War in Ukraine

[landscapingvol]

And this is the USSR/Soviets we are talking about today.

Umm no all the points I made are about Russia not the Soviet Union. I purposely left it out because it’s too obvious

Accepting of differences? That's one of your funniest posts ever

I find the fact you find it funny funny.

That is disputed by many. They didn't allow an independent investigation of the crash site. From what I remember, the information that the State Department gave us came from Jen Psaki or Maria Harf at the time. Not exactly the most honest people to have relaying messages.

Coming from a mindless supporter of the party of accept or get cancelled

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

lol......By open I mean accepting of differences. Nothing wrong with a mask mandate during a global pandemic full of unknowns.

GTFOHYM

That isn't even close to true. You guys call any information that goes against your narrative misinformation and have your social media partners shutdown speech. Colleges trying to cancel speakers like Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro... you guys are not about freedom of speech or diverse ideas.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Lol

I misstated... they were not allowed to contribute to the independent investigation that had been conducted by Australia and Dutch. So my apologies on that statement... I'm trying to pull things from my memory bank over the last 8 years. There's a lot of nonsense that went on since then.

Funny how your “memory” always goes towards one false narrative

So is Putin’s Russia

No where close to Soviet era. He's no better or worse than any other leader out here. He's got his flaws just like any of them, but he's no Stalin, Pol Pot or Mao.

Hell, to be honest, he's likely on par with Lincoln and Andrew Jackson in certain areas.

 

[Volbucky]

Better tactics or just different tactics?

You are delusional

You also realize context matters too. This is 2022 not 1860

I do openly admit, I have learned not to trust my own govt. Now is that my fault or their fault?

You don’t trust anything except Putin. That’s 100% your fault and you are seriously delusional in your ramblings

 

[utvolpj]

Would Ras cry if a Ukrainian sympathizer was able to assassinate Putin? I'd enjoy that.

Those don't usually work out well. Better be damn sure who is next in line

And Putin, in this 2022 context, is no better or worse than many of his peers. Hell, he's showing already that he has a few more bulbs on his tree lit than Biden, Trudeau and most of these European leaders that are enslaving themselves to a green energy agenda and woke politics.

Good grief. You're usually a little better.......I think. Maybe it's time to reevaluate.

Putin is a convenient ally for the moment, in my mind. He's giving these people that control the West, in particular the US, all kinds of hell and frustration. They are self-immolating with these sanctions and their parasitic foreign policy decisions.

It's gotten so bad that Biden is begging Iran and Venezuela for energy while still buying Russian oil.

You call me crazy, yet this is our leadership acting like this right now.

All indications are that Russian / rebels shot down the plane, Pretty much everyone involved (Dutch, Malaysian, etc.) except the Russians agree on that.

We call misinformation misinformation; kind of like what's going on in Russia now.
And social media platforms should be allowed to control what they allow on their platforms. The same as Fox is allowed to control who they have on as guests and the news they choose to report.
No one is stopping Donnie from creating his misinformation platform.....other than his incompetent employees.

 

[EasternVol]

Considering Russia hasn’t won a stand alone war since Napoleon, I would consider them vastly better

Georgia and 2nd Chechnya.
