I don't understand what you try to say with this thread. Russians good, Germans bad?

don't you pay attention to revisionist historians and propagandist's stories and articles about russia?

that is the central theme, that and they are the movers and shakers of the world in a good way and not what really happens documented by countless western sources say since ol farty declared himself president for life. if you disagree your automatically entered into the kamikaze from the 100th floor swan dive to the street competition, or get some special seasoning on your breakfast eggs.

I get it.
But same thing can be claimed by the other side. And the other side can be anyone, Russians or South Americans or Africans.

Don't try to look dumber than you really are. Zelensky is a puppet, but Putin is a sovereign leader.

How do you explain the 2 stars that appeared on your post 30 seconds after the post appeared?

Because he said something that two people agreed with.
I just added a third star. I agree with him.

And I’ll give both of you a star.

Giving stars to posters who argue on who is worse than the other. Is it the West or Russia...

Almost instantly: one star is an accident, two is a pattern.

You probably right.
If you see many stars on a post vey soon after it was made just like you said.

You have nothing to contribute to the thread subjec?

What do you want me to say?
What I understood so far is UAE will do happily business with the Russians just as Iran does and just as we do with the Saudis

Everyone in Russia is treated like Putin's puppets.

Some quite willingly, it would appear.

How long has he been in power now?

This only happens in de facto dictatorships.

Oh, again I see Western propaganda narratives.
The sooner you return to modern reality, the faster you will take a more or less worthy place in the future world order.

Um ... no. He said something that two people agreed with. I gave him a third.
That's not any kind of conspiracy that people are somehow giving themselves stars.
This thread is at the top of the 'recent posts' .... so it's getting lots of attention.
Thus the stars quickly.

He also was cheering during the Wagner situation. Thought for sure Wagner would cause a coup and destabilize Russia in massive riots and protests lol

When that failed and fizzled out within hours, it’s back to “Everyone in Russia is treated like Putin's puppets.” now.

lol

I enjoy the pomp and circumstance of such events whether or not I agree with the political climate or those involved.

The roar of the jets and precision of the piloting is amazing and gives me chills.

I could not help but notice the limp of Putin's gait as he walked along the carpet.

We certainly see the effects of age across the spectrum of the world leaders.

Hopefully as younger leaders emerge we find a more peaceful and cooperative union for all humans of this planet.

Who was cheering during the Wagner situation?
Nobody should wish for a destabilisation of Russia or any other powerful country.

I was?

Care to cite an example?

The head of Wagner was apparently assassinated by Putin.

More despotism.

Yet some cheer for the destabilisation of Ukraine?

There is no real opposition to Putin in Russia, simply because the overwhelming number of Russians support him. This is reality. Western propaganda dreams are just dreams.

Personally, I was very worried during Wagner’s campaign against Moscow. I called all my friends in Moscow and asked why they weren’t being destroyed? At the same time, I understood that these people were heroes, they fought honestly for Russia. But mutiny during war requires a tough response. This is definitely always and everywhere.
But Putin acted much wiser and found a way out of the situation. I and people like me were very pleased.

I’ll tell you an anecdote from the time of Wagner’s campaign against Moscow:

There was an audio file on Russian social networks with a telephone conversation between one of the Wagnerites and his wife. He spoke (I will omit the obscene language). We drove up to Moscow, turned on our smartphones, went to the State Services website and went nuts. For each of them there is a huge pile of fines - for lack of insurance on cars, driving without seat belts, and so on. And then - Moscow - there is a camera on a camera. We thought - well, what the hell with this trip and these fines, we don’t earn that much.

And they turned back)))))
