Comments by "Stephen Jenkins" (@stephenjenkins7971) on "[ Bryansk, Russia ] 2 Russian military base/depot attacked - massive fire/explosion reported" video.
@biblehistoryscience3530 A lot of people are concern trolling but in reality are just shilling Putinbots. "Man, if only Ukraine surrendered, so many lives would have been saved and they wouldn't be getting bombed so much1!!1"

@kaovi1978 Are you serious? Japan's literally independent, and allied nations have kicked out US troops without issue before, why is Japan any different? Bruh, France and the Philippines kicked out those "occupation bases" without the US invading and killing the government. You're conflating Russia with the US, and you're quite ignorant about the reality of US foreign policy.

@tomwensrich9602 Don't mind him, he's on some serious Russian copism.

US is much better in such games, it seems; even if this wasn't done by the US. As seen in how easily it has interpreted Russia's moves in this conflict thus far.

@michaelwhite6614 Apparently gloves aren't off unless Russia fully mobilizes in total war mode. The question is, how pathetic of a nation are you if you need to mobilize the entire country to take Ukraine?

@lumberjackagies5158 Bruh, the 70 days mostly consisted of long travel time and political wrangling in the UK, There was no constant back-and-forth between the UK and Argentina with massive UK casualties; it was a surprise attack on paltry UK defenses and then political movement in the UK on what to do, and then finally sending a task force to the Falklands where the UK smashed the Argentine fleet and then army. In contrast Russia is literally right next door, was the one who initiated the violence with quick strikes across the country with troop numbers comparable to the initial invasion of 2003 Iraq, and then STALLED in key locations across the battlefield. The Falklands War is the complete opposite in terms of context, which is why people use the 2003 Iraq Invasion as comparison, and you know how pathetic Russia looks in that comparison. These losses Russia has suffered are inexcusable for the supposed #2 power.

Russia already escalated things to the stratosphere, the US can assassinate Putin tomorrow and I'd just say "well-deserved". You don't get to throw the nuclear threat around and threaten NATO states in Eastern Europe without a few bloody noses. That being said, that's unlikely that the West is involved, more likely internal unrest boiling over -West is too cautious of making Putin's insanity worse.

@kaovi1978 Japan made independent commissions after the fact, genius.

@ligametis Bruh, nobody expected Ukraine to even survive, or Kyiv to be in Ukraine's hands after the 3rd day. Russian soldiers literally ordered seats in Ukrainian restaurants in Kyiv days after the war started; they were as confident as the West was that Kyiv would fall quickly from weak Ukraine. Instead they have been pushed back...in CONVENTIONAL WARFARE. It's literally unheard of for a big power to NOT steamroll conventional forces; they get in trouble with guerilla warfare, not conventional armies. Russia literally embodies the "Cope, Seethe, and Mald" meme atm. Ukraine in contrast, managing to maintain its actual independence while inflicting massive casualties, AND managing to force Russia to back off of taking Kyiv are in relatively high spirits with the Chad meme. Compare this to the US invasion of Iraq and its absurd how pathetic Russia looks. You need some serious amount of COPISM to spin this lol

Nobody has such weapons, and US is still trying to advance its own laser weapon tech to even damage drones, let alone attack fuel depots.

@holottatrubal Bruh, OBL literally took credit for 9/11 and it wasn't hard to do considering the circumstances, but you need to believe that the US has some super secret weapon instead? I grew out of 9/11 Truther crap when I was 12, c'mon now.

Sounds like Moscow needs a few missiles too, tbh.

@nevermind3147 I doubt its a false flag; Russia has butchered its own citizens in the Russian Apartment bombings for a false flag against Chechnya; their modus operandi is civilian deaths to garner the wrath of the public. Destruction of oil fields with few casualties is not really the best way to garner support as easily
1
@TotalyRandomUsername Idk what's cost effective about 20k casualties in an invasion of Ukraine with hundreds of confirmed Russian vehicles destroyed. Russia has wasted many billions on this war in terms of troop losses and equipment alone. Hell, Russia TRIED to copy the US' shock and awe strategy of Iraq and failed miserably.
1
@lunthang7453 Yeah, also similar in how China fled from Vietnam after declaring victory. We can all ignore context too, you know?

@redbull1826 >Russia invades, destroys entire cities, massacres civilians and builds mass graves, and declares Ukrainians have no right to exist as a people >"US provoking by blowing up oil depots" Wut?
1
@Ktaurus26 Russia is already leveling Ukrainian cities, like good fascists. So where's the threat? And how disgusting of a person does it take to boast the destruction of entire cities for Russian imperialist interests?
1
@attilamarics4808 Bruh, we know that Russia expected an easy W in Ukraine; their own state media in RIA Novosti were boasting about how Ukraine has "returned to Russia" in February. "Russian state news accidentally publishes article saying Russia has defeated Ukraine and restored its 'historical borders'"
1
@attilamarics4808 Their state media, paid for by the Kremlin itself is effectively just another government spokesperson, genius. US also never said that they went into Iraq for personal goals, and suddenly you need Russian officials themselves to admit to their war crimes? Copism. I already gave you a source, I literally saw the damn thing before it was taken down. It's your own copism not letting you inhale the fact that Russia bit off more than it could chew.
1
Bruh, if NATO got involved, they'd be shelling Moscow within weeks. Russia is a joke in conventional warfare; the issue is nuclear war while an sociopath is in control of the country. Normally people wouldn't threat nuclear warfare in getting involved in another country's invasion, but would reserve it for the event to prevent near-destruction of the country or the leader; so basically it shouldn't be used outside of troops getting ready to storm Moscow. But Russia threw all of that reasonableness out, so nobody cares what they want; they just look like a giant North Korea. You treat it with carefully, but with nothing but disdain.

@titariko4380 The EU allows countries to pay in Rubles, but nobody is really bothering. And where has it been stated the exchange rate is better? On paper it is, but in practice is another story entirely; especially as Russia has closed off the stock market to hide the Ruble's value.
1
@titariko4380 Right, so via Western standards its still "closed" since its under heavy restrictions to prevent the public fallout of the Ruble, but the black market has skyrocketed trading Rubles for Dollars or Euros. The public exchange rate is better, sure. Emphasis on "public", not the reality. But hey, if you believe that many banks losing SWIFT access and Russia demanding purchases in Rubles somehow means the Ruble is fine, then feel free inhaling that copium, my guy. EU isn't forcing anyone to do it and nobody but Hungary is actually buying oil in Rubles. Literally no one. You can cry that they have no choice all you want, but Russia also has no choice; it can't crash its own oil industry by refusing to sell oil at all.

I guess Russia has the right to murder, r@pe, and destroy cities to their foundations as long as they "asked nicely" beforehand. I doubt you'd be so glib if the US gave such an ultimatum to Russia.
