What’s interesting about all the Putin lovers on this site is they’ve tied their personal politics of vile hate to his win. And as he struggles and gets humiliated, so their own beliefs.

They’re finding it hard to come to terms with it. It takes them back to how they felt when Biden won. It’s an illogical connection.

The quote about how Russia's politicians have underestimated Ukranian hatred is choice. I was also interested with him enumerating the missile stock.

That’s like 2/3rds of global GDP.

As far as Russia is concerned, that is the international community that matters.

White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan confirmed Friday that he has tasked a special "Tiger Team" of experts to conduct contingency planning for the possibility that Russia uses chemical weapons in Ukraine or strikes NATO territory.

Why it matters: President Biden promised after a NATO summit in Brussels Thursday that the alliance "will respond" if Russia uses weapons of mass destruction, which officials fear has become increasingly likely as Ukraine's resistance continues to stall Russian advances.

Biden has ruled out sending U.S. troops into Ukraine, but Russia's claims that Western convoys delivering weapons to the Ukrainians are "legitimate targets" could test NATO's principle of collective defense, known as Article 5.

A Russian strike on a Ukrainian military site just 15 miles from the Polish border earlier this month also raised fears that the conflict could spill over into NATO territory.

I'm proud to say that I am openly supporting Russia at this moment in history.

Slava Rus!

He said we would respond "in kind". What exactly that means we don't really know, but neither does Joe.

Well, it really shouldn't be up for debate whether or not they would be legitimate targets.

Neoliberalism needs a huge setback and Russia taking Kyiv and becoming tighter with China ans India is the best way to achieve that.

Further, a failure by Biden and the West will harm the Democrats here in 2022 and 2024

That is certainly an opinion.

Saudi and UAE won't take Biden's calls


Please. I am no fan of Biden and would never vote for the guy, but KSA and UAE still clearly know who daddy is. They’re taking our calls.

China is not going to do anything to Russia and the sanctions are likely just going to encourage these countries to get away from the west because your sh-- can be seized at their whim


Oh yea, and I’m sure they’ll go diving into the arms of China instead, where the government can and does regularly seize private assets for no real reason, steals intellectual property, crushes internal dissent, doesn’t let their currency freely float, is even more corrupt than Russia, and so on and so on. Please, dude. Think this through.

quote:

The regime change approach doesn't seem to be working, though. And the BRICS guys were chilling in Moscow a few days ago.


India and China are the only countries that matter from that group. Russia, South Africa, and Brazil are weaklings in the grand scheme of things, and that won’t change in our lifetimes.

quote:

OK, it's a game of chicken right now to see if the west can destroy Russia's economy before Russia gets what they want in Ukraine -- I'll give you that.


And that’s a game we’ll win 1,000 times out of 1,000. I hope Russia wants to dance that political economic dance with us, because that’s a Louisiana 3A high school team going against the 2016 Warriors.

I don’t think neoliberalism means what you think it means.

Aside from that, why would it make any sense to solve what’s likely a minority in the grand scheme of the world as a total population and it cost Russo-Sino control of the world to achieve? Who wakes up in the morning and thinks “boy the Russians and Chinese really have governance and life right.”? Shouldn’t we just work to solve the “neoliberalism” ourselves and avoid the whole global authoritarian control thing in a Russo-Sino model?

Western Civilization is in its death throes. I’m hoping populists can coax an additional 35-100 good years years out of America (hopefully with the help of Hispanics voting increasingly Republican) before it all comes crashing down.

Europe is already doomed bc they do not have an influx of traditionally conservative Christians moving en masse to their countries like we do with Mexicans and Hispanics

You’re probably vax’d and don’t mind social credit scores. I’d consider our society dead once that happens or once you’re required to play along to have any kind of life.
