Looks like you have Strike 2 now after personal attacks and an attempt at doxxing. [3] If you wish to remain an editor in good standing and not convert this account into just another throwaway sockpuppet, I suggest you settle down and begin some productive editing when you return from your 2 day block. Thank you. RobS^{Let's Go Brandon!} 19:59, December 15, 2021 (EST)

"Would anybody like some more irony? There's plenty left if anyone can manage a second helping?"

FYI, User_talk:Aschlafly#We_need_to_recruit_editors. Best wishes (and maybe DFTT), -Sanny CptSandra (talk) 09:36, February 23, 2022 (EST)

I realised a while ago that Andy, Rob and Ben don't actually want more editors here, despite occasional protestations to the contrary. At first, I think it was a kind of stubborn if-we-build-it-they-will-come that prevented any serious effort at promotion & recruitment, but as the years rolled by, they just grew to really, really love defining their own reality with as little pushback or compromise as possible. ConwayIII (talk) 21:14, February 23, 2022 (EST)

I know nothing of Ben but I'm liking you already; Andy seems OK but I'm genuinely worried for RobS: invited to diagnose him, my cod-psychological pronouncement would be non-reactive psychosis, Hitlerian subtype. Is it me or is he obsessed by Nazism? Anyone that full of piss and vinegar must have serious problems off-line - I hope he feels able to reach out when the time comes. -S CptSandra (talk) 15:27, February 24, 2022 (EST) PS: He hasn't created [4] yet; if he does, might you second me in the debate? No pressure: I have a fallback, but I'd prefer it to be you. Could be fun, though I suspect he's not biting (in that sense, anyway).

At my current rate of spurious blocks, I advise you look for a more reliable presence in your corner. ConwayIII (talk) 16:07, February 27, 2022 (EST)

Incivility

Making personal comments about family members is little different than doxxing. Please refrain from that conduct in the future. RobS^{Let's Go Brandon!} 15:40, April 22, 2022 (EDT)

Southfront

Have you tried trolling the Southfront discussion group yet? My two favorites are NATO fags like high heels and lipstick, and BanderiteLivesDontMatter. I dont' think the username Bioweapons "R" Us is taken yet. C'mon, show some cahoonies now. You can run with the big boys. [5] RobS^Z

No need, man. I'm getting sufficient vitamin Z and practically OD-ing on fresh lunacy just from watching you smear your faeces all over the walls, windows & doors of Andy's formerly "Christian" and "conservative" wiki.

If he'll let you get away with posting this on MPR, you could probably forcibly teabag him in front of his wife, post a picture of the deed in place of the Conservapedia logo and still have him thank you for your service. Remarkable stuff. ConwayIII (talk) 17:57, May 23, 2022 (EDT)

BREAKING: NATO Member Turkey to Invade Syria. What's your take on this? Think Turkiye will acquiesce on Finland joining NATO in exchange for a little NATO help fighting Russia in Syria? How will the world react to another NATO war of aggression? RobS^Z 20:29, May 23, 2022 (EDT)

My take is Erdogan would love to never hear about the plight of the Kurds again and also to be given free rein re. the PKK and YPG. He's probably reconciled to not getting that, despite his rhetoric, and is angling instead for a reboot of the F-35 deal, plus Patriots. ConwayIII (talk) 15:04, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Patriots? He already bought the S-400 a few years ago (a superior weapon). That should have gave you a heads up there were problems within NATO and its wrong-headed "Russian Spring" designs back when Obama was approving Victoria Nuland, Samantha Power, Hillary Clinton, Jake Sullivan, and Antony Blinken's psychotic fantasies. RobS^Z 15:22, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

So, as NATO prepares aggressive actions against Transnistria and Lviv from Poland and Romania, Hungary declares a state of emergency. [6] RobS^Z 16:09, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Patriots. That's the current line out of Ankara, along with a hurt feelings claim they'd've never bought the S-400 if Patriots had been forthcoming when requested. No idea re. the truth of that, but it's an obvious way to frame it as a blunder by the Trump administration (2017) that needs fixing. ConwayIII (talk) 16:12, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Wait. Stop. Think momentarily (however difficult). If NATO exists to defend the planet against Russia, and Turkey, NATO's largest manpower constituent group purchases Russian most modern advanced weapons from Russia to defend Turkey against Russia, what the hell do we need NATO for, then? RobS^Z 16:37, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

So whom did Turkey purchase the S-400 system to defend against? RobS^Z 16:40, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

<hint> To shoot down F-35 aircraft of NATO ally Greece. RobS^Z 16:56, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

So again, why do we keep pouring $700 billion into the US Defense budget to keep the NATO house of cards alive? And no, the "Russian bogeyman" that created the alliance no longer is a valid excuse or response. RobS^Z 17:00, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Breaking: Kissinger tells WEF that NATO should throw in the towel. RobS^Z 17:03, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Erdogan doing stupid stuff isn't the knockdown argument against NATO you're looking for. He got rebuffed for latest-gen kit from the US, felt slighted, and went and petulantly bought latest-gen kit from Russia. Works fine by Occam's razor and fits well with his increasingly weird & cranky nature.

In other news, Kissinger reliably informed us there was zero chance of the Soviet Union collapsing. ConwayIII (talk) 17:12, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

Maybe Kissinger was talking about Soviet military power. The KGB went out of business in 1991, the GRU did not.

Ok, so some may say Turkish S-400 are for shooting down Israeli aircraft, theoretically yes, in reality no, not unless Turkey was building its own nukes. While there is talk of a joint Saudi-Egypt-Turkish bomb to counter Iran, would Israel oppose that? Anyway, we have no suspicions it's underway.

So, again, when you read years ago that Turkey bought Russian weapons to shoot down NATO aircraft, you should have had enough brains to realize then the NATO alliance was dead. And Obama killed it (wittingly or unwittingly; I think wittingly). RobS^Z 18:25, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

H. Kissinger being impressively wrong about stuff, Jan 14, 1988.

I've nowt to add re. motives for acquiring the S-400 and refer you back to my previous comments on Occam's razor and Erdogan himself. Feel free to keep spinning yourself another NATO-is-dead yarn, though. ConwayIII (talk) 19:40, May 24, 2022 (EDT)

A "Kissinger was wrong argument" makes zero sense in 1988 and even less sense now. It's like saying "FDR was wrong" or "Lincoln was wrong for freeing the slaves". These men shaped the world you live in. That's why we can't disentangle ourselves from China today, cause of Kissinger. Whattaygona do? Dig up his grave after they bury him so you can spit on him?

Sheesh, why do I waste my time talking with idiots.... RobS^Z 00:17, May 25, 2022 (EDT)

So somebody in 1988 says, "hey, it's probably not a good idea to establish trade ties with China," where are they now? Can they help us get baby milk formula now cause Chinese trade destroyed our ability to produce it? or they just wanna debate how wrong Kissinger was? RobS^Z 00:22, May 25, 2022 (EDT)

There's being wrong on points of detail; there's being wrong on some of the fundamentals; and then there's being dogmatically wrong about the entire direction of travel, despite an abundance of evidence to the contrary. It's a common problem with "realists" (cf. Mearsheimer) and seems to worsen as they age.

The idea of a state as some kind of entity motivated by rational self-interest re. wealth & power works fine until all those epoch-changing moments when it suddenly doesn't, and it's usually pesky human hubris or delusion that makes such a spectacular mess of all the theorising. ConwayIII (talk) 17:19, May 25, 2022 (EDT)

Good. I'm glad you understood my point. This is not an academic debate. This is the school of realism. Now, why don't your sources report on the imminent collapse of (a) the Ukrainian military, and (b) the Ukrainian state?

