I never said I would want to live in a communist country. I would point out that our own “land of the free” resembles a communist country more and more everyday though. Look what they did with Covid. How much of your income do you have to give to the government? How many people now have a “living wage” supplied by the people who work. None of that resembles our Bill of Rights.

I did say I admire Putin more for his leadership abilities over Biden. Biden is a fumbling idiot.

Major platforms of social media have been shut down.


Twitter. Facebook. You think that is free speech? Say the wrong thing and see how fast you are banned. These are private companies but are intertwined with the government.

How many times has our media came back after the fact and said they were wrong about a story? The Russians did not help Trump get elected. Biden’s laptop was some evil scheme by the Russians.

Have you ever noticed how we always must have an enemy. Why is that? Russians. Terrorists. Global Warming. Covid. Back to Russians. Our media always seems to show up right on cue with our government. It’s called propaganda. Both sides use it. I just try to use a little common sense to figure out what is really going on.

I do not think it is out of the realm of possibility that Russia and China together could have come up with a hypersonic missile. They probably also did it with a fraction of the +700 billion dollars we allocated for defense last year.

Remember. We were promoting transsexuals in our military while kicking out trained personnel who didn’t get a shot last year. We are slipping as a country and it would make sense that the military will slide as well.

Then u tell me...why did Putin shut down these social media platforms? Why did he shut down independent news sites and channels in the past few weeks? Why are protestors being arrested for speaking their minds?I'm not relying on the media for this information. I have to spoken to everyday folks that live in Russia.

I can certainly speak my opinion more freely on those platforms than the Russian people currently can on the streets of Moscow.

You speak to people living in Russia currently?

Sounds like they really have the country on lockdown.

How do you know anything without personally witnessing it? Is that where you are going? I trust the people I've communicated with and while I'm sure you will dismiss it I trust the videos I've seen of people getting arrested and trust the words that have been stated by the Kremlin.

Most wont speak publicly or on camera but some will speak privately. Ham radio is a great way to talk to older folks there

Russia isn't on lockdown. I still have WebEx meetings twice a week with our logistics and sales teams in Moscow.

This is true and will lead us to mediocracy in the near future.

Keep watching the news and try to not use any common sense. Russia is far superior to Ukraine. Time will prove me to be correct.


How much more time we talking? Its been 9 months and you’re still wrong.

Here's my guess at reality

I wonder how terminal guidance works against a moving target - such as a carrier at 30knots

Does it slow down - potentially making it vulnerable?

Hypersonic is greater than Mach - so how fast is it really going and for how much of it's flight profile?

Some interesting modeling going on...

150 feet is a lot of earth and what ever other materials are present for a single missile to travel and deliver full destructive capability.


And - to penetrate that far it would have to strike perpendicular to the surface. Which means high arc, straight down.

Unless it’s in the side of a mountain I guess.
