re: Pretty terrifying quote from the New York Times

Krugman has never been right about anything

quote:

I'll pull for Russia...

quote:

Ukraine is corrupt Biden benefits from this corruption I'll pull for Russia..

They are all corrupt. I’m not pulling for any of them.

Im so sick of this false premise. You can oppose Putin, but also oppose the US spend g more on Ukraine’s border than our own.

---

So you can "oppose Putin" and also oppose any resistance to Putin?

At the very least you are enabling Putin. But in reality, you are directly helping Putin's Russia in its well-announced plan to invade and conquer other European sovereign nations.

And if they do "admire" Putin, does that really matter? Last time i checked we were still in the free United States of America.

Of course, but it's just the optics of those purporting to be right of center taking up the mantle for a greedy, pocket-stuffing Bolshevik.

An admiration society that was original with the Left for Bolshevik Russian leaders from Krushchev to Gorbachev - when it really got scandalous.

Although we see some lessening of this embarrassment now at this late date for Putin on here.

But that wasn't how it was in the early days of the invasion. The admiration was not far removed from fawning and gushing. Remember when he was supposed to save us all from those wicked globalists.

A mention of bombing? Putin must've borrowed a page from the Weathermen since he spread fear among his own people by bombing them for a political agenda which was to have a reason for resuming the attacks on Chechnya.

Russian people actually caught his FSB in the act.

The official Bolshevik explanation to them? "It was a training exercise." An explanation under the Hammer and Sickle the Russian people had no alternative but to accept. But it catapulted Putin into power.

Although some have tried, there's no rational way to soft peddle and assign any degree of positive, redeeming value to a Bolshevik devotee of Lenin.

A very nearly unexplainable view of someone who very likely experiences alternating episodes of black depression and delusions of grandeur, particularly if he actually fantasizes in his own mind that the Baltics, Hungary, Romania, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia - even the unstable Bulgaria - are all in for, and just can't wait to spend another 70-plus years under a newer, revised version of the Bolshevik Hammer and Sickle.

It's not without supporting facts to accuse him of wanting to be remembered as the Russian leader who at least began the process for recovering those lost Soviets.

In his writings, the only publicly admitted disagreement with his hero Lenin is what Lenin gave up at Brest-Litovsk, which Putin believes laid the groundwork for the later collapse of Bolshevik rule in the "republics" following the wall coming down in East Germany.

Is it at all possible to want the Ukraine to survive this incursion, without being for the multiple billions Biden has sent there, which objectively now looks like hush, appeasement money. But it's all posturing on his part, with our money.

Wouldn't be surprised if Biden secretly hopes that Russia wipes the Ukraine off the face of the earth, since it's where many of his and Hunter's bodies are buried.

When Biden was asked for fighter jets from Poland which might've stalled the invasion early on, some on here whined and fretted about it escalating to WWIII.

Over a year later, even without the jets, the paranoia over WWIII persists.

The Left's false admiration of the Bolshevik leaders ended in 2015.

So Putin was short changed and didn't get the sustained admiration as did the other Russian leaders.

But that dubious mantle has been taken up by many who purport to be right of center.

It gets "curiouser and curiouser."

But nothing like unrequited love - an ideal during the Middle Ages - to spice up modern Realpolitik.

BTW, let's all keep in mind just how corrupt, despicable, and dissolute is the Ukraine while we're watching this series of court proceedings about to take place now in New York and Georgia and understanding the reason behind them.

In the US, the biggest enemy of democracy is the press and the media; who are becoming cheerleaders for the Democrats and their government.

So the success of Russia's invasion plan is a republican issue now?

Well, at least you can stop all this lying about whether republican support Russia over everything else.

This doesn’t compute.

Russia’s invasion plan failed. It had nothing to do with the Dems or Reps.

Who is lying? You seem confused. All I posted is the media has lost their objectivity. Their war coverage is the least of their problems.

So.....at this point is the Democrat's official policy "if you don't agree with us you are a threat to our oligarchy"?

That’s what they really mean.

Another thing, if The NY Times were honest, they could see just as many online lefties who want Putin to win because of residual love for the Soviet Union, and antipathy to NATO. But they won’t report on them, because The NY Times knows they would embarrass liberals and also that they don’t have any power, but let one of these little internet Nazis go off on how based Putin is, and The NY Times treats it like they are about to win the Republican nomination
