  1.  @thanos7691  China produces a lot for domestic consumption for over 1.4 billion people, and still burns lots of trash, trees, saplings, and coal. The government can’t control it because people have to survive somehow, so they released a virus.

  2. Every government exists after having established itself through violence and the threat of violence. Governments often create false flags to target people they feel threatened by, to justify preemptive violence against them (Riechstag fire 1933, Boston Tea Party Massacre 1770, Saint Petersburg bombings 2017, Czarist co-opting of factions within the Bolsheviks , etc.)

  4.  @RememberAuroraColoradoUSA  What's your real name? Russian. Russia never lost 90% of its territory after USSR broke up. Russia stayed intact. Putin installing Yanukovych in Ukraine was not a neutral Ukraine, which is why Ukraine threw him out in 2014. Russian BS news claims this was a coup. Ukrainians wanted to trade with the EU and improve their economy like Poland has. Putin didn't want that, so he had Yanukovych sign onto the Russia-Eurasia Economic Pact in late 2013. That kicked off Euromaiden protests in Ukraine for 4 months.

  5.  @Synonomous  Poroshenko was President from 2014-2019 after Putin's puppet, Yanukovych, was ousted by 4 months of protests from Ukrainians in response to Yanukovych signing Putin's Russia-Eurasia Economic Pact. As soon as Yanukovych was ousted, Putin's Night Wolves and Wagner mercenaries began killing Ukrainians in the Donbas region, and conducted false flag operations wearing masks.

  6.  @RememberAuroraColoradoUSA  Or Europeans don’t want the war spilling into anymore of Europe. You don’t need faceless stockholders or war racketeers for that explanation.

  7.  @adammarcinkowski-ko3el  Biden has been on Russian payroll since 1972. That's why his minions and handlers are delaying delivery of artillery shells, missiles, and aircraft while billions flow where? Trump is the only US President who authorized the decimation of Russian forces in Syria at the Battle of Khasham Feb 2018.

  8.  @casval-pj5tb  Now correlate that with all the ground Russia has lost. It doesn't add up from the big picture, and they're in an extremely precarious position in Crimea. Once fighter pilots and maintainers are already used to one type of aircraft, transitioning to another is easier than starting from scratch. Since Man-Machine Interface is vastly-superior on Western fighters, the pilot training aspect really comes down to an accelerated conversion and then learning the weapons employment. The logistics hubs and supply chains already exist for F-16s and F/A-18s in Europe, namely Turkey, Greece, Romania, Poland, Switzerland, Finland, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, and Slovakia, with a huge favor towards the F-16 enterprise.

  9. The most pervasive religion in the world is Statism concealed by Darwinism and Marxism, taught as irrefutable gospel in 13 years of church/school, averaging 180 days per year of mandatory attendance, 7-8 hours per day. If you blaspheme the retardation of these unscientific and disproved philosophies, you will be ostracized socially, politically, and economically.

  10. Every President takes their WH memos and documents with them after a declassification process. The difference is all the presidents from Bush41-Obama actually did sell secrets to our enemies, while Trump didn't.

  11.  @jh5kl  Nope. Trump is the only US President who authorized US forces to annihilate Russian mercenaries in Syria, sent Javelins to Ukraine, and threatened devastating consequences if Putin invaded Ukraine any farther. Biden has been a Russian stooge since 1972, when they paid for his hopeless political campaign into the US Senate via the tiny State of Delaware. Bush, Clinton, Obama, and Biden would never have allowed the US military to eviscerate the 2 battalions of the Wagner-led battle group that attacked US forces over the Euphrates River, with 6 hours of JDAM and Xcalibur PGM fire dropped on them by USAF and USMC. Wagner Group is led by one of Putin's close friends.

  12.  @segtha7389  What led you to think of Russia as Magog? I'm interested, because I've studied that my whole life. Who really is Gog and Magog?

  13.  @jh5kl  No, the timeliness are exactly relevant and accurate to the discussion. Putin launched false flag attacks against ethnic Russians in Donetsk/Donbas as a precursor to invading Donetsk and annexing Krim. That was in 2014, right after Yanukovych was expelled.

