Not crazy but has really aged since then... |
I think it's more that when you're "alone" in the world, you're outnumbered? That's what happens on opinion posts, unless you're like Russia and have lots of private companies blogging for you? However, I have noticed the Russian-sponsored bloggers not as active lately? First, the situation is so fluid (ex. Kersh bridge) that Moscow is having trouble trying to spin it. On one hand they want to suppress any news about the extent of the damage so they don't freak out their troops in Ukraine. On the other hand Putin himself is shooting off his mouth blaming Ukraine - giving Ukraine the upper hand as being even more effective militarily (the original storyline was Russians were achieving victories all over the place, remember?). Second, this could be an indicator that there are big issues in the Kremlin. They way they probably work is they need official material approved by Moscow, but right now Moscow is in chaos. Arrests, power struggles - I'm sure everyone is afraid to put out any propaganda at all for fear of offending someone. |
If you’re a real, sincere American: You’ve been pulled in by the Russia propaganda effort. The current situation is dangerous, because Russia is trying to conquer the world. Putin’s Russia is a nihilistic, obnoxious country that isn’t even trying to do anything kind of decent anywhere in the world. If we the choice is between letting Putin continue on his current path and ending life on Earth as we know it, we end life on Earth as we know it. I hope and believe that plenty is going on behind the scenes and that there’s a pleasant third option. But, if the only options are really between oblivion and letting Putin continue to spread evil, hello oblivion. |

If Putin doesn't go nuclear, being called a "Russian" will probably be like being called a "Nazi" - at least for the next 50'ish years.
If Putin goes nuclear, then he will label being called a "Russian" as something of universal hatred and contempt forever on this planet. |

Russia has lots of the smaller nukes (I am not weapons expert, but I believe they are called tactical nukes). We no longer due in any meaningful quantity. This is based on several recent reports on podcasts and so forth. The apocalyptic situation is prob less of a concern than for those in Eastern Europe. But, obviously, if you're to be affected that is a big issue for you.
Putin would be a pariah, however. And it is my understanding that China has an agreement to defend Ukraine in this situation? Is that current information? It is not in his interest IF HE IS EVEN REMOTELY SANE (which he may not be). I don't see where any of this is Biden's game. So the OP is bizarre to me. |
No one is convinced. YOu seem to understand him quite well after his speeches and when he says things you all don't like. But at the same time, he's a demented old fool who can't string a sentence together? Which is it? |
Even if Putin used "tactical" nukes, the fallout would hit western Russia, not too far from Moscow. This would be the fastest way to topple Putin, IMO. |
NP. Hmm, what does this remind me of? Only the last 5+ years...

You are out of your mind. Countries rise and fall. There is one Earth. |
Tell that to the Russians. They are the ones threatening annihilation, despite losing badly to a significantly smaller country, if the world doesn't bow down before them. |
This is what I don't understand. I mean, Putin can't change the earth's rotation and prevailing winds. |
