    I’m sorry the word paradigm confuses you, but we do have dictionaries. It’s easy too check the meaning of the word and not look stupid.

    Also, if you don’t know what someone means, you can also ask, not just think they are stupid because you don’t understand them.

      It doesn’t confuse me. It doesn’t mean what you think it does, as Ukraine is not a template.

        Look, take it easy. I know you are a kid, because you lack the self-confidence to ask people what they mean (and you shared a cartoon). But I can tell you, people that ask look way smarter than people that try to make it into a weird confrontation. Today you can just paste stuff into chatgpt or something and let it explain and for sure write a better response than you did, no offense. Plus, if you want an honest exchange of opinion, you must likely won’t get it with an arrogant behavior, but by taking a few minutes and replying with something thoughtful. You got my 10 minutes, but that’s done. Have a nice evening.

          Yeah, I’m middle-aged. You’re on quite a roll here.

          Just don’t use words you don’t understand, it’s a bad look.

            How embarassing then. Anyways what people are refusing to tell you (because it’s obvious) is that being at the center of a paradigm and being at the center of a geographical landmass are different things.

              Ukraine is neither the center geographically nor strategically of any defense of the EU.

              being at the center of a paradigm

              Yeah, once again, you don’t know what that word means. I suggest you look it up.

                Ok, double-checked the definition, it means exactly what I thought it does. You’re going to have to explain your argument like an adult if you want me to respond further to explain how you are wrong.
