There are some good experts along combat and arms knowledge here in hide but man some of you are so easily distracted.
What you do not understand is that Russian war is 33% infiltration, 33% misinformation and 33% actual war, in which they do not necessarily suck in Russian mindset, but the Western world keeps the death count relevant. Russia does not, just to the point that they want to make it seem lower because it hurts their ego in our eyes. In reality they do not care a rats ass if their soldiers die, as long as they get what they want.
1. Culture war. Putin says he dislikes woke movement and large part of you cheers. Like he freaking cared a one bit. He is just buying your admiration and he gets it cheap, like giving a retarded child a candy, hardest part is to make sure he grabs it.
What do you think is Putins stance on 1A? 2A? Is there a freaking amendment he supports? Maybe someone can answer that.
2. What we find in Ukraine. Same story. Their intelligence has found that you are fond of news about bio labs and boy did they hit the bullseye. Just add the word "pathogen" and you are ready to join Russia to destroy Ukr... oh wait, Russia has developed mass bioweapons too?? And supported Assads use of it? To whom do you want to be mad at?
The case is, there really is no proof that it was even to be used, even if there could have been bioweapon designing. Bioweapons are pretty much the quite bad for war because it probably will attack you too. They use your distrust against your own goverment against YOU. They are too clever for you but they have done this for hundreds of years.
3. Ukrainian nazis. To this as a Finnish I can tell about a somewhat bizarre cultural "twist" that may not be apparent is that
Nazi germany never left those places where they helped eradicate communism. There are many flavors of nazism but mainly it is nazi sympathism just because they were and still still are the (aggressive) counter-culture to communists. Nazi and german style mannerism remain in use here in Finland, IN A VERY WEIRD WAY, partly because Germany has always had our back and even our military is quite much affected by Prussians. One can only say that the Nazi party plans and mannerisms have almost nothing to do with each other than that they both stand against communism. As a good analogy, we tend German soldiers graves over here as we are greatful for having them along our side to defeat as many communists as possible.
4. Russia. Most do not seem to have the real concept of what Russia is about.
Explaining it deeply is difficult and I cannot fully understand it myself but to simplify:
It has been an autocracy and kleptocracy since 1200th century. In its NORMAL mode it is simultaneously in war, having problems with elections, poverty and wide range of sub-problems that rise from these circumstances, like organized crime. Let me repeat: that is the normal mode.
In Russia, lying is just telling tactical truths and they are not uncomfortable with it. But they are a bit amazed at how naive you are and are just getting started after noticing it.
Communism in Russia is in a state called:
"We do not need it, the people are already poor and sheeplike, we own all assets, media, infrastructure and institutions." Only now, once they are getting screwed after sanctions start to kick in, they are nationalizing companies and property there by force. So please save your "Russia is not communist" crap elsewhere.
5. Ukraine. It never was a great country as in wealth. But people had some prosperosity. Food to eat, life to live. Freedom, not like what you would call it but for sub soviet state, pretty nice freedoms!
And things were slowly going to the better, at least in the long run. Until..
6. Hypocracy. Some of you commented things like why should I help them when they gave our politicians truckloads of money? I find this absolutely hilarious. So because some of your dirty politicians and their sons managed to steal millions of Ukrainians tax money through their corrupt system, Ukrainians should just eat lead and accept Russian leadership and even worse corruption?
Damn drugs do bad for brains.
way out to left field. Is this you reaching back to the argument that Putin is justified ...like three pages back....
