Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[RX-78]

because if the chinks were to occupy america they'll give americans the uyghur treatment

With what standing army you Godless retard? That's not even counting the bubbas and associates more than happy to explode dog-eaters on sight.

your facts don't care about their feelings, true, but their propaganda doesn't care about your facts either, so you still lose.

Tell that to the chinks getting attacked by niggers on the regular in major cities, lmao. Wuhan is an open secret and has been for as long as the entire psyop has been going on, the feeble anti-anti-slant eye propaganda meant to combat the rise in hate crimes against asians amounted to a fart in the wind at best and drew more attention to the lab at worst.

Germany occupying other countries via EU controls

this is a meme, probably started by butthurt greeks when germans were leading the austerity push after the 2008 crisis. when you look into it a bit deeper, even in that situation the players in question were not acting in germanys own interest, but in the interest of the brussels institutions themselves.

Nah, that treatment is reserved to subhumans like muslims and niggers.

no.

the chinese have a big axe to grind with the western powers, and america has been the leading western power for the past 70 years. the resentment is massive and should they ever achieve a position of power that allows them to act on it, they absolutely will.
the upside is that they have an even bigger axe to grind with japan, and japan is right next door, so if they ever achieve sufficient power that will likely take priority.

Which is funny because many east asian countries have an axe to grind with China. They all have a tiered hate system over there.

Doesn't this group's concept back to WWII as a response to Russian activities in the region?

Last time I checked, almost 20% of these former Soviet republic income came from such labor migrants.

Sounds about right. I know something like 15-20% of Moldova's GDP is from people sending money back home.

Always weird to me how the Baltics became relatively well-off. Moldova, Ukraine, the Central Asian Soviet republics....didn't.

Between Ukraine banning exports and Russia's sanctions... 28% of the world's wheat supply has just disappeared.

Ukraine Bans Wheat & Grain Exports Vital To Global Food Supply, Citing Citizens Under Siege (source)

"Russia and Ukraine together supply nearly a third of the world’s wheat and barley exports"

As many people in this thread know (but most normies have no idea)... The Arab Spring started because of a bad harvest in Eastern Europe. Put some compost on your living room carpet, lads. It's time to make bank.

And you know what they say... Rate this post informative or your mother will die in her sleep tonight.

Next Years Wheat is in the ground in Ukraine and we are many, many months away from the harvest. The ban itself doesn't matter at all. What will matter is if Russia wins the conflict, occupies the whole of Ukraine and then sanctions prevent any wheat exports. If I had to guess, certain people issued this press release to make a fortune on the futures market. Because just as there is no shortage of actual oil at this moment, there is no shortage of wheat or grain right now.

You think they still remember Nanking?

Always weird to me how the Baltics became relatively well-off. Moldova, Ukraine, the Central Asian Soviet republics....didn't.

The Baltics were (and are) sucking EU's tit. Everybody else you mentioned didn't.

If I buy a bunch of bread now, can I sell it at a profit in 6 months?

eu economic zone helps a lot with that, eu gibsmedat money even more. baltics are tiny countries, so propping up their economies doesn't make a big dent in the massive EU budget.

Yes, I did. I swear that link worked when I clicked 'preview'. Anyway I fixed it. Thanks.

Also next time I'll write sauce.

Biden is going to make us wish we could go back to Obama's Great Recession. This graph is going to spike so fucking much when they update it with this month's data.

I refuse to hold any ounce of empathy for anybody that still supports these fossils in our government that are accelerating our bullet train to self-extinction. If America was still America, we would've been dragging them out of Capitol Hill and lynching them in the streets.

The media played out 1/6 like it was a violent attack that yielded deadly results. This shit makes me wish it actually was.

The Baltics were always well off relative to the rest of the Russian Empire and then the Soviet Union, it dates back to the time of the Baltic German nobility's dominance of the region. Moldova was a random backwater than was the poorest shithole in Romania when it was still Bessarabia, Ukraine is catastrophe prone, and Central Asia was more of a colony than anywhere else in the Russian Empire.

I saw this vlog who was posted Yesterday about Zelensky. I don't know how credible it is but some Youtubers dropped some comments who make it smile a bit while other gived some food for thoughts. Some comments of these kind might by already mentioned but it might be worth to repost again.

The stupidest thing I keep hearing is the west must restrain Putin... wake up, Putin is aware of the WEF and their Agenda, his actions will have a real beneficial effect on the WEF if you love freedom from tyranny...and if you open your eyes you will discover that Ukraine is a world centerpoint for corruption, money laundering, people smuggling, child trafficking, drugs and more... not forgetting crimes against humanity (the local minorities are victimized, murdered, traumatized by the Ukrainian authorities) Putin is also in Ukraine to destroy the more than one dozen BioWeapons Laboratories based there to threaten Russia, these are US funded, équipes and trained Laboratories.

Funny you mention the Baltics. Riga is the emptiest major city I've ever inhabited. The place legitimately felt like it was half abandoned (despite the buildings being in quite good shape - it's a mecca for Art-Nouveau fans) and the ethnic Latvians are culturally extremely introverted people it seems (though they aren't even half of Riga's population - I heard much more Russian than Latvian spoken despite all the signage being in Latvian). This was all before Covid, and having swung through it very recently it felt just as empty as it was before. Like 4-5 people on any given large street at a time, maybe 12 maximum. Very eerie.

I've heard that Riga is even more of a ghost town since Covid started. Honestly, having been there, I like how different it feels from every other major European city. The amount of people who speak Russia there almost makes it feel like it's still a province of Russia.
