Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Capta: The unfortunate consequences of this war will be nuclear proliferation and nuclear war at some scale. Probably India/Pakistan, if Russia doesn’t pop them off first. Otherwise, “a global mechanism to stop wars” sounds suspiciously like the totalitarian one-world government that we have been lurching toward for 75 years. That will be far, far worse than sporadic regional wars. The best mechanism to control wars is to destory/outlaw central banking throughout the world. Central control over currency and economic policy is behind almost all our ills since the late 19th century. Lol, I agree we should abolish central banks, but yeah, there were no wars before that... |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Capta: I really found the depth of some of his insights shocking. For example - he predicted we would enact “Lend-Lease” again. Not just that we would “send military aid”. This shows he has both historical knowledge, and also understands the context of Lend-Lease as it would be perceived in the west - i.e. an all-out fight against totalitarianism, good vs evil, and so on. It was unspoken, but one has to remember that ultimately Lend-Lease was followed by direct intervention. IMO It’s an extraordinary and pertinent insight. I found it both hopeful and sad. Hopeful because he appears to be a learned professional, a reasonable man, and a patriot. I think in the current climate we need to be reminded that there are such men in Russia. It will take men like this (with a lot more power) to save their country from the maniacs running it now. Sad, because it’s clear that a lot of people who should know better allowed themselves to be duped/bribed/coerced/propagandized into an insane groupthink pushed by Putin and his cronies. When the war ends shit will come out that will make Russia a pariah for generations, which a lot of Russians probably don’t deserve. And that’s if they don’t start WW3.

Industrial revolution allowed more than two battles to occur before the countries economies collapsed. The agricultural revolution allowed for less than 98% the population to be subsistence farming so population exploded. This also allowed more than 2 battles to occur before the entire nation was on the verge of starvation. |

Sounds like a good Putin replacement. He doesn’t have the stroke. However, the same guy was just allowed to say publicly on Solovyov (the main Russian political talk show) that Russia was basically in deep shit. He calmly stood his ground against the clowns on the show and provided a professional and clear-eyed evaluation of their situation - at least insofar as the questions that were posed. Very much worth a watch to see what intelligent Russians probably think, as well as what the idiots who are actually running the country think. I have tried not to watch any Solovyov because I knew it would piss me off, and that proved to be the case. Fucking morons and clowns are destroying their own country while they try to destroy Ukraine. https://twitter.com/BBCSteveR/status/1526329765065539592?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1526329765065539592%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.polskieradio.pl%2F395%2F9766%2FArtykul%2F2960633Kremlin-prepares-Russians-for-defeat-in-Ukraine-report |

He no longer believed that he could invade Poland and the Baltics than I believe I could have a dirty weekend with Jennifer Aniston. Completely untrue I posted an article written before the invasion by a Russian defense analyst. He predicted the entire course of the war and gave insight into Russia's jingoism and total lack of critical thought regarding Ukraine. Summing it up, Russia thought that the invasion would be a walkover. Yes, they intended to invade and take over the whole country. They thought it would be over in hours if not (ridiculously) minutes. A lot of people on both sides are paying for their stupidity. Was that article before all of the sanctions and promises of military equipment? It was going to be an obvious shitshow for Russia before they ever stepped over the border.

United on weapons, but sanctions have more of a degree of being a paper tiger than most people realize. Swiss traders are handling Russia exports of commodities through paper and retitling to get around sanctions. Germany gas buyers have opened Ruble accounts and I believe have already started paying in "Rubles". They really pay Putin's national bank in Euros, which converts to rubles at an exchange rate that Putin sets. Then there is Erogshit in Turkey, complaining about Sweden (and Finland) for accepting Kurdish refugees. All the while, he is hosting Hamas in Turkey. Two-faced, total shit bag. |

And it is all done in a way that the average person does not perceive as taxation. Inflation “just happens.” Until the 19th century, Prussia and France had zero problem engaging in crippling wars without a central bank. Private banks were more than happy to rely on the sovereignty and taxing ability of the states to fund as much war as anyone desired. In fact, the first true “world war” - the Seven Year’s War, ran fine w/o a central bank for all combatants. Central banks may make thinks easier, but they are by no means a requirement. |

⚡️Ukrainian ambassador says he has impression that Scholz doesn’t want to supply heavy weapons to Ukraine.
In an interview with German RND media, Andriy Melnyk, Ukraine’s ambassador to Germany, criticized German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for his unwillingness to send heavy weapons to Ukraine even though the German parliament approved the decision three weeks ago. Melnyk says that Scholz is likely “stalling for time” and waiting for a ceasefire in Ukraine when “there would no longer be any need for courageous decisions.” Telegram Link |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Capta: He doesn’t have the stroke. However, the same guy was just allowed to say publicly on Solovyov (the main Russian political talk show) that Russia was basically in deep shit. He calmly stood his ground against the clowns on the show and provided a professional and clear-eyed evaluation of their situation - at least insofar as the questions that were posed. Very much worth a watch to see what intelligent Russians probably think, as well as what the idiots who are actually running the country think. I have tried not to watch any Solovyov because I knew it would piss me off, and that proved to be the case. Fucking morons and clowns are destroying their own country while they try to destroy Ukraine. https://twitter.com/BBCSteveR/status/1526329765065539592?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1526329765065539592%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.polskieradio.pl%2F395%2F9766%2FArtykul%2F2960633Kremlin-prepares-Russians-for-defeat-in-Ukraine-report Would be interesting to see if this talk show commentator is still on the air and, if so, has his tone changed. Whether they shut him up, took him off air, killed him or allowed him to continue to talk freely would be quite telling. If they allow him to continue that signals a big change in Russian posturing, huge change. |
