Russian Invasion of Ukraine (2022): Thread 1 - Ukrainian Liars vs Russian Liars with Air and Artillery Superiority

[doesnotglow]

The psychology of a pro-Putin Russian in the face of the economic reality is really something to behold. I cannot understand just how psychologically cucked you have to be to see the prices of everything skyrocket in a few days, see massive lines at banks to withdraw foreign currency, see how the government is forcing you to sell foreign currency, how they froze the stock exchange, how the banks are blatantly lying about stability, how your savior coin is going to be Xi's changbux, and still think things are going well and the government should be supported. If you don't care about how much things cost then you are either so poor that you have nothing to lose or you are just retarded.

Some contractors in the EU getting fired has exactly zero impact on me as an American. This actually benefits me since I own a lot of $XOM which is up 47% the last 6 months. And now only doing better under the risk of RU getting locked out of the EU market. Europe gets poorer, I get richer. Win/Win.
Now the Eurocucks are going to be spending tons on burger defense equipment thanks to Russia. Who wins? The American stock holders and their 401K's.

US oil and gas companies have rock hard boners over this. Bakken is back boys. Load up the camper and head to Williston. Bring your work boots. There is money to be made. It's 2006 all over again. Frack everything. Woooooo.

But there is even more than that. The Marcellus Shale Play. That has been sitting and waiting for energy prices to come around and demand to spike. Same with several large LNG export facilities on the east coast just waiting for capital.

Hooking the EU up to the US gas pipe is going to solve many issues.

Russian movies especially near the end of the USSR and after have far more nuanced and human depictions of Hitler like the Germans do. Because it is a nation which suffered far more from him then others, I think there's a tendency to have more of a sober analysis of Hitler's personality rather then a clown or a cartoon character.

The only good depiction of hitler as far I'm concerned

How the FUCK do their trains look nicer than our trains in America.

Why use our rail lines for mainly freight, have enough disposable income to afford cars, have cities with their associated infrastructure that weren't built when castles were popular, and were the first adopters of transcontinental rail.

 

[A_Callow_Youth]

Shit like Amtrak aside, America just doesn't have the infrastructure (or need, really, considering that everyone has a car) for mass rail transit. Trains are so prevalent in post-communist nations because you had to sit on waiting lists for a decade to get a shitty Lada.

 

[MrJokerRager]

So where is RT being censored then?


To quote your original post


If you are saying its being censored on fucking cable then who in the fuck cares, Regular TV has always been trash and is only used to control the boomers.

Lurk Moar.

Imagine being such a consoomer that you think this way.

Thats it guys, here's a picture of a small child with a sign, we have no choice but to start the nuclear apocalypse now

But it has 10 gorillion Reddit updoots and Twitter retweets! I HAVE to agree with it and make it my identity!

Looks like these retards haven't learned anything from the Russian way of doing things when it comes to schools.

Beslan school siege - Wikipedia

I hate when Beslan is brought up

The Russian police and local milita were incompetent, yes. But you had dozens of well armed Chechen fighters, explosives everywhere and hundreds of Hostages. I'd like to see any European or Anglo country do better. Nobody incessantly reminds Germany of the Munich Olympics hostage crisis and its total failure to deal with only a few Palestinian combatants and about a dozen hostages.

 

[Bananadana]

Exactly. Vlad couldn't have handed a nicer present to America if he tried. Europe is now beholden to America in a way it hasn't been since 1946. And not just the western half. All of it. Economically, diplomatically, militarily. All because of genius geopolitical Vlad daddy. Dunno wtf he was thinking, did he think he wasn't going to scare Europe right back into America's waiting arms?

Vladimir Putin, from globohomo's number one enemy to globohomo's number one asset. With this one weird trick.

I dont get how europas treacherous leadership putting on sanctions that damage their own and the russian economy equally to save a slavic shithole that isnt even in the EU is Putins fault.
Nobody forced these "leaders" to act against the interests of their own countries (especially germany). They are just beholden to US interests and corrupt.
The only smart position for the EU would be a neutral one. Just say "ooh russia bad" and leave it at that. Why get involved in centuries old retarded slavic blood-feuds ?

If the US government wants to save the latest regime-change pet-project of their political establishment with weapons or sanctions or whatever, then let them do that alone.

