Is anyone else concerned that Russia, per WSJ, is rattling its nuclear saber.

I would like our Russian bimmer brothers to know that we have families just like you.

My favorite teacher was a native Russian. He gave this American the greatest educational gift by introducing me to the UNIX operating system.

What can be done to prevent escalation of a senseless nuclear incident----or worse, senseless nuclear incidents?

Power, greed, corruption and insanity... welcome to the human race

Murder, genocide, extreme violence... it's been with us since the beginning of time and part of human DNA. All we see today is a more sophisticated version of it with better weapons.

On that happy note...

As a Polak I got love for my Russian brothers but I trust them as much as a pedophile at Chuck E Cheese.

People are ungrateful, and many are out to get each other. Everyone thinks their struggle is so much worse than the next guys. Welcome to planet earth, some people struggle to survive every day, and the rest take life for granted because they want something more.

For fucks sake, I was thinking about this today actually. Jose Mestres and others that have life altering conditions making it impossible to enjoy the basic things in life, let alone having the time to make problems in the world.

We live in a fucked up world, and I'll say it day in and day out that the future is going to be very dark. There's been many worldwide issues unfolding into hate against particular groups whether it be Hitler, ISIS, Kim Jong, etc., peace is basically a forgotten concept. We live in a world filled with selfish people who only care about their own wants and it will never change. This world is fucked no matter what, and I'm glad I don't have to be around to experience the demise of it all.

The Russian govt. isn't insane. They won't risk global financial collapse over...what?

As for the Russian people, is it a representative republic or just a socialist reboot?

"THE conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.
We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society."
