Once again showing Putin is the far right’s new Trump


I don’t know about that, I know some hardcore right wing people that hate Putin and Russia but that could be based on their age.

And you’re so wrapped up in hating the media first and foremost you naturally sympathize with those you see as unfairly persecuted by the media class, even a despot murderer like Putin. It’s pathetic.

It’s been clear for a few years now Trump broke half this country to the point everything has to be about Trump, even when the truth is literally opposite. Hence my point on projection.

Very hard to find factual information on the war so take this for what it’s worth. Here’s a map of what’s supposed to be the situation in Ukraine…



Here’s the source.

That was me and I merely used him as comparison and because I believe it’s a projection of our current situation into them in that respect, which has been their MO for a long time.


US though has a mechanism in place to replace POTUS if needed.

Trump was right that the media is the enemy of the people. Doesn’t change that Putin is the enemy of all of us.

Correct and at least half of those people are on the right. If Trump likes them they have to reflexively defend whoever because dear leader says so.

It’s not sympathy for Putin, it’s understanding the last 5 years of democratic tactics and media coverage.

US has a lot of mechanisms that would be helpful to prevent or remove a Biden, yet here we still are. It’s nothing more than a facade anymore.

Nothing has changed about media coverage tactics since the evolution of TV. There are just fewer owners and some groups realizing how much it sucks to be painted as constant problem.

As someone who doesn't give a shite about trump and thinks Putin is a mega douchebag objectively the media has gone to complete shite.

Nobody can forget their standards and practices the last few years. It's utterly terrible and this is all of MSM not select channels.

They're all a collective mouthpiece for either a part or alphabet agency. Their is nothing objective or neutral about their coverage at all.

I stand with the Ukrainian people. I hate that they live under oligarchs themselves but also dispose Putin and Russia.

I saw some news reports earlier that the peace talks had started. Are there any updates yet?

Sure, but that’s not new and last I checked the media didn’t invade a sovereign neighbor.

Sorry the attempted coup didn't work out for you. America's problems would be greatly helped by imposing term limits on all elected officials.

Ah, practicing safe COVID distancing during a time of war...


I know you’re joking, but I missed the 1st 100 some odd pages of this, but haven’t seen anybody mention the impact of COVID on Putin’s timing. Not the virus itself, but the extreme intra-national division to the reactions to governments’ mandates/executive orders/authoritarian power grabs the past 2 years. The BLM protests and the rising of groups to combat them. The West seems weak as its countries appear more divided than many of us remember. Specifically the United States. Surely this was part of Putin’s calculus.
