Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Kagetora: I really wish that would be so, but what I fear would happen is the person calmly typing anti-Ukraine BS into their phone would end up on some godforsaken rant about one of the ridiculous talking points regurgitated by the media and Twit/Face/Snap/Bookagram. --Accountability! --Fake News! --Corruption! --Denazification! --Globohomo! --Fuck Everyone Involved! Fuck Nato! Fuck Ukraine! Fuck Russia! I don't think that would help Oksana much, but, frankly...I'd expect it to happen. I'm getting very discouraged with the "conservatives" in my neck of the woods. Several people I know personally do nothing but regurgitate Russian talking points on social media. I've cut quite a few people out of my life based on it. Talking to them, trying to reason with them, offering up reasonable arguments...none of it leads anywhere. I've gotten pretty tired of it, on top of my health issues and a variety of other life things going on. Instead, I think I'll just make an effort to be positive where I can, make sure to let people like Oksana know that some of us aren't fucking retarded, and keep writing my representatives to hopefully make sure aid continues to flow. Contribute what I can. I swear to all the gods anyone believes in, I literally had a conversation today where someone made the remark that Ukraine used to be part of Russia so they deserved to have it back and we shouldn't interfere. When I argued contrary to that, the rebuttal was "So, you'd support Texas seceding from the Union then?" I was like...holy fuck. My responses were "Ah, so you'd have supported Britain in 1812, and don't tell me for one fucking second that you wouldn't pee yourself with excitement if California broke away and took it's Electoral College votes with it." Silence. Tomorrow, that same person will start parroting more anti-Ukraine propaganda. It's a losing battle against smooth-brained people on the left-half of the bell curve, and I'm rapidly lacking the energy to fight it. |

"Combat order: immediately withdraw from Bakhmut to a new place of hostilities," - Magyar
This is only for his unit, only the birds were ordered to move from this direction to another, now no one is going to leave Bakhmut, especially after the counterattacks @krvchkwar BAHMUT.LIFE! https://t.me/bakhmut_life/21858
Military about the situation in Bakhmut: "There is absolutely no withdrawal of troops from Bakhmut" Bahmut lives here BAHMUT.LIFE! https://t.me/bakhmut_life/21868
 The video is provocative and is part of a disinformation campaign against the population of Ukraine with the demand of spreading panic and provoking the top military and political leadership. It should be noted that Prigozhin is not the first to imitate being on the front line , while actually being in the rear. In January, he published a photo from a cave in Volodymyrvka behind the Soledar salt mines, but then the fighting was going on. In general, the Russian command avoids visiting the front line and therefore does not have the overall picture. On the other hand, such "military leaders" as Yevgeny Prigozhin do not count with losses. https://sprotyv.mod.gov.ua/2023/03/03/vlasnyk-pvk-vagner-imituye-perebuvannya-u-bahmuti/ |

Well, why not a single RUDN University, so to speak.
Here is another story, however, quite predictable and obvious. At Moscow International University, teachers bully a student for his patriotic position, for an opinion on SVO that does not coincide with the opinion of a Russophobe teacher, and for taking reports and films from a state channel employee to analyze journalistic work. Mine, in this case. However, it doesn't matter at all. these are my films or not. The same situation would have been if he had taken Sladkov's work as an example. Poddubny, Kots, Pegov, any journalist who takes pro-government, patriotic positions. Because the teacher, an employee of the radio station "Echo of Moscow". He has everyone whose opinion is not close to him, enemies and villains. As Boris Nikolaevich Chicherin wrote already in 1861 about our liberals: “The distinguishing feature of a liberal is that he considers all his opponents to be scoundrels. Low souls understand only vile motives. Therefore, he is not picky about means. spears for the truth, for the idea. Everything revolves on personal antics, on swearing; shameless interpretations, poisonous hints, lies and slander are used in business. Here they try not to prove, but to finish, hurt or spit. Moreover, it is obvious that this anti-state position is not the position of teachers, but of the university itself. Otherwise, hardly anyone would allow journalism seminars to be conducted online. That is, the teacher is, it must be understood, abroad, and he will explain to Russian students from there how to hate "this country." Is such a format of teaching possible without the permission of the university administration? Of course not. We have the Ministry of Education and Science, officials, they say something about patriotic education, about new programs. But in fact, half of the humanitarian higher education is an anti-state, pro-Western structure. Where students are not taught professions, but simply put wild ideas and meanings into their heads. Here is the same RUDN with which I started. What is there, vice-rector, Ukrainian community? Have you commented on the attack by Ukrainian terrorists? No? Do you know why? Of course, we all understand why. To student Mikhail, who is being bullied by his teachers for daring to love his country, I can only say one thing. Michael, don't be afraid to stand up for your convictions. And come to practice. I will be glad. Email in channel description. https://t.me/SergeyKolyasnikov/46712 |

