When it comes to selecting the dumbest thing the media-political class have said about the Ukraine, it is, to use an appropriately military metaphor, a target-rich environment.
I’m not just talking about the jaw-dropping hypocrisy of Justin “Moosealini” Trudeau vowing to “stand against authoritarianism”, or US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken fulminating that Putin wants “regime change” (because the US has never done that).
No, I’m talking about the absolutely stump-dumb and the forehead-smacking, eye-rolling cretinism.
Which naturally brings us to John Kerry.
Kerry, remember, is the former Secretary of State who, when informed that an al Qaeda terrorist set free from Guantanamo Bay by Obama had gone right back and joined another terror group, mumbled blankly, “He’s… uh… not supposed to be doing that…” I mean, if you can’t trust a terrorist, who can you trust, right?
But Kerry’s no longer Secretary of State. Oh, no — instead, he’s now the Very Special Climate Envoy. So naturally, he’s got his mind on bigger things than war.
Despite the potential beginnings of a bloody invasion in Ukraine by Russian forces, the White House’s international climate envoy, John Kerry, is urging Russia not to lose sight of global efforts to reduce green house gas emissions.
“I’m concerned about Ukraine because of the people of Ukraine and because of the principles that are at risk,” Kerry said during an interview with BBC. “I hope diplomacy will win. But, massive emissions consequences to the war.”

Yes, have you seen how much carbon dioxide a fighter jet emits? (Don’t tell me you can’t see carbon dioxide — Greta says she can, so who am I going to believe?) And I bet there’s not one electric tank in the whole Russian invasion force!
Perhaps the Climate Strikers and Extinction Rebellers should link arms on the front line and shout, “How dare you!” at the advancing Russians. I’m pretty sure the obvious outcome would be a win for us all.
But for absolute dumb-fuck cluelessness, you have to go to the global omphalos of idiocy, The View.
Perhaps desperate to one-up anchor-moron Whoopi Goldberg’s world-leading dumbassity in declaring that the Holocaust “wasn’t about race”, Joy Behar played the Karen card. I mean, who cares if people die and nations fall — has anyone thought about an ageing Hollywood hag’s holiday plans?
Behar is devastated that she might have to put her Italy travel plans on hold because of the situation in Ukraine as NATO puts defense plans into place.
“Well, I’m scared of what’s gonna happen Western Europe too,” Behar said.
“You know, you just, you plan a trip, you wanna go there,” she said.
The manager’s name is “Vladimir”: ask for him by name, Joyce.
“I’ve wanted to go to Italy for four years, and I haven’t been able to make it because of the pandemic, and now this, you know, it’s like, ‘what’s gonna happen there too?”

This reminds me of the time I had a whole week booked at a Mallacoota time share and devastating drought and bushfires wiped out the whole place. Some people just have no consideration.
There are rich women wanting to go on holidays, Vlad, you heartless bastard.
