons to win, it would inevitably mean enough weapons for them to take Moscow, or at least get close to doing so, at which point Russia would probably launch nukes. That's ignoring the need to train them to use advanced weapons systems.

Funny how there's always a magic money tree for war, but not to stop pensioners from freezing. Guess we have to stop the Russians from taking our foodbanks.

It's usually a good idea to patch a ship before it sinks, rather than re-arrange the deck chairs.

reintroducing wolves and bears is too radical, but fecking giant spiders is okay?

What the hell does it matter what gender said characters identify as? Why would it matter if we had all types of Space Marines (yeah, yeah, lore, yadda-yadda, but c’mon…the Rubicon Primaris itself contradicts a whole lotta lore… it’s 40k, its lore is as stable as melted cheese), or trans characters, or agender, or anything else?

Approaching it from the opposite direction, 40k is supposed to be a dystopia, why would you want gender equality and all that nice stuff in a dystopia, unless you thought it was dystopian?

There is a post-Brexit revolution in farm subsidies under way, with billions of pounds a year being shifted from payments for simply owning or renting farmland towards “public funding for public goods”, largely nature restoration and climate protection.

I can only imagine how much it hurt a guardian journo to write something positive about brexit.

Two cheeks of the same ass.
