Actual facts for one.

Truth for another.

What you are not missing is IGNORANCE. You got a lot of that going on!

In this discussion, I don't think I've ever had to correct something as stupid as someone saying NATO "stole" land.

I have thought the same thing. This is the only common ground I think Trump shares with Putin.

The WEF and their Marxist allies stole the election in Brasil from Bolsonaro and I am sure they tried to defeat Milei with the same shenanigans.
The recent record of the left in our country paints them as the real force for authoritarianism. And the left is proving they will go as far as assassination to achieve their goal!

Not according to the Russian constitution. If the Russian president dies in office, the Prime Minister becomes president.

The current Russian Prime Minister is Mikhail Mishustin.

Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev is deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia.

He’s 1/1000th the personality of Putin. He was a puppet for term limits that have since been removed.

I’d be shocked if he returned to power.

What about made up "facts" like NATO "Stealing" land?


History of NATO expansion map



I don't agree with the "steal" portion, but the NATO acquiring more countries is fact, and the encroachment despite agreements with Russia is also true.

Russia sucks, but we haven't sent Russia eleventy-billion dollars to fund the brutal deaths of people we don't know. Floating NATO membership for Ukraine started this war. Politicians who are wholly owned and operated by kickbacks from Ukraine and the MIC, who don't give a shite about the lives of the poor bastards they are sending to their deaths started this war. What you are apparently missing is the truth about what went down. Putin is a ruthless SOB, but he's doing exactly what he said he would do, when our idiot politicians, along with Europe's idiot politicians, started talking about accepting Ukraine into NATO. It was, and has always been a trigger for war, bloodshed, and lost lives, and everyone involved knew that. But we went ahead and pulled that trigger.

In the end, you're missing the fact that nobody gives a shite about Russia, and only wish they could both lose. You're missing it because you want to equate being pro Russia with not being willing to fund this war that means less than nothing to tax paying Americans.

That's right


The world is constantly reinventing itself.

But why does that all-of-a-sudden give Russia the right to invade their neighbor?

I don't see a scenario where NATO ever invades a hypothetically docile Russia for no reason.

How dare sovereign nations not allow Moscow control over their foreign policy.

Ukraine was and probably still is laundering money for crooked politicians in this country. Additionally, they were/ are the site of illegal bioweapons labs.

So, frick Ukraine!

This is backwards

NATO isn't this USSR-like body "acquiring" countries

Countries voluntarily ask to join other countries

and the encroachment despite agreements with Russia

Another game fact

No such agreement exists

And any discussion used to dishonestly warp into this purported "agreement" wasn't with Russia.

There isn’t a reason for NATO to ever invade Russia. If Moscow didn’t want the central and Eastern European states to run west at the first possible opportunity, they probably shouldn’t have spent the last few centuries continuously attempting to subjugate them.
