Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Ukrainian state-owned gas company Naftogaz has held talks with Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM.N), Halliburton (HAL.N) and Chevron (CVX.N) about projects in Ukraine as the country looks to lure back foreign investment to its energy sector, the Financial Times reported on Friday.


Also, Halliburton. LULZ

There's a camp?

I thought we didn't get to vote on the "truth."

Mostly, it's a joke about the NYT using info. from leaked documents to make the case that we need to sEnD mOrE tAnKs NoW! to Ukraine, while not being smart enough to find a Ukrainian tank that doesn't proudly fly Nazi symbols.

Yeah, there's a camp. Far left and far right whose response to Ukraine getting invaded is "but they have Nazis!"

Well...that's not what I said, but you know that.

I've already said that Putin is the bad guy and that Putin deserves to lose.

But that doesn't preclude being aware of the sympathies/beliefs of those to whom we've given billions and to whom the media-political establishment wishes to write a blank check.

Let me ask you a question: are there Nazis in Ukraine?

Yes, there's a Nazi problem in Ukraine. And most of eastern Europe. At least Ukraine has been taking some steps to try to combat that.

I'm not concerned that military aid is going to spread Nazism. I do think you make very good points about not having a goal, and giving just enough to keep a stalemate (or slow death). But you lose me with bringing up Nazis in the context of this war.

The New York Times brought it up, albeit unwittingly.
