The Russian army has been involved in multiple military actions and wars, and has specifically NOT collapsed, something that moon box should let sink in for a while. And Russia is not a police state. Certainly not as free as Canada, but if you want to point to a police state, North Korea comes to mind. No, something else is causing the Russian army to come under strain.

Incompetence and the soldiers realizing they have been sol a lie. If you can get ten years for just saying this is a war, you are living in a police state. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still deflecting. What does that have to do with Ukraine? Putin’s oligarch buddies have robbed the Russian military blind and the high command has been replaced by yes men. What was at one time probably a highly competent military is now rotten from top to bottom and the grunts they send out to die aren’t buying it anymore. This weakness has been exposed by an army a tenth the size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they did...for the second time. Where all all the great defenders of DEMOCRACY now? Ignoring their claims about DEMOCRACY...more Libbie hypocrisy. You’re Hilarious. Saddam Hussein was “DEMOC4ATICLY” elected and re-elected too. I believe Northern Korean Kim Jongs are too. I know the Republican party is licking its chops wanting to hold similar sham “elections” in the mold of their favourite despots everyone who’s not a gullible sucker knows Putin’s BS when they see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first referendum was done without and Russian presence. I follow truth. The truth is...Ukraine originally sent neo-nazis to attack the ethnic Russians in the Eastern provinces. There was a war there way before Russia invaded. But you brainwashed li'l Tweenkies are apparently incapable of understanding anything but the edicts of failed networks like CNN. You would advocate for WWIII if your media wanted you to. Regardless of ALL THE FACTS. The sort of response I'd expect. More whining. Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

Nationalist Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 18 hours ago, Army Guy said: I thought first you had the referendum, then annexation into the Russian fold, I guess Russia does things a little backwards. A what is to stop anyone from just deciding they want a small chunk of the neighbor's land. Or is it alright if you have nukes? And the annexation was never the reason to attack Ukraine, sorry launch a "special operation" It was all about, get rid of the Nazi's and rescue Ukrainians that speak Russia. Not really. The first referendum was held before Russia showed up, with exactly the same results. So what is the fighting about? 2 democratic votes. Both with the same results. One might almost think the people of Eastern Ukraine, don't want to be part of Ukraine. Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

Lol. Beave...you, of all people, know very little. What you "believe" you soak in from failures like Donna LeMon. So now you're convinced that the world should go to war, over a NATO reject, that uses Neo-Nazis to enforce its will on anyone who dare challenge them. Awesome reasoning.

Dude you openly support a totalitarian dictator who ROUTINELY AND OPENLY murders and imprisons people who publicly question him, and who invades sovereign nations and annexes their territory. And in the same breath you dishonestly characterize a sovereign nation defending itself from a foreign invasion as “enforcing its will on anyone who dares challenge them” You continue to be hilarious and pathetic in your feeble fact-free arguments.

The Russian army has been involved in multiple military actions and wars, and has specifically NOT collapsed, something that moon box should let sink in for a while. Mostly fighting insurgencies, intervening in civil wars and battling mighty powerhouses like Georgia (pop. 4.9M). I'm not sure what you think bullying Georgia proves, but now we see what the Russian military can really do. Certainly even you're not impressed with it, are you? 16 hours ago, sharkman said: And Russia is not a police state.

You could fairly say that North Korea is more repressive than Russia, but it's still just a police state pretending not to be. I know the manosphere and the conspiracy parade revere Putin as Strong Manly Man, but the detachment from reality we're seeing here is shattering that comfy illusion.
