They're talking about disconnecting Russia from SWIFT as we speak.

I hope you all understand what this means. The entire world economy is going to shake before our eyes. Consequences will be devastating for people in the West just as much as Russia.

I have no doubt this escalation will accelerate the collapse of the global economy. Naturally, you can understand what consequences there will be in store for Western society as a result. It's going to be chaos, pandemonium, insanity in the streets.

We may just be a short while from WW3 at this rate.


oh no, what will the world do without potato vodka?

I have no regrets. Ukraine had every opportunity to settle this diplomatically without forcing Putin to resort to force.

They killed thousands of people, all while the US and NATO and the so-called "United Europe" cried pathetic crocodile tears about Russian aggression. But they did nothing to reign in Ukraine's aggression towards the thousands of people they murdered.

Yeah, I'm not happy that Russia was forced to invade and put the entire world in the most dangerous and destabilizing position that it has been in since the Cuban missile crisis. Actually, this might be even worse because now every economy, everywhere, not just Russia's is going to get completely fucked.

That doesn't mean that the US, NATO, and Europe aren't all a bunch of gigantic fucking hypocrites responsible for creating this mess in Ukraine in the first place, though.

I won't apologize just because Russia is finally doing what they had to do, and clean-up Ukraine from the Neo-Nazi filth and ideology that had spread through it like a cancerous tumor.

In the end, a De-Nazify'd Ukraine is better for the whole planet. It's also better for the average Ukrainian, whom will no longer have to live in fear of the armed militant radicals kicking in their doors.


You have been so consistently wrong why do you think people should listen to your opinion now? Literally every single thing you've said, the opposite has happened.

Letting Neo-Nazi's have their way in Ukraine and continue to spread their insane ideology unopposed in Ukraine would be like if the US let ISIS set up shop in Mexico and gather 10's of thousands of troops armed with heavy military equipment there.

It's a non-starter. It would cause problems for the US eventually that would force them to move in.

For Russia it's even more personal because of their experience in WW2. They lost 20 million people fighting Nazi's already. A new Nazi movement on their border is not something they could realistically tolerate.. although they tried, for 8 years.

Didn't work, so now tanks and aircraft will do the hard work for them.

You're a brainwashed sheep libtard. Do you think I care what you think, or people like you think?

I post what I post because I know in my heart that it is the truth. The fact that so many people in our day and age are total slaves to propaganda nonsense is not my fault.

At any rate, Russia is turning up the pain dial on the west. People everywhere are going to feel the pain economically. You might think Russia will hurt more than the rest of us from sanctions, but in reality Russia will just out-evolve any sanctions that may do serious harm to them and become even more self-reliant to the point where even the disconnection from SWIFT will not hurt them in the long run.

Those of us here in the west however don't have the kind of national unity required to deal with economic fallout from pre-ww3 sanctions. We will crumble, and the internal situation will devolve to chaos sooner or later. I think Putin knows this and understands it well.

As this gent says, what is Russia going to do when they install a puppet government and they don't have the resources to occupy a country where 30m hate their guts? Do Putin and his cronies actually believe they will be seen as liberators so aren't expecting such a fierce response? It's hard to make sense of how this benefits Russia in the long term

surely some supply chains need to be redirected, but other suppliers can fill in for a good while

It doesn't, plain and simple. Which is exactly why so many, myself included, were surprised when Putin really pulled the trigger. In the past, he used to be shrewd and calculated and rarely committed any strategic blunders. This time around, he chose a reckless and irrational approach which will predictably undermine his own power in the medium term future.