Bottomline: (a) The pre-2014 borders will never exist again; (b) there will be no negotiations, as the NYT, London Telegraph, Zelensky, Kissinger and others are calling for NOW, unless the RF agrees to sit down at the table. Do you really think Biden, NATO, the West, the EU, or UN can force Russia to the table now, or anytime this summer? Russia will come to the table when its prepared to sit down, and the Anglo-American "rules based order" collapses at that point, short of nuclear war. RobS^Z 17:42, May 25, 2022 (EDT)

My man, the ambition of the great Donbas "offensive" has been shrinking week by week, so much so that actually securing the remainder of Luhansk region would seem like something of a "victory". It's not, of course. It's a so-called major power bursting a blood vessel to try & take a small city like Severodonetsk. That's not going to send a chill down anyone's spine. ConwayIII (talk) 19:19, May 25, 2022 (EDT)

So emotional

You get so emotional about Paul Pelosi getting hammered in his underwear. I don't get it? It probably wasn't the first time. RobS^{Give Peace a chance} 22:39, October 31, 2022 (EDT

A quick note

Thanks for your kind words. The only reason I deleted your note on my talk page is that I have decided to be less forthcoming about my personal life off-wiki. It's better if people underestimate me. :)

"...when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near." - Sun Tzu :) Conservative (talk) 17:25, November 15, 2022 (EST)

By my count, there's probably 70,000+ more dead Ukrainians than Russians since we last talked. RobS^{Give Peace a chance} 17:50, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

Ukraine didn't have a rebellion with its own tanks going towards its capital. Russia did. Conservative (talk) 17:52, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

I called as I saw it with Surovikin in charge: a sensible fighting retreat to the 2014 LOC plus the land bridge. Might've even preserved some offensive potential for later this summer / autumn if it had worked, because Surovikin's not an idiot.

Instead, Putin reinstalled Gerasimov for a kamikaze tilt at Bakhmut that ultimately resulted in Leopards, Patriots, Storm Shadows (!) and F-16s (!!) for Ukraine and Prigozhin's recent thunder run at Moscow (!!!). As for what happens next, you'll know it's getting serious when the Ukrainians decide to drop the Kerch bridge. ConwayIII (talk) 19:24, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

What about Poland and Belarus? Anything gonna happen there? The Russians already have sabotage teams in Latvia, apparently. RobS^{Give Peace a chance} 19:27, June 27, 2023 (EDT)

Quint?

ConwayIII, you wrote: "Stalin was a sensitive man, eh? You're certifiable, Quint. ConwayIII (talk) 18:45, July 10, 2023 (EDT)"

What does "Quint" refer to? I know the 1975 shark movie Jaws had a character named Quint. He was the captain of the shark hunting boat.

Please let me what you meant by Quint. So far you have managed to stump me. Conservative (talk) 19:06, July 10, 2023 (EDT)

The war may be over before the F-16 and Abrams tank get combat tested against Russia's latest weapons, but for the record, the T-90 has withstood attack from the NLAW. [8] RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 20:29, August 19, 2023 (EDT)

And the next Republican president will strike a big, beautiful trade agreement with the UK! Then you can create the essay: [[Essay: The UK will become bigger, better and stronger than ever before! Russia and China will not! God save the queen!]]

And with Rishi Sunak's bigger emphasis on numeracy, the Brits will be better able to count all the riches!

P.S. I plan on visiting the UK. Maybe we will meet!

P.S.S. Pay no attention to Irish-American Joe Biden who has not struck a big, beautiful trade agreement with the UK. Conservative (talk)

Cheers, Ben. Happy to buy you a pint and some fish and chips if you ever make it over. If you've got sufficient time, you should definitely add Lindisfarne and Durham Cathedral to your itinerary and then hop over the Pennines and spend a few days in the Lake District. ConwayIII (talk) 19:24, August 23, 2023 (EDT)

I am pretty pescatarian (vegetarian plus seafood), but I make exceptions such as the holidays. I don't eat chips anymore, but I have pretty good persuasion/negotiation skills and can usually get eating establishments to do a substitute. During these days of rampant food allergies and health-conscious consumers, most eating establishments will accommodate their customers for requests such as these.

How about Shepherd's Pie/Cottage Pie instead of fish and chips? :) Conservative (talk) 19:34, August 23, 2023 (EDT)

Order whatever works best for you, man. If chips are the main issue, though, I can totally recommend a fish butty as an alternative. ConwayIII (talk) 19:48, August 23, 2023 (EDT)

No french fries or white bread for me. I gave up ultra-processed food and junk food. It's been great. The only downside is that I buy a lot of my food at a lefty leaning food co-op. :) I am not overly political so I am just joking.

Regardless, I do hope the USA and UK strike up a trade agreement.

Somewhat recently, I was booked several British authors for a leading podcast (In the top 1/2 percent of podcasts). Some of the British authors are notable (Bestselling authors, etc.). In addition, I was in the middle of negotiations with a British nonprofit to do some work for them and then the pandemic hit. Oh well, you can't land every deal. I do like doing business with Brits. They are unfailingly polite in most cases.

I am guessing I can go to Britain and write some of it off as a business expense, but I will need to talk to an accountant. Conservative (talk) 20:04, August 23, 2023 (EDT)

Question

Why do refer to a certain individual as "Captain Cauldron"? Conservative (talk) 20:49, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

It would be too much to explain. It has to do military strategy and warfare. Stick with psychobabble where you excell.

What's your obsession with me, anyway? I'm not that good looking. Besides, I want to be appreciated for my mind. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 20:54, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

He used the phrase "Captain Cauldren" today without explaining the term. There is certainly nothing wrong with intellectual curiosity.

As far as psychology, although social sciences such as psychology and political science are less reliable than the physical sciences such as physics and chemistry, they are not totally useless. For example, my Psychology 101 professor was a cognitive psychologist and thanks to people like him airplane cockpits are designed to be more user-friendly. I also know of a school psychologist in a special need children charter school who has helped a ton of children overcome learning disabilities and other cognitive impairments. I am also friends with a person who lived in a former apartment building I lived in who has schizophrenia and he has been helped by the drugs developed by psychiatrists/psychologists and pharmaceutical companies, but he also said that God and his Christian faith played a big role in helping him too. Every so often when I am in my old neighborhood, I say hello. Conservative (talk) 21:06, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

He's only been using it for a year+, but you being so narcissistic and self-absorbed in your vengeance plots, it's not surprising you don't pay any attention to other human beings or what's happening in the world. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:11, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

When someone posts about 20+ international relations essays on a website that another person disagrees with, it is not a vengeance plot. Please get a grip on yourself. Conservative (talk) 21:21, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

What are you talking about, this?

RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:25, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Targetted Sanctions, from a Moscow art exhibition.

By my estimation, those two sentences have motivated you to type over 1,000,000 keystrokes (1 million bytes) in well over 400 hours trying to walk back a dumb trolling statement from 18 months ago. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:27, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

My essay writing on international relations started when I noticed someone was being a China/Russia cheerleader and being anti-American. And proclaiming the fiction of a multipolar world.

