Why don't we keep the political board crap over there and keep up with the war here?

There will be several threads started within the hour on the OT from a few guys you can ask that very question to. But when/if you do, are you prepared for the whiplash?

Can anyone explain like I’m 5 - Why does the poli board think that Putin is some sort of noble crusader and Zelensky is the antichrist?


If we are to distill this to its essence, a lot of American white supremacists see Putin’s Russia as their beacon on a hill. Maybe that’s not everyone with Putin love but it’s a lot of them. This goes beyond the Poliboard.

Someone tell me I’m wrong.

You mean you're having difficulty understanding why the group that fully supported the folks that tried to stage the only coup de ta in the history of our country are pulling for Russian?

I’ve got an idea: let’s stop discussing the PT board and focus only on the war…..resist the bait. Steady as she goes.

Most people complaining about globalism have no idea what it means. In many of their eyes they see it as (((globalism))).

Globalism is dead after this. The idea of lets all trade together and we will love each other instead of fight each other is over. We are back to a two polar world and Cold War 2.0.

There is no better stump speech than to kill the idea of wanton consumerism and get back to basics. Politics aside, we've lost our way with the way we import trinkets all in the name of economy, jobs etc. I would much prefer folks work in our own factories than Pier One, Office Depot and Family Dollar.

Quick update, empty Soviet era shelves are back in fashion this spring and it’s already started! Also Putins had a few nasty surprises trying to access his cash/crypto accounts turns out America still knows a thing or two about a thing or two. Also land bridge to Crimea is his big ask. Belarus is still held together by binder twine and wishes. Also post war no NATO but a protectorate of about 3-4 countries

If you think that I am cheering Putin on in this you are an idiot. Putin is a war criminaling KGB thug.

Reestablishing the production of our supply chain in this country is a matter of national security. Hopefully everyone realizes that now.

Ironically, these “patriots” want nothing less than to destroy what they claim to cherish, the West. It’s a black/white, good/evil dichotomy. Grey doesn’t exist. The culture war has no endgame and will thus be waged forever.
