Yeah, they have no buffer. They may be able to create a minor one in a hot war, but they cannot win fully., or even hold on to gains if it came to war

I'll just say straight up that this is begging for more American lives to be wasted. The USA has had more internal problems in almost two decades, while it was busy trying to be the world police. If anything, joining the Good Fight should be helping ourselves before we help others. My point in case.

While Russia is trying to regain it's superpower status, we could desperately use this time to address the growing inflation, deteriorating infrastructure, and so much more. Maybe when we are actually on a good setting for once, we could go back and start saying "Okay, enough is enough." It's one of the reasons I'm a Limited Isolation advocate.

Geez. Hollywood is more deluded than I originally thought.

Anyways, if you take news from hollywood actors, you already are a gullible person enough to believe anything.
Those people are all under a pretty much paedophilia lobby that has its own globalist agenda.

I would encourage people to find real news sources, and make their own opinion before having to rely on hollywood actors.

Tell me, what are these "real" news sources? And why should I listen to them as well, when in all likelihood they are just as biased as every other one?

There should be serious repurcutions for any interference in our domestic elections.
If they do it for the United States, then they likely do the same for every other European nation.

It's a pretty damning thing regardless if it had any 'major effect' or not just on principle alone.

I was extremely disappointed when Morgan Freeman drank the Neo-Mccarthyist Kool lade. Like can we not demonize another country for the same shit we do? Like how the actual fuck are we at War with Russia? Did I miss the news about us firing nuclear missiles at each other?

This, plus I am getting very tired of the politics of hate and fear, or where people call others traitors or similar for not being able to take action on their side.

It is bad enough about how much of an ordeal that flying has become due to the post-9/11 paranoia.

Sorry that I cannot be of any help to political activists, but whatever the cause for better justice and human rights, please don't give up.

Russia wasn't at a that great if a disadvantage during the Cold War, true. They had allies, land, a large, fairly well trained and equipped force, they where the worlds second largest economy of I remember correctly, they had a population in the hundreds of millions.

All things they have lost. They have next to no allies, the only one that really comes to mind for me being Syria, nor do they have Eastern Europe buffering their core territories from the West anymore, he'll, those countries are now some of Americas staunchest allies, and their economy, the most important thing for waging a Cold War, is shit now. At their height, the US literally out spent them. They can't even hope of getting to Soviet levels of funding now, let alone matching the US.

So no, you're wrong.

The Russians won several minor hot wars. Three in fact. Or are about to finish up the third one. The collapse of the USSR was due to internal corruption, and an inability to grasp the basics of populism. That's no longer the case. Could've been four - but Ukraine is more of a burden than a benefit at this point.

Russia lost over 20 million human beings in WWII. The infrastructure stood in ruins. Russia was behind in the nuclear race, mostly civilians butchers by Nazi Atrocities in a time span of just 4 years. I wouldn't say that was good for the country.

Today Russia has plenty of allies - take a look at the SCO. Thanks to Congressional Sanctions against Germany, (just in case you thought Congressional Foreign Policy is somehow smarter than Trump's,) the EU is now going to shift to neutrality with Russia. Despite all of Hayley's statements, the final list of sanctions against North Korea was a slight modification of the Russian Proposal; not that of the US. Oh, and the modification was to accommodate China; not the US.

Russia's infrastructure is improving, the Russians have the highest standard of living that the Russians ever had, demographics are improving, albeit very slowly, and Russia just survived a massive economic hit, relatively intact. Furthermore, the World is no longer bi-polar. Russia doesn't have to beat the US in Latin America anymore, just hold out long enough for China to come in. The Cold War works in a bi-polar World. That's no longer the case. Unless you listen to Sharania, or Morgan Freeman.

Let me give you a clear cut example. US somehow manages to place nuke shooters in Europe, upgrade the Alaskan System, (which is thankfully good enough to protect US mainland from Kim, sorry Hawaii,) tidy things up with Turkey, and place nuke shooters in India. In response, Russia forms a strategic alliance with China in exchange for giving China nuke tech, and all of that effort was destroyed. In a single day. Still think that the Cold War works?

That's a right-wing strawman mocking serious accusations verified by U.S. intelligence. And since the usual WMD well poisoning will come up, the Bush Administration and especially Cheney were dead set that "evidence" would be "discovered" with or without intelligence cooperation.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.
