Russian special military operation in Ukraine #17

It's not his fault the "serious", "bright", "well educated", and "respected politicians" at the Kremlin failed at the wheel in 2014 (and much longer before that). A mockery of suffering is what ensues with clowns at the helm.

A failed propaganda video of Ukrops has been circulating on social media sites. They were shooting a scene where Ukrop troops are shown fighting against Russian invaders.

In short, he says that Russia is killing it in the field, but considering Russia's strategic aims of de-nazification and a neutral Ukraine, taking the Donbass, all of it, and even incorporating it into Russia could still be considered a strategic defeat.

I don't necessarily disagree. Even if Donbass is clear, Ukraine would be more Nazi than before the war considering the only legal party in the country now is the Nazi party led by Zelensky. And its more Nato than before because the west has poured billions of weapons in.

This means its more than likely that Putin and the Duma will be constructing the legalisms for a mobilization and a full attack on Kiev in the coming days. The attack wont be in the coming days but the legalisms to do the attack will be visible. So we have to watch for that.

I don't disagree with Scott on the strategic points. Which is why Russia must mobilize and dissolve the kiev regime.

Anyway what I do disagree with him is the bullshit about the super duper 50 billion in arms and how this is almost the size of Russia's military budget. This is an absolute crock. Its again the non PPP sharade. Russia is not a USD bloc economy so you have to use PPP. You have to. Its not a choice if you want actual data.

Russia's defense budget is 170+ million dollars. Almost the same as the UK, France, Germany and Holland combined. So non PPP numbers actually under state the Russian budget by almost 3 times over. Which is why propagandists love it.

It's the tribal nature of the dimwitt to forcefully box the opposing views into that simple to understand narrow view otherwise their head would explode from the conditioning of the propaganda the other side feeds daily. It's amazing to watch. More so how highly of themselves they belief to be  (projecting to others their adopted opinions which are mostly talking points propaganda borrowed from thought leaders). Special little things. Cognitive dissonance at its finest, and worst.

The moments of hype are fleeting. London exerts control as it always has.

We could roll a casino dice on the subject tho...

As for Ritter....well....

It was kinda funny how the mob turned on him for a few not long ago after he made some claims... now back to the honeymoon phase again. The desperation is real for affirmation and validation. Think for your own, and you won't need the Scott Ritters/Sakers/Durans/Pepe's/Mr. Bs/ and the rest of the clown car to sell you fairy tales so you can sleep good at night. It's extremely healthy and freeing.