User: NishantXaivier may have pointed it out first though. Conservative (talk) 21:36, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

There are no "cheerleaders" in a human tragedy; I'm sickened by your disgusting ramblings. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 18:19, September 15, 2023 (EDT)

Just as I suspected. Your reading comprehension and analytical skills are low. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:37, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Actually, besides User: NishantXavier, I think User: LT played a part too. He made me aware of the first quote below:

"IOWs, if you don't have anything positive to say about socialists and communists, just shut up, at least for the duration of the war. Read the bios of Bill Donovan, Frank Knox, and Henry Stimson. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you especially need to just shut up." - RobSGive Peace a chance 17:54, January 21, 2023 (EST)

"It won't happen until China and Russia break the back of US domination, first." - RobSGive Peace a Chance! 21:53, August 14, 2023 (EDT)

Anyways, to be more precise, sometimes you are aware of something such as a person's China/Russia cheerleading and anti-Americanism, but it takes you a while before it gets under your skin. Conservative (talk) 21:43, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

(ec) In April 2022, I was trying to warn that the Biden Junta was about to commit hari-kari with the whole of NATO and Western hegemony, but you chose to go with the "Putin bad" theory - that you have been bottle fed since Obama failed to steal Sevastopol Naval Base from Putin in 2014. You haven't even connected the dots that "Putin bad" is cause Putin made Obama look like a fool. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:46, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

First of all, I addressed your hyper obsession with April 2022 at: [[Essay: The SPECIFIC MONTH OF APRIL 2022 was not a pivotal point in politics that will affect politics for 30 years]].

Second, in a court of law, people giving testimony are told to "Give the whole truth and nothing but the truth". GW Bush, Obama, and Biden can be bad men as far as US-Russia relations, while Putin can be bad too. You are creating a false dilemma and strawman argument. Putin should have never launched his "special operation" in February of 2022. And I believe you might be able to [https://www.conservapedia.com/Essay:_Why_did_so_many_self-appointed_geopolitics_experts_miserably_fail_concerning_their_multipolar_fantasy%3F#A_major_ego-deflating_bonanza_of_self-appointed_geopolitics_experts_is_going_to_occur._It_will_be_a_popping_of_their_huge_egos_of_biblical_proportions.21 see that more clearly in 2030]. Of course, human denialism has no limits so I am not optimistic about this matter. Conservative (talk) 22:11, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Interesting. But I'd be fool if I wasted my time reading your Nazi agitprop. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 22:22, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Do you want to edit war some more over Chinese sewage eating?

RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 22:38, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Deny that the Chinese ate gutter oil made from ingredients from processed sewage and lose all credibility.

Consuming gutter oil can have negative consequences on people's health. According to experts, gutter oil is extremely toxic and riddled with carcinogens, like aflatoxin and benzopyrene. Consuming gutter oil can also lead to diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's and developmental problems in children.[9]

In 2015, Yeh Wen-hsiang, who was the chairman of a Taiwanese company, was sentenced to 22 years imprisonment and fined the equivalent of $1.6 million for selling 243 tonnes of gutter oil. And the mainland Chinese have begun to crack down on gutter oil sales more post 2010 too. However, "Food safety articles funded by PRC provincial science grants attribute continued difficulties in regulatory enforcement to the decentralized nature of the logistics chain, inadequate national infrastructure for disposal/recycling, and frequent innovations in visually and chemically disguising gutter oil."[10] Conservative (talk) 13:44, October 19, 2023 (EDT)

What are you referring to as far as the months of March/April of 2022? Conservative (talk) 21:30, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

Be polite. Show some mercy. I don't think Conway really wants to go back and review his predictions from last winter about the Ukraine counteroffensive. I'm not asking him to do so, and you should show some respect, too. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:35, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

After calling the retreat from Kiev and Kherson and your boys' general ineptitude re. expeditionary warfare, I'm pretty happy with my record to date. The Sevastopol dry docks say hi, btw. ConwayIII (talk) 16:42, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Brief note on the withdrawal from Kiev: the advance on Kiev with 40,000 troops had primarily 2 purposes (40,000- men is not enough to take a city of 3 million; they would have needed a force of 300,000): (1) to force Kiev into the Istanbul negotiations; (2) to retrieve nuclear material that the Kiev regime had collected at the Gosomol Airport from the Chernobyl zone which could be used, or had already been assembled into, a dirty bomb. Shortly after the capture of the airport, the Russians began their withdrawal from the Kiev region.

Here's why retrieval of the dirty bomb scenario is plausible: Americans always prioritize capture of landing fields and strips to transport in more men and material (for example the attack on Donetsk Airport in April 2014 or capture of Kandahar in Afghanistan in 2002); the Russians did not do this, signaling no intent to escalate the situation around Kiev. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 12:39, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

The Chronicles of Captain Cauldron: Gentleman & Diarist

Rob didn't handle the humiliating retreat from Kiev very well. As a result, he got very excited about Putin's switch to an offensive in the Donbas, which was supposed to capture the entirety of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions. Rob fondly imagined this would prove Russia did, in fact, possess a fearsome war machine capable of expeditionary warfare at scale, and perhaps stop me laughing at him.

If it had worked, the entire Ukrainian Joint Forces Operation (JFO (>100k troops)) would have been encircled in the Donbas, thanks to grand sweeping pincer movements from north & south.

Russian TV got very excited, too, and the evening bulletins featured maps showing projections of what this would look like.

Rob - idiot, madman or shameless Putin-fellating liar that he is - took these projections as actual facts on the ground and declared the Donbas cauldron closed and the JFO catastrophically defeated.

One small (tiny!) problem: this never happened.

The pincers stalled both north & south and the JFO never came close to being encircled.

This bonkers lie is still available for public consumption in various parts of his fan fiction about the war.

Despite months of teasing, he categorically refuses to correct it.

Idiot, madman or liar. Take your pick... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ConwayIII (talk) 16:42, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

You appear to have read Christian apologetics. Your trilemma reminds of C.S. Lewis' "Lord, liar or lunatic" trilemma concerning Jesus Christ.[11] Conservative (talk) 17:01, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

By the way, concerning your above claim, what Conservapedia pages are still not corrected in your estimation? Conservative (talk) 17:14, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Conway: one other tiny problem, the Russians never intended to take Kiev. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:15, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

RobS, is Conway's claim true about you not correcting some of your pages on the Donbas Couldron relative to something that never happened? Conservative (talk) 17:18, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

What do you understand about maneuver warfare? RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:25, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

60,000 AFU troops have been destroyed in the Bradley Square cauldron in the past 90 days, if you want to call it that.

Doogie Doo-Doo Alert! Keep your nose out of things you don't understand, especially if you have malicious motivations. I'm like Trump or Putin, I hit back twice as hard. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:28, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Classic cauldron warfare calls for total encirclement; in the Mariupol cauldron, the city exists on a lake. With ISR, mass troop movements today are almost impossible. So the Russians encircle on 3 sides in a kill zone, and let NATO keep feeding in fresh meat for the meatgrinder. So NATO is learning some lessons, hopefully.

Ukraine's 2023 battle plan to split the Russian forces in half modelled after Gen. Sherman's March to the Sea in the American Civil War.

This is the most gleefully bonkers. It's so unhinged it even features tactical maps from May 2022 which directly contradict the TV maps / projections from March and April 2022. ConwayIII (talk) 17:34, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

We'll see, if the Russians take Dnipro in addition to Kharkov. It may take 3 years, but it forms up as a classic cauldron. With NATO not having the resources, and the US & EU ready to back out, this scenario in the near future appears increasingly likely. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:38, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

That map is no different than the map at the right, which Nazi cheerleaders still have people like you and User:Conservative believing is happening right now. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:40, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Now here's the facts: NATO had 120,000 NATO trained troops, nearly half of AFU forces, on the Donbas line of contact since April 2021 showing aggressive intent against civilians and military. Russia responded in February 2022 under Article 51 of the UN Charter, allowing collective defense. Within three weeks, half of the AFU forces feared encirclement. Zelensky ordered a call up of forces and expansion of Ukraine's military. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:55, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Pay attention, man: if I say the Red Sox won in the World Series in 2022, my error is not corrected by them winning it in 2025. I'm confident a 6-year-old could grasp this. Feel free, though, to continue positioning yourself as lacking the cognitive firepower of a small child. ConwayIII (talk) 18:01, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

That map is simply a contemporaneous report of perceptions of the situation at that point in time. Zelensky would not have done the call up and expansion of the AFU if NATO & Ukrainian military intelligence did not fear developing encirclement in a cauldron.

