        Kwame Ture (paraphrased from memory) from the Kwame Ture Speaks youtube video:

        So when the US declared war on Baghdad, I called up Saddam and told him “I’m with you”

        What’s funny is I’m like 95% sure that’s true, apparently Kwame Ture was a little like Noam Chomsky in that he’d correspond with anyone who honestly cared about the same stuff he did and reached out to him. But for Saddam, I imagine he’d send the call out lol

      There’s not going to be a direct war between the US and Russia.

      Just a proxy war between Ukraine and Belarus that happens to have US and Russian soldiers "advising in a kinetic capacity" on either end.

      Yeah, infant really see it going beyond saber rattling. Not a great time for starting even an easy war for either of them right now let alone WW3
