If someone could do a video tutorial on getting Jerboa running locally for the purposes of local development iterations, that would make it so much easier for me (and probably people like me) to get involved and help

There’s nothing to lie about. What we’re seeing is a proxy war between the US and Russia. The US explicitly listed conflict with Russia and China as their new strategic focus during the Obama administration. The US was making plans to include Ukraine in NATO under Clinton while Clinton was saying to Russian leaders that this would never happen.

The US has been working on Ukraine for a very long time, as part of the strategy to dominate Europe and keep Russia from competing with them.

NATO, the world’s first transnational military force, staffed and led by literal Nazi officers, built specifically to fight Russia, has been deploying nuclear capabilities all around the world to encircle China and Russia. Deploying weapons systems to the Russia/Ukraine border would be a massive strategic check on Russia by the US. The US wanted this. It worked on Ukraine for decades to bring this about.

Russia invaded Ukraine to fight the US. The US funds, arms, trains, recruits, and provides logistical support for Ukraine but the people dying are Ukrainian.

This is the literal definition of a proxy war.

I’m down for laugh - what political ideology do you believe you hold?

Said the liberal screeching while their global hegemony slowly crumbles around them.

I could never take credit for your demonstrated mastery of bullshit

Classic liberal - “history doesn’t matter, the only things that matter are within the contextual boundaries I draw that support my assertions. No, you’re the fallacy!”

Pure brain rot

The US has been encircling Russia and China for decades with nuclear weapons and nuclear first strike capabilities. The idea that Russia just up and invaded Ukraine for no reason is a Western liberal construction that requires memoryholing the last 25 years of US/NATO aggression, expansion, and nuclear development.

The US has proven, repeatedly, that they don’t honor their agreements. The only way they won’t invade again is if they are kicked out and if Russia has a modern military fully capable of kicking NATO’s ass if it tries again.

What’s wrong is your framing. The US is an imperial warmonger and they created the conditions for a proxy war, which Russia engaged with. Russia invaded Ukraine as part of the proxy war with the US. Claiming that the US is just helping Ukraine with its war against Russia is completely misunderstanding what’s actually happening.

Flatpaks are actually pretty OK. There’s a security layer that can tweaked with FlatSeal and you can control every single resource a flatpak binary has access to.
