It is physically impossible to repair the drive in less than four weeks.

Reply to comment by vonstubbins in [OC] Which Political Groups did Former FTX Executives Donate to? by coingecko
I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt in that regard, but many of those groups aren't "liberal" so much as they are socially progressive or charitable.
It's especially suspicious in that they have separated "liberal" from "Democratic" and "Republican" party and candidate giving specifically, a detail that you will see with a brief glance through the comments has escaped most of the great minds of Reddit. Especially especially because so many political parties outside the US that broadly share those views simply go by the Liberal Party.
The inescapable conclusion is that OP either has a clear agenda and knowledge and has phrased his post deliberately misleadingly or they simply have an extremely inaccurate definition of liberal... and an agenda.

No. It's poorly sourced nonsense from someone that doesn't know even know what liberal means.

It's correct, other than not knowing what a liberal is outside an extremely American definition.

They're all supposed to be liberals. America is a liberal democracy, ideologically speaking.
That some conservatives don't care about human rights, the separation of powers, or democracy in general anymore is another discussion.

You're not wrong, though fortunately for them they have an ally with 6,000 functional tanks to their 300 if they need training.
Or maybe Germany should lease them some crews too to have a tank corps with some real experience.

Germany isn't deterring anyone with their 300 obsolete tanks. Who's going to invade them anyways? Poland? Denmark? Hungary, lmao? Not happening.
That's the real deal with the "modern" tank designs, btw, they're all forty years old now and all vulnerable to modern AT.
There's an actual modern Abrams design on the way (and the rebirth of light tank philosophy) that aims to have countermeasures but the real thing is this Ukraine war will be the last chance obsolete, fifty or forty year old designs like Leopards, Challengers, and M1s have in a genuine tank vs tank setting.
Germany might as well just send all 300 rust buckets and embed design engineers to figure out how to make a modern replacement.

One might ask what use a tank is to a country that will not and can not use it.
Even if NATO gets involved, guess what, the material is already in combat against the enemy.

Reply to comment by SizorXM in This day, 100 years ago, the USSR was created by SENPA-A-A-A-I-I
It certainly has some parallels, but that war was far more complex than this one, and Lenin never went around advocating killing Ukrainians for being Ukrainian, as far as I'm aware.
While he lived he even supported Ukrainian identity... And then he weakened, and died, and Stalin seized the reins.
But whatever you think about whether either was a true believer in communist ideals, I think we can both agree Putin doesn't believe for one second this invasion is an anti-fascist war.
And, of course, there's the simple fact that WW2 came after their invasion of Ukraine and had a whole different generation of troops.

Just not purging the Soviet military before WW2 would have had profound implications for reducing loss of life.

I couldn't care less about Stalin and Lenin rolling in their graves, but it sure does suck to see the deaths of 20+ million Soviet citizens in WW2 being spat on so thoroughly in the name of nationalism.

Not having the right doesn't mean you can't get one, it just means the government didn't guarantee it. Although the reality of war means if you're outright killed you're probably going in the mass grave before your family can claim the body.
Fun fact: If you're an American, you don't have the right either. Unclaimed bodies are usually cremated and buried in collective graves.
