Auto-SummaryThis forum post is a vehement critique of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, dismissing claims of genocide and characterizing the situation as a direct result of Western sanctions. The author argues that Russia will benefit from the conflict, becoming self-sufficient and immune to sanctions, while the West faces economic turmoil. They express shock at Russia's continued oil and gas supply to Europe, viewing it as a humanitarian crisis. The post also criticizes the U.S. for its own history of causing starvation through sanctions, contrasting Russia's actions with Western hypocrisy. Overall, the author presents a biased, pro-Russian stance, accusing the West of deceit and manipulation.
unam sanctum said: First, Putin's lies don't sound any more believable coming from your fingers. There has not been any genocide of ethnic Russians in the sovereign state of Ukraine, and since you and your master comrade make this claim, I challenge youns to prove such assertions. You must be fucked in the head to think Putin will stop at Ukraine's eastern boarder. There is high probability Putin will cut off the Suwalki Gap in the near future (if he has enough armor left), therefore forming a Russian controlled island out of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Contrary to what you said there are ethnic Russian ties to those countries as well as Poland. Surely he will protect all of his Soviet heritage, not just some.
Second, the only economy being burnt to the floor is your dear comrade Putin's. Which I'm sure he will greatly regret when and if he ever regains any level of adequate brain function. The western democracies and powers will not come close to experiencing what Russia is at this moment, much less what they are about to. Even the UN abstainers are not happy with this invasion. India will side with the west, as will South Africa, and Israel too. If the Saudi's and Chinese have the resolute willpower to back Putin, that's on them. They know how they will be received and treated for such a decision. None of his other supporters matter in a geopolitical sense. Anyone not aligned with Russia will have other feet to stand on, even if their own sustain a mere flesh-wound.
Third, I strangely agree with you. The sooner we get this all over with, the better. I hate for my like minded Russians to go too long without their McDonald's, Starbucks, or access to our substantial US dollar. Most of them have done nothing wrong and want nothing to do with Putin. Mere bystanders, like the rest of us, in this great course of an unforgiving history controlled by those who do not have the best interests of their constituents close to their hearts.
Long live the freedom of those who are willing to fight their oppressors. Glory to Ukraine.
All I hear is a bunch of delusional nonsense coming from a completely uninformed individual that is blinded by hatred for Russia over a conflict they don't even understand, and quite frankly, probably had no clue about until 2 weeks ago.
"There is no genocide in Ukraine!" Oh yeah, tell that to the 14,000 dead in Donbass. But I guess their lives don't matter because the media didn't mention it.
I followed this war when it first broke out in 2014. I've followed it for years. To say there is no genocide ongoing in Eastern Ukraine is like an Israel supporter saying that there is no genocide ongoing against Palestine. These are both equally biased and delusional statements that don't reflect reality. The only difference between Israel and Ukraine is that while Israel demolishes people's homes with a bulldozer and steals land at gunpoint, Ukraine instead just straight up destroys people's homes with artillery shells, killing anyone inside. And they have been doing it for 8 years without even so much as a peep of concern from anybody other than Russia.
As for the rest of your post, it just sounds like brainwashed horsecrap that would come from your typical misinformed MSM viewer. The price of literally everything is going to go up, everywhere, not just in Russia, and not just gasoline. Unless you're one of the lucky ones who bought a house already and works a six-figure job, then there is a 100% chance you will be hurting. Obviously this will be the case for the vast majority of Americans, the majority of whom are already living paycheck to paycheck as it is.
Your leaders sold you all out to "hurt Russia" knowing full well what it will do to the economy. They understand this and embrace it because there are other ulterior motives at work here. Great Reset part 2, anyone?
Russia meanwhile will not only survive this, but they will come out on top, completely self-sufficient and immune to sanctions in the long run. They went into this crisis with the determination to completely disconnect from the west and not rely on them for anything. The west on the other hand will be stuck with a long-lasting economic crisis that will last for years. Europe is completely screwed, they have no way to replace Russian oil, gas and coal without putting millions of people without heat in the wintertime. Meaning millions of their people would quite literally freeze for months at a time.
Funny thing is, Russia hasn't even turned off the gas and oil supplies to Europe yet. They could, if they wanted - flip the switch and completely cut off Europe in one of their counter-sanctions. Europe would be fucked beyond repair overnight, with millions of people literally stuck out in the cold. But they haven't done this yet, even though it would certainly be justified. Why not, given they could easily reroute their oil supplies to other clients? That's a good question - I think it's because they understand that hurting millions of people for the idiocy of their governments is not the "right" thing to do.
Too bad that the US, who's sanctions have caused millions of deaths through starvation alone since the 90's, doesn't see things the same way.
Here's the US position on their sanctions in a nutshell:
Our sanctions killed half a million babies in Iraq, but it was worth it.
It was worth it.
This is the legacy of the United States.
Remember that everytime the US announces new sanctions on somebody. They are intended to kill and starve people, they are intended to deprive people of vital medicines. Meanwhile despite all this Russia is "nice enough" to not stoop this low, and continues to supply oil & gas to Europe, even though they don't deserve it - all because they understand the humanitarian crisis it would cause.
It's a stunning position in comparison to the open brutality of the United States.
