I have yet to see anything that would change my mind even in the slightest that Finland joining NATO was an excellent idea.

Sorry, I meant that joining NATO was unironically an excellent idea and nothing has changed my mind about that.

:lol: that Joe loving Biden of all people has destroyed Putin's Russia and cowed China into submission without firing a shot, because their own state media gave the entire loving regimes brainstorms about how unstoppable and manipulative the US is.

This REALLY doesn't feel like a stunt by Wagner alone. There might be all kinds of powerful people from the civilian parts of the state and security forces on his side, who have not revealed themselves yet. Doubt it that if Progozhin goes down it would be over.

This shady ex-convict drove his Nazi war crime squad all the way to the outskirts of Moscow and only two or three helicopters fired on him. Doesn't seem possible that he's alone in this.
