Pimpadeaux 2,405 Posted October 16, 2022 Mobilization going great for Russia. https://www.yahoo.com/news/russia-military-range-shooting-leaves-193107841.html A couple of recruits opened fire during training, killing 11 and wounding 25 before getting killed. And then there is this: Quote Some of the freshly called-up reservists posted videos of themselves being forced to sleep on the floor or even outside and given rusty weapons before being sent to the front lines. Russian media reports said some of those who were mobilized were sent to combat without receiving proper training and were quickly killed. Yeah, Russia has the ability to take over the world.

Keeping Russia in check and supporting Ukraine benefits America more than turning a blind eye to a ruthless autocrat taking over the world-dependent breadbasket and fledgling democracy, thus creating regional and worldwide fear and instability as well as potentially deeper economic issues and other problems.

We are destroying the Russian military without tanks, jets, ships and our best sh!t, much less boots on the ground. This is a war the West must win. Nationalism and isolationism have a long-ass history of failure in the United States. It didn't work prior to our involvement in the two world wars. America First started with Woodrow Wilson in regard to World War I, and then the KKK adopted it. Then Trump, which stirred up Antifa, which isn't the threat that the far-right makes it out to be. When it comes to MAGA, history is repeating itself on so many levels - rhetoric, paranoia, nationalism, civil rights, human rights, voting rights, etc. We recently visited the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. It's built around the Lorraine Motel, where MLK was assassinated. The museum takes you through the history, from slavery to emancipation to everything that followed. The Rosa Parks bus is there, and you can go in it and see where she sat. There is a statue of her there in her seat, as well as a statue of the bus driver telling you to get the fock off the bus. It's unnerving, as is the Selma exhibit. Their churches were burned to the ground, killing people, including children, in them. Read up on what happened to the Black Wall Street in Tulsa in 1921. Unimaginable hate, violence and tragedy. Then later on the tour you find yourself standing near the spot where MLK was killed, and you can peer into the room where he stayed, the room kept exactly as it was left, albeit with replica food, dishes, etc. lying around. The experience was chilling, partly due to the rhetoric angry white racist people used back then being eerily similar to MAGA rhetoric today. We are witnessing angry white nationalism, sprinkled in with some people of color echoing those sentiments for political gain, like hypocrite Herschel Walker. There would be no talk of civil war in this country if the MAGAtards would turn down the burner on that subject and figure out a way we can all work together.

craftsman 1,045 Posted October 17, 2022 This ought to stir up some Rusty Ukraine propaganda saying we should keep funding the war in Europe even when Europe is losing interest. Kyiv rocked by explosions a week after Russian strikes across Ukraine Drone strikes hit Kyiv early Monday morning, damaging a residential building and injuring an unknown number of people amid repeated attacks against the Ukrainian capital from Russia forces over the past week. Kyiv city mayor Vitaliy Klichko announced that the Shevchenko district was impacted, urging residents to take shelter. Anton Gerashchenko, an advisor to Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs, confirmed that a residential building was hit during the attacks, but officials have not released details about casualties. Klichko reported that several apartment blocks were damaged, in addition to a fire igniting in a non-residential building. Russian forces have attacked Kyiv consistently with so-called "kamikaze" drones over the past week. The Shahed-136 drones, which are manufactured in Iran, have been used by Russia to target vital energy infrastructure and urban centers. A recent report by the Institute for the Study of War theorized that Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) troops may have traveled to Russian-held territories to help train Putin's troops. The use of Shahed-136 drones ramped up after the Russo-Ukrainian War escalated through Vladimir Putin's annexation of the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions in September. Strikes in central Kyiv were rare occurrences before Putin's illegal annexation, which has been denounced by Western leaders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,313 Posted October 18, 2022 Vladimir Putin recently gave a speech in which he said: “The West is ready to cross every line to preserve the neo-colonial system which allows it to live off the world, to plunder it thanks to the domination of the dollar and technology, to collect an actual tribute from humanity, to extract its primary source of unearned prosperity, the rent paid to the hegemon. The preservation of this annuity is their main, real, and absolutely self-serving motivation. This is why total de-sovereignization is in their interest. This explains their aggression toward independent states, traditional values, and authentic cultures, their attempts to undermine international and integration processes, new global currencies, and technological development centers they cannot control. It is critically important for them to force all countries to surrender their sovereignty to the United States.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is some funny sh!t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is some funny sh!t. Our reasons were never valid, and that escapes you. That just crystalized it. Give it up dum dum. You failed in your analogy. You actually made your point worse.

Here is your exact quote: Quote He doesn’t even get why they call it ww 1, wrecking every reason that we entered that stupid, stupid war. You assert that the renaming invalidated the reasons for entering World War I. Your ignore the fact that Wilson, the guy who got us into it, invented the America First philosophy but went back on it once he realized the incredible stakes, not to mention that the Germans waged unrestricted U-boat warfare, sunk our ships and killed Americans. Prove me wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prove me wrong. They sunk our ships that sailed into a war zone. Stay out of war zones if you’re not involved in the war. Stop acting like they sailed into us waters and attacked our ships.
