US set the course of the events that culminated on the election of Bolsonaro. Every time Brazil started actually going somewhere, Uncle Sam made it sure to fuck us over and over again. Thank you very much, but Brazil has a better chance with any other country in this planet.

Normally I would agree. But given the political tensions, any Americans, especially reporters, should not be there for exactly this reason. Their job is to dig for information, well so is a spy's. So it's just way too easy for Russia to use those blurred lines right now. And when they do this they now have political leverage at a time when they really need it and we really need them to not have it. Any other time yes I'd agree we need reporters there. But in this specific case with the shit involved between these specific two world powers, I think it's best none of us are over there right now, however well meaning.

If you have to seriously ask that question, then I have one for you.
Have you been living under a rock for the past 20+ years?

Ok so. Our government told all US citizens to leave Russia asap over a week ago. This guy for some reason appears to not have listened. This is the stupid shit that we as Americans do that makes it worse. This dingbat just gave Russia leverage at a critical time when they're being politically slow backed into a corner. Like dude. Whyyyy

Oh don’t forget to throw out some more ad hominems too! Nobody said he’s going to blow up the world, stop making up strawman arguments. Ad hominems + strawman arguments + setting up a bait that if anyone disagrees with you then they’re a bigot? That means you’re not worth talking to.

Yes I’m sure you, random Redditor, know more than the fbi agents who worked to catch him. Also your insinuation that I’m a racist/homophobe at the end shows you’re not worth talking to because you’ll just be dishonest. Now can you tell me where anyone said she isn’t a decent person or were you just setting that up so you can shut down any dissent with “you’re a bigot”?

I knew it was BS they really leveraged the language of arms dealer and calling this dude “most dangerous man in Russia” or whatever the fucj.
If this dude was dangerous, why are we only hearing about him now? Lol

Or at least arming the groups who fight against the Taliban and not letting the Taliban hide behind Pakistan's borders.
