Economics

There is a lot of theater to this war. The plot ending is Russia wins and was always going to win. Purpose of war was to capture EU harder, and stop nordstream. Weapons and energy sales for US, with more weapons production and victory from Russia, making it obvious to buy more US weapons by all. Nazis being able to bussify to the last Ukrainian the destruction of Ukraine was simply too good a resource to not boost weapons/oil profits.

wolff just explained to me why we keep seeing the uk, france & germany perpetually politically paralyzed in these last few years and it's fascinating to learn that the eu's recent capitulation to trump is part-in-parcel to all of it.
