There was a post from a mass media site the other day saying Turkey was approving Sweden to join NATO. This turned out to be a bit of wishful thinking.

Here’s the deal: Putler and his orc regime are terrorists. Countries joining NATO won’t change his mind on using nukes. If there were no NATO, he’d be just as likely to do it. You see? He is a terrorist, and also a coward.
What do you mean by ‘are terrorists’? That word seems so ambiguous these days. Sometimes it means they infiltrate societies and attack civilians through homemade bombs, shootings or some suicidal maniacs. Sometimes it means they’re the baddies. Sometimes it’s a slur that basically means middle eastern. The word is meaningless to me at this point, specially when used to reference a country waging actual war against a sovereign country. Not even a guerrilla kind of thing.
They’re definitely a problem and obvious aggressors, for sure the biggest threat to peace in Europe. But how do you categorize them as ‘terrorists’?
The ruscists are attacking civilian centers and infrastructure, raping women, kidnapping and murdering children. This is terrorism.
You’re describing acts of war and actual war crimes. War is usually much more terrorific than ‘terrorism’. Calling them terrorists is like calling a mass murderer ‘mean’.
Of course they are also war criminals and worse and also terrorists.
