#1 Venezuela is sitting on top of the largest proven oil reserves in the world (300,878 million barrels) and Russia wants that potentially powerful reservour.

#2 I thought China already bought Venezuela.

#3 Troops or Wagner employees? The contractors are expendable and deniable in Putin's eyes

#4 The Russians did what?!? Those imperialists. The US would never send troops to a foreign country.

#5 But Remember, They Say They're No Longer Communists.

(Doo Dah Man, take Putin's, Obama's, and Xi's dicks all out of your mouth when you say that, maybe it won't sound like mumbling to the rest of us. I've been watching pseudo-isolationist-"conservatives" and communists both here and abroad cheer on the Chavista grinding down of Venezuela for the last twenty years, saying stuff about Imperialist America every step of the way.

#6 Someone's rather touchy because someone else didn't use a /sarcasm tag, aren't we?

Also - lighten up, Francis.

#7 Thing, I believe Doo-Dah Man just forgot to put sarcasm tags on his post.

#8 That was me at #6.

If you have a problem with someone, try o deal with it a bit more, shall we say, professionally. I don't see the need for a regular poster to slam another regular with that cocksucker bullshit.

#9 I’m really bad at discerning sarcasm and humour when on a computer instead of face to face, as so many here have discovered the hard way, so I am no lnger surprised when others fail to understand mind. This is why LOL, ;-), and /sarc were invented.

#10 I was under the impression that the sarcasm tag was implicit here at the 'Burg.

#12 Very well, I'm sorry, and I'll try to relax.

#14 TFSM - I've been guilty of this more than a few times myself (conveniently omitted from my scolding posts!), so maybe I'm not the best spokesman for proper conduct.

We're good - carry on...

#15 Russian army general Vasily Tonkoshkurov was in the group of 100.

#16 I was under the impression that the sarcasm tag was implicit here at the 'Burg.

No doubt. Nonetheless, as seen here that’s one of those more-honoured-in-the-breach thingies. Which is why I’ve had to apologise so often over the years.
