Lmao, thank you.

Gotta love .ml critical thinking faculties. I link directly to a Wikipedia article about the views of Scott Ritter (to whom Susan Webber decided to give 1/3rd of the space of her article), where he is literally identified as a contributor to Russia Today and Sputnik, and I’m downvoted for calling a Russian shill a Russian shill. chefs kiss to .ml

I did look up who “Yves Smith” was before posting, and agree that the take seemed odd for someone supposedly neutral and objective. Nevertheless, the content of the article speaks for itself and reads like insidious Russian propaganda masking as geopolitical analysis. So I decided to make my comment anyway.

Then I looked up someone who she quoted and gave a 1/3rd of this article to - Scott Ritter. Gotta be some kind of joke if you believe incorporating his perspective is not pro-Russian shill bullshit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Ritter#Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine

Hahahaha stfu with this tankie ass crybaby fearmongering bullshit.

“Waaaahhh waaaaahhh, a country that we’ve been invading for 11 years gave us a booboo. Now we are going to take the gloves off. Before we were just playing nice.” Hahah, who believes this shit? And OK, go ahead and try to see what happens if you launch your nukes. That’s the only threat they have, but it will not end well for Russia if they dare. Can’t conquer a small neighboring country by conventional means, so naturally, gotta saber rattle nukes.

There is nothing strategically, tactically, or MORALLY wrong with Ukraine destroying the means by which this piece of shit invading country uses to launch cruise missiles at civilians in Ukrainian cities.

This article needs to escalate its head out of its ass.

You want peace and for your strategic bombers to not go boomboom? Then GET. THE FUCK. OUT OF. UKRAINE. All of it.
