I think the last couple of years have really shown what a pathetic POS Zelensky and co are. Like, they are literally sacrificing the future of their entire country and its people for a proxy war that even their master, America, has grown bored of.

If it wasn't glaringly obvious back in 2022, it's basically a confirmed fact now that the entire conflict is one giant American scheme to weaken Russia and shackle the EU to the USA. Seeing daddy America divert everything to the genocidal entity and forgetting Ukraine should be a gigantic slap in the face to anyone still actually stupid enough to think that this conflict is about muh freeDUMBs and stopping evil Putler.

There is a 0% chance that Ukraine will join NATO or that America will militarily intervene on the side of Ukraine (LOL), and even joining the EU is a distant fantasy. Zelensky's 1940s Nazi collaborationist fantasy of Ukraine being the "Israel of Europe" and the imperial core's new attack dog will never ever happen because Ukraine will never be as valuable as Israel is. America is literally on the verge of starting a new disastrous and unpopular war (Even MAGAts are split over this one) over Israel's unquenchable bloodlust. It's both truly sad and pathetic to see idiots laud Zelensky as a great leader while he is sending generations of men into the meat grinder as a kind of advertisement of Ukraine's servility and bootlicking skills to the West. All while Blackrock literally steals everything that's remotely valuable in the entire country.

I think the main lessons of the Ukraine proxy war are:

1. Never let neoliberals run a war

2. Never ever ever trust America or its vassal states

3. No more half measures, Walter.

Not gonna lie, I find it genuinely hilarious how worms like Mette Frederiksen and other Altlantists still dream that they are independent when they are actually complete vassal states of the American empire. Vassals that America has shown time and time again will be discarded whenever the empire feels like it.

Imagine if Trump ends up inadvertently bringing down American hegemony over the planet by pursuing rabid jingoism against America's own vassal states and global institutions. Truly the harm reduction candidate of the millennium.

Also, it would be hilarious if Obama, Clinton, Blinken, and the rest of the war criminals had to watch Trump be America's Gorbachev and reverse all of their work to ensure American dominance over the planet.

Imagine being a Ukraine supporter right now and watching America completely forget about Ukraine and focus on Israel.

Looks like the "tankies" were once again proven to be correct when we said that this conflict wasn't about freedumb.

The greatest irony about 1984 is the the bulk of the concepts in it like "memory holes", "doublethink", "room 101", perpetual war ect. ect. were directly inspired from Orwell working in a British propaganda ministry during WW2. NOT THE SOVIET UNION. Orwell never even visited the Soviet Union and had an admiration for Hitler. Everything else in the book is literally just a rehash of tired old anti-communist memes from the 1930s.

In my opinion, the best thing about this election is the permanent destruction of Joe Biden's reputation and legacy. All he had to do was not run and he could have still retired with an army of libs fawning over him.

But because of his and his family's hubris, he will be forever known as the "dementia president". Just like Taft is the "fat president who got stuck in a bathtub" and Nixon is the "corrupt crook president" Biden will forever be known for being the only nominee to be forced out by his own party due to dementia. Even ultra blueMAGA types have acknowledged this. I honestly think that in like 30 years my future children will be learning about that time we had a senile president. (Assuming the USA still even exists)

And that miserable piece of excrement deserves it 100%. I've seen a lot of leftists over the years (even some hexbear and Chapo) say things like "he should be retired and golfing". HELL NO! Joe Biden is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people at a minimum (probably millions if you include the Iraq War and Libya). He is directly responsible for genocide and has defended the most nakedly genocidal fascist state for decades. Even domestically, he was an abysmal turd who shilled for corporations his entire life and supported segregation, greatly accelerated the drug war, supported the Patriot Act, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. At a minimum he should be rotting in a dark dungeon with Hillary, Cheney, Obama, Bush, Trump, and the rest of the demons.

I genuinely hope that before he croaks, he has the final realization that all he will ever be known for is being the "dementia president".

Words cannot describe how much I now loathe the spineless POS, Bernie Sanders. Which is astounding considering how I basically worshiped him back in 2015/2016.

All this fucker had to do was announce his presidency after Biden's corpse announced it was not running and he would hold the entire Democratic party by the balls. Seriously, what would the Democrats do? Rig the primaries again? Then threaten to run as an independent and kick them a kick in the balls permanently.

It boggles my mind how the entire "Left" in the Democratic party have been caving nonstop for several years now while the party dived to the right and fully endorses genocide and Trump's border wall. Bernie and the rest of the Squad weaklings couldn't even have the basic decency to call out the most televised genocide in Human history. I wonder what libs in 2015/2016 would think if you told them that in just a few short years the Democratic party would be entirely behind Trump's border wall.

I'm now 100% convinced that AOC and the others would be demanding the left to vote for Hindenburg instead of the Communists if they were around in 1930s Germany.

So this might end up being cope, but I'm starting to think we are seeing a modern version of the Battle of the Bulge happen in Kursk.

At first, it seems like a major L for Putin as the thinly guarded Russian border is overwhelmed by what looks like another PR stunt by Ukraine. But after a couple of days it becomes obvious that this is actually a major offensive by Ukraine. As Ukraine pours in thousands of troops from the Donbass front into Kursk. We are now getting reports that Ukraine planned to go much further into Kursk than they did and possibly wanted to capture the nuclear plant in Kurchatov to do some kind of nuclear blackmail to force Russia to make major concessions.

This obviously isn't working as their incursion been halted/severely slowed down. Sure it's another propaganda W, but they are taking massive casualties, while simultaneously weakening the Donbass front and failing to force the withdrawal of substantial Russian forces from Donbass. Even Ukraine NAFO cheerleaders aren't happy about this one.

So Ukraine now has to choices: Option A is to double down and pray they can hold out and make some gains and remove some Russian troops from the Donbass. Or option B which is to cut their losses and take the L (Ironically what Hitler did several decades ago during the Battle of Kursk).

Either way is would be some kind of poetic irony if the modern Kursk battle ended up being the nail in the coffin for the Kiev regime just like the 1943 battle of Kursk was described as the "last gasp of Nazi aggression" for Germany.

NGL, watching insufferable radlibs and BlueMAGA types eat their own shit is pretty enjoyable.

This is what you get you you rally behind the decrepit husk in charge of a decaying genocidal empire.

I'm not religious at all. But seeing decaying husks like Lindsey Graham and his ilk go to Ukraine and demand that 18 year old's be drafted and sent to die in the trenches for the Empire's proxy wars genuinely makes me want to believe in some kind of Biblical eternal torment.

It bothers me greatly that Arab countries are doing virtually nothing beyond making empty statements about the Gaza genocide.

Post Soviet Russia has many L's but even they had the foresight to intervene in Ukraine and Georgia before they were able to launch their genocides.