Now, the perception and understanding of the limits of maneuver warfare was a later development by both NATO & Russian military analysts. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 18:11, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

It is only in the past 3 months that a consensus has emerged, after a yearlong debate, that "big arrow offenses" are a thing of the past. IMO, that remains to be seen; after destruction and collapse of remaining AFU forces, in the absence of any diplomatic efforts, we are very likely to see some Russian "big arrow offenses" from the north. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 18:17, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

I see. Bonkers lies are Good Things Requiring No Retraction as long you can point to sufficient Russian TV "vibes"? Good luck with that. ConwayIII (talk) 18:54, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

The debate about "big arrow offenses" arose among analysts in both camps last year. Russian commentators were probably quicker to say it's a thing of the past (some claimed they were just making excuses), but it appears NATO commentators now are coming to the same realization, only not all yet.

As I said, I'm still not convinced entirely; some might argue advancing enmasse after the total defeat of an enemy in the field is not really an "offensive", but in the absence of a diplomatic settlement or formal surrender, it should be considered as such. And that may be where we're headed. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:20, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Remote mine laying equipment (the Russians call it 'Agriculture') has revolutionized warfare. It provides no escape for an advancing force, effectively creating a 'cauldron'. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:31, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

The CRUX video above doesn't explain it very well. The Russians herd an advancing force into a kill zone surrounded on 3 sides, and then use remote mine laying ('Agriculture") to sprout mines behind them, preventing retreating forces from exiting, and re-enforcements from entering, the kill zone. It is effectively a cauldron, without using troops to close the trap. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:41, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

All of which is fascinating, no doubt, but we're talking about a specific "big arrow offensive" which very obviously stalled shortly after your declaration of victory and which has since seen its northern pincer completely obliterated. ConwayIII (talk) 19:45, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

I never declared any kind of victory. Zelensky & NATO crapped their pants and expanded the war effort out of fear of being caught in a classic pincer movement. Good bluff on the Russian side, seeing their aim was to de-militarize NATO, if necessary. It worked.

What we have here is the classic, "No plans survive 15 minutes first contact with the enemy".

Give human beings some credit - they never stop coming up with ingenious new ways to kill each other. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:51, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

ConwayIII, you seem to be saying that RobSmith has still not retracted an error. If this is true, I don't I feel missed out on anything by reading little of RobSmith's content.

Just to clarify, is there a retraction or retractions that still that still need to be made? If so, what page or pages need to be corrected and in what sections? Conservative (talk) 20:11, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

From this particular bit of his fan fiction, the 2nd paragraph needs to be nuked from orbit. The March and April maps need to go, or have the captions completely rewritten. I can dig other mentions tomorrow. ConwayIII (talk) 20:24, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

What's wrong with the second paragraph? Doesn't it chronicle the lying Russian state media propaganda apparatus? RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:01, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Here is the source. Everything has to be verified from that source before any changes are made. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:04, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Okay. I have reread the original source link. There's nothing wrong with it. The AFU was indeed trapped in a cauldron, before any NATO equipment or mercenaries showed up. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:15, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Yep. Re-read it a second time. That piece, The Russian military intervention in the Ukraine – a macro view - March 09, 2022 stands for its historical relevance. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:34, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

This excerpt summarizes the view or the author at that moment in time, which by every indication was borne out by factual reality, and has not changed to this day (and was primary basis for NATO provoking the war):

"My fear is that the United States and Joe “Biden” have decided that the best thing for them is to have as many dead Ukrainians as possible. And that is not a means to an end, it is the end: have as many Steppe N*ggers and Snow N*ggers kill each other. This is the West’s sole and entire plan for the Ukraine: (example from CNN)

Turns out, the people in the CNN fake news report of the maternity hospital bombing attest NATO/Ukraine bombed the hospital, not Russia. That fact was not known to the author at the time he wrote the piece. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 21:41, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Excised map from The Russian military intervention in the Ukraine – a macro view - March 09, 2022 with text [1]

OK, man: specific dates, specific locations. Your fan fiction claims the cauldron "closed" on March 14, 2022. Your boys on the northern pincer were still fighting for Izium on March 14. Since the southern pincer never really got going at all, your cauldron is over 100 miles short of being "closed".

Serious question: just how stupid does a man have to be to try & run with such obvious guff? ConwayIII (talk) 18:35, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

All I'm saying is the specific meaning of cauldron warfare, as understood in March 2022, was reported by that source. It's meaning or understanding has evolved since to include remote mine laying to complete encirclement, not just manpower. And the Donbas cauldron itself is still (my point) in development. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 18:48, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

No, man. This is your reporting and that makes you responsible for the accuracy of the sources you choose to include. If you rely on an obviously shite source, that makes you an obviously shite reporter. That's just how it works. ConwayIII (talk) 19:05, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

(ec) At right is the source map, with text, of the situation on March 9, 2022 when Zelensky begged for mercy and requested the Istanbul peace talks. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:08, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

At that moment in time, March 9, 2022, half the AFU, 120,000 men, were effectively cut off - their Airforce had been destroyed, and their supply lines were under the control of Russian artillery and air power. Zelensky begged for mercy. An operational pause ensued. Negotiations in Brest and later Istanbul established humanitarian corridors and prisoner swaps. Putin began withdrawing from Kiev as a gesture of good faith based upon the Istanbul peace talks which revived the Minsk Accords. The US Congress voted $60 billion in aid, and by April 2 the peace talks fell through. Larger packages of NATO arms began arriving. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:21, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

What's your point, man? The map bears no relation to what actually happened. You could draw one yourself and claim your boys wrapped up an entirely successful SMO by the end of Feb. ConwayIII (talk) 19:23, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

The solid red lines show Russian advances in two weeks; the solid blue lines show AFU positions. The dotted red lines show areas under Russian air and artillery control. This is effectively a tactical cauldron. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 19:29, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

No. That map and your guff have no more bearing on strategic reality and historical fact than when Trump took out his Sharpie and tried to "prove" that Dorian was totally forecast to hit Alabama.

In case you've forgotten, the VKS were - and still are - famously incapable of flying the kind of massed, deeper interdiction strikes that NATO AFs take for granted. Your boys get modest close air support along the front lines and that's their lot. And you don't get any "fire control" of an area from occasional standoff strikes with cruise missiles air-launched from hundreds of miles away.

And in case you've forgotten this, too, the Msta-S tops out at just over 20 miles when firing rocket-assisted shells.

Even taking your guff seriously for a moment, just for the sake of argument, you've got a ~60 mile hole in your "cauldron". ConwayIII (talk) 13:15, September 15, 2023 (EDT)

3 weeks after Russia and Ukraine had agreed on Russian withdrawal from the Donbas and to implement the Minsk Accords, and the peace talks proceeded to arms reduction negotiations, BoJo snuck into Kiev unannounced and told Zelensky not to finalize the deal cause the NATO cavalry would ride to the rescue. And there was a $60 billion payday to boot.

