Describing ~150,000,000 people as sloppy based on their country of origin/ethnicity is racist. A quick survey of your recent posts here shows even worse comments aimed at specific nationalities. I’m sure you can debate your points without resorting to rhetoric like this :)

More like they were given back the smoking ruins west of the Dnipro River that the Russians never wanted to begin with.

Wouldn't say that considering how many thousands of Russians burned to death in October defending that land. Meat grinder working on full throttle.

Meat grinder is classic Russian military strategy lol, and of course they took a lot of losses they are fighting NATO trained and equipped troops, that shouldn't be too shocking.

Do you think they wanted to stay there?

If they didn't want to stay there they wouldn't of invaded in the first place, we are talking about territory here Russia officially claimed as being part of Russia in the early October. Their troops have been filmed saying "Russia is staying here forever", either way Putin extremely unhappy with how things are unfolding on the ground judging by how frequently he fires his generals.

I dunno about the irony, I think the defining character of America (and Canada and Australia) has to be found in their initial genocides, and additionally to differing degrees in the history of slavery.

The foundation of American mythology is that they escaped from an imposing tyrant to establish a revolutionary, vibrant liberal democracy. What they actually did was rebel against the abolition of slavery passed by London, and went to war to keep their human tools. It was a counter-revolution in that sense. A lot of Americans (not on PARDfront, perhaps) look at the ACW with a bit of chagrin about the cause of the Confederacy, but haven't come around to understanding it's really more of a second substantiation of the America's initial rebellion against abolition.

Blaming russian citizens for not demonstrating/protesting enough is definitely not "racist". Open a dictionary, help yourself. Oh and don't try to harass me again.



Third-party post bitching for the well educated one.
Not sure the one you do the better; bitching about US or West while drinking wine or supporting an inhuman authoritarian regime. (not talking about russia)

What makes you think the only reason to invade something is to take it over? That's such a weird conclusion to come to, military operations happen for a variety of reasons and that's not exactly a controversial statement lol.

Which area was it that that was recaptured after being declared Russian territory? And who declared it?

Random troops usually aren't the arbiters of foreign policy so what they say doesn't have a ton of weight in my mind. And ya probably, I'm sure a war with the west Is a complicated and stressful affair I wouldnt be thrilled either.
