There's too much rah-rah and not enough sober thinking. Let Russians and Ukrainians kill each other, leave me and mine out of it.

Crazy idea - maybe Zelensky is not as dumb as he seems. Maybe he’s simply trying to show the world the full craziness of the current situation. The West may get nervous - and cut his support. In which case, the war would end - but the Azov gang could not accuse him of treason - and kill him.

(I know it’s a silly fantasy, and the clown would love to see WWIII. But if this were intentional, as I described - it could actually work.. LOL).

Interesting translations of Pres. Elensky's name: (Musk's Law in action)

(Google fixing this situation in real time.)

Last night: translate.google.com

Today (you have to add an 'o') translate.google.com


I expect this second translation will be taken down by tomorrow.

Microsoft seems to think it means "evil volod peace", i.e. evil owns peace. This is some weird cosmic irony, considering the situation of making peace talks an illegal act.

Volod means "own". Volodo means "owner", or "ruler".
