School Me On This Russia/Ukraine Kerfuffle

[Blake P]

The End of the Oligarch Era Nears With Putin’s Miscalculation in Ukraine

Sanctions are punishing Russia’s wealthiest businesspeople—and the country’s leader—by bringing a cold, hard stop to 30 years of integration with the global economy.

They should be trying to oust Putin instead.

145 million Russians in the country.

Unbelievable. Wake up.

 

[friscostylez]

those who think the sanctions will work, what do you think is the probability it will work?

100%? 90%? 80%?

projected date/week it will turn things around?

 

[ballinsam23]

Do we have examples of sanctions working in the past? Probably not on this scale.

Last chance to get that Putin

Looks like a villain straight out of a James bond movie.

Sanctions won’t work because Putin doesn’t care. He’s 70 years old, the man has been waiting his entire life for this moment. He’s giving off “I have absolutely nothing to lose” vibes.

But the sanctions are still absolutely necessary IMO. Hits the Russian people hard and maybe, just maybe - this sparks a revolution (don’t count on it).

Maybe the meeting started out with a full tabel.

A lot of Russians are brainwashed. Idk about the younger ones probably not.

This lady told me Ukraine started the war and they are the aggressors and she was upset that Putin didn’t contact her here in America and let her know.

I just left that one alone.

 

[Coupé It]

It’s going to take a while to see if the Russian people react to sanctions, definitely won’t be an overnight thing.


These Russian chicks are living in some fantasy land where all they care about are Disney, iPhones, and Apple Pay, - while their neighbors are about to get mowed down…

Sounds like America really.

Look at how Americans reacted when they couldn't dine in at their favorite restaurants or had to wear a mask indoors during a pandemic.

 

[Coupé It]

I don’t disagree with that.

Absolutely ...

So if we were to invitate Canada and start bombing them and without regards .... why should the world turn a blind eyes because the american citizen are going to suffer? if we dont care and are worry about the wrong **** it's well deserved.

Make it uncomfortable for everyone ..... eventually theyll get it ... demand changes and/or flee like many. Or say screw you America and then, well, they deserve to be ****** with.

Nah, Russia don't want that smoke with us. Feel bad for Russia (the people) Ukraine, and the eastern European countries. I spent time over there and they LOVE the US (I am speaking of eastern European countries like Poland etc...) I see why this would infuriate folks like Putin . I am scared for my homies over there as well smh.

 

[Coupé It]

Maybe the Russians surprise us tho, who knows.

They’ve overthrown governments before.

 

[elpablo21]

You're better than me.

I would've been like "that's messed up he called me beforehand to give me a heads up and I'm not even Russian"

What if Russa

They say that Joe Biden helped get Zelensky elected

"Trump’s second request was that Zelensky investigate an unfounded allegation regarding Joe Biden’s motivation for pressuring the Ukrainian government in 2015 to remove Ukraine’s prosecutor general at the time, Viktor Shokin. According to a conspiracy theory to which Trump subscribed, Biden, while serving as vice president in the Barack Obama administration (2009–17)"

its all unfounded im just throwing that out there i got this from here idk if any of this is true or not because the impeachment took over all this and drowned out all that hunter biden stuff.

Ukraine scandal | Origins, Events, Aftermath, & Facts | Britannica

Ukraine scandal, U.S. political scandal that arose from Pres. Donald Trump’s attempt to coerce the president of Ukraine into announcing an investigation of Trump’s political rival Joe Biden and Biden’s son Hunter for alleged wrongdoing in connection with a Ukrainian energy company.

www.britannica.com

I would say there is something worth investigating here. But Biden pushed out Viktor the prosecutor who would of investigated this. Now Joe is president so that ship has sailed this is what i mean there are issues on both sides that led to russia moving in

When ever I come across stuff like this, I always ask myself if this were true and an entity was trying to cover it up, what would it look like? IMO a lot convenient things going back to Obama administration have fallen into place regarding Ukraine.

Hunter Biden’s laptop was dismissed as a conspiracy until it was Confirmed that it wasn’t. I’m curious why since it’s been proven as legitimate the contents aren’t being discussed.
