Imagine my shock when, stoned out of my gourd, I see the ABC Nightly News headlines.

“Warrant Issued For Vladimir Putin’s Arrest”

And it’s issued by an “international” criminal court America has already deemed an unnecessary inhibitor to their colonial project.

I feel like the media is gaslighting us. Very briefly my sense of reality was annihilated. I was caught in a bizarre imperialist fantasy where nothing made sense. I wanted ask my sister what year it was and whether Kiev had finally sacked Moscow. I was convinced I had missed some major developments.

My fault for falling for the MSM clickbait, apparently.

    It’s an open invitation for Maga fanboys with Ford F-150s to strap up and take down an oligarchy

      I’ve yet to meet a MAGA boy who supported the war in Ukraine.

      MAGA supports Russia, unlike liberals. You forgot the world flipped since Hongkong and COVID.

        Wym world has flipped? There has been a pro-russia sect of the Republican party ever since the USSR fell. A group of US rightists wanting to put the brakes on the Russia proxy war so that they can go full speed into a war with China is not the world flipping.

          They also have other motivations like imposing “Christian conservative” values on society.

        Any time I hear about an arrest warrant, I know like 3 Trump Supporters that LARP as law enforcement and say that they’d shoot the person on sight if they saw them. Perhaps Putin wouldn’t be one of their targets
