Soon they will begin to surrender en masse, "as it was one time near Stalingrad," said Alexander Semanov, veteran of the Vostok battalion and a public figure of the DPR...

Here's the fundamental flaw in your argument, which renders your entire opinion suspect.
Joe Biden, while inept as F, is that '20 year dictator' you describe. What he represents is the bad guy you're talking about. We ARE led by a dictator who has been in power 20 years, in one form or another.
It's important to know the players if you want to understand the game. You don't.
Here is more info on Mariupol which reputedly is still not fallen although again reputedly may be surrounded and under siege by now, with the land bridge to crimea from the east reputedly established:

Yup. Odd, isn’t it that American is being invaded every day, and Washington welcomes the invaders with open arms, food, clothing, housing, money and education?
NATO is always expanding and that’s somehow ok.
In fairness, that is a bit of a misleading stat (though the point is still valid). Unless Russia drives an attack sub onto land and starts firing torpedoes at Ukrainian forces, or decides to just annihilate it with Topol-M ICBMs, most of that money is spent on weapons that are not relevant to this battle.
“NATO is always expanding”??
Actually that’s incorrect - it is “COUNTRIES are always joining NATO”
NATO doesn’t go out forcing countries to join.
Poland, Romania, Estonia, Latvia etc. WANTED to join, petitioned to join. WHY? Because Russia is a threat.
Your “NATO is always expanding” is a false narrative.
Countries want to group together to protect themselves from the big bully - Russia. And Russia’s actions in Georgia and Ukraine are adequate proof for WHY these countries want to join an alliance to protect themselves FROM russia
I apologize — I don’t read Cyrillic.
No, it is NOT.
Ukraine simply put doesn't want to be part of Russia.
If Russia could prove that Ukraine had nothing to fear in that respect then there would be no clamour to join NATO.
Why did Ukraine want to join NATO in the first place? Because of what Putin did in Georgia, because of Putin constantly saying that he wanted "little Russia" to join with Muscowy.
you guys fall for Putin's line of "this is NATO expanding east" - while forgetting that NATO didn't go out currying Poland etc. to join -- let's take ESTONIA for example - the people and the government have been desperately joining NATO, the EU, the eurozone, every kind of alliance.
WHY?
Because Putin wants to gobble them up
Why?
Firstly, legally, Ukraine is not part of NATO or any defensive pact now, so unless Ukraine invites the US or Poland in, it's a no go
secondly, the presence of foreign troops would play into Putin's propaganda
The fact that right now Russians are being made to fight ukrainians is demoralizing to the Russian soldiers. They do NOT want to fight or kill their brother Slavs.
And that is bad for Putin.
and no, he's not been in power for 20 years.
You want to support Putin? really?
Nor Ultra New Neo Fascists, do not forget we are all Neo Fascists Now because of DEMOCRACY and UKRAINE they must be defended before Putin destroys the world. Yeah Right.
Hurry up jump on, the bandwagon is passing.
I’m really astounded that it hasn’t fallen. This shows that the locals don’t want to fall to Putin. AND also that the Russian army doesn’t want to kill their brothers.
the Russians would have no problem levelling Grozny or Tehran or Ankara. But to fight and kill fellow EASTERN Slavs?? Who are Orthodox to boot?
Putin is asking his soldiers to kill their brothers and they are baulking at this.
It sounds all very romantic. But, the Russian soldiers are not there to kill Ukrainians, but secure the areas they’ve been ordered to.
Killing people is not their objective. They could have even taken out power, but have not.
I’m in agreement with you. It is quite obvious Biden isn’t capable of organising the election steal - he’s just a puppet. It’s amazing the number on here who fret more about the thief at the end of the street than the one in their own house.
Listen closer. I said he REPRESENTS your '20 year dictator'. He's just the current puppet, exactly as Obama and the Bush family were, and Hillary was supposed to be.
You lack a basic understanding of the way it is and you are naive as to the big game.
Why do I support Putin, you ask with a child's fascination and over-simplification borne of ignorance? I do not 'support Putin' in the way that you mean. I support the war against the derp state in all of it's manifestations. Ukraine is the tip of the spear and the latest derp state move.
If they accomplish that, it's game over.
Trump and Putin are the two most powerful enemies of the deep state. You saw how they did Trump. Now you see how they are doing Putin. You are witnessing the deep state's attempt to take down Putin and neutralize Russia, which will leave the derps (and China) a clear playing field. Sadly, you are part of that effort.
It would behoove you to think more deeply and apply everything even you've seen in recent years. It's a connect the dots thing, which is a skill many Freepers lack.
Not #TeamPutin....team #AntiDerp and #TeamAmerica. As much as it hurts your feelings, Putin is on our side.
Helpful hint: The people of Ukraine (and Russia) are as much pawns in the game as the American people are. This is not about them.
#ExpandYourThinking
p.s. You can save your 'why do you support Putin' manipulative sheep rhetoric. That's baby talk. And I don't speak sheep.
“The level of Putin support here by conservatives is depressing”
They are not conservatives. They are Liberaltarians. They are about 3% of the population, but they are very loud.
Their opinions are not respected, nor taken seriously.
That's odd. I'm neither a libertarian or a so-called conservative. The label I wear is American patriot.
Their opinions are not respected, nor taken seriously.
Show any sign of intelligence, and I might consider your opinion.
Doesn't take much to bring out the nasty
I could list the issues past 22 years that them to act like this
Bush bashing and opposing pathway to citizenship
Schiavo....now that was a bloodbath..the ad hominem steadily
Now this.....not surprised
But they don't care...like
One thing they lack is the old Howlin style wolf packs screaming for zots
All that stupid high school brats Kitty Kitty talk
Never much cared for gown ups thinking that way
Some of these fights cost us very good posters ..
Those type of people are easily herded and stampeded. They are little balls of green clay who the derps shape into derp gumbies. Yesterday it was Vax Gumby. Today it's G.I. Joe War Gumby.
“NATO is always expanding and that’s somehow ok.”
It’s great when the good guys win. Russia lost and their enslaved nations ran to the NATO.
Sweden and Finland are next.
