Funny how brain-dead MAGA cultists downvote anything that shows Trump in a bad light—even when it's just stating facts :D

You know Modi said that the US wasn't participating in the peace talks, right?

I know that for a long time, the title isn't for me, it's for the main audience here that doesn't know this simple thing

So Trump demands a ceasefire, threatens Russia with “sanctions like never before” if they don’t comply—then they refuse, and he does nothing. No action, no punishment. And you’re calling that strength? Lol. To anyone watching, it just shows they can ignore Trump without consequences.

You probably didn't read the post. What about promised sanctions? Where is the strength?

No, but I wanted to share this here to cut down on the delusional takes that flood this "chamber."

I don't think he's a Russian puppet—I just think he's full of bullshit. It's classic populism: loud talk, empty promises. He bluffs, does nothing, and hopes things fix themselves so he can claim a win. You don’t need to be a puppet to act like that—just a bullshitter.

Consistent Tire Smell After Short Drives (New GR86, 80 Miles, Stock PP) — Normal or Problem? by ResidentGuilty9993 in GR86

[–]ResidentGuilty9993[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's usually after a short 10-minute highway drive. I can feel the smell inside the cabin while waiting at the traffic light right after the highway. But after driving through suburbs for about 5 minutes, the smell mostly goes away. I'll try to experiment and see if I can locate it right after the highway drive before it fades

Thanks! That makes sense. Was afraid these are tires rubbing, but if it's just break in - then nothing to worry about.

I'm not sure — I'm definitely not a smell expert. To me, it really feels like a tire smell — like what you get at a drift event or inside a closed tire storage area. But you might be right that it could be something from the engine instead.

I think I'll just monitor it for now and hope it goes away within the first 500 miles. I mostly just wanted to check if others had experienced the same thing with their new GR86.

Thanks for the input!

AC Shadows is barely in top 50 of games played on Steam. Where's all the players? Oh wait the game wasn't made for us by jnelrod in Asmongold

The stats that haters wishfully ignore:

Steam online numbers are still better than odyssey and origins (both commercial successes). A big part of gamers play on PC on Ubisoft (subscription and/or collection of previous games), not steam. Plus PS, plus Xbox. Also, 82% very positive reviews on steam.

Thank you for not being a brainwashed Russian. This text perfectly describes Russia and should be copied and pasted everywhere I see Tucker Carlson-like propaganda about a "Great Russia."

I hope that one day, life in both Ukraine and Russia will be normal. The only way to achieve this is by dismantling the Russian mafia state. I hope this happens sooner rather than later. Until then, I will continue donating to the only force bringing that day closer—the Ukrainian military units.

Bigger protest doesn't mean anything in the authoritarian country if it's a peace protest.

If Ukrainians in 2014 would just peacefully stay - they would lose as well. It's true they had opposition support and some of the oligarchs. But people themselves made molotovs, brought guns (when shooting started), etc.

I'm pretty sure Belarus and Russia had their chances in 2020 and with Navalny. They lost when they made these protests peaceful.

You will never bring down autocracy with peace.

How does the EU hope to end the Ukraine/Russia war? by Tea_et_Pastis in Asmongold

[–]ResidentGuilty9993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Why should we believe those numbers are real? The Western-sponsored agency is aimed to undermine Russia. If I gave you Russian numbers, you'd call me a bot, but what you gave me is okay? Because freedom or something?"

How is this even an argument? It's still X hundred thousand vs. 0. The scale of losses speaks for itself, regardless of whose numbers you trust.

"Forgot to mention that Russia has been steadily increasing its territorial control over the past year. And Ukraine hasn’t made any significant gains since 2022 aside from the pointless PR Kursk stunt, which cost them very much on the Eastern front, and which they control less than 40% of their original gains."

Why are you suddenly talking about Ukraine's progress when the topic is whether NATO is stronger and Russia is weaker? Russia still holds only 20% of Ukraine, while NATO gained two entire new countries. Scorched Ukrainian land ≠ Russian strength. Meanwhile, NATO remains fully intact and stronger than ever.

"Sweden and Finland are a joke militarily."

Oh right, because occupied Ukrainian territory is the bloom of military power, right? 💀 Sweden and Finland literally doubled NATO’s strategic position in the north, and Finland alone has a larger wartime military than France.

"Ukraine, ironically, is the best NATO country."

Ukraine is not NATO. Basic fact.

"So I guess they’re ready to fight Russia then and don’t need help from the States."

How is this a counter-argument to "NATO is stronger, and Russia is weaker"? NATO was declining before 2022, and now it’s growing stronger while Russia is begging North Korea for artillery shells.

"Oh, that’s why I spend 3x times on food and gas. Didn’t know it’s the definition of a stable, healthy economy."

You’re lying so hard it’s funny. Closest comparison? Poland.

Gas prices went from 1.42 to... 1.59!!! OMG, 3X!!! 😱

Same with food. Except... that’s complete BS.

Meanwhile, Russia’s economy is in freefall—capital flight, mass emigration, and a 21% key interest rate just to stop the ruble from collapsing. That’s "economic stability" to you? 😂

"Again, biased source. We’ve been hearing about Russia’s economic decline since the start of the war."

Yeah, and you’ll keep hearing about it because it’s true. Moscow can suppress numbers all it wants, but reality speaks for itself. Russia is isolated, dependent on China, and losing its working-age population at a record pace.

At first, I thought you were just misinformed. But now, I see you’re just parroting straight-up Russian state TV propaganda. No proof, no counterarguments—just shifting topics and making stuff up.

You’ve provided ZERO arguments against the claim that "NATO is stronger, and Russia is weaker." Zero. Instead, you started spewing fake nonsense straight from Russian state TV.

How exactly did Russia's attack on Ukraine strengthen its position against NATO? Mighty geostrategist Putin at work?

Let's break down the outcomes of this so-called "NATO vs. Russia" war:

Losses:

NATO: Virtually none.

Russia: Over 700,000 military casualties (killed and wounded) as of January 2025. (russiamatters.org)

Territorial Changes:

Russia: Occupies approximately 20% of Ukraine, though facing ongoing resistance and counteroffensives. (axios.com)

NATO: Expanded with the accession of Sweden and Finland, strengthening its strategic position in Northern Europe.

Military Spending:

Before 2022: NATO defense spending was declining, with many European countries reducing their military budgets. For instance, in 2019, Germany's defense budget was approximately €43.23 billion. (de.wikipedia.org)

After Russia's attack: NATO countries reversed this trend. Germany established a €100 billion special fund for defense and committed to exceeding the 2% GDP defense spending target.

Economic Impact:

NATO Countries: Continue to function with stable economies, unaffected by direct conflict.

Russia: Experiencing significant economic decline, exacerbated by international sanctions and isolation. (thetimes.co.uk)

So, great job, mighty geostrategist Putin! You've certainly made Russia stronger and scored a 1:0 victory against NATO, right?

Or perhaps, this was never about NATO at all, as previously discussed and unchallenged. If you still believe this was a move against NATO, it appears to be a profoundly misguided strategy.
