Why do you think NATO support is waning? They're staring to send fighter planes. The only cracks in the armor seem to be the upcoming US presidential election where the MAGA politicians seem to be pushing for surrender (using the same sick argument "to save Ukrainian lives").

NATO told him the deal 'wasn't going to fly'? NATO told him two things back then : a deal with Russia can't be trusted (take that as you want, Georgia is proof of this as Russia is just jept pushing for more and more land, peace deal or not) and, much more important : NATO would support their defense until the end if they had to. Of course the surrendermonkeys hated this and try to paint this as 'blocking a peace deal'.

If the Ukrainian government can't be trusted to decide on when to surrender, who do you suggest?

They really have a choice, but they would make less money (unless everyone did)

The analogy is that the invading country came to rescue their ethnic brethren. How does it 'make less sense' when it's correct that they had popular support in the region?

I'm sorry if these questions seem loaded to you, for me they seem like simple questions.

If you think Zelensky is forced by NATO and cannot decide for himself, why do you think he's travelling the world asking for more support and weapons than NATO is willing to give? Why not just fold?

I think the Ukrainians should decide what Ukraine does. The idea that their opinion can't be trusted because 'they were brainwashed by the CIA' is quite childish. Manafort made millions lobbying for Russian interests there.

Regarding your ethno-state reasoning: Do you believe the smaller Russian republics should be allowed to leave the federation? Do you think the Russian government would let them?

I see how I've given you an escape with the second question. I'm sorry you needed it

Sure that's one good example (although it's always a bit more risky if you're starting an armed self defense force). But you might just want to ponder a little bit on why you have to go back 50+ years for it.

Do you think Russia should decide what Ukraine does because part of its population feels Russian?

Yeah... Burps. Burps is better

Are you under the impression that the scientists moved to the US were given a choice?

Also, I don't really see how Gladio ties into this

The soviets lost the popular support they had in parts of Afghanistan after 10 years of war. They never 'ran out of troops'.

The US never 'ran of troops' in Vietnam.

What would happen to you if you started a tv show where you publicly talk about the crimes of your government? It might come as a shock but there are plenty of countries where you can do this without falling out of your window

Wait so you believe paramilitary groups were ethnically cleansing ethnic Russians in the Donbas in/pre 2014? Do you have any sources for this?

Do you believe Russia has meddled less in Ukraine than the US?

I've tried to see the fun in it but it's just so shallow I wouldn't be able to keep it up for more than... two days? The Dark Brandon thing seems like a great idea to make fun of how childish they are without costing more than 1 energy

Classic tankie behaviour - > rather Clankie

They could not be removed from Afganistan either. Until they were.

Ukraine can grind up Russian conscripts and free their country inch by inch if they have to.

Meanwhile the rest of the world can help continuing to destroy the Russian economy as best as we can

That's no problem, we call all learn new things every day. You can read about the history of Conrad Henlein (?) and the politics of the annexation to understand the analogy here

Well for one example: if you pose a real political threat to the regime, you get thrown into prison or out of a window
