Well I guess every now & then a Christian leader needs to assassinate or imprison a political opponent or two or three. You know, in the name of "Christian morality".
I sure as hell woudn't want to live* in a country as autocratic & repressive as Putin's Russia. But I do give the man his due as a politician & player in world affairs. His military has a tiny fraction of the global power & reach of the USA, & Russia's military spending is roughly 1/9 of ours. But he always seems to get a lot of geostrategic bang for his buck - Georgia 2008, Syria 2013-present, Crimea 2014.
More to the point, Putin understands the USA better than most Americans themselves; better than our establishment media commentariat for sure. He understands us as we are rather than what we like to think we are. Most important, he knows where our weak points are & knows how best to attack them.
Maybe one agrees with his politics, maybe not. I don't. But it's important for all of us to see Putin for what he is rather than what he poses as. I'm sure some Americans will just lap this $h!t up. But come on, "biblical values" my arse.
* Wouldn't want to live in Russia, unless I was Ed Snowden. Russia may not be the freest country in the world, but it's a lot freer than an American federal prison.

No, we need to exterminate our enemies
Okay, it's one thing to advocade this in theory, but when we get down to the actual business of murder, terror & genocide, your call-to-arms leaves several pertinent questions unanswered.
What method(s) do you believe should be employed in this extirmation project? Are we talking mass arrests & deportations? Show trials & public denunciations? Forced marches? Forced-labor camps? Gas chambers? Lining people up beside open pits & spraying them with bullets? After all, there are plenty of historical examples to choose from: the Holocaust of 1938-45 the Cultural Revolution of 1966-76, Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal of 1837-38, Armenia/Turkey 1915, Bosnia/Yugoslavia 1994-95, Rwanda 1994.
What would qualify an American as one of these internal enemies? Is it a matter of skin color, ethnic identity or language or sexuality? Or simply a matter of espousing alien or incorrect political ideology? Suspect occupation or career, like journalist or professor?
And then, how, precisely, would you sort the enemies from the worthy? Simple litmus test, or would it be the result of information gathered by surveillance & investigations? Or would Americans simply be ordered to turn in suspects to police?
And then, do you advocate carrying out this extermination by legal means - e.g., with trials & executions - or extrajudicial means such as pogroms, arson & random gunfire?
It's easy to advocate mass murder, but the devil as always is in the details.

Nope. Even if there were some constitutional mechanism for undoing an already-certified election & deposing the elected official - which there isn't - the 2020 presidential election wasn't even that close - no "audit" can possibly reverse or discredit the outcome.
What is more, Fvckface ain't getting any more popular. Going into the '22 elections, i want him to be the face of the Republican Party, if only to guard against complacency among Democratic voters. If the Republicans are foolish enough to renominate him in '24, that's a sure pathway to defeat & oblivion (& possibly another attempt at a putsch, but that's another matter).

Bonnie Prince Charlie at least had his rump navy. What have you guys got beyond these ridiculous, way-after-the-fact "audits"? I mean, who precisely is going to "restore" the vanquished ruler to his throne? Ammon Bundy? The 3%ers? The remnants of the Capitol posse?

re: We and Britain failed Hong Kong

The only lease to expire was the new territories.
True. And while Britain could have held onto Hong Kong Island & Kowloon after the lease on the New Territories expired in 1997, they would have been difficult to defend militarily & city would have been cut off from its hinterlands.
So Margaret Thatcher offered Deng Xiaoping a deal: Britain would hand over the entire territory - including HK Island & Kowloon - & in exchange Communist China would allow it internal self-government & respect Hong Kong residents' liberties for 50 years. "One country, two systems" became the mantra. This last provision is where China obviously has reneged on the deal.
I suppose that back in 1984 Thatcher could have derecognized the Communist government & recognized the Nationalist government on Taiwan as the legitimate government of all of China, but by that time that ship had sailed - almost the entire world, including the UK & the US, had by then switched their diplomatic recognition from Taipei to Beijing. Such a move would have left Britain diplomatically isolated & might have even provoked a war.
It's lamentable the state of liberty in Hong Kong nowadays. But what, precisely, should the USA do about it?

I'm sure a lot of undergrads feel the same about being forced to pay for football whether they attend games or not. Likewise, i felt that way about being forced to fund the College Republicans & all their little stunts. But i don't recall when i was in college being able to opt out of said fees because of any moral objections to any of the student groups that received some (modest) funding through this channel. Considering that student activity fees cover so many things, why is this particular thing so upsetting to you?

Self-awareness maybe isn't your thing.

Words like yours sure make it look like you don't love America. But at the very least, it's safe to say you don't love democracy & don't love liberty.
Granted, if the US had similarly detected an opportunity to grab Edward Snowden from his asylum in Russia, it would have acted in much the same manner. Because such an act is piracy when US adversaries do it, but not piracy when it's carried out under the imprimatur of US law (as when Canada apprehended Meng Wangzhou at US behest while she was en route to Mexico).
That said, this is certainly a chilling display of a dictator's power & reach. To all the activists wanted by Belarussian authorities, Lukashenko has made it abundantly clear that while the EU may grant them asylum, it can't protect them. Well, maybe the EU can issue a sternly worded letter if all 27 countries agree on it, but probably not, since Hungary's strongman Viktor Orban will have Lukashenko's back.

Considering all the Covid-19 outbreaks that happened aboard cruise ships, & considering the PR disaster & financial hit that would ensue if there are more outbreaks, requiring that passengers & crew be vaccinated just seems like a no-brainer.
