Where are those liberals who claim Kim Jong-un and Maduro are eating like kings while overseeing a starving populace?

While Ukraine burns, the brutal right-wing dictator Zelensky eats cake. While imperialists seethe, Maduro noms on an empanada.

Cocaine is a helluva drug

Wouldn't cocaine make you lose a lot of weight seeing as its a potent stimulant? It would be really hard to add weight on a cocaine, meth, or other stimulant addiction.

Cocaine lasts like 15 minutes and the OD window is pretty narrow so you can't use it for too long consecutively. The crash and withdraw make you depressed damn near ahedonic so people could definitely eat that feeling away. Meth makes you lose weight because it keeps you awake, dopamine feuled, and appetite suppressed upwards of 16 hours per high

Chronic cocaine usage prevents the body’s formation of fat storage and causes long term difficulty in maintaining a healthy weight. The appetite suppressant only adds to this problem, and it last much much longer then 15 minutes. The cocaine anhedonia also commonly leads to people eating less food, rather then more, as the body is not motivated enough with dopamine to consume.

Cocaine also increases metabolism by a significant margin, along with increasing body temperature. Both leading to an increased burning of calories even when stationary and at rest.

So while it is possible, gaining weight on cocaine is really damn hard. It is mostly a symptom of getting clean off of cocaine.

Meth is a whole other league though, and I will agree.

I'm skeptical that Zelensky is actually a cocaine addict. I read that the interview where he said that was spliced.

But I wouldn't be surprised if it were true.

Can we get an interview with an average Ukrainian citizen because I'm really starting to think Big Z isn't speaking for anyone but himself.

The war in Ukraine will not be over so long as Crimea is occupied by Russia. ftfy

Comrade Zelensky is right

Putin needs to stop causing Russian and Ukrainian plebs to die for his own amusement from the ivory tower

War isn't right

So the answer is to keep fighting until Ukraine gains more land than it started with? That doesn't sound very anti-war to me.

No, Ukraine should stop at their borders as Zelensky here states. It doesn't need to do what Russia has done.

Ideally they wouldn't even need to fight back the conquered areas. Putin or his successor should retreat so peace can be negotiated.

The OP screenshot reads:

Zelensky tells CNN the war will not end so long as Crimea is occupied

You said,

… Zelensky is right … War isn’t right

Again, Crimea was lost to Ukraine in 2014. Taking Crimea means gaining ground that Ukraine did not hold before the war. This goal will prolong, not shorten the tragedy. Therefore, showing agreement with this goal means that while you say war is bad, you're materially okay with war so long as it's against people you don't like. That's inconsistent.

Ideally they wouldn’t even need to fight back the conquered areas. Putin or his successor should retreat so peace can be negotiated.

And, materially, they don't have to fight for them. All they have to do is comply with the Minsk agreements. If Russia were then to renege and continue the war, things might be different.

It's unlikely that Putin's successor would do something substantially different. They might prosecute the action differently but they are still likely to prosecute the action. Arguments that see redemption in a successor to Putin fail to (a) treat the Russian people seriously, as capable, autonomous actors, and (b) fail to take Russia's concerns seriously re: NATO expansion, NATO-led coups, the Nazi problem, and the well documented conflict in eastern Ukraine from ~2014 until this war.

Untrue. Please avoid assumptions that don't relate to my comments.

The war is wrong and the quickest most humane end to it is Russia's exit. Since it's beginning in '14.

It is also horrible that they prop nazis around world for their excuses. It's hardly believable that a nazi Putin would denazify anything
