You are back with this sh*+ again?

So you still haven’t realized you are displaying the utter breadth of your own ignorance whenever you broach this topic?

Russia at peace had an economy the size of Italy
Now it’s cratered much lower

Russia bought into a walking thief and liar and are now paying a terrified price
Trumpers are following that path to nowhere
A million young Russian men have died or left the country the last three years

Because they are communist. They've mis-aligned the incentives of the economy with human nature. It will never work.

Funny you had to go back 150 years to find a Russian that wasn’t white trash.

So they want to be just like Russia then. Russia is slam packed full of Muzzies and the crazy ones too. Putin wouldn’t have so much power if it weren’t for his close relationships with the crazy Muzzies.


Yeah this so far from being correct I would say delete your account.

It seems I have upset a lot of Russians on this board tonight. They’re don’t like me talking bad about their country. If only they could be proud and free Americans like me.

Texas has a bigger economy than Russia. Yet we are supposed to believe Russia is hellbent on conquering Europe? It is a neocon fantasy.

The country using washing machine parts to fight and can't beat Ukraine is also the country about to march on Paris.

If that was actually true, then why is a little old Russia, winning in a war with not just Italy, but the entire wealth and riches of NATO

Why is a country with GDP of Italy outproducing all of us combined?

How is that possible?

Their GDP ranking of Russia has went from #4 in 1992 to #11 in 2022....
144 million people and they are failing as a nation.

Bruh you need to read a history book

I have. That's why i made the above comments.

Russia was a backwater in Imperial Europe. They weren't seen as equals and often lesser royals were sent there for marriage.

Again, there is a reason Russian literature and film is so dour and bleak and filled with existential dread. It's not because Russia is known for being a great place to live

Putin's threat of using nukes.

NATO isn't fully participating. If they were, this wouldn't be close. They would have owned the sea and sky within a week and Russia would have been fricked.

Russia is doing what Russia always does: throw men at the military objective. They have a lot of meatsuits to use.
