Another steaming pile of propaganda from a resident Zeeper.

What actually happened:

After 12 years at the helm of the Defence Ministry, Shoigu will now become Secretary of Russia’s Security Council. Political analyst Fyodor Krasheninnikov told Novaya Europe that for Shoigu this “definitely isn’t a promotion, but nor is it a disgrace, and he isn’t being punished or hidden from view. It’s a sideways move, not a demotion. The Security Council is a somewhat honorary position, but he hasn’t been put out to pasture. Patrushev was and remains quite influential, after all. And Shoigu will have an interesting job and opportunities,” he said.

This is what happens when you think in narrative talking points. You fail to look at the essential question.

Who will be in charge of the military now? That’s the question asked in this Vlog, and you studiously avoid addressing it. It’s not about Shoigu’s personal career. Who cares. It’s about power. And the three branches of power pertaining to the use of force are: 1. the military. 2. the KGB. And 3. The Soloviki. So the question of who will be in charge of the military is paramount. If it’s a KGB apparatchik, that will spell trouble for everyone including Putin, and eventually Shoigu in his new sinecure.

That comment is classic case of projection. You and your fellow Zeepers do nothing but repeat propaganda coming from both the Biden regime and Deep State, both of which do nothing but lie.

Ukraine is getting its ass handed it it. Ukraine is losing multiple villages a DAY this month. There is absolutely nothing that will stop the Russians from taking everything east of the Dnieper. Would you like to make a little wager on that?

The map doesn't lie:

“That comment is classic case of projection. You and your fellow Zeepers do nothing but repeat propaganda coming from both the Biden regime and Deep State, both of which do nothing but lie.

Ukraine is getting its ass handed it it.blahblahblah”

And once again, you sidestep the main issue, which is Russian internal politics, in which power is the main currency.

“You and your fellow Zeepers do nothing but repeat propaganda coming from both the Biden regime and Deep State”

I see. And the Biden Regime and Deep State are delivering Konstantin his information, and you can prove this connection or at least have some hint of such a connection? He can’t have been informed by his life in the Soviet Union, and its subsequent collapse, and the rise of Putin. Nope. Biden and the Deep State are your pet bugaboos, and you can’t be reasoned with.

What you have a closed circle. Anyone who questions your narrative must be in league with Biden and the Deep State, and therefore, you, say “get thee behind me!” and “Blahblahblah.”

Communists used the same closed circle. “He’s questioning the inevitability of the triumph of the working class and the rise of communism, so he must be a capitalist stooge.” So did medieval Catholics, who were convinced that anyone who denied the divinity of their lord and savior must be in league with the Devil. Leftard antifas have the same mistaken thought processes. “If you are for Trump, you must be a fascist.” Etc., etc., etc. Let me know when you’re ready to become a thinking, reasoning human being. Right now, you’re a doctrinaire bore, a dog chasing his own tail in circles.
