They did beat back the ukes from the donbass who has been digging in for eight years, armed by nato and killing thousands... They died in the thousands.

@Mwwwwwwwwe How did murdering, by estimates in Iraq a million ded, not imperialism... Six months into the conflict and Kyiv is intact but the power grid is out... Shock and Awe in iraq on the first days the power grid as well as infrastructure was flattened.

@edwardbernthal160 It feels like russia wil defend the annexed territories and dig at ukrain's offensives until much of ukraine is russian territory...

Certainly the americans made regeme change in Kyiv in '14

 @cameronspence4977 He recently replaced his security commanders in mass... I get the impassion that he is probably going to be killed by military commanders or others....

@coffeewithbleach6168 I like to think of myself as a russian bot: the kinds of people who never believed that trump was installed by putin...

@edwardbernthal160 The Ukrainians arn't going into Kherson... They want to stay away from that caldron... Now a caldron but most of the population went east before hand.

@edwardbernthal160 I have heard it argued that the civilian population is scared of the Ukraine troops... It is often deadly to be seen as a supporter of russia in Ukraine and many have died.... An example early on is Bucha where, according to military forensics expert Scott Ritter says that all evidence points to that as a Ukraine massacre. Many of the annexed territories have electricity and water... Kyiv and other cities not so much so I am not sure why anyone stayed in northern Kirson... It is also getting cold....

The russans have huge quantities of very good weapons... They also have a tendency to hit their targets, not town squares and community centers with shrapnel hymars. ... Supposedly hymars are being guided by the americans and that is what they are hitting... Harassing populations generally makes radicalizes the into cohesion against the threat and that is exactly what is happening in eastern ukraine...

@fredmccready9940 I feel like it is better to give examples of how people's narratives don't match with reality than to call them fools.

@andrew30m My understanding is that the democratically elected person at the time, pineapple face because of some toxins that were thought to be an assassination attempt, read both the proposals of the EU and russia and was leaning toward the russian proposal.

@AndyM_323YYY Russia argues all the time about what is legal and what is not... It makes no sense because the only thing legal in international law is might makes right... By that measure what russia is doing is legal.

@AndyM_323YYY The US owns the Hague and they aren't subjected to any court.... They have been funding multiple millions of deaths, refugees and resource extraction since the fifties... and old school piracy as well as outright canceling of gold and dollar accounts... They have been arguing for what they call the 'rules based order' which is separate from what others call international law... How is it not 'might makes right'? How is it that the russians arguing what is legal and what is not sound silly?

@AndyM_323YYY "Conspiracy theory" only means theory or narrative... Example: it was considered a right wing conspiracy theory that trump was NOT installed by putin... That was when the left wing was saying without stopping that trump was installed by putin for years and they backed it up with both fabricated and tangential [impertinent] facts. It is better to take what I posit one at a time... As I remember I threw out a number of narratives.
1
@AndyM_323YYY Some narratives are yet to be realized and posited by others... Others are solid narratives... Bucha was said to be a ukrainain massacre according to Scott Ritter... As I am not a forensics expert, I defer to people who are familiar with it, like Scott Ritter.

@dennislions1 Maybe we shouldn't make matters worse by sanctions.... And justify those sanctions by fighting to the last Ukrainian... Other than on the battle field where ukraine is getting severely splayed, what the US is doing don't make a lot of sense to me.

@deriznohappehquite In the past it was considered capitalism to support the population with housing, education, healthcare, education, transportation for free or at reduced prices... It lowered the cost of living in so that the workers were able to support industry... Now it is considered socialism but is it really? It was replaced with the idea that only things that are OWNED by atomized people made any economic value at all and that collective efforts were not adding any economic value at all. That model, touted by reagan in the reagan revolution, is known as neoliberalism. What it lead to is a return to the new gentry owning everything and keeping the rest of the economy in debt to them as well as deindustrialization. A break from this form of central planning in the 18'th century was thought of at the time as freeing the market.... A return to it is actually feudalism.... It is the east, as in the east in the new cold war, is actually industrializing. Again that is what was formerly known as capitalism. This is the clash of civilizations of our time
