  1. I think the idea of riding Putin out from within was the best path forward, but that looks increasingly difficult as he clamps down on information from the West and the outpouring of propaganda. I guess I really shouldn’t be surprised that Russians on camera aren’t willing to disparage the war on Ukraine, but these folks seemed to really be bought in. The West really should be trying to figure out a way to overcome the Russian propaganda.
  2. Does he consider the Russians victim of the war in Ukraine and he's distributing to families of russian soldiers?
  3. Never heard of it so went to wiki - seems like a great spring break spot: Eritrea is a unitary one-party presidential republic in which national legislative and presidential elections have never been held. According to Human Rights Watch, the Eritrean government's human rights record is among the worst in the world. The Eritrean government has dismissed these allegations as politically motivated. Freedom of the press in Eritrea is extremely limited, the Press Freedom Index consistently ranks it as one of the least free countries. As of 2021 Reporters Without Borders considers the country to have the overall worst press freedom in the world, even lower than North Korea, as all media publications and access are heavily controlled by the government.
  4. In the slightly modified words of esteemed philosopher David Chappelle: "Russia if you have a problem with the West, you should sanction us. Sanction us with your army. Ohhhh! Wait a minute - you no longer have an army. I guess that means you need to shut the fuck up. That's what I'd do if I didn't have no army. I would shut the fuck up. Shut. The. Fuck. Up. You think we're gonna take orders from a Russian? You might speak 16 languages, but you're gonna need them when you're in Times Square selling fake hats.
  5. Why aren’t ukraninans rushing in droves to mother Russia to escape the persecution and bombing, why is Russia not playing in World Cup, why is my credit card account not working, why can’t I get a new iPhone, yea that list gets pretty long as far as common sense goes. People will get fed up, just a matter of time as long as Germany doesn’t somehow fuck it all up for everyone.
  6. A 20km convoy turns into a 40km convoy pretty quick simply by putting 2 truck lengths in between each vehicle. Probably a good idea for them anyways so they get blown up in groups of 3-4 rather than 6-8. Also can we use miles? Fuck that should be part of our concession once Ukraine wins. Russia has to move to the US measurement system.
  7. Hey did anyone respond to what the thread title translates to yet? Also - to the comment earlier about the sanctions impact. Under what scenario would those be withdrawn? If Putin were to actually control Ukraine - I can't imagine any of the western countries choosing to remove them. But even if somehow someway - Putin accepted defeat and withdrew all forces, why would we let up? He very well could just attack again in the future. I'd argue they should stick until he is disposed of and the actions condemned by the replacement government/leader.
  8. ugh that is awful. That wallpaper with that bedset?
  9. Good reminder that even though everyone here is team #Ukraine and wish nothing but chaos amongst the Russian army and government, these Russian soldiers are also brothers, fathers, sons, etc. Many of them probably 20-30 years old, and not only have been lied to in regards to what they are doing in Ukraine, but pretty much their whole lives what role Russia plays in the world. I'd say there is pretty good evidence at this point that a lot of the forces sent in thought they were coming to free oppressed people which is why you see Russian soldiers allowing citizens to approach them, asking for fuel, joking about tanks running out of gas, abandoning vehicles etc.
  10. Agree with US not responding to threat of nuclear attacks. They just need to stick with any and all financial sanctions and seizures and hit Russia in the pocketbook at home. That combined with continued supply of arms and assistance to Ukraine should create an almost untenable situation at home for Putin. Maybe this is an opportunity to not only oust Putin, but to drastically change Russia for good.
  11. Enchubben’s Peace talk conditions: 1) Russia immediately forfeit all weapons and vehicles and withdraw all military forces from Ukraine. 2) Russia agree to prosecute and execute Putin for war crimes. 3) Restitution for injured/killed Ukrainians and payment to fix damaged critical infrastructure. 4) Russia to create new state sponsored NFT of dildos falling on Putin’s head.
  12. I really do appreciate you updating us on the German mindset and politics behind their decision making. Interesting to follow along with the war develops. That said, I can’t help but think fuck Germany in their fucking German goat asses on the whole. They had to be drug kicking and screaming to this point and to the detriment of Ukraine and to the rest of the NATO nations. And for what, so they could control the EU narrative and give America a black eye? Their energy situation, lack of national defense, and deep fear of neo nazis in Eastern Ukraine with weapons is/was their own doing. Fuck pretzels, accordions and BMW’s.
  13. Fuck all that, that’s a waste. Sell it on open market and distribute the funds to those in Ukraine who have lost family members fighting Russia.
  14. Carl Spackler Voice: “This is a hybrid. This is a cross ah, of Whiskey, Vodka, and Rum. The amazing stuff about this is you can destroy a dozen Russian armored vehicles in an afternoon with it, take it home and just get wasted to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.”
  15. No I think that’s probably right in this instance
  16. In a time like this where innocent civilians on the other side of the world are getting murdered, we really should sit back and ask ourselves: What does Lebron James think?
  17. Interesting idea on the Javelin stickers. Can we crowdfund a war vs Russia? Anybody got the GoFundMe link? Maybe if we all chip in we can contribute one mercenary.
  18. Made that same touchback bet. Seemed solid given the indoor stadium. I actually put the bet in online once and I thought it didn't go through, so i kept clicking it. Then I realized I had made the same bet 4 different times and my phone just didn't catch up. Pretty elated when i saw the returner let it drop.
  19. That i understand for sure. It's the mental gymnastics of others that believe NATO is the issue/aggressor that perplexes me. Unless you are attacking civilians with chemical weapons, planning for global domination, or harboring international terrorists, seems like your neighbor being a NATO nation would be a non-factor. and fuck you eddie. If I ever see you again, I'm taking my Gameboy back bitch.
