I’m sure the pro-Ukers on FR will be more than happy to see this happen when it turns into a WW3 of the nuclear variety.

My observation about them is that they appear to be stuck in the pre-Soviet collapse Cold War, and are just itching for a fight with “the Russkis.” Meanwhile, back in the realm of reality, Vladimir Putin, while certainly a corrupt dictator doing a lot of bad things, is inarguably the most rational player in the whole thing. There’s no mystery to why he’s doing what he’s doing: Putin rightly views the “woke” globalist West as both a military and cultural threat. I think his internal war within his country against the LGBTQ…blah…blah…blah agenda and other degenerate cultural influences is 100% genuine, and every one of us would do the same if we had the power. He knows how the “woke” cultural rot can destroy a country from within, and he’s determined to not only fight it within Russia but to prevent neighboring Ukraine from cozying up to fully degenerate Europe and importing it. Second, he knows that Europe, and increasingly the U.S., is run by a globalist cabal intent upon destroying any remaining national sovereignty in the world in subservience to the “new global order.” He will never allow that, nor will he allow Ukraine to become a neighboring outpost of globalist military power. Again, were the tables reversed we would react in a similar way to an effort by Russia or maybe China were it to occur on our borders (well, at least we would have reacted back when we had actual American leaders and not Communists in charge).

Yes, Putin is using absolutely brutal tactics to get what he wants, as has been Russia’s SOP for a long time. However, I can’t fault any of his reasons for doing so. The western globalist cabal has become a MUCH more dangerous enemy than Russia, and we’ve got to seriously ask if the U.S. hasn’t joined the wrong side in this war. This time, WE might be the bad guys.

Meanwhile, China sits quietly on the sidelines plotting their global hegemony and none of the fools all wound up over Russia invading Ukraine pay one bit of attention to them.

I think that's it. Too many old Cold Warriors, (and I served in the Navy in the 80s), have been led to believe that Russia is just the Soviet Union 2.0.

This is ironic, because they now form a coalition with the super woke libtards, who hate Putin because the Russians are resisting Global Homogenization, aka, Globo Homo.

No one was itching for a fight with the Russkies, the Russkies were itching for a fight with a Ukraine and a West they held in contempt.

They are now learning their lesson the hard way.

“This time, WE might be the bad guys.”

I know some very patriotic people who have started to realize this and it really disturbs them. They aren’t sure what to think anymore.