  14.  @danecook6456  US defense industry isn't even in the top 20 highest-revenue markets in the US. Did you know that? Back-up Healthcare Medicare program is over $800 Billion, not including Medicaid, which is another $218 Billion+. Insurance, banking, pharma, big retail chains, public employee retirement funds, big tech, energy, auto, telecom, minerals/ores, farming, are all much bigger than defense. The MIC is overly-emphasized by Russian propagandists because Russia tries to see the US through its own constraints.

  15.  @marioslrzn  The USD is backed by 20 huge market sectors built on the abundance of US geography. During times of foreign regional crisis, investors put their money in the US by the hundreds of billions each year. Not into Russia or other failing states.

  16.  @wamnicho  Russia has very limited domestic production of low-grade wheat, barley, and potatoes. Once Russia opened up, the diversity of food at Western-built grocery stores exploded. A German company called Globus built huge shopping centers with wide variety of imported goods from Scandinavia, Europe, Central Asia, and the Middle East. It's a night and day difference between the Soviet Times where they had bread lines, empty shelves, limited fruit, limited personal hygiene products, limited or no home care products, etc. I lived all over Europe and Russia from 1979-2016 so I'm reporting to you what the people would see, not guesses by "experts".

  17.  @dosa2990  USD is backed by 10 industries that do over $1 trillion each year in revenue, followed by another 10 industries that do $200-$800 Billion a year. Defense isn't even in those 20 industries, although it cumulatively receives over $700 billion each year in the US. People's understanding of the US economy is extremely limited, both inside and outside the US.

  18.  @abrahampope4580  Only $120 Billion. I'm much disappoint. Those are rookie numbers. They should take notes from CA, NY, and other countries.

  20.  @Baianoh  US has helped develop Europe post-WWII, provided European security from 1945-present, helped develop Central America since the late 1800s, Phillipines, Polynesia, Australia, South America, Africa, Middle East, Asia, and even Russia.

  21. ​ @StoneAgeDudemanGaming That's a terrible assumption. It would be more accurate to multiply by .4 to .6 to get a meaningful number in many cases, but no such rule exists nor would it be accurate in breadth. There are some great private OSINT sources to evaluate actual major weapons systems inventories and Foreign Military Sales.

  22. ​ @roeci6 Russia had 456 S-400 TELs before the war. These have to be allocated across the various air defense zone regional units who cover Russian airspace.

  23. Bezlan made all the mass shootings in the US look pale in comparison. These also shoot holes through arguments for more gun control, since it’s extremely difficult to own semi autos in Russia per law. Criminals don’t care about laws, especially terrorists and school shooters. They will find a way to get revenge somehow.

  24.  @paulzx5034  Weird. Stalin sent the Ukrainian 44th Rifle Division to the Winter War after they invaded Poland in 1939, so it wasn’t a small operation.   "The battle of Raate Road is an internationally known encirclement battle fought in early January 1940. The Finnish 9th Division defeated the Red Army elite 44th Division. The 44th Rifle Division was formed in the Kiev Special Military District, and its home area was the region of Zhitomir in Ukraine. The Division was mobilized in September 1939 and participated in the Polish campaign before being sent to Finland.” Russians especially are almost totally-unaware of the history of the Winter War.

  26. Russia came from Kievan Rus. The founder of Moscow was a Kievan Rus prince named Yuri Dolgoruki who contested the rule of his brother. His statue is prominently displayed in Moscow.

  27. Oh really? China can manufacture its own advanced systems that only are made in Europe? China can’t even make semiconductors without Netherlands, and those machines, engineers, and technicians were banned from helping China anymore.

  28.  @shamuswalsh9425  The renewable/green energy campaign is largely Russian-driven to undermine Oil/NG in their favor. Remember that they penetrated universities and governments of the West dating back to the 1930s. They laugh at how gullible people have been buying their environmentalist disinformation campaigns throughout the world.

  30.  @oftin_wong  US sent record-breaking supplies to allies in the Great War. The US was fighting the biggest naval war in history in the Pacific while also supplying Russia with massive amounts of airplanes, trucks, tanks, and supplies. Then the US, while simultaneously fighting the Pacific campaign, launched into the North African campaign forcing surrender of the Germans and Italians, then we launched the campaign into Sicily, then Italy. People who don't know the basics of WWII make these vapid comments about Russia, without taking the totality of the global conflict into consideration. WWII was bigger than most can comprehend.

