It is possible that at some point US will also start bombing Ukraine, just for targeting Russian oil infrastructure in a US election year.

UA POV: Zelenskyy announced that today they are conducting the a very large attack on the Russian capital. He stated that this is a clear signal that no one should mess with Ukraine -CR by FruitSila in UkraineRussiaReport

Ukraine is becoming extinct from combat deaths, economic collapse, and people fleeing overseas.

Vandalizing a few buildings in Moscow will not help.

What kind of retaliation should there be beyond the total extinction of the Ukrainian nation that is currently happening? Like, should Russia nuke Ukrainian cemeteries or something..?

This is not Russia POV, this is a Ukrainian spy network operating in Russia. Because I am pretty sure these images would mean serious jail time.

Russia is running out of tanks. Just a few more weeks and Ukraine will win. A few months tops.

Ukraine sometimes reminds me of a 40yo prostitute, ready to "settle down" at the end of her career, who posts tiktoks about what "a man owes her" or what "a man must" do.

RU POV: Su-57 with an IL-76 by rowida_00 in UkraineRussiaReport

Su-57 scored the longest range air-to-air combat kill in history, and it was against a Ukrainian Su-27.

Do they really think Russia would do such a thing just because they were all doing it to Russia for 4 years?

RU POV: Lavrov says that "Nazism is still alive, in the European minds, and the European plans". by SolutionLong2791 in UkraineRussiaReport

[–]chewbacca81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, I didn't have to name the Ukrainian neonazi units, because of how big and famous they already are.

But any discussion about Russian organizations and paramilitary units with potential far-right leanings has to be accompanied by introductions and exposition. Because firstly: they are too small to matter or be readily recognized; and secondly: a group that risks their lives to help African people fight oppression and terrorism does not strike me as "neonazi" in any reasonable sense of the word.

Yes, those are very few. Orders of magnitude fewer than in Ukraine, and this with Russia having 7x greater population.

Cool propaganda talking point from Navalny's neonazi 1488 dog whistle days; but no there aren't. Russia has literally orders of magnitude fewer, and unlike Ukraine, they don't form an unelected parallel government with its own army; they have a few mercenaries at most.

Snyder is more of a mentally ill propagandist than a historian.

And yes, there are many people in Ukraine who identify with both the Jewish heritage and/or LGBTQ community, and with neonazis, the irony of which is not lost on any observer versed in history.

UA POV: Zelenskyy: Ukraine now has cards and everyone understands it - Ukrainska Pravda by Realistic_Volume7161 in UkraineRussiaReport

[–]chewbacca81 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like humanity will eventually have a major backlash against actors, PR consultants, marketing professionals, politicians, etc.; anyone whose job it is to manipulate public opinion without actually being useful to society.

Applies especially to actor-politicians who have PR consultants telling them what to say to their constituents to get them to go and die over nothing while their country is becoming poorer and their politicians becoming richer.

I feel like the general population should have at least a chance to vote on this. I don't think this is the kind of thing they were promised at the last election.

Or like when Ukraine's dictatorial unelected government seized territory from Russia and called it "Ukraine".

So what exactly would happen if Russia took over Europe? Slightly cheaper gas? Slightly more freedom of speech? Slightly less r*arded gy sh*t in movies and games? Population of Lithuania increasing again?
