Pener Kropoopkin posted:"Denazification" means they're going to be targeting the far right elements of Ukrainian society & politics. That means for sure they're looking for Azov & the like, but they may also be looking to target members of Pravi Sektor and Svoboda. That doesn't mean they're looking to take out the government. Ukraine's government is legitimately elected, and whatever else you could say about Zelensky he isn't a Nazi. I'm guessing that the Russians will leave the Ukrainian government untouched, because they want legitimate officials to negotiate a ceasefire & an eventual end to the war. Setting up a puppet government would be too much trouble in the long run, because they'd have to deal with an endless insurgency and the war would never end. Yeah I think this makes the most sense

I assume it's the same brain geniuses that argued that Russia would join with US against China.

Xeom posted:All the Ukrainian blood being spilled is washing the hands of "the west" clean. Liberals are already going back to old talking point about "the west" spreading democracy. The blood craze is already returning to their eyes. We will invade someone now no questions asked and liberals will just look at you and say the word Russia. "The left" and anti war movement in America is already dead or on life support. With this, what little tattered remnants remained will be dissolved into nothing. With Russia specifically I think the deal is that a lot of liberals really hold onto the belief that Russia got Trump elected and 2016 broke their brains so badly that they'll never, ever forgive them for this.

I’m impressed by Biden playing brinksmanship by only putting Ukraine on the brink and forgetting the manship. hasn’t gone so good thus far

Tulip posted:the reasons countries go to war and the reasons people fight are pretty loving different and this post feels wildly out of place with your posturing as somebody with an education on history I mean, I’m on the other side of being disillusioned from being the best trained, best equipped, best educated whatever and getting rolled by a Pashtun farmer and some RDX, so my heart’s not in it anymore. It sounds great to bleed for your country until you do.

SexyBlindfold posted:I feel like there's a kernel of an idea in there, like it would genuinely go against PRC interests to set an international precedent that it's okay for major powers to unilaterally recognize separatist regions and use their human rights records as pretext for military action while the international community just sorta ho-hums and does nothing, but since the general rule at the White House is No Brains Allowed, it mostly boiled down to "c'moooon, you gotta, c'mooooon" if biden wasn't a total moron, if biden wasn't a total moron, my read on why you'd do something like this the us very obviously does not give a gently caress about what happens in the ukraine, seeing as they are not even willing to put into place the only meaningful sanctions, and so by extension the intel was functionally disposable too, and a good use for disposable intel is to leak it to somebody who you don't quite trust and see what they do with it, so the confirmation that china would tell russia about the us poo poo talking them is more valuable than anything else they could do with that intel. high school gossip test poo poo but biden is an absolute moron so i do not believe he was thinking that strategically (though i could believe that he did that, not to advance us interests, but as part of a bet with a staffer because goddamn he's an idiot)

Apparently France, Germany, and Italy are all on board with blocking Russia from SWIFT, but the US will probably push against it due to lobbyist influence. I feel like blocking Russia out of SWIFT will open a whole new can of worms. slave to my cravings posted:I’m sure this will go over well Officials are already responding to this and saying it's not NATO, it's individual NATO members making their own decisions. Still not great.
