myata Posted January 9 Report Posted January 9 (edited) Leadership is not gained by force, or might. It's based on the vision, respect, trust and the ability to communicate and organize the community to achieve common goals. All gone. The final drops of ink are in and on the paper with absurd territorial claims and even invasion threats to neighbors and former allies. But it isn't all that has done it. It was a process rather than a single act. The attempts to revise the lawful order made after WWII were made by Putin's aggressive regime in Russia since the first decade of this century. A leader should have seen it, understood it for what it was and is, and organized the community of free nations to put up an appropriate, matching response to halt it. Nothing like that has happened. Democrats and Republicans alike, Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden didn't like and visibly resisted the challenge, presented by the Time itself of standing to new form of aggressive nuclear fascism. Since the full-scale invasion this reluctance was palpable. Endless dithering, delays and talking in place of bold and resolute action when and where its needed ate into and eroded the claim. Leaders lead - they aren't being dragged at the end of the pack. Yes Joe: before the question of the Time there will be no excuses. And now, the transformation is complete and the results are in. America cannot be the leader, by her act and words alike. It'll have to figure out its own path and future and good luck to her in that job the outcome of which is anything but assured. The free world though has to remember again and take it in: freedom is not free. It will stay only as long as it's supported by bold thought and will to act to defend it. Time gives us no free gifts. When and if we stop standing for freedom, it will go. Edited January 9 by myata Quote If it's you or them, the truth is equidistant
User Posted January 9 Report Posted January 9 Ah, yes, the classic case of 'if only someone had done something sooner'—too bad hindsight doesn’t come with a time machine. But hey, who needs bold leadership when you can just sit back and enjoy the chaos, right? I’m sure everything will work itself out… eventually Quote

We're still the world leader, it's just that now our allies can't just sit on their asses and watch the world burn. Trump won't put up with it. Quote

myata Posted January 9 Author Report Posted January 9 Anyways, back to this world: with most stupid and only a little tad less ridiculous territorial claims to former allies, the U.S. cannot, de facto and in this reality be any leader. And brainless thought it was about the "policy"? Tell us more of those good heartwarming tales? Just lower food prices and stop there thank you? There's no cure for the absence of brain. It would be cute to hope that they could learn by experience, for another election.. but with another bottom reached and beaten easily, it would be quite a tall hope.

myata Posted January 9 Author Report Posted January 9 The role and responsibility of leadership is not earned by muscle and might. Dead brains just never knew it. And that leaves no chances of it being the leader in the observable future. Whatever the next election does and whoever wins it, the trust and responsibility just aren't there, period.

Oh, absolutely. Leadership is clearly something ethereal, like a mystical force that just happens to choose its worthy vessel, but never by anything as pedestrian as hard work or strength. And "dead brains"? Genius insight there—because obviously, the future will take care of itself, especially if we just dismiss trust and responsibility as irrelevant. The election? Mere formality. Who needs it when we’ve already concluded everything will fall apart in the most beautifully vague way imaginable? 38 minutes ago, myata said: Can't speak for the whole of the states, but no awakening generally works with the dead brains.

Oh, absolutely, because "dead brains" are clearly beyond saving, and blaming the Idol is just too much work.

eyeball Posted January 9 Report Posted January 9 The U.S. rescinded the claim and moral right to the leadership of the free world They gave these things up decades ago assuming they ever had them to start with.

myata Posted January 9 Author Report Posted January 9 Insanity is what it looks like. There are no good reason to let go of one's sanity. No valid justifications for going insane, voluntarily. If you chose and decided to join the insane bunch: no, you aren't the first one, history is full of you. And yes, it never ended well. The reality will catch up, whatever the insane fairy tales you wanted to play. It always does. Quote If it's you or them, the truth is equidistant

The reality will catch up, whatever the insane fairy tales you wanted to play. It always does. Oh, absolutely, because history is just full of people who made groundbreaking decisions, changed the world, and were remembered forever for playing it safe. I mean, who needs innovation, right? It’s so much better to cling to the comfort of "sanity" and ignore the fact that most of history’s "insane" trailblazers were the ones who actually achieved something. After all, who needs progress when you can just stick to the same tired old rules and wait for reality to catch up, as you so brilliantly put it? So yeah, keep your "sanity." I’m sure that’ll make all the difference in the end. Quote

herbie Posted January 9 Report Posted January 9 They relinquished that right in 2016, but Biden fought tooth and nail to support Ukraine and earn some of that respect back. Now they have a President elect that not only picks fights with allies but has adopted the very views of Putin that he can just claim parts of other countries for 'security' purposes and pervert the govt into a kleptocracy of billionaires just like Russia. Donny Diapers uber alles. Quote

Donny Diapers uber alles. Biden did not fight for shit for Ukraine... We stood by and watched for months as Russia built up an invasion and all Biden did was wag his finger in the air while we continued to give them some paltry $$$ and equipment. We should have been pouring far more money and equipment into Ukraine BEFORE Russia invaded. Putin did not invade on Trump's watch. Trump threatened Putin, Putin respected that. Putin did not respect Biden. Quote

Many probably don't like lots of the things you don't like and for much the same reason. Do you know any in real life?