Especially with Bidementia at the helm in the US, why cant you see the guilt of the european "leaders" who just blindly follow the american geo-political line like a lap-dog ?

Ok, so you need to understand something about Russia that remains true regardless of who rules. They are very paranoid, and think the west is out to get them. Russian history is filled with them being wary of enemies both real and imagined, so for the pro putin types all these sanctions are just justifying those views. In short they're not going "he fucked us", they're going "shit he was right, they are out to fuck us".

Was this posted? They're doing cancel culture on a whole ass country now.

It won't help, EA, you're still going to win "Worst Company in America" this year again unless Comcast gets drunk and rigs it in their favor again.

God dammit. I really want this to be fake (despite how good a job its author did if this really is fake), but it's also CNN we're talking about so I can't afford to make that assumption.

Hasn't whoever tard-wrangles CNN mandated Sam Hyde recognition training for all employees by now?

 

[BigThaiGreenCurry]

Lurk Moar.

Ok, so RT isn't being censored and your original spergout was about something that might occur?

 

[JosephStalin]

Holy shit! No Pornhub for Russians! Putin gives in!

Noticed Pepsi isn't on the no-business-with-Russia list. Hmmm...bet they don't even HAVE RC Cola there.

 

[Kendall Motor Oil]

But it has 10 gorillion Reddit updoots and Twitter retweets! I HAVE to agree with it and make it my identity!

If it reaches a critical mass of updoots, Putin must legally abdicate and implement liberal democracy run by unelected bureaucrats with degrees. Labour won the last election in twitter engagement alone.

I'm going to wager he thought taking all of Ukraine would be as easy as when he grabbed part of Ukraine back in 2014, and that the world would give only slightly more of a shit about it than it has his last few foreign adventures. He failed to appreciate the scale of this one, nor the work Ukraine's put towards not getting more chunks of it taken by Russia since then. And I think everyone's surprised by the scale and ferocity of the international backlash that's come with Ukraine successfully making a fight out of it.

 

[ColtWalker1847]

America's train systems are absolute ass compared to elsewhere.

It's funny when people actually believe this.

Passenger rail is for commies. It is expensive and shitty and only exists because of government subsidies. White elephants. I'm glad the US doesn't fuck around with that nonsense.

Freight rail, however, is extremely important. Guess who leads in that category.

damage their own and the russian economy equally to save a slavic shithole that isnt even in the

equally

could you cope any harder retard

I don't want Ukraine to join another congolomeration of nations! I want Ukraine to remember me forever after I die. Ten years at least.

One thing I absolutely hate about the Ukraine fanboys in this thread is the weird personalization of geopolitics they do.

“Russia is a bully”
“Russia is a jilted lover”
“Russia just doesn’t want to let Ukrainians make their own choices”

It’s bizarre. Russia probably believes that allowing Ukraine to become another American puppet in Eastern Europe is destructive to its long term interests. Putin is paranoid and a gambler, so he opted for a preemptive attack when he saw NATO and Ukraine do joint military exercises in 2021 and saw the writing on the wall.

Just for everybody’s information: countries that aren’t great powers are not actually sovereign and are generally indirectly ruled by great powers. America successfully seized power in Ukraine a decade ago, and now Russia is trying to take it back. “Ukrainian independence” is meaningless and whoever controls media in Ukraine will manufacture public opinion in the long term.

 

[Sammich]

They aren't sending their best cope, folks.

There is no universe in which Ukraine is worth bending the full force of globohomo on Russia. We'll see how much Russians enjoy Ukraine being theirs when the ruble keeps reaching new lows against the dollar, the Moscow stonk market still isn't open, and the Central Bank's coffers are emptier than Hillary's twat

You dumb motherfucker, I'm sure putin was all "LOL I CAN TAKE THIS AND NO ONE WILL CARE AT ALL.. WATCH ME BORIS" The west hates russia, period, they've been shitting on putin for 5-6 years straight, looking for any reason to hammer him. DESPITE this he still went out and took ukraine. And you seem to think Putin is so stupid he didn't know, and couldn't possibly have planned ahead. That's it, Putin is just fuckign stupid and dumb and is totally gonna get owned for generations.
Get back to me in a couple months, when Biden on hands and knees is begging for russian oil and nat gas.. after the puppet state twink faggot manlet we put in charge has deposed, and probably hanged (I can dream) after being tried for high crimes and faggotry on russian state tv.
