Putin invaded Ukraine, and stunned the world by get his arse kicked. Sure they took some parts of Ukraine that they hadn’t already occupied, but for the lives lost, and the Rubles spent it has been a total disaster.

Now he is reduced to outright lies to justify his actions. That may work at home. Russians may believe it, but right now Russia has lost so much of its credibility.

Putin is proving to be a joke of a commander in chief and a very poor strategist. He picked one fight too many.

The once mighty Bear is more like a Cub now.

Sweden and Finland applying for NATO membership as a direct result of this invasion is also a pretty big blow. Another unforced error.

You are supporting George Bush's New World Order. You are supporting the type of people who would release a biological weapon on the entire planet as a pretense to oust a political rival. You are supporting forever wars.

What you are not supporting is the one fricking man on this planet with the balls and ability to stand up to these evil bastards. We have been telling you for five years now that the goal is to destroy the current order. And if you'll pay attention, that is exactly what is happening.

Does this mean that Putin is on our side in this? Absolutely. He has said as much explicitly. That he is taking down the corrupt, Satanic western world order. And he's exactly right about what they are. This is something else we have been telling you for five damn years now.

Get your heads out your asses and get on the right side of history.

End of an era. All line unit vehicles not slated for a CENTCOM mission are being painted Woodland green.

can’t wait for the next Ben garrison comic showing a cleanly labeled trump, Putin, and joe rogan defiantly filtering swamp water with Biden and Pelosi frowning as they watch and a floating laptop being pulled in by Zelenskyy.

Russian propagandist Simonyan asks Elon Musk to unblock Russia Today’s Twitter account
Thursday, 27 October 2022, 16:29

THURSDAY, 27 OCTOBER 2022, 16:29

Margarita Simonyan, the editor-in-chief of the Russian Kremlin-aligned television channel Russia Today and propagandist for the Kremlin, asked Elon Musk, the owner of the SpaceX company, to unblock the Twitter accounts of Russia Today and the Russian state-owned agency Sputnik News.

Source: Simonyan on Twitter

Quote: "Elon, since you are all for freedom of speech, then perhaps you will unblock the accounts of RT and Sputnik and remove the shadow ban from my account?"

Details: On Wednesday, 26 October, Musk hinted that he had bought the Twitter company which owns the social network of the same name. The billionaire changed his bio on Twitter to "Chief Twit".

Last I checked Twitter was blocked in Russia unless a VPN was used. Maybe one of the resident russian bots can verify.

The idiots on the poliboard have zero clue what "New World Order" meant at the time.

There have been many "New World Orders" is we just look at Europe. Rome was the "world" leader, later it was Spain and the Caliphate of the time. Later it was England, Later it was The USA and the USSR, then it was only the USA.

I know I missed a lot but these idiots with an IQ high enough to only constantly drool just love to get themselves worked up over nothing.

I believe it is. But Russia wants to get its message out to tankies, vatniks, and persuadables.

It looks like they did back in March (Guardian link).

quote:

The bill, quickly rubber-stamped by both houses of the Kremlin-controlled parliament and signed by Putin, imposes prison sentences of up to 15 years for those spreading information that goes against the Russian government’s narrative on the war.


Maybe Elon could use his amazing negotiating skills to force Russia to allow freedom of anti-government speech in exchange.

Ah, who are we kidding? Elon will totally unlock their accounts and the Poli Board will celebrate.

The Elon hate in this thread is hilarious.

It must suck to know that Musk has done more to help Ukraine in their fight against Russia than any single other individual on the planet while at the same time buy Twitter for the sole purpose of ruining progressive lives.

Elon is bending the knee to corporate advertisers, at least at the moment. If you open it up to unimpeded trolling, the user experience will tank and drive off users until all that's left is crypto, disinfo, nazis, and porn.

We are talking about Boar Ed. My 7 year old daughter has a higher IQ then that smooth-brained Cro-Mangun. I'm surprised he even knows how to speak/type basic English.

Well this is false. Massively.

The US/West is outspending Russia by multiples. Its not even a question.

Further, AFU's tactics are losing more troops than Russia.

Its a disaster alright, just not in the way you want it to be.
