Oddbean new post about login | logout the summarily defeated Establishment Democrat Party, and their friends in the Military Industrial Complex are trying to start WW3 before Trump takes office. I pray their attempts will fail as spectacularly as everything they’ve tried in the last decade.
It seems too late. They can try, but it sounds like both sides of the conflict expect the new administration to facilitate negotiations rather than further conflict. I don't know that they can get Putin to take the bait with only barely 2 months left. I hope this is correct.
Supposedly Ukraine's long range missile shipments have mostly already been blown up. So the permission to use them is mostly one last troll of the world from the flailing fools. MIC deep state: here, have some missiles, but don't use them on civilians Ukraine: thanks * uses them on civilians * Russia: * blows up missile storage * Deep state: okay you can use the missiles anywhere now Everyone: oh no, nukes! Ukraine: ... Deep state * troll face* Just another MIC pretext racket to shovel more tax money into their own pockets. Always has been.
