@jeriksson7686 the collapse was the problem. The people didn't get to vote on it. Yeltsin was a mobster, and everyone knew it. NATO knew it too. They could have kept the basic structure together and kept their social safety nets and supply chains intact. No one was starving there until AFTER 1991. The people there don't trust the West because we helped the mobsters steal their country.

@Broockle more like they're not voting for the alternatives for whatever reasons. Trump got 2.5m more votes than he did in 2020, but Harris got 7m less than Biden did. It's more about who didn't vote than who did. Turns out Americans are both stupid AND lazy.

@TuskForce oligarchs weren't a thing until Yeltsin illegally dissolved the Peoples' Deputies. IMF coerced the mobsters into dissolving the USSR and privatizing all the major industries. That's when the oligarchs were created.

26:19 the USSR forced nomadic people into forming a state with fixed settlements, hopefully those people will now use that education to find TRUE independence.

our secret weapon to defend against tomato picking robots is Mexicans

Graham choking down Trump's jizz on national TV is embarrassing AF

@puraLusa ROK didn't go "democrat" until the 1990s. I don't know why everyone ignores the fact that they were under a military dictatorship until then.
1
@itskyansaro the good news is they don't have enough troops to "overrun the world." Let them try to invade the US, they won't get past the coast of Alaska.

@kaltenburg2637 GHWB policies meant to appease Turkey. The Kurds' leftist nationalist militias are considered terrorist orgs by the US.

Poroshenko isn't Ukraine's worst option, but as with Trump all litigation against him would have to stop. UA will also need to stop their general anti-corruption efforts, the UA oligarchs will return to power and their EU and NATO aspirations will cease. And no matter how much it bothers him, he will have to yield territory and it will remain a frozen conflict in the minds of the majority of Ukrainians.

@JakeBroe 8:50 I think you need to look at US natgas exports over the last four years and see how we've ramped them up before you shit on Biden for not increasing sanctions a lot sooner. You could make the same argument about Ukraine not cutting off the pipelines through their territory sooner and you'd be just as wrong. We had to be sure we could supply Europe with gas before any of that went down, otherwise they would not be able to afford to cooperate with us in any other sanction or military supply regimes.

Romney is a pretty nice guy by all accounts, he bought a house in North County San Diego when I lived there and is an avid cyclist too. Honestly, at this point I'd vote for him over Biden. I haven't heard of anyone accusing Romney of rape, he has the right outlook on foreign policy, and he invented Obamacare so at least he understands that even a private option for healthcare is better than none. Do I agree with all his social policy stances? Not really, but that's why we have Congress writing laws, not the President.

@TonyM540 I used to prefer Beamish but Heineken ruined everything so that I can't even get it anymore

Russians are trading bodies for TIME. They only need to outlast Ukraine, which is orders of magnitude more expensive than Afghanistan was for the Soviets in terms of casualties, and even the US in terms of money.
1
22:34 you're way off base on Cuba. We could easily put them in our pockets just as Obama had done with Iran. Biden was a pussy for waiting until the last minute to cut them loose from sanctions. He KNEW what would happen next.
1
25:30 someone should tell Trump about how the Russian navy is doing. Also, I didn't know he was a fan of Stalin....
1
@aroddo2953 you're right: Americans are so self-absorbed that we actually let Trump win by default. At least 7 million fewer people showed up for the 2024 election vs. 2020. If what's happening today leads to more civic engagement and more voters showing up for elections, then it's good, but people will die in the meantime.
1
he'll make a mistake that will get him arrested, sharing secret info or something like that.
1
you're pretty confident that Jake is dumber than you, but you're certainly not proving it.
1
It operates in a totally different way @vaataja . Congress doesn't choose the head of government. It's only supposed to write laws, and oversee the other two branches to a limited extent.
1
yeah it's a weird system compared to a Westminster style parliament with a semi-presidential electoral system @vaataja
1
Trump's about a foot taller than Zelensky, but I think Zelensky can take him in the ring.
1
@pauljohansen8043 because half of Americans are assholes. I'm an American and so is Jake, and we are at liberty to level criticism at our own people. You got a problem with that, Ivan?
1
I now live in Ohio so I can vote against Vance, hooray! My votes in California were meaningless, neoliberal, fake progressive Democrats have that state locked up for the foreseeable future.

9:43 lol Russians using iPhone 4

I bet the British would like a rematch...

@johncubbin825 RF paid $41B to retire the USSR's debt. The US' debt was already several trillion dollars at that point.
1
@jJaqStone so they're using child laborers as human shields... got it.
1
@JakeBroe love your show but that's a BMP2 at 18:10, not a T90
1
At one point our missiles were pointed at Ukraine. It was called the Cold War, you should Google it sometime.
1
4:00 Russian soldiers might be getting paid more than Americans, but they don't get a new Dodge Challenger when they join.
1
The CPC is run by Han nationalists. You're absolutely correct in your observations.
1
It blows my mind that people follow Scott Toucher or Andrew Rape regardless of the clear evidence of what monsters they really are.
1
They are stepping up. Our economy is an order of magnitude bigger than theirs. What fraud and corruption are you talking about? Cite some verifiable evidence, Ivan.
1
@Fabianvolf where do you get this garbage? Russia NEVER applied to join NATO. Russia had one of their own agents as Ukrainian PM and the people saw through him. Get over it.
1
@callumjohnston858 horseshit. I already explained the situation, which you have no intention of interpreting correctly. Just shut up already, you're embarrassing yourself.
1
@HasenpriesterTheRealOne how was this offer made in 2000? Everything else you've said is able to be verified independently, but not that part.
1
The "1970 Napoleon film" was called Waterloo. Can no one not be an idiot anymore?
1
@rocketruss3405 I don't know of any actual cash being given to UA from the US, except through charitable contributions from individuals to various aid orgs
1
@sidritkurti1173 those are the kinds of details you can only get from asking people who lived through it, which is why I was asking the OP.
1
@sidritkurti1173 I see. Well, I can't deny that communism was terrible in most of its applications, I just hope that people like yourself in former Warsaw Pact countries elect to retain social programs like health care and education for your people going forward. Those two things are bankrupting working families here in the US. And many western leftist supporters of Russia foolishly equate them with the Soviets who actually provided those things, while Russia today most certainly does not. It's a country run by gangsters, even more directly so than the US. They can't even liberate their own people, how dare they use that language regarding Ukraine, Georgia or anywhere else.

he's going to make Europe a bombed out hell hole again
1
@SirBedevereTheWise NATO should take Turkey's nukes away. Since they're such good friends with Russia they shouldn't mind at all, right?
1
Let's send them a billion dollars' worth.
1
Also, good thing Ukrainians aren't Roman Catholics so they don't need to listen to that ignorant spaghetti bender.
1
@Angelo-q4d Putin is responsible for that too. All the more reason to hate him.
1
This is Harriet Miers x 100. If anyone really believes in a deep state run by the MIC, Trump's clown show is the perfect way to distract everyone from it. Frankly I'd prefer the deep state in charge.
1
We were founded by traitors @0816M3RC . I'm starting to wonder if the cause was even worth it.
1
18:37 Trump is the kind of guy who gets the shit beat out of himself after talking nonsense to random people in a bar and then sues the bar because he's a chickenshit coward.
