Russia hasn’t exactly been a force for human advancement over the last 150 years... More like the opposite.

The world would be better off if we got rid of most of the governments.

You fool! They go, we go! They are using propaganda to make you hate Russians and want to go to war with them. Don't be the fool.

Karl Marx did most of his writing while living a well-funded bohemian lifestyle in London, even as his family was nearly starving in Paris.

Why do we need a world without the kleptocratic police state that gave us Stalin, the KGB, Castro? It must be defended at that cost of nuclear holocaust says state sponsored TV.

This is ancient news. Everyone’s over Russia threatening to throw a hissy fit and nuke everyone.

Isn’t that the truth?

I was just thinking not an hour ago about how the current U.S. government has thoroughly f*$ked everything up and how much better off we’d be without that corrupt organization.

I’d rather have a world with Russia than one ruled by technocrats in DC, Eurocrats in Brussels, and Western oligarchs in Davos.

It’s a stupid question. Russia is not only a part of the world, but the single largest country in it. Nothing that happens in Ukraine can change Russia being “in” the world.

If Putin wants to be super villainy and scary he’ll have to threaten to take over the world and make everyone wear a mask.

“They” in this case is the Russians themselves.
