Sunday GT: Let's end these streaks. We shall fight Sandy on the bleachers

[D-train]

I guess I won't add a Ukrainian flag as my avatar then ... Just another invasion anyway.

Obviously nobody wants innocent people to die but how many lives have been saved by virtue signaling by displaying Ukraine flags?

We are social animals and we join together to express things we believe in. What you are saying is like saying how many people have been saved by playing the national anthem at sporting events.

Dumb analogy.

Yeah, you are right; not my best work. lol

But back to may main point: We are social animals, and we display things we believe in, and we join together in these things. Whether it is displaying "12" flags, or wearing MAGA hats, or wearing "my body my choice" t-shirts. I might disagree with a particular cause, but I recognize why people are doing it.

Considering how little the average person knows about current events, the Ukrainian flag thing just strikes me as very insincere. I went to a Kraken game where they had someone sing the Ukrainian national anthem and people were crying

Most people are sheep. That's my takeaway.

That's very true. Even as a conservative I hear a lot of them calling liberals "sheep" and I ask "Aren't you the same thing in that you follow along with what you're told without even questioning it?" it's the weirdest damn thing.

I think a person can have only a little bit of information but still be passionate. Obviously there is a "Russian side to things" (e.g., allegations of genocide and nazis and not living up to the Minsk agreements) but I don't think many people like a big powerful country invading a smaller country and hitting civilian targets. What is insincere about that?

They didn’t change their profile pictures when Afghanistan was being invaded? Idk, the profile pic thing just seems like a fad to me and a gross thing to try to score virtue points with.

Afghanistan invaded by who? Russia? I don't think there was an internet back then.

I had internet last summer when the Taliban invaded Afghanistan. Or do only Russian invasions deserve our moral indignation? Lol

I thought the Taliban were Afghani. How dare they invade their own country.