That was the situation on March 9 as the Kiev regime felt tactical encirclement. The first round of the Ankara peace talks occurred on March 10. Zelensky had requested the peace talks. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 16:50, September 15, 2023 (EDT)

The 60 m gap you allege was covered by Russian airpower. There was no Ukrainian airforce left. The AFU could not be supplied with fuel for retreat or fresh drinking water. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 16:57, September 15, 2023 (EDT)

120,000 troops - half the Ukraine army - were trapped in a tactical cauldron on March 9. Zelensky cried "uncle" and asked for peace talks. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 17:02, September 15, 2023 (EDT)

Sure thing, Captain. And a length of pipe is a tactical bucket and up is down and you're a historian and absolutely definitely not a deeply weird old man drunk on the smell of his own farts and lies.

Maybe there's some money in it for you eventually when the last of the Z-head deadenders get desperate enough for their very own vatnik QAnon. "Trust the plan!" you'll tell them. "Enjoy the show!"

ConwayIII, "As for the men in power, they are so anxious to establish the myth of infallibility that they do their utmost to ignore truth." - Boris Pasternak. Conservative (talk) 20:51, September 14, 2023 (EDT)

The article has about 1,275 page views. If you are right about "fan fiction" (RobSmith seems to be admitting it is "fan fiction"), do you think this is causing some readers to quickly click off the page and certainly not recommend the page to others? If so, why do you think RobSmith hasn't made the correction yet? I ask because people usually create content so other people read it. Conservative (talk) 20:51, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Quick note to RobSmith: Are you saying that the "fog of war" is largely responsible for the discrepancy or that the Western media was either intentionally/unintentionally misreporting? Sometimes when it comes to historical events, there are conflicting reports and sometimes it is not due to malice. So the careful historian has to carefully weigh the evidence. In addition, unfortunately in war "truth is often a casualty" and there is propaganda on both sides.

Personally, given that I believe that the war of attrition could drag on for years, I am not going to be following this war super closely in terms of the battles. In addition, my interest in geopolitics has waned and will likely continue to wane. In addition, I would rather be a contributor to various events rather than be largely a spectator to events. So I am not going to be a good referee when it comes to this content dispute.Conservative (talk) 21:25, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Second note to RobSmith: Your source appears to be merely some blog run by some unknown blogger. Here is an excerpt from your blogger from the source you cited: "My fear is that the United States and Joe “Biden” have decided that the best thing for them is to have as many dead Ukrainians as possible. And that is not a means to an end, it is the end: have as many Steppe Niggers and Snow Niggers kill each other."[12] This certainly does not appear to be a reliable source.

Admittedly, I haven't investigated the issue of this battle, but I can't say that I am sympathetic to your position on this matter. At this point, I would lean towards User: ConwayIII's position. Conservative (talk) 21:35, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Reply that the author of neocon Essays favor Ukraine and/or Nazis in the war in Ukraine

Not looking good. Recall only the Nazis & US use blitzkrieg tactics. Maybe that's why neither one can win a war.

I am not a fan of Ukraine or Russia as I believe they are both corrupt and authoritarian regimes. The war is causing casualties and economic damage to both countries which is very bad since both Russia and Ukraine have a demographic crisis and this war is making their demographic crises worse. The war is also causing economic damage to Europe and USA taxpayers. And it is restricting the food supply to the world. I hope the war ends soon, but it appears as if it could go on for years. Conservative (talk) 18:01, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

ConwayIII, do you believe that a Chinese economic crisis would make it harder for Russia to fight the war at some point since Russia sells oil and gas to China? If so, when do you think this will happen?

Also, war spending can be very inflationary. Vladimir Putin says that inflation in Russia is making it 'practically impossible' for businesses to plan, Business Insider, 2023. Conservative (talk) 18:11, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Here's one of your ideological kinsmen: Pyramid of Far-right Radicalization leads to DEMOCRAT-BACKED AMERICAN NEO-NAZIS IN UKRAINE. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 18:31, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

At the end of August, I realized that my interest in international relations would soon wane to a certain degree. With the Chinese economy beginning to have significant problems and likely declining a lot more, that certainly could mitigate the influence of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and their newfound ally the Kremlin.

At the same time, in terms of its effect on Christendom, this could be a bonanza for the Chinese Christian population. Xi JingPing, whose administration is persecuting Christians, might lose power. We might even see the end of the CCP in the 22nd century or early 23rd century should Jesus tarry. Of course, things are hard to predict when it comes to politics in China. For example, if Xi JingPing is replaced, it could be by someone even worse who persecutes Christians even more.

Also, if Putin loses power sooner or Kremlin influence wanes in Russia, since the Russian state does get involved in religious matters and favors the Russian Orthodox Church, maybe there will be more competition within the Christian church sphere which could cause Russian churches to up their game so Russia's moribund church attendance figures might see a rise.

So this is certainly something to keep in prayer. Conservative (talk) 19:01, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

Russia doesn't have the pipeline infrastructure to sell much gas to China and it'll take years to build enough to compensate for the loss of EU markets. Significant slackening of Chinese oil demand would be much more damaging.

As for the likelihood of a major economic crisis, China probably has more than enough stashed in its sovereign wealth fund to stave off any immediate disaster. The trick is to intervene in ways that don't further destabilise an increasingly dysfunctional economy that's staring down the barrel of some ugly demographic trends. I don't think they've figured that out yet and they're likely reluctant to pull the trigger too hastily.

Perhaps that means they end up moving too late, but in the short to medium term, my money's on cushioned slowdown rather than epic crash. ConwayIII (talk) 19:34, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

An international relations analyst says that if Russia's Siberian oil production goes down, it would freeze up means of production and cause significant damage to Russia's Siberian oil production. I wonder if that might occur if Russian oil sales to China goes down?

"For most of the post-Soviet period, energy officials in Russia have resisted OPEC entreaties to participate in production cuts to help prop up oil prices, arguing that doing so was impossible because of the country’s cold climate.

This week, confronted by a gusher of unsaleable oil and no place to put it, Russian energy executives unveiled plans to reduce production by a fifth by shutting down wells, many of them in the Arctic. Not eager to share the burden of shutdowns with OPEC, the Russian government long maintained that curtailing production was not as simple a matter for them as it was for the desert oil kingdoms. Supposedly, wells drilled in permafrost could not be shut down, lest they froze, requiring them to be drilled all over again when they were reopened." - NYT, 2020.[13] Conservative (talk) 19:44, September 13, 2023 (EDT)

ConwayIII, you wrote: "my money's on cushioned slowdown rather than epic crash.". While this may happen, I think there are signs that the slowdown/decline will happen faster than you think. See: [https://www.conservapedia.com/Essay:_The_rising_rule_of_communist_idiocracy_in_China#China_has_likely_peaked_arguments China has peaked arguments]. Conservative (talk) 16:36, September 25, 2023 (EDT)

The biggest risk China faces is probably Xi's determination to install himself as Dear Leader for life. Does bad things to a man's brain. ConwayIII (talk) 18:42, September 25, 2023 (EDT)

Xi JingPin's love of communism is very bad and will make things worse. On the other hand, a lot of what is going to happen in China is the result of prior bad decisions and they will be impossible to reverse. But there are a lot of Christians in China right now and the fervent Christian Chinese population will likely increase with time for a significant period of time.

Here is the dilemma. Communism causes problems that necessitate reforms. But reforms undermine communism.

