yeah that dude had like 5 accounts or more..... superboy, tai hai cheng, undertakerwwefan.... an oddball to say the least..... i think he had the record for most amount of one liner posts to other spam trolls

Sorry if this is repost now (I have to go through all the replies in interim a bit later), TIFWIW: Translation:

Ivan, Yuri, Boris.....Evgeny......comrade...we are not your enemy....don't you see?

What do you think will happen now regarding this? Will west put sanctions regarding ROSATOM too?

Many were lied to and told that this was just a standard occupation maneuver into donbass....or a quick push and exfil in another area. Many units didnt even know where they were actually going in the end....and just got stuck in the thick of it.

Great read @DAVEBLOGGINS Hopefully this stuff going on with Russia right now gives a solid kick up the backside to some that sorely need it here....shake them out of dawdling. Canada needs a very potent arctic capability pronto.

It is indeed.... been there, done it....liked some of it....didn't care for rest of it. Hand got forced at the end....I enjoy the greener pasture now. I have always valued silence and quietness..... our greatest people in India always did...for some solitude for reflection and...

Consider also that this is a close brother war.... last one US fought like that at scale was arguably WW2. Brother war adds a real murky dimension that more alien-tribe wars do not surface as much....this allowed leeway for US in recent foreign wars it got into...and somewhat similar with how...

Yes its pretty good what reasonable people can get to (root of matter) when you turn down the extremely loud volume of static and dissonant noises from troll hordes....to the lowest volume possible so you can actually hear what a non-troll regular person is saying. It is why I have to curate my...

It all becomes lot easier to understand when you understand what the percentage split is between transactional approach is vs the moral approach in foreign policy....and just how heavily skewed this is in favour of the former (though in the powers that be, the latter is attempted to be conveyed...

Another round of taggings for now (please do consider putting this thread on your "watch" and interact/read as you would like pertaining to your interests over time)....so you get alerts if you want. A reply does it automatically iirc...and there is a watch thread option for each thread you can...

In any case @HTurk now I find your approach (to which I replied to in this quoted reply at the bottom) quite possibly confusing now. Your concept of how honed + direct + unchallengeable some realism actually is in foreign policy is IMO somewhat lacking (given vast gaps are left in its wake...

"World" surely is too vast and reductive a word here to use? I think its important to stress your tribalist phenomenon becomes the case (to some disturbing degree) when power enters the equation i.e Tribalism was, is and will be the easiest polarised cleave on offer around.... and surfaces...

I chuckled when @era_shield said tb2 had another snack somewhere. lol

Yes this is the short-brief war (mostly punitive oriented) stuff. Expanding this to the scale and frequency needed (annually like reforger) for sustained wars remains to be seen...and the capacity to learn and implement (without upsetting ppl stuck in certain nodes all along it). There is a...

This starts to take the contours of a pyrrhic victory that the CCP really does not want (to show to its people). Why pyrrhic? Taiwan has layered (with help from US, Japan and Israel) its defense network concerning its military among its densely populated island. There is no delineation of...

Maybe folks should reach out to her to get in touch with Indian embassy in Ukraine, they are helping neighbouring countries as well in various capacities from what I seen in some news.

history doesnt repeat, but it certainly rhymes - Mark Twain The Odessa Opera house... ============================================== Hard pressed to say it any better than this gentleman just did....my respect to him and his country Kenya. @Joe Shearer

From a few hours earlier: Ukraine's Secretary of the Security Council announces that the elite squad of killers sent by Chechen dictator Ramzan Kadyrov to kill Ukrainian President Zelenskyy on behalf of Putin have been eliminated.
