West Has No Right to Impose its Values on World – Putin
Interfax ^ | 10/27/22

Posted on 11/07/2022 6:17:20 PM PST by marshmallow

Moscow, October 27, Interfax - The Western civilization, having abandoned its traditional values, has lost its supremacy on the world stage and, thus being a minority, has no right to impose its values on the rest of the world, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"If western elites are assuming they can inculcate in the minds of their own people, their societies, odd but newly-fashionable trends such as dozens of genders and gay pride parades, then so be it. Let them do whatever they want, but they definitely have no right to require others to follow suit," Putin told the international Valdai Discussion Club on Thursday.

"It is the traditional societies of the East, Latin America, Africa and Eurasia who form the basis of the world civilization," Putin said.

"And respecting national identities and civilizations is in everyone's interest, indeed in the interest of the so-called West as well. And by losing its supremacy it is fast becoming a minority on the world stage," he said.

"The right of this Western minority to its own cultural identity must be assured, certainly, but on par with the rest," he said.

"Traditional values are not a fixed set of postulates for everyone to stick to. They are distinct from the so-called neo-liberal values in that in every case they are inimitable, being a result of the traditions of a specific society, its culture and historical experience," he said.

"Traditional values are not there to be forced on someone, they are simply to be respected, to be cherished as something every nation has been choosing for centuries. This approach to traditional values is shared and accepted by a majority of humankind," Putin said.

“Russia NEVER attacked us.”

Russian pilots killed American pilots in Korea and Viet Nam. Russia funded murderous gangs in Europe during the 70s and 80s.

I’m no fan of Zelenski but I’m perfectly okay with dead Russians.

If Russia did 1/1000 what we are doing in Ukraine there would have been WWIII then. Fortunately, the leaders of the Soviet Union weren’t nearly so reckless or stupid as the illegitimate gang you carry water for in DC. Were you demanding the US attack Russia over their involvement back then? Why now, when they absolutely have not been responsible for harming one American hair on an American head? I know exactly why. The media masters ignore it, you ignore it. Why haven’t you been up in arms demanding we kill Russians for what they’ve been doing since 2014 in the area? Again, no media masters attention, you’re cool with it. Identifying as neocon stooge or globalist stooge today?

Mexican drug cartels are killing 100,000 Americans a year.

Have we declared war on them?

“No you are the one who’s either lying or sorely uninformed. I think you are simply a liar.”

Nice projection, Sparky.

There are scores of links re: the number of casualties from 2014 - March, 2022. Not a one describes anything even remotely close to “extermination” of Russian-speaking peoples.

Here are just a couple, with sources:

https://bitterwinter.org/donbass-did-ukraine-kill-14000-pro-russians/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Russo-Ukrainian_War

Unfortunately for you, facts are stubborn things, and are avoided like the plague by the likes of you. Reality must be a terrifying experience for you.

Don’t project your boyfriend’s pet name on me, Sally.

I know…I know…there was no Euromaiden Revolution. There was no secession movement. Russia’s EVIL! Everyone’s heard your false narrative a thousand times. Keep repeating it! After the election is stolen, FedGov may give a Trillion dollars of my grandchildren’s money to your dancer friend in Ukraine.

“Don’t project your boyfriend’s pet name on me, Sally.”

Sparky?

Let me tell you about Sparky.

Sparky was an annoying little ankle-biter; a real pissant.

Sparky was a Chihuahua; couldn’t have weighed more than three pounds.

I grew up in the 1950s and early 1960s. We were Baby Boomers. Every house in the neighborhood had kids. One of our neighbors had a Chihuahua named Sparky. Sparky would always sneak up behind us, snarling, and nip at our heels and ankles.

Sparky was usually let out in the front yard to take his little rat-sized craps.

One day Sparky met his fate. One of the kids in the neighborhood was riding his bike along the sidewalk in front of Sparky’s house. The kid had his bike all decked out with old playing cards attached to the frame by wooden clothes pins, such that they would be struck by the rotating spokes and make a high-pitched rumbling sound like a small engine. Well, Sparky went after the back tire of that bike and tried to nip it, but he caught his teeth in the spokes and in a flash he was smooshed between the wheel and the frame and the bicycle seat. Sic transit Sparky.

Anyway, about a month or two later, four of us kids (we were, I think, 12 at the time) got together behind the garage to smoke; one of the kids had copped a couple of his mom’s cigarettes. Well, we’re back there, sharing the smokes (there were two cigarettes and four of us, so we doubled up), and one of the kids’ little sister showed up. She must have been about 4 or 5 years old, a couple front teeth missing, and hair in dog-ear pigtails. She kind of whistle-hissed (missing front teeth, you know): “I’m gonna tell mom on you!” Well, one of us – not her brother – just looked at her and said, “Get lost, Sparky.”

And, it just evolved from there.

From that time on we called any whiny, bratty, sneaky, tattle-tale, Sparky. You know; any annoying little shit.

“I know…I know…there was no Euromaiden Revolution.”

Well, I know there was; but you appear to be in denial.

“There was no secession movement.”

Yeah, which led to the Ukrainian civil war. You see, when part of a country tries to secede, a civil war is the usual result.

“Russia’s EVIL!”

Your words, not mine.

“Everyone’s heard your false narrative a thousand times.”

What false narrative, Sparky?

“After the election is stolen, FedGov may give a Trillion dollars of my grandchildren’s money to your dancer friend in Ukraine.”

Your grandchildren are trillionaires? Wow.

I have no dancer friend in Ukraine. But I think you have a pedo friend in Russia, who is on film sucking on some little kid’s chest.

Grow up, son.

“ Americans on the ground using American weapons to kill thousands of Russians?”

You’re getting hysterical, honey.

We’re helping an invaded country adjacent to NATO nations fight against PUTIN (not the Russian people) and his army.

As I’ve said before, better another proxy war with Russia than a nuclear war with them.

You have no clue. How do you think the warmongering fools you’re carrying water for are going to start nuclear war with the Russians? How close were we to nuclear war before the DC globalists and their hinterland neocon stooges blundered us into this quagmire? There was practically no chance. Now look what you warmongers have gotten us into. There’s one way your big guy’s proxy war gets the Russians out of Donbas. Your neocon dreams come true.

Once again, you’re getting hysterical.

The best way to avoid nuclear war is to help Ukraine survive this invasion.

Russia only attacked us or NATO when you get into Hillary’s Russia, Russia, Russia stash again. Nowhere in the NATO Charter is this unprovoked proxy war on Russia sanctioned. We are under no treaty obligation to be there. NATO’s only reason to be there as promised by its leader is “Regime change in Moscow”. Don’t tell my you’re trotting out the tired old, corrupt, civilian murdering world policeman again. Isn’t being responsible for a million mostly innocent Muslim deaths and 15,000 American boys teach you anything? You are so obama regime/media addled that you can’t even see this about keeping your DC oligarchs’ corrupt gravy train rolling. “Well, SOB, the prosecutor got fired” shall not perish from the earth, is what you’re fighting for. You confuse me. Are you identifying as your regular Bushite neocon today or are you prancing around in your newfound globalist stooge identity?

Still hysterical.

Putin’s trying to expand Russia by invading it’s smaller neighbor.

It’s in our interests to stop that expansion or make it very, very costly.

It’s as simple as that. Your unimaginative views as to what you think I think are irrelevant to me.