Marxism is a Western idea with not very long roots in the light of China's very long history. Hopefully, it will fall in my lifetime in China. The Soviet Union eventually collapsed suddenly. So you never know. Conservative (talk) 18:53, September 25, 2023 (EDT)

A victim of my own campaign's success? If true, it is ironic.

ConwayII, I do believe in religious freedom and noticed that homosexual activists were restricting religious freedom. So I did some modern-day muckraking relating to the issue of homosexuality that drove a lot of traffic to Conservapedia. In addition, I wanted to drive traffic to Conservapedia in order to gain an audience to my future articles on atheism.

I discovered so much muck in my muckraking that I think it had an influence on Conservapedians and the owner of the website. And now Putin's and Xi's anti-homosexuality views are seen as a license for them to break God's other commandments - which of course, it is not. Conservative (talk) 22:00, September 12, 2023 (EDT)

It's bizarre

Someone brought up RobSmith with me today.

I wrote this in reply: Shortly after waking up today, I thought about how weird it is for RobSmth to love Russia. It's like a guy falling in love with a 300 pound woman. If I were to pick a country outside the USA to very much like/love, I would pick Singapore.

"Singapore's safety and low crime rate make it an attractive destination for expats, as it provides peace of mind and security for those living and working in the city-state. The country is considered one of the safest places in Asia, and it is a great place for expats to raise families." [15]

There is far less social dysfunction in Singapore than in Russia. Conservative (talk) 14:43, October 14, 2023 (EDT)

Wow. "provides peace of mind and security". You'd think our resident geopolitical expert of the Haushopher School of Realism and Holocaust revisionism would know something about Caning in Singapore. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 15:00, October 14, 2023 (EDT)

Singapore has low crime and a highly educated population. A far higher percentage of Russian men die of alcoholism or other self-destructive behaviors in Russia than are materially harmed by caning in Singapore. "In 2021, life expectancy at birth for women in Russia was about 74.77 years, while life expectancy at birth for men was about 64.21 years on average."[16] In 2020, life expectancy in Singapore was 83.74 years (2020).[17] Also, "The average life expectancy of males in Singapore is 80.7 years. The life expectancy at birth for males increased from 70.1 years in 1981 to 80.7 years in 2022, an increase of 15.1%. When we compare male life expectancy with a decade back (79.8 years in 2012), it increased by 0.9 years."[18]

The national life expectancy numbers don't lie and it's impossible for you to sweep Russian society dysfunction under the rug.

Also, consider this: Russia Facing 'Critical' Shortage of Police: "Corruption is also taking a toll. A police major from the city of Tomsk said that officers are "beating confessions out of people, inflating arrest quotas. We're seeing this all the time. It's only going to get worse. There will be falsification of evidence, targeted beatings. There just isn't going to be time to investigate anything properly."

ConwayIII, I trust this further clarifies a very clear issue. Conservative (talk) 20:56, October 14, 2023 (EDT)

"To take a look at how and where such a minimal standard of welfare design has been implemented successfully, one need only look at the city-state of Singapore. The Singapore welfare system is considered one of the most successful by first-world standards. World Bank data shows that Singapore’s government health expenditure in 2015 is only 4.3 percent of GDP, a small fraction in comparison to other first-world countries—16.9 percent in the US; 11 percent in France; 9.9 percent in the UK; 10.9 percent in Japan, and 7.1 percent in Korea—while achieving comparatively equal or better health outcomes of low infant mortality and higher life expectancies. While most of Europe, Scandinavia, and North America spend 30-40 percent of GDP on social welfare programs, Singapore spends less than half as much while maintaining similar levels of economic growth and a society relatively free of social problems."...

By compelling Singaporeans to save, welfare in Singapore has traditionally been internalized first to the individual and the family/grassroots level. This forms the crux of the government’s “Many Helping Hands” social policy where the role of the family and immediate community in welfare provision is emphasized over government-funded programs. Such a form of privatized charity is neither new nor unique, as a wealth of research shows how mutual aid societies predated modern welfare states in the 20th-century United States and the 19th-century United Kingdom.[19]

Singapore has the 2nd lowest infant mortality rate in the world - so it is much better than Russia in this respect as Russia has about a 400% higher infant mortality rate.[20]

In addition, Russia has the highest abortion rate in the world.[21]

Question: If Russia's societal system is so good then why do Singaporeans live so much longer than Russians? The proof is in the pudding!

I trust this further clarifies a very, very clear matter. Conservative (talk) 21:31, October 14, 2023 (EDT)

Thanks for you recent feedback and some information you might be interested in. Also, Conservapedia's Dunning-Kruger effect article

Thanks for your recent feedback concerning my writing which I requested. I appreciated your positive feedback and your pointer on how I could improve too.

Also, I added some additional content to the Dunning-Kruger effect article. It's an interesting topic and it shows the importance of having self-awareness and why it's important to improve both your weaknesses and your strengths. Top performers such as Olympic athletes improve their strengths and weaknesses which increases their overall performance.

In addition, I know you are interested in politics. I just added this information to the essay at [[Essay: Why did so many self-declared international relations experts miserably fail concerning their multipolar fantasy?]]: "Question: Did you know that is very doable to be a better forecaster in terms of politics, economics and other future events? There is a great book on this matter by the political science writer and political science professor Philip E. Tetlock entitled Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction which has some fascinating information based on the reviews and videos I watched concerning this matter. And the book has received a lot of positive reviews by various people involved in forecasting.

No worries, man. Happy to help. Here's to a reality-based media diet and dealing with the world as is. ConwayIII (talk) 19:13, October 17, 2023 (EDT)

I recently came across this: Ground news - 50,000 sources. See: Ground News - YouTube. Rates stories by right/left leaning as far as coverage.

But I realize there are more dimensions to news than merely right/left. For example, East/West, national, etc.

I also come across this information written by someone with an IQ of 150+ regarding VHIQ (Very high IQ people) and UHIQ (Ultra high IQ people) which I alluded to in an email:

• 1. VHIQ inclines towards binary either/or thinking and taking sides. UHIQ inclines towards probabilistic thinking and balancing between contradictory possibilities.
• 2. VHIQ seeks understanding towards application or justification, UHIQ seeks understanding towards holistic understanding.
• 3. VHIQ refines the original thought of others, UHIQ synthesizes multiple original thoughts.
• 4. VHIQ rationalizes logical conclusions, UHIQ accepts logical conclusions. This is ironic because VHIQ considers itself to be highly logical, UHIQ considers itself to be investigative.

While I realize that there is more to understanding things than just IQ such as knowledge, wisdom, moral development, etc. looking at things intelligently does apply to understanding politics.

For example, in WWII you had the Nazis vs. Soviets. In this conflict, you had two bad parties against each other so #1 above would apply. Given that I think that both Ukraine/Russia are both corrupt/authoritarian to varying degrees (which is not surprising given their shared cultural/historical past), I can't say that I am a partisan on this issue. I would just like the war in Ukraine to end as quickly and peacefully as possible.

Maybe someday I will take an IQ test. :)

But first, I am working on improving the below factors:

What is IQ or intelligence?

When we use the term intelligence, we usually refer to academic or cognitive intelligence. Cognitive ability is defined as the mental capacity to do the following:

• Storing and retrieving information
• Problem-solving
• Reading
• Abstract thinking
• Reasoning
• Complex idea thinking
• Planning
• Learning from experience[22]

I am in the midst of covering some material on memory improvement, creativity, problem solving, etc. Conservative (talk) 19:45, October 17, 2023 (EDT)

The smartest people I've come across generally display the following:

1. Natural curiosity
2. Discernment re. quality of sources / inputs
3. Strong analytic processes
4. A willingness to accept conclusions thus derived, even when it conflicts with their priors
5. The ability to accept complexity and nuance, even when it renders their conclusions more vague / less useful than they were hoping

Is it too early to do a post mortem?