We should have then exited. UBL was in Pakistan and we surely knew he was there the whole time. That should have been the new target Jan 2002. In and done and exit. Everyone that kept that occupation rolling at the WH and Congress should be strung up. Be that as it may, our wrong does not excuse Russia invading UKR either. Ukraine did not bomb skyscrapers in Moscow. Nor did they invade a Russian ally. Putin played the Hitler song and dance routine of rescuing Russians who just wanted to secede. ETA: total not bashing the troops who served. I have se real family members who were there bravely serving our country. But our civilian leaders are shitbags for keeping them there past the initial objectives. As stupid as the Iraq invasion was, trying to replace a hostile dictatorship with a friendly democracy is very far from Russian genocide. And I agree that the USA has lost credibility with that 2nd Iraq invasion. I read somewhere that even Putin saw this as a green light to project power and started down the road to where we are today. It's amazing how events in history influence each other: The USSR invades A-stan in 1979. The USA supports the Muj. to fight the Soviets. Osama Bin ladin arrives to help and becomes OBL, ends up forming Al Queda. Iraq invades Kuwait, the US moves to kick them out and stations troops in S. Arabia, getting OBL into planning 9-11, which leads to A-stan in 2001 and Iraq Part II in 2003, which influences Putin for 2008 (Georgia) and Ukraine in 2014 and 2022... |

Well then I’m supporting Russia! And I’ll find whatever “sources” fit my conclusion to support my..,conclusion! When Trump was being impeached, everyone was criticizing Obama for only sending blankets and MREs, instead of lethal aid. If Trump was in the White House right now, doing the exact same things Biden is doing, GD would look a lot different. Everyone would be lauding him (rightfully so), for getting Europe to donate weapons and defeating Russia without shedding American blood. He’d a be a genius. And the leftist code pink types would be a lot more vocal against the war too, I bet. It’s all so frustratingly predictable.

Attack footage is basically what we’d already seen- landed carefully and then blew up. Seems like the “counting coup” video was just proving they could do it, because it is so very unbelievable. Russian TG has also said similar, largely just throwing up its hands and muttering a drunken WTF.

Over 3 minute video. They made a point to show the drone taking off from just outside the fence. Presumably to give the UA some deniability for when Putin attempts to use this to force Belarus into the war. Belarus certainly has a big domestic opposition to Putin and Lukashenko and certainly plausible that the attack was planned and executed without UA involvement. |

And Georgian troops were in A-stan supporting operations and Bush got them flights home in a hurry so they could defend their country. I never heard anything on here to support Russia. (Remember the pictures of Russians standing next to large piles of Bushmaster M4 that were captured from Georgia) I think conservatives started supporting Russia when they saw average Russians nationalistic and enthusiastic supporters of their country while, in contrast, we here in the USA are in a cold civil war with one side actively demeaning and condemning our history, culture, and traditions, tearing down statues, burning flags, kneeling at the anthem... I think they feel like Americans without a country. These folks looked up to Russia in that regard. I was even complimenting Putin as a president that is proud and supports his own country.

Within 72 hours, that's how the situation changed. The Ukrainians most likely withdrew from the 1st and 2nd line of defense of Bakhmut. The rest of the forces are probably holding positions in the western part of the city of the 3rd defense line.

Holy shit....WILD. Such projection and wanton nievatee... Dude communism is "fake it until you make it"-except it never makes it! Just death and oppression for all... Do you love NORK too because they put on such propaganda displays? Man. Idk, you reap what you sow... I just wish we could have our own timezone and coastline to seek shelter from the storm in...

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ITCHY-FINGER: No kidding. And Georgian troops were in A-stan supporting operations and Bush got them flights home in a hurry so they could defend their country. I never heard anything on here to support Russia. (Remember the pictures of Russians standing next to large piles of Bushmaster M4 that were captured from Georgia) I think conservatives started supporting Russia when they saw average Russians nationalistic and enthusiastic supporters of their country while, in contrast, we here in the USA are in a cold civil war with one side actively demeaning and condemning our history, culture, and traditions, tearing down statues, burning flags, kneeling at the anthem... I think they feel like Americans without a country. These folks looked up to Russia in that regard. I was even complimenting Putin as a president that is proud and supports his own country. My balloon of naivete was popped when Putin sacrificed his people for empire and conquest. There are a bunch of fucking idiots on this site who support russia because biden supports ukraine. Their limited intelligence does not allow them to process semi complex thoughts. I cannot read 10% of the posts in the Ukraine hate threads because they cannot construct a coherent sentence. |

Unless they use cracked firmware. Which negates "non flight zones". It's easy enough to build your own and not worry about such things. Ukraine seems to have a pretty good talent pool related to drones -and- they seem to be able to source components in bulk. |
