^Russian boys don't need no school anyways, they are just being cultivated like hogs in a barn to be sent to the slaughterhouse of Ukraine when they are old enough.

Anyways... turns out Elon is looking way more connected to Putin then he would care to admit. I will never buy a fucking Tesla product EVER.

Which might be against the law in the US. Wonder how Tesla stock is going to react to this news. And whether SpaceX is going to come under scrutiny in the US...

To be fair, he denies this. He said the last time he spoke to Putin was many months ago and the only topic they discussed was space.
To know is essentially the same as not knowing. The only thing that occurs is the rearrangement of atoms in your brain.

Well, either way, there's a chance the FBI might pay him a visit to ascertain his loyalties.

A Look at History Helps to Understand the War in Ukraine
by Cain Burdeau
History, now, really?

Cossacks... Russia, Ukraine, Cossacks, but there are more Cossacks further down (SE), we don't mention them?, they are not part of History or of this story.
Poland... anything to say about Poland?, its interactions with Russia and Ukraine? Belarus, Lithuania, they never had anything to do with History in that area?
More than History this looks like a redacted CIA report.