  31. Bolton has no clue about the Russian perspective or even basic facts about Trump-Ukraine policy of deterrence, which is odd. He doesn’t understand that the way Trump has already framed this whole thing makes Putin weak, because a Russian Tsar can’t be seen as below an America President dictating and setting up negotiations on territory that Putin thinks is his already. Trump is already several steps ahead of everyone, and it has to be negotiated very carefully if we don’t want Russia destabilized. Putin can’t afford to be talked down to like this. It’s very telling Bolton doesn’t understand any of this.

  32.  @gabrielconstantinescu6638  US pioneered hypersonic technology and doesn’t talk about it much. There are 2 advertised hypersonic missile programs in the US. Russian hypersonic missile wreckage in Ukraine showed US electronics in it. FDR transferred over technical data and critical materials to Stalin via Lend Lease from the Manhattan Project, while the Soviets had moles throughout the program feeding them data as well. Modern nuke programs started in the UK when they were looking at the Mahabharata within British archeological academics, who then asked the physics department about the possibility of such weapons. That’s when the modern nuclear arms race began. Oppenheimer used to give people the ancient Vedic texts as a gift because of that. FDR and Stalin worked together for a bi-polar world with nuclear weapons. The scientists in the Manhattan Project had the same sentiments about not wanting the US to be the only global super power, so many of them were ideologically complicit in transferring the technical data to the Soviets. There’s a very interesting documentary on it, with the mole program run by the Russian Ambassador’s wife.

  36. Lockheed Martin lost the F-22 multi-year production orders largely due to A-stan. Germany and France used the profits from opium to bail out European banks, while China quietly "negotiated"(bribed) mining rights with Afghanistan. Those are big wins for China. Less F-22s to worry about in the Pacific, and more access to unique minerals needed for batteries and electronics.

  37.  @SwordOfTheSpirit-I-  If Russia hasn't staged and launched their own forces as we watched them do, why would Russia need to mobilize 300,000 more? The original divisions amounted to 190,000 soldiers. How many of them weren't Russian?
    1
  38.  @SwordOfTheSpirit-I-  The reason for that is to save the main efforts for follow-on invasions of Romania, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland. Zelensky bought all of those nations many years by refusing to go along with Biden’s offer to evacuate him and his family.

  39.  @Максим-ю7й6л  Russian separatists, Night Wolves, Wagner Mercs, and Putin puppet groups launched attacks against Ukrain in Donetsk and Luhansk in 2014, after Ukrainians ousted Yanukovych, remember?

  40.  @outofthebox9699  Russia can't destroy Ukrainian army with nukes because Ukrainian army isn't located in one place. Putin also doesn't want to risk finding out if the nuclear weapons work or if their navigation and targeting systems place them on the correct delivery path. Even worse, say a warhead doesn't detonate and is recovered intact by Ukraine. Russian cruise missiles have been analyzed and contain UK, US, Japanese, and Taiwanese electronics and components that Russia can't manufacture themselves.

  41. You need to split “the West” into Western/Central Europe and then the US/Canada/Mexico. The US/Canada/Mexico doesn’t need external energy, commodities, food, or young people and Russia and China certainly are extremely vulnerable in several of those spaces. Western Europe definitely needs energy and young people. If there ever was a basket case in history, Asia is it. Just look at demographics in any of the sectors. Excess males in China and India, retirement age in China with undercut young ages, fundamental structural problems throughout the spectrum regarding energy, food, security, income inequality, ethnic tensions that make the US look entirely homogenous, and all their neighbors hating them. Most of the “news” networks have been propagating lies about who relies on whom for decades, so that people who follow established networks are systemically misinformed, not educated. This has created a society where most of what people think they know is a pack of lies.

  42. Turkey has manufactured/assembled F-16C Block 40s under license dating back decades, in Turkey. They were supposed to get F-35As and even manufactured critical components for the F-35 engine until they purchased S-400 from Russia and forfeited their participation in the F-35 enterprise.

  44. Hillary's basement server that ran around the clock. Clintons, Bushes, Bidens, and Obamas are nobodies with zero value added to society. That's why they sell out the US. Trump was already a billionaire who doesn't need a dime from anyone.
