If the LGBTQ community outrages you and your offended then you have a problem with peoples lifestyles. Killing civilians and the war atrocities being committed in the Ukraine are not and is not about a lifestyle, it is about a sadistic murdering psychopath named Putin and his condoning the brutality and torture his troops are inflicting Supporting this war criminal only shows ignorance. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ukraine takes up a huge chunk of former USSR territory and Ukraine becoming aligned with NATO would mean that Russia would lose Ukraine as an allie . NATO would only help Ukraine if Ukraine joins NATO and Ukraine has been becoming aligned with NATO and may eventually join NATO , which would take huge chunk of former USSR territory and would become a security threat to Russia .

That´s not a rule of law world order. So Putin doesn´t like it. How far do you want to go when we talk historical claims? The vikings long time ago, called the Rus people, founded Kiev. Long before Russia existed. So that means Sweden can claim Ukraine? Forget Nato. It´s just Putins wet dream of inventing an enemy to justify an attack on sovereign Ukraine. In a law based world order Ukraine decide themselves who to associate with. It´s just not Russias business. But Russias problem is they have no pull factors to other countires then naked violence. It´s a losing game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what the war is about Putin doesn't want Ukraine as an ally. He wants them as puppets/slaves or dead. He has said clearly that he doesn't recognize Ukraine as a separate nation and wants to crush Ukrainian national identity. As most Ukrainians have that his intentions are genocidal. Absurdly he equates Ukrainian national identity with Nazis. His Russ fascist vision is Russian empire and again he's been clear without Ukraine there is no Russian empire. Tragically Putin sees the prospect of losing Ukraine as an existential threat to Russia. Meaning he will never accept losing. Meaning if he feels he's losing he becomes even more dangerous to the world. Edited May 2, 2022 by Jingthing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with Religion or Nazi Germany . Its 2022 , not 1945 Neither of those 'reasons' are true. Little vladdy the small (nickname for Richard) psychopath is just an insecure putz who thinks his land should control a greater swath of the planet, despite not even being able to produce a good life for what he already has inside his current borders. NATO expanded BECAUSE of the manner in which the former ussr---which putin wants to rebuild--- dominated and oppressed all of the nations that have subsequently become NATO members. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Walker88 Posted May 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2022 More and more russian dissidents---people who know putin---are suggesting that he is such a little wimp that if he fears losing the war and losing face, he will start a nuclear war and began the elimination of all human life on the planet. putin is that insecure that such a loss of face wil have him do the equivalent of 'take my ball and go home'. The only saving grace is that like most autocrats, putin is a coward. His 30 foot tables are a perfect indicator of his cowardice. More and more folks are suggesting putin must be eliminated. I would think there have been back channel messages to those in the russian hierarchy who are viewed as sober and rational, suggesting they take out putin before the world ends. As an aside, the world has to take some serious steps to eliminate the threat of nuclear weapons in the hands, or under the command of irrational people. The US was lucky enough to have had Gen Milley in the last days of 45, as those on the inside thought 45 might actually start a nuclear war with China (even the Chinese govt suspected this might happen, as they had a good handle on the personal insecurities of 45) in order to have an excuse to remain in power 'during an ongoing crisis'. Life is too precious to allow anyone to have control over weapons that can send our species into extinction. There MUST be more safeguards, since total elimination of all nukes is never going to happen. Anyone who thinks they are immune from the Ukraine war and its effects are deluding themselves, because nuclear winter, if it comes, is going to take you out, too. We are at an Extinction Level Moment. The russkis running around with 'Z', or any of them who support the psychopath putin, are idiots and clowns, deserving of nothing less than outright ridicule. Frankly, if the nuke war starts, I will be happy to utilize what time I have before the radiation hits here and takes me out, sending as many of those louts to hell ahead of me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the gopnik sitting in Pattaya with a Z on his shirt has killed Ukraine civilians or committed war crimes. But maybe he has and he is on R and R. As the war stretches on into its second and third years you should expect to see more Russian soldiers coming to Pattaya to chill out. Thailand is one of the few remaining holiday destinations where Russians are not just tolerated, but welcomed wholeheartedly. For the record I have no issues whatsoever with the LGBTQ community. Two of its members I regard as among my closest friends. It may prove useful to also note here that one of my oldest and closest friends is a Russian. He has a genius IQ and a doctorate in Quantum Physics. I shared a house with him as lad in Australia while he was completing post doctoral studies at UNSW. I chatted with him earlier this week and he has just applied for a job with NASA. To be clear I do not support Putin and am sickened by what is happening in the Ukraine. And yes, having a Z on your shirt in a foreign country is irrefutable evidence that you are either malevolent or a simpleton. But let us not get all worked up over someones choice of clothing. That is a slippery slope at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
