Old regime, new regime

Makes me think of He-Man

Europeans are just too effete and socialist. It would require an entire culture change from a can't-do attitude to a can-do attitude. They're too anti-freedom, and blame events on a collective instead of on the individual perpetrator. They see personal responsibility as adherence to a set of societal rules, instead of with respect to their own actions and inactions.

This is because Russians and Canadians/Americans were pioneers and thus come from a pioneer culture of self reliance and building things. The frontier. Europe is just too old and removed from such ideas

Correct.


They don't have too. "The powerful do as they wish and the weak suffer as they must"

I too wish that global politics was governed by morality and some basic decency but unfortunately it isn't.

It's just about different groups of interests. Not always different countries' interest btw., but also the globalist elites, corporations, military-industrial complex, etc.

America / globalist elites viewed their interest in provoking the war in Ukraine so they did. Now they don't see it that way anymore, or they think they've achieved as much as they could so they behave differently. Cruel...

You'll bend the knee too

The only reason you haven't yet is because it's safe. You're a coward.

Posting a video is not an argument.

I reject CCC 841

This is 100% true and should accompany PARD rules. But calling something putin propaganda isn't an argument either
The question you had at stake is;



That question is a lot murkier than you make it. There's a reasonable chance America conducted purposeful agitprop and stirred up the color revolution, even if it didn't directly orchestrate it with state actors. And once the revolution was in swing, the US very clearly adopted and micromanaged it and puppeteer the resulting government. Furthermore, we don't "deal with the people in charge because that's what we do", America has long held an explicit policy that we won't recognize the revolutionary regimes that overthrow democracies- something we seem to waive any time we like the resulting regime, making us hypocrites.

I don't think we can say it has been proven how much or little the US had to do with the formation of the revolution. It could be a wide margin, between the CIA organizing it, or just being opportunists who had no idea it would even happen. At the same time, our reaction to the revolution was damning in and of itself. We supported the revolution, we took over the regime, we propped up an authoritarian government that disenfranchised half the country and engaged in atrocities, repression and civil war.



also to elaborate on the unknowable here: We reasonably know that the US engaged in cyber operations, propaganda / paid actors to instigate protests against Putin during his election in 2011. It was only 3 years later that the Maidan occurred, Russia would have ever reason to think it had a similar nexus whether or not it actually did. And we still don't know.
