    I was listening to some libs that I kinda like besides when Socialism and Russia come up and they basically said “Russia was trying to show the west that they refuse to send any more gas” which doesn’t make sense when you consider that they’re literally rebuilding it now.

      Dontcha love how Russia blowing up a major sector of their economy while they commit to a costly invasion makes perfect sense to liberals? Like the logic is 100% sound. Putin is just that irrationally evil and short sighted.

      Also the fact that they could’ve shown the west that by shutting off the pipes, instead of destroying billions of dollars worth of their own work that took years to accomplish and is a major revenue source for them, while also fighting in a very expensive invasion and needing the money Nord Stream provided.

      Also when you point out that Russia was more than willing to sell gas to European customers the whole damn time all you get is a “nu’uh no they didn’t” followed by the head being stuffed into the sand.