Here's one, expressed fully, that I've been saying for more than a year already:

"Ukraine was defeated by its own Western propaganda.

After the very military-strategically brilliant and gutsy move to pullback Russian forces from Kiev last year in order to shorten lines and concentrate all forces in a much smaller area, the Western pro-Ukrainian propaganda mills went into overdrive. They thought Russia was ‘on the run’ and had hoped that they could deliver a final “finishing blow” by way of propaganda, which would collapse Russian societal morale and lead to some kind of overthrow that would end the SMO.

But these people sadly knew very little about military doctrine or strategy. What Russia did was carry out an absolutely simple and pedantic textbook reorientation of forces with a clear logic. In fact, that moment should have been an extremely chilling maneuver for Ukraine. It should have signaled: “Uh oh…this means Russia is taking its gloves off.” The initial thunder-run on Kiev was merely a brazen attempt to avoid bloodshed and see if the conflict could be ended fast and early. But not having worked, Russian military planners clearly knew that now the entire operation had to be shifted into actual war footing, rather than mere enhanced special operations raid.

Everything changed from that point on. Pro-Ukrainians should have keyed in on this and realized the heavyweight was now removing his gloves. But instead, what they did was run with the propaganda that Russia is a defeated, cowardly, inept, and completely helpless paper tiger. This propaganda “worked” incredibly well, too well—but the problem is, it worked on the wrong side.

Instead of convincing Russians of it, it convinced the Ukrainians and Western public that the war had already been won, that Russia could never recover from this brutal “loss” (which was not a loss in the slightest but a strategic maneuver and concentration of forces). Since then, no one in Ukrainian society thought to take the war seriously anymore and Ukraine’s own “rear” end had dropped out, while Russia’s rear in fact throttled up into overdrive, in terms of the galvanization of society to supporting the troops and military machine top to bottom.

Now, the most aware pro-Ukrainian pundits are desperately trying to steer their flock back to rational thinking—but it’s too late.

In fact, this will be studied for generations as an example of a massive propaganda fail—a propaganda campaign which destroyed its own side by way of inadequate attenuation and nuanced micromanagement of perceptions. They instead did a bruteforce method of flooding every which way without concerning themselves with who the propaganda was actually negatively affecting.: [23]

One for the history books, as we write the narratives. NATO thought it could win the war on propaganda alone. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 04:26, November 2, 2023 (EDT)

The advance on Kiev served two purposes: (1) to retrieve the elements of a dirty nuke fabricated with Chernobyl waste being assemble at Kiev's main airport; (2) to pressure Zelensky into the Istanbul negotiations where he caved into Russian demands to implement the Minsk Accords with a few additional demands. Even after Zelensky saw how Biden told the Afghan National Government to "fake it" when they were getting their butts kicked, Zelensky fell for Biden's messenger boy, Boris Johnson, promise to stay in the fight with $60 billion bribe. Greed was Zelensky's motivation for betraying the peace deal negotiated with the Russians, not national pride, honor, or democracy, etc.

The Russians never had any plans to assault the city of Kiev, population 3 million, with a 40,000 man force. That idea is, and was ludicrous.

Moral of the story: Beware of propaganda. It can be deadly. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 04:39, November 2, 2023 (EDT)

Of coarse Chinese manufacturing would shrink as it loses the US market and prices at Walmart rise; however this is compensated for by increased drone, artillery, cruise missile and other military equipment (which the US, EU, and NATO cannot compete with cause they have no manufacturing base left nor an educated workforce with skills to operate factory machinery) production then supplied to Russia and Iran via North Korea. But User:Conservative still thinks this is 1991 and there is no war. He's yet to grasp the global changes that were apparant in April 2022 when NATO rejected diplomacy and decided to escalate war with Russia.

I agree with Prof. John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago who preaches the Realist school of international relations - there is no going back to March 2022. We cannot underestimate the scale of the disaster we created for ourselves. RobS^{Give Peace a Chance!} 03:12, November 1, 2023 (EDT)

Don't think I didn't notice that you failed to provide actual evidence that China's loss of manufacturing out is "compensated for by increased drone, artillery, cruise missile and other military equipment". Because I did notice. And what is even crazier about your claim is that any military hardware manufacturing is manufacturing and China still had a manufacturing drop.

Please read: [[Essay: February 2022 might prove to be a pivotal moment in the future of global politics]].

Let me know what you think. I am a big fan of the French historian Ferdinand Braudel. Conservative (talk)

One partial explanation on why I am less "Putincentric" and less focused on the war in Ukraine than a certain Conservapedian

• Fernand Braudel

• Annales school of history: "Annales school, School of history. Established by Lucien Febvre (1878–1956) and Marc Bloch (1886–1944), its roots were in the journal Annales: économies, sociétés, civilisations, Febvre’s reconstituted version of a journal he had earlier formed with Marc Bloch. Under Fernand Braudel’s direction the Annales school promoted a new form of history, replacing the study of leaders with the lives of ordinary people and replacing examination of politics, diplomacy, and wars with inquiries into climate, demography, agriculture, commerce, technology, transportation, and communication, as well as social groups and mentalities. While aiming at a “total history,” it also yielded dazzling microstudies of villages and regions. Its international influence on historiography has been enormous."

Questions: 1) Does User: Conservative have a French heritage? 2) Is User: Conservative a fan of Fernand Braudel ?

King David wrote: "Those of low estate are but a breath, those of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath." - Psalm 62:9 (NRSV).

Long live the Annales school of history! Vive la France! Conservative (talk) 20:50, November 13, 2023 (EST)

Ahh, these guys were a bunch of socialists, ya know. But that's ok; User:Conservative's mind is so brainwashed and polluted at this stage, it doesn't really make a difference anymore. RobS^{Get thee behind me, Satan} 23:58, November 13, 2023 (EST)

Once again, User:Conservative's brainwaves flat line.

"Under Braudel’s direction the Annales school acquired a global reputation for promoting a new form of history. It replaced the study of leaders with the lives of ordinary people and supplanted the hallowed trio of politics, diplomacy, and wars with inquiries into climate, demography, agriculture, commerce, technology, transportation, and communication, as well as social groups and mentalities. Annales history further challenged the reductionism of the Marxists and the structuralism of the social sciences, its main competitors at the vanguard of postwar historiography. It aimed at a “total history” that relied heavily on quantification and also yielded dazzling microstudies of villages and regions. Braudel’s most significant contribution was his three-tiered view of historical time. Conceived while he was in captivity in 1944, it consisted of very long, practically immobile environmental time (the longue durée); the medium time of economies, societies, and cultures; and the short time of discrete events (the subject of histoire événementielle). Far from a simple flow, human experience was registered on all three clocks, operated with speed-ups and delays, and left a vast range of physical as well as mental traces."[24] Conservative (talk) 00:20, November 14, 2023 (EST)

Okay Mr. Ace Researcher: both Febvre & Braudel lived and worked under the Vichy regime; show me an original source document (in French or any other language) that explains where and what these guys were doing in the timeframe of 1940-1944, and by what means they were supported. It shouldn't be too hard, mapping the history of historians. RobS^{Get thee behind me, Satan} 12:09, November 14, 2023 (EST)

So if you can't prove they were associated with the Comintern or getting covert U.S. funding aid, then they must've have been Nazi-collaborators with the Vichy regime through a state-funded educational institution. RobS^{Get thee behind me, Satan} 12:16, November 14, 2023 (EST)

With Braudel, you are attempting to use the guilt by association logical fallacy in spite of the fact that I gave you actual evidence via Encyclopedia Britannica (namely the Annales school of history "challenged the reductionism of the Marxists"). Your guilt by association logical fallacy tactic fails miserably when the rubber meets the road. For example, you tried to make the businessman [[Bill Browder]] a hardcore communist, but that crashed and burned when you couldn't find a single source. Also, your fallacy of composition "reasoning" is equally a big failure. For example, just because I cited Zeihan about Russian demographics means that I necessarily agree with everything he claims and that I don't understand some of his weaknesses like his overreliance on geography, demographics, economic factors and his other faults (The same applies to Mearsheimer who I also don't agree with 100%).

