I’m not laughing because he’s dead, which I’m fine with, I’m laughing because he got on a plane.

Thats like The Highest window you can fall out of, and there he went.

I think it’s really badly done propaganda. Ukraine is losing.

What evidence is that? Ukraine is occupied, it’s hard to say your winning when your coast line is occupied and the occupier17.5% of your territory and ain’t budging.
The phony retreat, that was actually a signed deal to de-escalate and Russia’s honoring it by getting away from Kiev, while Ukraine under pressure from the US reneged, is not the much beloved retreat everybody thought it was.

It’s always, always a bad idea to under estimate your opponent. Sure, it wasn’t the cake walk Russia thought it would be, but that does not mean they are losing. They probably didn’t expect any real resistance at all. After all, they waltzed right in to Crimea and never fired a shot. Nobody gave a damn. The US did nothing. Ukraine did nothing. So, with that precedent, sure, they probably expected little resistance.

All of this, in the end is actually irrelevant. There is a very high probability that Ukraine neither loses or wins, because this war is ripe for escalation. All markers are pointing towards escalation. Every metric that can be analyzed points to escalation. It’s happened before…
So, who won the Serbia v. Austria Hungry war? England, France, Italy, the US and Japan.

All the markers that started the Great War are glinting brightly as gigantic red flags. But the idiots in power are so dumb, they can’t get past all the money they are making to see that they are creating a world in which there will be nothing to spend it on, if cooler heads do not prevail.

Why no attempts at a peace settlement are even being tried, I don’t know. I have never see the US get into an engagement where they give the enemy no off-ramp at all. Especially a proxy war. Afghanistan had a chance to turn over Al Qaeda to keep the peace. Iraq had the opportunity to allow the inspectors in, to prove they had no WMD’s. Russia? Regime change or else. That’s not going to happen.
We’re all going to be in this war before long. It’s not going to take much the make this situation much hotter.

Big political schemes feature a peculiar, biological way of growth and acceleration. ā€œToo big to failā€ is a well known chiffre for ā€œwe’re determined to make some money with our investmentā€.

At some point, the Ukrainians will revolt. They killed their sons for a few acres of dirt. And nothing came out of it.
Their new elite is certainly cashing in, just like the Washington elite (both are related- it’s nothing, just go back to sleep). But the nailbiting is slowly setting in. Winning was supposed to be fun and profitable. It’s slowly becoming urgent.

If Russia or China took over a chunk of the U.S (or whatever country you are from), would you just say ā€œoh wellā€? Or would you fight until the fuckers were gone?

He would bend over.

You seem a bit more confused than usual.

Russia and Ukraine dictate the terms of this conflict, not us.

And Russia made their intentions very clear when they waged war on the population, bombing hospitals and using heavy artillery on population centers. Raping and murdering women and non combatants.

What don’t you get about that?

That’s hopefully not a serious question. While not hollowed ground per se, the US is no buffer state wedged between empires.
Context matters.
In the case of Ukraine, yes, certainly, they should have ā€œbent overā€. Servicing an abusive husband (Russia) is better than being killed by a mentally ill person (that’s us).

England?

What an insult to the Scots, Ulster Scots and Welsh who fought under the flag of the United Kingdom

Drones for the win!

Any good insights on whats going on there, buddy?

Seems yall got your panties in a bunch over the phony narratives your swallowing about Ukraine. I don’t care to write a dissertation about it, the information is out there freely for anybody to look up. The MSM certainly will not report this, but ask yourself why is the USA spending more on this war, than Russia is? If Ukraine is winning, how is it that they are 11% occupied. Countries who are occupied are not winning, unless they are rapidly becoming unoccupied. Funnily enough, the occupied regions are the access to the black sea the Russians desperately wanted.

I think it’s hilarious you all think Ukraine is winning. It’s such a dumb narrative, it’s hard to believe people believe it.
I can present 50 links and distill all the facts, but what do I get out of it, other than wasted time? You won’t change your mind.
Go ahead and live in your fantasy world where there are infinite genders and ukraine is winning and joe biden is a strong president and the economy is fantastic. Don’t mean shit to me. You’re world’s will come crashing down soon enough.

Ah, see? There’s where you went wrong.

You subjugated your own ability to think (limited as it was) with a political position. Thats intellectually lazy and combines a bunch of separate issues into one big lump so that your caveman brain can point at it and go ā€œOooh. Bad! Mee! Good!ā€. And not spend another iota of energy thinking.

Congrats. You’ve sacrificed your frontal lobe on the altar of weaponized stupidity.

It’s too bad it doesn’t work, though. One would be able to avoid many problems with the pat system.

For example, Arnold could have said: ā€˜ā€˜Yes, Maria, sure, you go ahead and live in your fantasy world where I fucked the maid and there are infinite genders and ukraine is winning and joe biden is a strong president and the economy is fantastic.’’
