>Your unsubstantiated Ukrainian news is cope and cringe
>Now listen to my unsubstantiated Russian news and don't ask questions
A video is a video mate, I don't know what to tell you. If we're going to post unsubstantiated Ukrainian copes, posting slightly more substantiated Russian copes is fair play.

so easy to debunk your bullshit. the ruble has been shit for months. Two different exchanges so you don't accuse me of cherry picking.
Isn't the tweet about FX futures rather than raw forex markets? Derivative traders bet on what the price will be in weeks ahead, rather than buying/selling at current prices; seems they're bearish on the Russian Ruble. But it's hard to comment definitively on anything since there seems to be a fair bit of volatility just while I am writing this post.

This shouldn't come as a shock to anyone, the US and UK were sounding the alarm over a month ago while they were acting like this was all just noise.

Then Putin spat in all their faces.

Look at some of actions the EU and it's members have taken already, they're incandescent.

Does feel like the Masters Of The Universe are mortally offended by something not going according to keikaku
 
When my Russian vodka is being taken away yes I am upset.
I know a guy, Jim Rauch, (maybe you’ve heard of him, he was a professional musician for years who played every Country Club in Cincinnati), who’ll probably shed a tear or two because he does love himself a vodkatonic or 10. I, personally, won’t have a problem as long as the store down the road has Budlight. I’d never drink Bud Heavy, though, only alcoholics like my brother Roy drink that shit.

This is a Uki cope, the Russian Air Force has been having a turkey shoot outside the cities. Remember how Ukrainians claimed they retook Gostomel? Yeah they didn't the Russian northern advance linked up with the VDV guys on the 24th, 200 VDV with Air Support held the Ukrainians off.

https://youtu.be/g5IWimg4H0I (one day after the Ukrainians "retook" Gostomel while having no video or picture proof)
I wonder if Russian pilots and tankers train on War Thunder and World of Tanks and DCS in their spare time.

I assume ARMA is currently too much for them.

I wonder how the world would be if the former Soviet Union didn't dissolve. I don't mean them maintaining communism, but if the Union State as a federative or even confederative country succeeded and everything except for the Baltics and maybe Caucasian states stayed united.
A second People's Republic of China maybe
That's a potato? Maybe it's my bad eyes but it looks like a prairie dog.
I thought it was some frog
I only wish that this was true. I wish I was back there now.
I would like to be back in 2000

Flicked on BBC world news, they were talking about how there are discussions to bring forth a war crimes tribunal for Putin.
Is invading another country a war crime? Seems to me like that would mean at least one side of every war is automatically a war criminal.
 
To be fair at the time if you considered what the Japanese had been doing to other human beings since 1937 in terms of war crimes and terror (including Chem weapons AND Bioweapons), that was really more atomic just desserts.
Nuking someone because they canceled trade with you is hundreds of magnitudes more petty.

Going by that logic, the US should nuke itself, if you read back through US history in the last 100 years.

No self-reflection or awareness as they discuss the 75 years since WWII and the world's not a place where leaders shouldn't be held accountable.

They're really going hard to give up any pretence the US and the West aren't just thug bullies, seeking to dominate the world. Making the rest of the world play by different rules than they afford themselves.

No wonder China will win favour. For all their horribleness. They aren't sanctimonious pretending they're not asshole.

The West is going to really risk tearing itself down, bringing about the collapse as they have a hissy fit that they can't control every country on Earth.
The entire world is sanctioning Russia into the ground and your take is the WEST is tearing itself down?
