People just slaughter sometimes:

I haven’t posted anything on the situation in the Ukraine because, well, I have nothing to post. We all know the situation. Putin’s fighting a proxy war against the CIA-installed government in Kiev.

This is like an alternative reality that “we all” claim to know about but of which I’m completely unaware. I don’t think it was possible to follow the elections in Ukraine more closely than I did, and I haven’t even seen anybody claim that the elections were anything but transparent, democratic, honest, and clean. And now this strange person is claiming that “we all know” about “the CIA-installed government in Kiev.” What does that even mean? 

It is beyond bizarre that somebody who is so ignorant about Ukraine that he uses the outdated and offensive “the Ukraine” (I suspect he also stresses the first syllable when he says it, “the YOUUUU-kraine”) would make these “as we all know” pronouncements.

If you continue reading the linked post, you will see that it become even more bizarre as it goes on. 

It isn’t just ignorance that bugs me but also how self-satisfied and smug it is. “I have nothing to say, so I will just offend an entire huge country that is being ravaged at this very moment because that’s a fun ting to do.” What a nasty, shameless, disgusting thing to do.

“Moishe, you know, I’ve decided to quit speaking Russian.”

“What, Sarah, you fear that Ukrainian nationalists will beat you up?”

“No, Moishe, I’m afraid Russians will come to save me.”
