@tropicalcamatte I read Thomas Piketty as Thomas Partey and was so confused for a second.

@_Credible_Hulk "Free markets" are subject to the immutable law of supply and demand; nevertheless, Reich right to point out that they don't exist.

@souljagoyteller What is it about Evolutionary Psychology that makes it bunk science?

@Lucas_Politics @rokhannacycle It's not weird, he's just saying that he's focused on rebuilding the country rather than in securing the presidency in a future election.

@iamparasocial @thesoypill @hutchinson No need to apologise, I'm a forgiving man.

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@iamparasocial @thesoypill @hutchinson Also because he's stupid.

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@iamparasocial @thesoypill @hutchinson I don't really like Hasan, but I do think he's stupid enough to just not know what that phrase means.

@_Reaganite_ I don't think ancient/medieval China was communist.

@SpaghettiKozak @WHE_Reborn @StalkerGrunt1 @TS8660615248066 @fauxstonox I don't dispute that either, but that once again has nothing to do with whether Chechnya gave NATO a raison d'être, which was your original argument.

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@WHE_Reborn @SpaghettiKozak @StalkerGrunt1 @TS8660615248066 @fauxstonox My point has nothing to do with whether the Chechens deserved independence or not. That wasn't the point of the original discussion.

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@SpaghettiKozak @StalkerGrunt1 @TS8660615248066 @fauxstonox He did, but that isn't a legal argument, and it was said by a man known for saying stupid things and then reneging on them. Nonetheless, this discussion was about the relationship between NATO and Chechnya, and Western governments affirmed that Chechnya was a part of Russia.

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@StalkerGrunt1 @TS8660615248066 @SpaghettiKozak @fauxstonox But Chechnya was already a constituent republic of the Russian Federation, the Federation Treaty only recalibrated the relationship between the autonomous regions and the federal centre.

@StalkerGrunt1 @TS8660615248066 @SpaghettiKozak @fauxstonox Where was the legal basis for secession?

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@TS8660615248066 @SpaghettiKozak @fauxstonox I know, it was a rhetorical question. I don't see how Yeltsin fighting against a secessionist movement in Chechnya has any bearing on the existence of NATO. Chechnya had no right of secession, regardless of whether you think they should be independent (which is debatable).

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@TS8660615248066 @SpaghettiKozak @fauxstonox He invaded his own country?

[SlavicRousseau @SlavicRousseau]

@SpaghettiKozak @fauxstonox What did Yeltsin do?