But your greatest weakness is your lack of integrity which displays itself by making things up that you know are lies (Gossiping, Bill Browder is allegedly an avowed communist, and there are supposedly multiple sources that claim something when you know there are not such as the Karen Dawisha article). Everyone knows you are a liar and that is why you are not respected (But is also due to your abusive nature). And just when I thought you could go no lower than being a pathological liar, you surprised even me by transforming yourself into a high school girl-like gossiper with idiotic, far-fetched gossip so now I see you as being pathetically weak. As a result of your lack of integrity, you often engage in denialism (historical revisionism, etc.) because once someone lies to others prolifically, they naturally lie to themselves prolifically as well. Your attempt to whitewash Ivan the Terrible and Vladmir Putin are great examples of this as is your attempt to make Russia, which has low church attendance, big problems with alcoholism/AIDS, high divorce/abortion rates and a low fertility rate into some kind of holy nation. In addition, you pretend that Peter Zeihan is the only person whose work I cited about Russian demography, but that is untrue as evidenced by my citation of the Russian demographer Salavat Abylkalikov (See: [[Essay: Russia is dying out. The war in Ukraine is making Russia's demographic crisis even worse]]</nowiki). I can accept cold hard truths such as US/Western foibles/weaknesses, but you can't do the same with Russia and China because you engage in self-deception and denialism. For example, show me a nation that dramatically turned around its low fertility rate into a replacement fertility rate in the 21st century. You can't do it. The highest correlation with a replacement level of births in a population is religiosity and Russia is obviously not a holy nation. In addition, your grasp of logic, critical thinking, statistical analysis, economics and cultures is substandard as well. My biggest mistake concerning you was interacting with you too much via talk pages, etc. I am not going to make that mistake again.

RobSmith, Google Scholar indicates that there are 373,000 search results for the term "Russia demographic crisis". And as you can see above, the Russian search engine Yandex shows search results for "Russia demographic crisis" too.

Peter Zeihan was just the tip of the iceberg! Now get on your hamster wheel and start creating an article on the Russian demographer Salavat Abylkalikov who also says that Russia has a demographic crisis. And then start creating articles on all the other people you find on the various search engines who say the same thing. And if you go to your local library and your librarian finds material indicating that Russia has a demographic crisis, then create a Conservapedia article on your local librarian.

Get busy because once you embrace falsehood it can take a lot of work to get rid of the nagging feeling that you are embracing a lie.

Any student of geopolitics and diplomacy would be familiar with this exchange as the Soviet Union was courting the Peoples Republic of China as partners in their proxy war against the United States in Vietnam. Mao told the Russians they'd have to wait 1,000 years to settle the differences between Russia and China.

By the way, I saw in the recent changes log that RobSmith posted a comment to one of my previous user talk pages to you. Obviously, I did not read it. In our private emails, please don't tell me what he wrote. I don't do RobSmithism anymore - even for entertainment purposes.

But please let me know if Russia drops a nuclear bomb or two (or even three or more). You have my permission to do this.

And tomorrow and until 2030 or possibly 2035, I will not be looking at other political news with the exceptions of presidential election day results and news about Israel once in a while (My very successful friend who is generous with others rarely looks at the news). I may update my essays on China, Russia and the USA on 2030/2035 though. And of course, I will not be responding to RobSmith tomorrow or evermore since I don't do RobSmithism anymore due to its unedifying nature.

Let the username of RobSmith be not seen by me from every talk page of Conservapedia or page of Conservapedia. Let the username of RobSmith be unseen or unheard by me for all time. Let the username of RobSmith fade from my memory quickly so I think about RobSmithism less frequently than the topic of homosexuality - which is a subject I think about rarely!

I sent you an email about not responding to past user talk page post to you about a country that has a demographic crisis and is in a war of attrition due to a special operation that was launched by that country. A war of attrition that is making their demographic crisis worse.

Hopefully, the citizens of that country will sober up long to realize that their culture is dying to a lack of being fruitful and multiplying.

Feel free to enjoy their some of the work of their past great novelists or any of their other past cultural achievements. Cheers. Conservative (talk) 00:21, November 15, 2023 (EST)

My posting frequency to your talk page in the future will likely be minimal. And my emails to you will be less frequent as well. RobSmith and I have an unofficial detente now.

Donbas cauldron

They're losing 2,000 men a day. How long do you want to keep feeding human beings into the Donbas cauldron? Election Day, November 5? Do the math: 4 mos = 120 days x 2,000 = 240,000 more dead Ukrainians. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 03:12, July 12, 2024 (EDT)

• Cauldrons in Donbass. Zelensky buying time, hopes US enters conflict.

Ok, I was wrong. There isn't a single cauldron. There's multiple.

Hey, weren't you supposed to be back here in April 2023 to prove me wrong? Whahappened? RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 17:53, October 10, 2024 (EDT)

To capture Odessa, the Russian will need to cross the Dniepr north of Nikolaev (formerly Mykolaiv).

One of the greatest chess players of all time and world politics

Garry Kasparov can win chess matches quickly when he has many more chess pieces on the board.

But Putin and his generals have struggled in Ukraine - despite Russia having a much bigger population than Ukraine. If only the Russian military wasn't so corrupt!

I recently found out that Russia could have had a peace settlement in April of 2022, but they spoiled it by making a very unreasonable change in the peace agreement during the negotiations.

And according to Donald J. Trump, Russia's economy is now a "disaster". And I would go so far to say that Russia is no longer a major power.

In the past, I worked as a computer programmer. You might be aware that the Deep Blue computer beat Garry Kasparov at chess.

Behold the computer programmer geniuses at work at Google AI!

• What are the arguments that Russia is not a great power?: "Arguments against Russia being a great power focus on its limited economic and technological capabilities, coupled with a history of impulsive foreign policy decisions and internal struggles. While Russia possesses a significant military, it lacks the economic and technological strength of true great powers." Conservative (talk) 13:34, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

Survival of the fittest is a famous phrase coined by British economist Herbert Spencer in Principles of Biology (1864), which he used to summarize natural selection. He relied on the phrase to reinforce his theories on the development of companies and societies in general.

The concept became a foundation of the eugenics movement, which sought to eliminate "less desirable" people. The phrase also went on to promote harmful ideas such as Social Darwinism and fascism.

More American computer programmer genius in the AI field. Yankee ingenuity at its finest!

The Roman Civilization lasted about 2,200 years.

• What are the arguments that the American civilization lasts longer than the Roman civilization?: "Arguments that the American civilization will last longer than the Roman civilization often point to factors like America's democratic system, its robust economy, and its geographical advantages. Additionally, some argue that America's capacity for innovation and adaptation are key to its longevity, while the Roman Empire faced internal and external pressures that led to its decline. Here's a more detailed look at these arguments...".
