I'm not sure what you're saying? That a fifty year old man that died in a Uke controlled area with a fake press pass makes Russia a great propaganda villain? Or the other way around? I don't see anyone making a fuss over him tbh.
It was sold Epstein killed himself and that Floyd did nothing wrong. Galvanizing propaganda has been built around worse figures and the US government seems like it needs a distraction from inflation. A dead kind sweat old man just trying to do his job seems like a good starting point.
 
The Pajeets beat them off with nothing but Sticks and Stones just last year. So I'm going to maintain a healthy skepticism regarding the Pooh Patrol's actual real world military capabilities. Yeah they are spending a lot. But how many Generals have they found with luxury mansions stuffed basement to ceiling with shrink wrapped pallets of money measured in hundreds of metris tons? Their money is not going to actual capabilities.
It's like that old quote "you can build a navy in a few years, but it takes decades to build a tradition". Just because they built it, doesn't mean they can use it well.
 
What the fuck is Vegeta doing in a shit hole like Chechnya?

I have my idea for an annual vote to send a blue checkmark to a North Korean labor camp for a year.

I'm thinking:
2023- David Hogg
2024- Chris Cillizza
2025- Tucker Carlson
2026- Thomas Friedman
2027- Anthony Fantano
2028- Joel Osteen
2029- Cole Smithey doesn't have a blue check
2030- Ilhan Omar
I'm thinking 2029 should be Cori Bush or whoever is that one cunt senator from Hawaii.
 
Holy shit, the people here are stupid. Yes, I'm mad at the internet.


Let me elaborate this for you chucklefucks.

There are three sides to every story. One person's side, the other person's side, and the truth.
So you're saying understanding is a three edged sword, what are you a fucking Vorlon? I mean it's true, you shouldn't trust anything involving any geopolitics unless there is undeniable evidence and even then you should be skeptical. Russia is probably lying out their ass, Ukraine is for sure lying out their ass, the US also, and the Chinks are collecting shekels while lying to save face. Zuckerburg isn't lying about anything, he's just following programming. WW3 will be fought with nukes, WW4 will be a battle between the supreme autismos Zuckerkike and John Carmack. Let's hope Carmack wins.
 
does it really count as "light arms" when ukraine is getting pumped full of nato gear by europe and america?


i think that there's absolutely no way china is going to take military action against russia. chinks kow about russian nukes just like nato does.
what i do think is that russia being cut off from western trade makes it extremely dependent on china for trade, and china will abuse that situation by squeezing russia hard. don't need to invade siberian oil fields when you can just make the russians give you the oil and gas for super cheap because you're the only country that's still buying from them.
By Light Arms I mainly mean Infantry Portable Arms. Stuff that is way cheaper to produce and distribute than a tank. The most damage to the Russian forces seems to largely be coming from small unit infantry employing ambush tactics in their own backyards.

As far as China invading Siberia. There is a difference between buying it from someone else, no matter how cheap. And having energy independence within your own borders. That’s the other thing that has to be spooking the Chinese a little bit. Just how quickly Russia went from “most favored nation trading status and member of the global finance network” to “ North Korea”. Their calculus before making any moves towards Taiwan now might involve a greater degree of energy independence. That is what crippled the Japanese Invasion of China after all. And for China the only paths to Energy independence lie south to the Malaysian oil fields, repeating Japans move. Which would involve a sea war. Or north to Siberia. Which would be a land war against a current pariah state that is rapidly expending its professional active duty army and equipment in an I’ll advised invasion in Europe. Leaving a badly led force of reservists guarding the East. Granted it is not a guaranteed win. The Russian Reservists might have sticks and stones.
 
Russia's likable to me only because the other side is so unimaginably deplorable. As bad as Putin is, I genuinely think he's not as terrible as some of NATO's leaders. I mean, unless you're Satan it's hard to be worse than a lot of them, but still, at least by some margin Putin's got moral superiority.
Putin is, and always has been, a grifter. The "wholesom based defender of da west" is the same grift as Nick Fuentes or that beard cuck.
The simping for him is pathetic. He's the same reptilian as the globohomalists, just in a different skinsuit.
Also lol he released an honest to god lolcow video.
 
Good. The big problem here is Putin doesn't seem to appreciate his proper position on the world pecking order. Maybe he'll learn all about it before he croaks. If nothing else his successor surely will.
I wouldn't be so certain. Short term yes, this has fucked Russia. Mid to long term? Who can say. It could end up being a positive by forcing them to better develop domestic industry for various things they import now. Never forget Russia is usually a bit behind the rest of the world a lot of the time, but when they play catch up, they really catch up.

He's losing the plot. Apparently he's put a whole bunch of FSB officials in house arrest for lying to him about how easy the Ukraine War would be.

We'll see. My money is on Chinese vassal state. Hell they're halfway there already from what I've heard. This assuming the country doesn't collapse in on itself following the death of the stronkman

Most of the ethno nationalist types in the west that love him would probably end up jailed in Russia is the ironic part to me. He may spread funds for those groups abroad, but at home he knows better than to have those types of groups fucking with the fragile balance of ethnicities in Russia.

He's done better rants. This was his best over the Ukrainian crisis:

What? Based Russia is a multicultural society that plays races off eachother to keep the elites in power? No fucking way dog!

That better be carrot juice you're holding there, sadiq.

I'm not certain about either of those tbh. Chinese vassal state would be for a rather short period of time, if it even happened. There's plenty of bad history there, and Putin's Russia getting along with them is a bit of an anomaly that won't last. Same thing happened in the 60s with the sino soviet split.

As to Russia collapsing in on itself because vlad died? I don't think it's likely. Russia historically handles strongman transitions of power decently well, at least compared to most other countries with em.
