what if we destroyed russia as an entity and created 50 new republics all based on nationalism isnt this a good idea

yeah it's always worked out great when Europe comes in and carves out a bunch of new states by drawing arbitrary lines on the map and telling the locals that this is their country now and they better like it

Its great actually. Not so much when they start getting uppity thinking their material condition is more important than our geopolitical goals.

This thread has taught me that my assumptions about Nafo were all wrong: they aren't a bunch of teenagers getting their first taste of imperial propaganda, they're grown rear end men with jobs and children.

You're exactly right, the sensible grownups are in NAFO, the insane basement dwelling internet people are against it. Also Marjorie Taylor Greene and Elon Musk.

Anyways, I'd like to remind everyone that this is the Ukraine meme thread, some discussion is allowed but there's been too much lately, reel it in and post more memes instead. Here's a funny one:

Makes sense, the system worked relatively well for you, perhaps it colored your perspective on the world.

It makes sense people who would be the most supportive of a hegemony directly benefit from it.

When you're not furiously googling for my posting history so you can post out of context bullshit I posted on this website, you're straight up making poo poo up because so you can own me on the internet.

Fact: The US spent a shitload of money trying to rebuild Iraq, it went poorly.
Fact: Russia will try to do the same in Ukraine but with less resources, it will also go poorly.

It turns out if you kill someones child, they don't really a give a poo poo that you built a new school or fix the water treatment plant you destroyed. In the case of Ukrainians they'll get a case of frozen fish or a new Lada.

Maybe you can make 10 more posts about how I worked for a contractor a decade ago but still somehow get a warcrime residual check for all the good work I did in a dark lab in the mid aughts.

The purpose of a system is what it does. The U.S. didn't spend a shitload of money to "rebuild Iraq" they spent a shitload of money to enrich their friends and donors. It did not go poorly, they got exactly what they wanted!
