Well, yeah. Once you add another dimension the one below it becomes “flat.”
/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

Distance still works! Think about Flatland - they can’t hide “behind” anything, but we still couldn’t see the people 20 miles away.
Interesting. How about a counter-offer? Russia gets the fuck off the Ukraine, pays reparations, and maybe in a decade or so of being nice the rest of the world starts trading with them.
The rest of the world is trading with them. It’s just the NATO bloc that has cut them off, which is now bifurcating the global economy. It’s one of the main reasons for inflation all throughout the West, because our currencies are now not being used by a growing segment of the world economy.
Your counteroffer isn’t happening and if we keep this up things will only get worse. We can’t dictate terms. We have to negotiate.
Ukraine has/had an imperfect government, that doesn’t mean they deserve to be invaded.
Ukraine had a pro-Western revolution/coup that removed Russian allies and replaced them with NATO allies. It doesn’t matter if they “deserve” to be invaded (I don’t think they deserved it, for the record), Russia merely did what was in it’s geopolitical interests.
Fuck Putin and fuck his supporters and fuck anyone who both sides this crap.
Deeply unserious. 😔
They’ll have no choice but to go into the mountains and become guerilla fighters.
Zelenski wants guns and bullets. What do the People want? Do Crimeans want the US to give Ukraine more guns and bullets? Or do they not count for some reason?
No, our option is to voice our displeasure and force the Party to capitulate to our demands.
Stop just laying down and letting them have their way with you. It’s embarrassing.
EDIT I don’t mean this to be an attack, but I just can’t get over how peasant-like your mindset is. “All we can do is support m’lord and 'ave faith in his Court, ours is not to question.” Why won’t you even try to change anything? When did you give up entirely on the concept of politics? We need to rise up and resist, not meekly obey!
When Trump wins it will be your fault for not forcing Biden to drop out. Ride-or-die Biden cultists are following the leader off a cliff when they should be calling for Biden to resign now (holy SHIT he needs to resign now, this man is not able to perform his job didn’t you see?!) and for someone else to replace him at the Convention.
Do whatever you want, but don’t try to blame me for trying to force America to vote for a nursing home patient.
Your “compromise” is letting the mugger only take half of your wallet.
People aren’t property, you don’t get to keep them just because you own them. They have self determination.
Are you currently in Crimea? Other parts of Ukraine? Is this really your call?
No, it’s theirs, which is why I want them to have a choice! I’m the one that wants to let them choose whether they join Russia or stay with Ukraine. You’re the one that wants to hold them against their will if they truly want to leave.
I’d be comfortable with allowing them to do what they want. Why do you not want the same?
Here’s a hint: I think a peace deal to end the war in Ukraine should involve a new referendum organized and monitored by an impartial body (so not one picked by either Russia or NATO) before I was comfortable with Crimea or other parts of Eastern Ukraine joining Russia.
It’s a good compromise because it leaves everyone unhappy.
Same.
I don’t care if y’all vote for Biden. Do what you think is best, and let me do what I think is best.
It’s called agitation. I don’t really care who the president will be. What I care about is people realizing that our government is evil.
I’m also unsure of what you think imperialism is.
Who keeps telling me to log off?
I will NEVER log off!
I’m unsure what you think a tankie is.
The bombs would run out if Biden stopped giving them more - Israel itself has admitted they need the US to do the genocide.
I’m voting downticket for Democrats dawg. Republicans are enemies of humanity and should be rounded up into work camps.
Yes, they say the quiet part out loud.
Biden is working hard to help genocide the Palestinians. He could end this whenever he wants by not giving them more weapons. He said there was a red line! All lies.
Not what I said, just a reminder that genocide is bipartisan.
Sure, but Flatlanders still can’t hide behind anything in their environment. They’d be hidden by the very curvature of space, which is really the same as being too “far away” to be seen.
