I guess someone finally realised that Russia didn’t blow up the Nordstream.
Kraut interpreter here, this has - at least officially - very little to do with Nordstream, there is still no public discussion about the issue, MSM suppressing it any way they can.
- Ukraine aid being withheld is officially about the "deficit brake". Imagine if the Republicans made it a law that the deficit can't be increased, and the Democrats slavishly obeyed that rule. It's kinda like that in Germany right now, and it makes absolutely no economic sense for one of the "biggest economies in the world" (in name at least), ever. But it's being observed.
- There's several local elections coming up in the East, where Russia-friendly AfD and patsocs are expected to win big. The governing parties are struggling to even be elected, since there' a 5% hurdle to jump into the governing bodies, and even the "mass party" SPD can't be sure to do that, lol. The Ukraine aid issue is seen as a little boost for the locals, and might be reversed after the elctions are done in October.
- like I said, the Nordstream issue is still blocked out entirely. There's a dribble of reporting here and there, but always only for 1-2 days, and always according to the official governing line, about how a bunch of rogue Ukrainians blew up a pipeline nobody wanted or needed. There's no discussion why Germany invested at least $10 billion into the project, or why there is an economic crisis ever since we decided Russian gas was evil. It's always the "global economic situation", or the "consequences of Russia's brutal war of aggression". Be glas you don't have to live in this country, it's maddening at times.
Hope this illustrates the workings behind that decision, feel free to ask questions.
GOOD post
I don't know why anyone was even dooming over this.
Yes, I was somehow dooming myself. I blame the good folks on this here website, you all posted stuff like how it's an embarassment for le Putin and it's conceivable that Ukraine might seize a much larger chunk of Russia and so on.
Anyway I think I can tell my grandkids how I experienced the Ukrainian Battle of the Bulge attempt, and they'll ask "Why did they do this? In Kursk? Didn't Napoleon lose Army Group Center in Kursk back in 1844? Why did nobody learn and hasten peace negotiations after that"
This is kinda outdated though, right? All countries have won significantly more medals by now?
Looking up a random medals table here gives me:
By the way, so far I have seen ZERO cope why Germany is doing so bad in the news here. Just like Nordstream it's something that's just not being talked about I guess.
They used to be in the top 5 medal countries until like 2012. I don't know why they have fallen off so badly, probably general Germany decline or something.
Serves them right 
but I want to see cope!
Can't view the page.
Thanks, Ursula!
may you find a use for this meme at some point in your hexbear career!
I can definitely see the

This is a clear warning to anyone who thinks about delving into Bayesian statistics, imo.
