I’m not arguing either of these points, I’m just pointing out that all NYT is saying here is that US officials have always believed that Russia wants this war to stay contained to Ukraine. Not that they think Russia didn’t want this war or that Russia doesn’t have other interests it will pursue external to this war.
All I’m saying is NYT didn’t really reveal anything here.
I’m not trying to get flamed as a lib here, but there’s a gulf of difference between “not wanting to expand the war” and “having no further ambition once the war is over”
I gotta start going to bars 😅
my shoes were feeling a little tight
I’m nonbinary transfem and I also don’t relate to “woman”. My identity really grew out from wanting people to not perceive me as a “man”. I wanted to be a beautiful queer little femcreature that other queer femcreatures adore. As I experience femininity, particularly within cishet society, I find myself even more turned off by any expectations of gender, and emboldened in my own identity and selfexpression. It’s a good thing 🫠
