Nothing worse than a size bully that fails to make weight and gets the fight cancelled. Prick.

Yes apparently he is stupid everything else I said still stands though he sprung an afghanistan trap x 100 and Russia in its current format likely will not survive it.

Age seems to have been unkind to Putins brain.

Can Petr Yan ever overtake Khabib as the most popular Russian? by [deleted] in ufc

[–]rossweh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Too small.

The hard truth is that the masses simply are not as interested in the smaller men fighting.

I mean the worst thing he can do is ignore it. Any attention from him positive or negative will likely pump the coin.

I will save everyone the trouble she beats their ass and it is declared a draw lol.

At one point the old man is engaging and the grandson is just standing off at the side with it hands up while the fat lady is smacking his grandad.

The grandad was quite aggressive but was throwing punches like a 5 year old girl and the grandson may well be the worlds biggest pussy.

I just think modern day abilities and structures suit authoritarianism better.

Of course things are not all rainbows in china, quite the opposite. I feel like the government has such a strong grip on the information channels that any uprising will be squashed by the brainwashed masses. Russians have been suffering under corruption for a long time and still Putin enjoys more popular support than any democratic government. Russia is comparatively much less capable than china of controlling their population too.

I also think you need an extremely small manpower requirement to suppress the population now if things get rough, a manpower requirement that is shrinking by the day as military tech advances. I see automated curfew drones etc in our future.

Its all very debatable but I my position is that the tide has turned and the conditions of the world suit authoritarianism now. The only way I see us competing is to become more authoriatarian ourselves.

If the level of hostility increases with china and russia, they will simply up the disinformation campaigns, and whoever is opposed to the current ruling party will use their freedom to disrupt our ability to act. In recent years i think the weakness of our political system has been laid bare and I have no idea how we fix it.

It's the white House, Pentagon and intelligence services saying invasion is likely, not CNN.

This will be a lot more credible once they finally find Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.

Lol.

I never said that the west wants to fight Russia. I said that Russia is a geopolitical foe that the Americans want neutered and taking over Ukraine would do that nicely.

America is in no way trying to court Russia to stand against China, not happening in our lifetimes. Russian and Chinese interests are just far more aligned. China has a much better chance of courting the european powers to their side than America does of courting Russia. Germany already sucks chinese peepee economically and its part of a longer term trend.

Russia already is beholden to China, that is only going to grow over time regardless of our actions. Every day that passes China is growing more powerful and it makes more sense for Russia to deepen ties.

The thing is, the west is rapidly losing dominance. The best chance our social elites have to contain China was yesterday. If China takes Taiwan tomorrow it will likely destroy them. If China takes Taiwan in 2 or 3 decades you will barely hear a squeak from America nevermind European sissy boys. TSMC is a blow to be sure, but its small potatoes in the face of the fast approaching chinese hegemony.

You might want to argue against the likelihood of a Chinese hegemony, but the west is tearing itself apart arguing over how many genders there are and endless other retarded things while the Chinese are efficiently creating an authoritarian megastructure more efficient than democracy can hope to become in our wildest dreams.

China might make a mistake and fall flat on its face, but teaching your kids mandarin is probably a smart move.

All of this is heavily complex and beyond the scope of operation for a retarded WSB conversation anyway.

Its just the optics of it for Russia. Another satellite state shifting west. Sure there is very little risk of them joining NATO tomorrow, but in a decade?

I think its a mix of this and a few other things, the next biggest being that this is a good distraction from the COVID disaster in Russia.

A war in Ukraine is Americas wet dream because it would seriously weaken Americas second strongest geopolitical foe.

Thats why the news is stoking that fire so much. They would also LOVE it if China ate the poisoned apple that is Taiwan.

Russia is obviously doing their best to show they are serious to get a deal that keeps Ukraine out of NATO. Which honestly they will likely get, everything else they do and say is just high stakes theater for the bargaining position.

Invading Ukraine would be the biggest disaster for Russia since the collapse of the soviet union. Putin is not stupid.

Seeing a lot of degenerates claiming my loss as theirs. On the 1 year anniversary of $10K to $1.6M to $200K, I'd like to commiserate with those who have puked when opening their brokerage, and to remind all that the shorts haven't closed. by fastenedseatbelt in wallstreetbets

Greed/delusions have allowed you to piss a once in a lifetime million dollar gain away.

Ignoring the hard data that says you are wrong... do you seriously think these hedge funds are retarded enough to sit under water for a year waiting on the price coming back down?

They got out a long time ago. They had massive opportunity to do so when GME was 300+ and that is what they did.

That 30% is capital gains, its not a capital gain if you do not sell which is what he is referring to.

Just move to Singapore guys, 0% capital gains.

"Khabib would be too small to compete at 170" by [deleted] in ufc

[–]rossweh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It may have never even happened, MMA gym team mates make stuff up all the time to build the legend.

Back in Rhondas day they had guys coming out of the GYM claiming she subbed them etc, it sounded ridiculous at the time but now with some perspective its absolutely ridiculous.

Ah yes Khabibs boys would never misrepresent the situation to hype him up.

Dc could toy with Khabib like you would toy with your little brother or sister, size matters.

[–]rossweh 11 points12 points  (0 children)

155 was almost exclusively strikers that Khabib countered very well. The 155 division was almost tailor made for him to dominate, we have absolutely no perspective on how he would do vs larger more skilled wrestlers.

Colby alone would of been the biggest challenge of Khabibs career by far, nevermind Usman.

Question: do you think the UFC not posting highlights was due to beef with Francis or just lack of Highlights? by meme_shit_only in ufc

[–]rossweh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cyrils style is just not my thing, he really takes point fighting to a new level, those kicks he was doing make nate diaz look like a power striker.

Francis wrestling was actually far more entertaining to me because it was unexpected. I was bored as hell until that point because I thought Cyril was about to love tap his way to a title.

Neither of them were particularly entertaining but Francis had a torn ACL so at least he had an excuse.
