I mean at this point if you have seen what Israel has done, unfiltered by the media, then there is almost nothing that will shake people out of their views. If you support Israel after knowing that they purposefully shell hospitals and children, then you will most likely keep supporting Israel no matter what. Same goes for those who oppose Israel and it’s genocide.

What do you mean 120 years. Israel is less than 80 years old.

Absolutely not a surprise. Seeing how obsessive the brittish good-old-boys have been about Russia. Why not bribe, blackmail, harass, censor and maybe even kill for a good cause, or that’s how they see it.

you mean the thing politicians, weapons manufacturers, Ukrainian government wanted Europeans to believe all for their separate reasons.

Of course they don’t want to take over Europe. They want their regions in Ukraine and renegotiations on security on whole of their western border and now just not promises of security based on goodwill, because all goodwill between parties have been destroyed because of this war. If they wanted European resources, goods and tech they would just much rather trade for them. It’s much simpler than taking the burden of occupying and administering a fucking unruly European subcontinent! That would btw also get destroyed in the process if they ever tried to take it. Jesus, they don’t even want to take over all of Ukraine for pretty much the same reasons.

There is no significant ammo production. There are no significant national stockpiles anymore. They all were fed to Ukraine before and during the 2023 ‘counter-offensive’ that flopped horribly and those stockpiles never recovered because all the new production was almost exclusively sent to keep Ukraine afloat after that. Should Europe just disarm itself completely just so that Ukraine won’t even win, but just that it won’t collapse totally this year?

One major argument for consoles is still that there is a single unified platform that gives better bang-for-buck than PC of the same price, and that studios can dev and optimize their games on more easily.

That is not how their business model works. The consoles themselves are sold almost at cost of production or at a loss. The money for Microsoft, Nintendo, Microsoft comes from those exclusives and live service subscriptions. They want to maximize the amount of their hardware in homes and then make the money on selling the thing that actually makes them useful.
