I hadn't seen that. Awesome.

Ukraine is winning the back end stuff. Air, sea, oil. Front line, Russia is slightly eroding Ukraine territory. What has exactly been delivered vs promised? What has been delivered unadvertised?
Just jumping in here to regurgitate something discussed several times in this thread—Putin essentially acknowledged publicly around the time of the invasion that one reason was Ukraine’s new policy of structural changes against corruption. Many good articles out there on this journey Ukraine is taking (and please xyz don’t further degrade your credibility with a snapshot take on where Ukraine ranks on the corruption scale).

Regardless of UKR NATO membership and how his blunder has strengthened NATO, and the bullshit quasi-GOP posturing against Western woke values enhanced by craven religious leaders, it’s always seemed to me that a thriving Ukraine making strides toward a legal and governance system that kept corruption to a low level (say, Germany’s) would be an existential threat to Putin’s carefully crafted oligarchy.
Russia just threw a missile at Odessa and missed barely.
Trump has definitely emboldened them.

how can so many people screech something so fucking stupid and have people even pretend to respect them? The issue is Russia doesn’t want peace talks, Russia won’t commit to terms of peace, and Russia won’t abide by the terms. So it’s fucking meaningless. So eat shit.
Lol I love it when naive motherfuckers confidently spout tired old Soviet cliches like they're some sort of high moral truths the world has never heard.
He'll be quoting Dugin before much longer, and handwaving every treaty since WWII in support of imperial fascism. WWTD?
Thing is, people who have never been critical thinkers are fucking rubes for the first bit of sophistry they encounter, and since they lack the critical tools to dissect an assertion, they usually latch on to it unreasonably. This is how Tucker Eliot Inverness Swanson-Carlson IV adds value to right wing media, btw - pilling truck drivers and secretaries with GEDs. .
An article shows, how the gas pipeline through Bulgaria paved the way to attack Ukraine.
The article is from last September but still shows how corrupt the ex pm of Bulgaria was.

Follow the money, or just follow Putin to make it easier.
If Pootin had grownup balls he would have the courage to step up and pay Trump's many fines and judgements before November. Rudy's and Eastman's too.
Bet he wouldn't run for President there, would he?
This is as stupid as saying that France, Poland or England needed peace talks with the Nazis. The Russians haven’t offered peace talks and they are the aggressor. How are you going to have peace talks with an invader that openly says they want to conquer a country?
Why is it you empty headed cunts never say what a peace deal would look like? You bray mindlessly like Ukraine could get favorable terms if they would just enter peace talks, yet there’s zero evidence this is true.
I feel the Russian "wave" hit a high point a few days ago. Low tide a coming.
Blah blah blah. Putin is a nazi. Trump is a nazi. Everyone who thinks different than you is a nazi. Yawn. Putin told Tucker he wants peace, both on and off camera. You can choose to believe him or not.
Anyway, Ukraine is never ever gonna win this war. Never. Even with NATO troops on the ground. Russia’s war machine has just been warmed up and is now firing on all cylinders. NATO troops are soft and distracted. The only way to end this war with more war is full scale nuclear war. Are you expecting that to result in only Russian death?
The only way out now is through peace talks. Compromises have to be made. It won’t be perfect for the Ukraine but it’s better than more Ukraines sent to the meat grinder and a nuclear world war. I’d rather have the borders shifted around a little in the Ukraine than billions more dead. YMMV.
If fascists like xyz have their way there will be more nuclear proliferation, not less. If fascists like xyz have their way there will be more killing in Ukraine, not less. Russia is fighting on behalf of dictatorships all over the planet making the world less safe.
‘let the fascists win’ is foolish because Putin told Tucker he wants all of Ukraine and to erase Ukrainian identity. After the interview Dmitry Medvedev gave a speech saying the concept of an independent Ukrainian identity must "disappear for good." Putin reiterated the point in another interview just last week.
As for peace, the Kremlin is already setting the stage for war in another European country. Russian foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister, Mikhail Galuzin also recently used the same rhetoric against Moldova as they did against Ukraine before the February 24, 2022 unprovoked military invasion to threaten & destabilize the country in order prevent its integration into the EU.
Because an ‘independent’ Ukraine means a Ukraine loaded with NATO nukes pointed at Russia. Imagine if Russia set up nukes all over Canada and Mexico. Would America be the war mongers if they pushed back?

Ukraine is independent so drop the scare quotes. In the post above xyz argued peace meant having the "borders shifted around a little" only now just one post later he's arguing on Putin's behalf that there can be no independent Ukraine: xyz is just another fake anti-war fascist showing his true bootlicking colors.
^^^Or a troll…
Or based on his posts in other threads a Canadian skinhead... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
