I mean, think about the last time you had to spend any amount of time in close quarters with someone remotely like him and how physically painful it was to have to deal with. Now imagine how someone could willingly do that every day, and the only explanation is they are mentally ill or they also suffer from the same room temperature IQ.

I’m sure it’s been mentioned here but I watched the Netflix series “Turning Point, The Bomb and The Cold War.”

It goes through the whole Russian history, WW2, Communisom, the Cold War and how the Oligarchs got set up.

Its a great series and pretty insane how all of it came to be with Putin. He was just a below average KGB guy close to the Berlin Wall and now he’s probably the wealthiest guy in the world.

Putin has always had the most delusional priorities for himself and Russia that make no sense in the grand scheme of economics, functional society and rationalism.

He’s a true psychopath and I can’t wait until they blow his head off. I don’t see any way that he dies of natural causes.

He was great in Get Him to the Greek and the other cameos he did based on that character. I guess he lost his audience and pivoted to a bunch of lonely saps to cling to fame.

Also still looks pretty prime to me.

⚡️Another video report on the use of FPV kamikaze drones as air defense.
This time, the "Signum" 🇺🇦 unit destroyed 49 Russian reconnaissance UAVs:
X36 ZALA
X7 Supercam
X5 Orlan-10
X1 Lancet
🤔Please note that the Russians have started repainting their UAVs to make it harder for the FPV drone's camera to detect them.

same conclusion….

[Eskimohorn 5635]

Yep, had absolutely nothing to do with our island hopping campaign, our absolute destruction of the Japanese Navy and Air Force, our complete and total air superiority.  Nope the Soviets, without a real navy to speak of at that point, or air power of any significance in the theater is what just turned the tide.  
Patton was an asshole, but he was always right, we should have just kept marching straight to Moscow.  It's a shame we lacked the political will to do it, the world would be a very different place today.  

I guess Truman was too much of a pussy wimp to pre-emptively declare war and sacrifice millions of lives in a vain attempt to invade Russia, not heeding the examples of Napoleon and Hitler, while simultaneously leading our country into bankruptcy or listening to citizens who were war weary and grateful for the help our Soviet allies, who (checks notes) we supplied during the war.

There is no doubt that Russia did the heavy lifting in World War II.  Granted, Stalin was largely responsible for World War II.   But the German army we faced in 44 and 45 was the JV of the German army.    I would rather the Soviets have lost millions of men then the yanks.

Whenever I see how much money Jones and Rogan have made, it doesn’t surprise me at all that he is grifting the dip shits.  Although I do think it likely that he is just that stupid.   His comments about being so anti-authority that if a doctor tells him to sit down, he’ll stand on purpose tells me that he has a five year olds ability to process information when his emotions are engaged.

That's not really true. Germany sent more men to the eastern front. But it sent much more equipment to the western front. It knew it needed the material there. Men were plentiful. Tanks, planes, artillery, and trucks were not.

🇺🇦🤝🇺🇸 The U.S. has announced a new military aid package for Ukraine worth $250 million.
It includes Bradley IFVs, MRAPs, M113 armored personnel carriers, rockets for HIMARS systems, and much more (full list in the last screenshot).
The equipment will be provided under the "PDA" program, meaning it will be delivered within a few weeks.
🤔 It is known that Ukraine will receive 200 M113 armored personnel carriers. The quantity of the other items is unknown.

Another page from the "All that is old is new again" file.

The French were among the first to introduce camouflage, starting with Nieuport fighters with which they tested a variety of schemes during the Battle of Verdun in early 1916. A light blue-grey Nieuport 11 was flown by Georges Guynemer which he named Oiseau Bleu (Blue Bird) while some Voisin IIIs were also painted in the same colour. At the same time, disruptive schemes using several colours were also tried out.^[1]

Per Alex Jones, FDR started WWII because he declared an oil embargo on Japan in retaliation for their invasion of China, which restricted his access to opium.

Something else to consider. The Bolsheviks preferred the Germans to the Brits/French. The latter dealt more with the White Russians during the Civil War. Soviets did not forget that.

According to unconfirmed information from the Russian publication SHOT, Girkin will be released from the colony and sent to the "SMO zone". 

The lawyers of the former "DPR" defense minister allegedly managed to obtain the corresponding permission from all relevant departments. As a result, Girkin's imprisonment was replaced with service in the "special operation zone".

Just wondering:

1) Do you think the Luftwaffe and the Wehrmacht would have been the skilled combined arms machine it was in 1940 absent earlier Soviet involvement allowing them to achieve illegal violations of Versailles’ arms and training restrictions?

2) Without the Molotov-Ribbentrop Treaty, do you think Hitler would’ve invaded Poland if he thought that would induce a war with the Soviet Union?  We are talking about Germany at a time when France and Britain were not defeated, France was seen as the premier army in Europe, and a Russian Barbarossa plan could not be considered without knowing that a serious Western threat existed?

”Opportunistic” seems like you think Stalin was just chilling until Hitler asked him if he wanted to share Poland.  I think it is universally accepted that’s the Soviet Union’s foreign policy at the time focused on trying to get capitalist countries to go to war with each other, weakening the non-communist world, which would ultimately inure to the Soviet Union’s benefit.
