1 civil war, 5 regime change wars. Hundreds of thousands killed.
It seems to me the Russians have quite a long way to go to catch up.
I guess now is good time to tell you that the Soviet Union (aka Russia) invaded Afghanistan and was unprovoked .
The Afhgan are more tribal then country. The Middle East cares more about their tribes, than borders. Except if you have oil.......then all bets are off.
Yeah or maybe his post was titled “Now he has openly declared - is Putin a far left terrorist?” and read:
“So Putin has announced and started his special military action.
one reason is to suppress neo nazis.
so Putin is Antifa - the darling of the left.
This seems to be a far left terrorist attack.”
Dang arbitrary snowflake mods.
Several years ago I was dining out with a date in a fancy restaurant overlooking the main street in Kyiv. I heard chanting and noise outside so looked out the window and saw a massive parade of men marching along, adorned in military uniforms, all giving Nazi salutes. There is probably no country in the world since July 1945 where real, actual Nazis have such an influence in society, as the Ukraine in 2022. And by 'real Nazis', I don't mean Conservative leaning individuals who are against mass immigration or who have reservations about 'trans women' being allowed to share toilets with young girls, or who refuse to kneel for BLM. I mean actual, real Nazis, who worship Hitler, dream of getting rid of the Jews, and establishing a 'greater Ukraine' that includes much of modern Poland, Slovakia, and parts of Russia. And remember, Russia did suffer at the hands of the Nazis quite a bit in WW2, remember?
But whatever you think Putin is left-wing or right-wing or anit-fa or a fascist, you have to be blind to think the current woke culture in the West is going to last much longer in the face of what is likely going to be an even bigger threat to its existance than the old Soviet Union was. It's going to be a very different world in 10 years time.
What is your point, exactly? Russia also has a large neo-nazi movement. I fail to see what you are getting at besides skirting around being an apologist for this invasion.

Good job idiot. So we just kills thousands instead? Nobody will die if we just ignore this crap and Europe will still gets its energy. What is your goal? Perfect mass chaos and death on a global scale in order to stop little Putin from moving an inch? It is a political ploy and game among globalist elites and should be ignored by normal people.
What's next after this? You just let Putin roll in to where ever he wants? Russia was not liberated for this. They actually kill people for what you're saying. Have you ever lived somewhere besides a Democratic Republic? It's not good. Guess what, Hong Kong is next.
Hong Kong won't fall. China cannot afford the controversy. You seem to think huge wars have a point. They don't for the common man, we only die when they get bigger. We don't need wars to make rich people more rich. No. Ignore this weak small move by Putin and move on. He won't go into unfriendly territory. He is not stupid.
US and UK intel has been on the money despite what the racist right wing nutters think
They hyped a prophecy and quietly launched provocations to make it self-fulfilling.
The biggest one, which went mostly unnoticed, was when Ukraine renounced its non-nuclear status. Normally this would alarm the entire world, which doesn't want more nuclear states. But all the hype made it seem reasonable.

Uh, Right wing not currently in charge. Piss pants Biden can't speak a coherent word. Russia and China doing what they want right now! I just watched the UK debate for 2 hours and nothing happened. There is more coming......this is just the beginning.

Quite possibly the stupidest of all possible interpretations. Congratulations, you might be dumber than carmine.

China can afford any controversy. It's coming, trust me.
Don't sit in your ivory tower and talk about a common man. Xi and Putin are evil men. I will not ignore this.
Stop trolling and get serious. Ask Europe and their energy needs. Going into Ukraine and needlessly killing people is the definition of chaos. Remember Putin trying to kill off his rivals there??? Look up 'Yushchenko' you f*cking Moran. That's the future. Good luck with nobody caring. Good luck.

We? Putin is already killing civilians. I get that you may be OK with this. But there is already 'mass death' and 'chaos' in Ukraine.

Lots of common men in Ukraine are about to discover a very unfortunate 'point' of war.

Apparently unaware that Ukraine did indeed do so.
From 2/19/22
Ukraine could give up its decades-old pledge to be a non-nuclear nation and reverse the decision it took to give up its atomic weapons after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned.
Further, US Sec of State Blinken said Ukraine is free to enter NATO.
Apparently not knowing these key facts makes this guy smart and those who know them stupid

My Great grandfather, my Grandfather, and my Father have fought wars to rid this planet of complete sh!theads. But go ahead and generalize about 'huge wars' (I don't even know what that means).

Well tell us WTF was the point of John Wesley Hardon's post? I doubt if thousands of neo-nazis have marched past the Kremlin lately. I know of no neo-nazi party in Russia that has won over 10% of the national vote as the Ukrainian nazi party (Svoboda) has. I also doubt that Nazi paramilitary organizations are fighting Russia's war, unlike the case for Ukraine in the Eastern disputed regions.
This is the most blatant act of naked agression in Europe since WW2. Putin has been in power for two decades and has never don anything remotely on this scale. No, it's not as simple as Biden being weaker than Trump, but you have to be completely in denial as a 'progressive' at this point not to admit that Russia and China now see the West as degenerate and weak. And it's thanks largely to the creeping woke culture, as well as the polarized divisions it's created. You know what? Whatever you or I think about radical trans rights or decolonization and #BLM, most of the rest of the world views it with a mix of utter contempt, revulsion, and hilarity.
You've posted similar things a few times already. How would rolling back trans rights stop Putin from walking over international borders? Should we abolish gay marriage to show him we're serious people?!
This is actual magical thinking
Straw man, I didn't say anything about rolling back 'trans rights'. It's way too late for that. Russia and China decided that the West was degenerate and sick even before extreme 'progressives' starting letting transvestites in to girl's dressing rooms and loos. Anyway, it will be fun to see how many of you triggered snowflake millenial survivors of misgendered micro-agressions will actually take to fighting a bloody war on the Eastern Front for your 'progressive' values.

The point of my post in question was to clarify why pupil3142’s thread on this topic was deleted, but this one was not, in response to the OP’s suggestion that this might be simply too weighty and consequential a subject for “snowflake mods” to handle.
