Fred, you stated that you didn't want the U.S. to "bankroll it all." I showed that we are not "bankrolling it all" not in any way, shape, or form. Other countries are contributing to the defense of Ukraine.
"Yes, the U.S. contributes more military equipment than others. I am not disputing that. I do not know why you needed to make that distinction, other than to argue about the choice of words."
I think that any Ukrainian soldier can answer that for you.
Fred, Koo, it appears, is a concrete semanticist. Please choose your words carefully. Remember that she has no opinions to offer so she will quibble over your verbiage, trying to turn that into a "gotcha" moment. Remember in her world, "It depends on the definition of what is, is".

Once again, putting words in my mouth. What is it with you boys?
All of my comments are based on the graph, Statista, that you provided. Please point out which, if any, are your own words.
From your comments, which are ad hominem attacks, nothing more substantive. It would be helpful for you to gain some knowledge of the subject, i.e. U.S. aid to Ukraine and then come back to the forum.
"What is it with you boys?" Is this meant to be a sexist remark? If not what?

I am not arguing that you are incorrect. I am stating that Fred said he didn't want to "bankroll it all." I pointed out, via the graph, that the U.S. is not "bankrolling it all," and that other countries are contributing to the defense of Ukraine. I don't know how to explain it any more plainly. Do you really need me to once again connect the dots for you?
The "what is it with you boys" is in reference to how you two talk about me in the third person, as in "K likes to..." or "Koo thinks that..." You're both putting words in my mouth, making assumptions about me.
