Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
Re: Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
What about this then for a scenario - You may have seen the new post "Myanmar to reopen to international tourists" is it welcome to the civil war zone for a short-experienced holiday, thinking the junta will keep you safe. I think people in general are tired of the pandemic and have the deep urge to travel. How about we keep up the scenario, instead of its people fleeing its borders to safety. what if the Ukraine opened its doors to international tourists, and thus flooded those areas with holiday makers? What would the answer be on the Russian side, would the fighting stop because of the fear of harm to these multicultural peaceful visitors?

I quite like this Russian guy's thread on Quora

A great insight into Russian society by a funny guy with a sarcastic tone
He's moving all his writings into his personal website, soon to be open

Re: Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
A today's post from the guy above :
" Supermarkets in Russia sell cabbage “quarters” as many citizens can’t afford to buy full-size cabbages anymore.
At the beginning of April 2022, people in Moscow remind me of a patient who has received a stage three cancer diagnosis from his doctor, and for the next month goes about his ordinary life in denial, barely noticing the first signs of the disease.
Russians are not yet at the stage of economic chemotherapy, and walk about as if nothing’s going on, trying to look upbeat and unconcerned despite rapidly rising prices.
Do you know why there is no guns and ammo left in Moscow gun stores, and in the police departments men line up to receive gun licenses?
Moscovites expect 150,000 Russian soldiers to return from Ukraine shortly and start marauding on their streets.
In 1905, soldiers that returned from the Japanese War started a revolution.
In 1917, soldiers that returned from World War One used the guns to overthrow tsar’s regime.
In 1989, soldiers that returned from the forever war in Afghanistan formed gangs that led to gangster capitalism of the 1990s when businessmen were killing each other with AK47 and bazookas.
In 2022, soldiers that had survived annihilation from the most advanced Western weapons, will unleash violence in Moscow and elsewhere in Russia that will make “Crazy 90s” look like a walk in the park.
Massacre of civilians in Bucha has shown that Russian soldiers are in a very bad psychological shape. Let’s not split hairs, many of them have become psychopaths from horrors of war, and the disturbing part it has happened very, very fast that they might not be aware of the changes, which could be fundamental.
Russian soldiers have been blown up and torched by modern anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons, shot at night by Ukrainian snipers wearing advanced thermal night vision goggles, their wounded comrades were shot in the heads by the Kadyrov militia, their bodies were abandoned and eaten by stray dogs, because the state refused to pick them up, while they were killing other native Russian speakers, Slavic Orthodox Christians just like them, while being told that they are Nazis.
The US hasn’t even tested their switchblade kamikaze drones and anti-ship weapons on them yet, while Putin hasn’t used biological, chemical and small tactical nuclear weapons. This madness can still be dialled up to the levels where human minds can’t deal with it and get short-circuited.
Additionally, another 140,000 Russian soldiers will be thrown into the meat grinder, and therefore the number of the soldiers with permanently damaged psyche returning to the civilian life might equal that after the Afghan War.
Russian soldiers have raped women, killed civilians, and plundered apartments and houses sending packages from Belarus to their wives with the loot.
Imagine, those guys who had seen hell with nothing to lose are unleashed upon the streets of Moscow and Saint Petersburg.
They see luxury vehicles and mansions of oligarchs, ATM machines stuffed with 5000 ruble notes, and the police and National Guard who are used to kicking old women in the stomach and dragging students over the asphalt roads.
In a likelier event, cops and National Guard will gang up with Ukraine war veterans to form bands to loot everything in sight and kill competition. It’s also going to be a zero sum game as West tightens up sanctions.
Simultaneously, the returning soldiers will tell Russians that there are no Nazis in Ukraine, and that they were sent there to kill other Russians, no different from them. The collective reaction of Russians is wholly unpredictable.
On February 24th, Putin opened the gates of hell.""

Re: Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
And quite rightly so.
"In this painting, Kopeikin , safe in emigration, drew a giant Ukrainian man stomping retreating band of marauding Russian soldiers clutching washers, toilets and sacks of potatoes.
This fall, millions of Russians will experience famine like at the end of the 80s, but this time the West won’t send them any humanitarian aid like they did last time due to their barbaric behavior and savage war they unleashed in Ukraine.
The starving unwashed of the glorious empire will be handed over to the enterprising Chinese who will send them to work in the workshops to sew shirts for Europeans and Ukrainians."

Re: Do you support Ukraine or Russia?
I saw this online a few weeks ago and thought it was worth saving for future reference
Putin has terminal cancer and is smacked up to the eyeballs with opioids.
The moonface is from dexamethasone.
He is dying and quite ok with taking us all with him
Now that the US and NATO have had time to maneuver resources into position, we are seeing valuable Russian resources hit behind their own lines.
With today's technology, US/NATO can see and hear virtually everything going on within Ukraine without having to have feet on the ground. And, take out Russian military assets using drones/missiles fired from afar by Ukrainians with US/NATO targeting guidance.
Thus, no US/NATO soldier has pulled the trigger--but the outcome is the same.
It will be decided that Russia has to be sterilized ny nuclear means as a simple expedient.
After the war, Moscow will be allowed to survive as an impoverished European backwater, with everything east of the Urals cut into manageable oil procuction districts.
Russia's Far East, with its ports on the Pacific, will be handed over to China for rapid development of its neglected and mismanaged resources.
What you should see is that your great-grandchildren, both European and Russian, will speak only Chinese.
Putin has made of Russia something too dangerous for the rest of us to allow to exist.
Thus it will be dismantled and given to China.
These intercontinental corporations are so vested in China that they see only profit in this slaughter.

116 Rubles is $1.37. That's a lot for a quarter of cabbage.
