Sergg posted:Yeah if I were to throw out an offhand clinical diagnosis Putin is obviously a sociopath. I would say he has narcissistic traits but probably not full-blown NPD because having narcissistic traits is just a common endpoint of being rich and powerful for decades, and a sociopath would long-term self-select for people who won't challenge their dominance, so you also end up surrounded by yes-men. One of the big tells, aside from unnecessarily assassinating people & poo poo, was the KGB assessment that he had a reduced threat response, which is a classic trait of sociopaths to have a reduced fear response to threats, which causes them to engage in excessively risky behavior. Which Hogwarts house do you think the sorting hat would have put Zelensky in?

My wife just became part of the most office email chain I've ever seen. She works for the botanical garden's scientific publications division, which does a lot of technical and professional publishing for botanists globally. The garden director sent an email wishing luck to a Ukrainian colleague who will be out of communication for a while "defending the priceless Ukrainian herbarium." Then the colleague replied all with some bloody pictures and the text "Territorial Defense helped patch me up and stop the bleeding. Banshees are howling tonight. I don't give a gently caress. Army are heroes. Forward this to the office." Again, this is a botanist.

I just lol at the folks that get legit upset about people celebrating things like the Ghost of Kyiv, Snake Island, etc. while knowing that they are either non-factual or embellished. The people of Ukraine are being brutalized and murdered by a lovely villain, don't get upset that they and those who support them find joy and resolve in stories of heroism.

Those people need to read the chapter of The Things They Carried where he discusses what a true war story is. Also they need to shut up.

It only makes sense for Ukraine to surrender immediately. One of their other talking points they have is "Ukraine is going to lose because all their war-making industry is either lost or too under threat to produce, meanwhile Russian war-making potential is intact and they can churn out an endless horde of tanks." So does anyone here have any hard numbers on how long it takes to produce any of Russia's heavy military equipment? Also, don't a number of them rely on specialist parts produced outside of Russia that aren't accessible anymore because of sanctions? Also how long does it take to train up a crew to actually work one of those tanks adequately anyways?

Ve must expand ze lebensraum for ze glory of our people. Ve must liberate our peoples trapped when our previous governments stabbed us in the back!" The rhetoric has hit a fever pitch, the miniature mustachioed menace is beet red while advisors look on muttering in confused Russian. One slides a snickers all the way down the long table like a chocolate shuttlecock. Putin appears, "Sorry about that, I dont know what came over me. Pull back all troops." He then gets up and rides out on a horse.
