let us know when you realize that is what Ukrainians are doing and most of EU and western countries are helping them do: taking the fight to Moscow by first expelling their invading force from Ukraine. These people can’t achieve their goal of peaceful and healthy Europe by marching straight to Moscow. We need to maintain a certain degree of stability to not upset the precarious situation and have it blow up in our faces even more.

thanks for your words kind stranger. I have noticed a similar pattern. I try to not let it bother me.

I thought everything i did would be commendable. I try to be what i wish others would also be. I try to learn, i ask clear questions and even try to put the question in a form that would be easy to understand and the one answering would have less trouble in figuring out what i am asking, i thank for every answer and try to reply something worthwhile. I stay humble because i know so little. I ask questions to engage people, strike a conversation and bring forth people wiser and more knowledgeable than myself, try to make the knowledge approachable for myself and others. I try to take account the appearance of my questions: i know my questions might be felt as stubborn and the knowledge might be hard to be distilled in a form accessible to ignorant people like myself. So everything i did i felt was what should be done and still i was downvoted. So because of this i feel people who are downvoting are acting contrary to reason and good manners and people who are acting like that are.. stupid? And stupidity.. should be called out? I think it serves the stupid people best if someone calls out their behavior as it lets them know of their shortcomings. I know i didn’t do it gracefully but in a stupid manner. All downvoters: i wish you well. Please act in a way you wish others would act towards you.

thank you for your insightful answer!

thanks for your answer! I understand it better now.

thanks for answering! I understand it’s hard but if you absolutely would need to come up with a sort of analogue to explain the causative mechanism of earthquakes to a layman, what sort of things would describe it best? Provided that it still remains a simplified generalization? I’m sorry if i come across as stubbornly persistent but i really don’t have a concise understanding of how to explain this phenomenon to myself or others and you seem like a person who might be able to do that.

edit: why the fuck am i downvoted for asking a question? How fucking stupid are you people? If one can’t ask, one might never learn either and learning is something we seemingly need all the more when people are behaving like you are.

interesting analogue. Would you care to elaborate what parts of the Earth are playing the parts of wall, rope and spool?
