Waiting to see him call Xi Jimping a pedo. He wants to fight Putin, so how much of a stretch is it really?

What I don’t get from the 4th gear section is: why does reduced demand (not shipping used cars to Russia) cause a price spike?

5th: So, I assume Mr. Tesla (f*cktard Elon) will be ripping China on Twitter any secondnow.

When did resorts start charging for parking? That’s some bullshit. 

It’s interesting that our views are exactly opposite - and I don’t mean to be confrontational here. Certainly, Europe has a lot of baggage, but it is an adult. The U.S.A. is still a teenager among nations. Arrogant, subjectively immortal, careless and reckless. I want to think that we Europeans have learnt a bit from…

Well if the wiring harness is for turn signals, BMW will be fine.

Read what she said again, both sentences this time. 

You did hear about the missile that hit 10km from NATO member Poland, right? This is a public announcement of support for a fellow NATO member and the democratic government of Ukraine. Vlad would gladly target Polish bases near Ukraine if he thought he could without awaking the rest of NATO.

Wiring harnesses are not a low cost part. It’s actually one of the most expensive single parts you can find in a car. A full vehicle wiring harness is something like 2% of the total cost of the vehicle.

well, yes and no. your freedom fighter is my terrorist and vice versa.

our unconditional support of Israel and support for various repressive regimes throughout the region certainly earned us a target on our backs and Iraq 2 Jihadi Boogaloo was a war that should never have happened, but on the other hand, we do not…

They’re already doing that pretty effectively with the small, slow Turkish drones that they have.

That is mostly what Russia has. Thier modern stuff is severely limited in numbers. Which is what happens when your ruling class are a bunch of robber barons buying half billion dollar yachts, and your economy is smaller than JUST the state of California.

We Americans were the terrorists invading other peoples lands in both Iraq and Afghanistan for the last 20 years

from what i can tell the most modern equipment they’re sending into ukraine is from the mid 90's. so no, there isn’t anything nato already knows about in detail.

Doubt it. This isn’t kit that NATO is unfamiliar with. From what has been reported so far, it is a lot of older tanks and equipment that are being used extensively in Ukraine. The new stuff isn’t doing much since there isn’t much of it and replacing them if lost would be prohibitive.

the age of that equipment isn’t the problem. the upkeep and training is.

On Russian news:

Yeah, if the Russian troops haven’t had their “Are we the baddies?” moment yet, it’s too late.

All sympathy for Russia goes out the window when they’re specifically targeting maternity wards, schools, civilian cars fleeing, apartment buildings, and journalists. If Russians are ok with committing war crimes, then we need to be ok with the armed resistance to their invasion using any and all means necessary to…
