But of course, your pathetic whining was a [[Pickett's Charge]] that accomplished nothing.  [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 19:18, October 23, 2023 (EDT)

::It's too bad that the Russians have not made better progress on the toilet front since Solzhenitsyn. Russia's corrupt keptocracy is making things more difficult for Russians. Why can't the Russians be more like Singaporeans? See:  [[Essay: Why A Westerner falling for Russian propaganda is like a man who is seduced by a corrupt 300 pound woman]].

:You're full of it. I read tons and tons of material daily, from all sorts of sources - 90 t0 95% of which I reject for sharing because of the source. Here's one from today, that was very good and interesting, but I had to reject simply because of its title. It's closing paragraphs immediately made me think of you:
 +
{{quotebox-float|"Not that the West knows what the word"war"actually means. The US and NATO do not understand they have started a world war-- or even that they are at war at all —because they cannot imagine what a peer level war would be like other than mushroom clouds.
 +
 +
All that the Western military knows is wargames. Which means that “war” is just a game to them.
 +
 +
All the Western public knows comes from Hollywood, TV—and video games. For them, war is entertainment.
 +
 +
Which is why the Western media keeps on talking about the possibility of World War III happening —the ultimate bogey under the bed— even though it has already begun—like all great evils — banal.
 +
 +
West Point fills the empty minds of its military students not with facts but with theories of war, based on World War I and World War I —without realizing that every world war is unique to the extent that the world in which it occurs is unique.
 +
 +
So it is that the US lives in a fantasy world. Europe seeks to forget. Trudeau is a moron but in celebrating Nazi war crimes in the past, he highlights his support for contemporary Ukrainian and Zionist war crimes—and reveals the lost soul of Western culture.
 +
 +
Russia does not forget. It remembers.
 +
 +
Its experience is recent and bitter. For it, “never again” means something.
 +
 +
Putin is realistic – the ultimate pragmatist – so his primary foci are economic, legal, and cultural.
 +
 +
As a martial artist, he also knows it is best to avoid violence – but at the same time to be prepared for the worst. He recognizes that the US is a narcissistic bully so has created conditions of military superiority to discourage it from accidentally creating a nuclear catastrophe.
 +
 +
Even then, that may not be sufficient-- he must always face the fact that the US is out of touch with reality. [https://julianmacfarlane.substack.com/p/russian-military-superiority]}}
