Russia-Ukraine War Political Discussion

[Husky_Khan]

Ukraine is destroyed, there is nothing left:

I saw that video too. It looks like the Ukrainian troops in the Donbass and Southeast are already cutoff and will be annihilated within 24 hours if they don't surrender. Eastern Ukraine is basically lost because it's indistinguishable with Russia itself.

"The battle in eastern Ukraine is really almost over, all of the Ukrainian troops there have been largely surrounded and cut off. You have a concentration down in the Southeast of 30 or 40,000 of them, and if they don't surrender in the next 24 hours, I suspect Russia will ultimately annihilate them." - Colonel Douglas MacGregor

Oh wait this MacGregor video is dated over a year ago.

Not for Agent 23 specifically but this is something that occurs in threads like these. Typically we have a five media limit for posts. There's no reason to make posts with a single image/tweet/video and then make another post directly after that with a single image/tweet/video etc. It's pushing down the discussion.

If you feel the compulsion to post multiple media on a topic, just put it all in the same post.

Also its already stopped for the moment but for the future, stop repeatedly posting pictures of feathers or other image "meme" nonsense. It's spam and if you want to throw images at each other, share your Tumblrina account details with each other and go do it on Tumblr.

The feathers I post usually come as an exclamation point to rether long posts aimed at a bunch of whiny cowards.

Also, I see an interesting video, I post it, somethines with a difference of minutes to hours.

I don't see it appropriate to stick it in the old post.

In the future, please just edit your old post.

As long as the gap is reasonable I will.

How much?

 

[Abhorsen]

How much?

Just avoid double posts. If it's been a full day or two, then fine, maybe double post if you must (even then I'd avoid doing it unless it's been a long while). But usually it's not worth it. People will see your new content edited in when they next open the thread. If you want to draw people's attention to it, just put something like "EDIT: new update: [info/video here]." or some such.

 

[KilroywasNOTHere]

Alright how much does the system get messed up that we have to implement the ol SB "no double posting rule"

 

[mrttao]

Honestly this "no double posts" rule seems incredibly silly to me.

Its not necessarily a rule. I personally have nothing against it, but it can be annoying.

Smells like boomers boomering to me.

But really, it is probably not the software itself as much as some people not wanting a particular thread to be bumped up constently because that kinda starves new threads for attention.

Or maybe some of the mods are just pissed that I unmasked and "insulted" one of their number.
In any case I don't give enough of a shit to pursue the topic further.

 

[Captain X]

Oh, really?

Yes, you bitch about how horrible your homeland is while enjoying the benefits of it that previous generations fought for, all while shilling for some other country and how awesome you think it is, which is mostly based on fantasy and propaganda.

Also, frankly, the way you argue.

Dude, the previous generation is more pro-Russia than me and had lots and lots of tankies.

News at 11.

The previous generation loves Russia, the generation before it loves Russia, all the generations going back to Sophronius of Vratsa - Wikipedia and Paisius of Hilendar - Wikipedia all loved or liked Russia or wanted to drag it over the Danube to help with our Ottoman problem.

Now, you were saying?

There's a few threads by the same poster which are like that - basically just them spamming their own thread by giving each video they post its own post, and in a matter of minutes. Kind of annoying and seems like a way of artificially increasing their post count.

Only the commies who had positions of power love Russia. Anyone else who actually had to suffer under the reality of the Soviet Union hates it.

Yes, American, please tell me more about My land, and my people and my history, and our opinions, and what they are supposed to be.
You probably couldn't find Bulgaria on a fucking world map without google.

Since you love to tell other people you know hack about what to do, when are you going to Ukraine, they can use the cannon fodder advice and guidance.

Why not? You do the same to my country, so what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

So, like I was saying, just like the leftists, you live in this fantasy land of what your country is and what your preferring country of choice is, in this case Russia. As you said yourself, you and the commies in your country have a positive view of Russia. This is something only those who were in positions of power or people who never actually suffered under communism would do. The fact of the matter is that your country joined NATO for a reason, and that reason was to escape from Russian tyranny, yet you are seemingly in love with Russia yourself. So I suggest moving there.

That's more blunt than I would put it but I am left wondering why your country didn't see split into two smaller providences if there was a population that loved the Soviet union so much.

Do you actually know anything of our history, or languag, mamitsata mrusna da ti eba?
I guess not.

Here is some spin from the French:

"Bulgaria differs from other countries of the former communist bloc" in which the Soviet era left bitter memories, said University of Oxford scholar and political scientist Dimitar Bechev.

"Bulgarian history books focus on the war of liberation of 1877-78 and feed the mythology of brotherhood" with Russia, he added.

Even after the communist regime's demise in 1989, "cultural, political and societal links" between the two countries continued, he said.

Most middle-aged Bulgarians studied Russian in school, understand the language and some regularly follow the news in the Russian media.

Pro-Russian sentiment is also strong in part of the Balkan nation's political class

Ukraine war tests Bulgarians' pro-Russia sentiment

"Russians are our Slavic brothers" is a common slogan in Bulgaria, but the Ukraine war is putting widespread Russophile sentiment to the test.

No matter how hard they try to spin this shit the truth is there.
The majority of us do not see Russia as primarily responsible for the Donbass or the SMO situation.

And we are gonna yeet all your Harvard cokeheads back where they belong.

Agent23, as a Bulgarian, has his cultural blinders on big time. But that is for a reason and not so much to do with Communism, and more to do with Russia essentially liberating Bulgaria from the Ottomans.

So as tsarist liberator and later communist conqueror, what to think of Russia must be quite confusing for the Bulgarian mindset.

But, Agent, the blinders must come off. You must see this war in the context of Eastern European geopolitics more than any culture war or WEF shenanigans. And I think you must understand that Russia sure as shit isn't trying to liberate Ukraine from the Turks.

How about you take your anglo propaganda blinders off instead.
