"Putin invaded to protect his popularity, and as a result has lost a lot of popularity and continues to lose popularity as economic sanctions continue" - sincerely, Putin puppet who said he wouldnt invade.

literally no one at all believes a word u said.


Do you think I care if I'm believed or not? This is 2022, basically the entire media is corrupt and under the control of a handful of billionaire elite oligarchs, while all forms of social media are increasingly censored and manipulated, even going so far as manipulating search engine results.

In such a time as this, very few will listen to the truth when it is clear that it is the exact opposite of the commonly accepted narrative.

As for Putin's popularity, last I checked it was around 75-80%. Seems to me like the sanctions have barely scratched him. Putin is popular with his people, which is the only metric that matters.

Letting tens of thousands of people die in Donbass might have put his popularity rating on par with Biden's.

Obviously there are truths in the above. I also am not a fan of goodies vs baddies. I would term them Blue vs Red and not assign a "goody" or "baddy". It is a fact that media (in general) across the world has mutated further and further from providing a neutral position since some time and that there are now narratives that are championed by individual media outlets and en-masse. However, I also dont mind being in the minority in this thread. I will still try to form a balanced view (while accepting in doing so it attracts trigger happy people). I honestly am looking at this from a period of conflict point of view rather then by the hour day noting its too easy to be swayed by events that occur on a daily basis and sometimes it takes days/weeks/months/years/decades for the truth to come out (and be accepted).

I dont care about putins popularity, just as i dont care about biden's popularity. both are irrelevant from my view point. In terms of media the best counter to 1 sided stories is to read from other sources.

That's not sad - it literally is his job, lol. Guess he earns some "solid" 50k rubles per month (~ 600 USD) for his services in Putin's troll army. :rofl:

cant see anyone getting paid to post in this topic, or what the value of it is. pretty sure there are better forums for that carry on.

It's 30 roubles per post (rumored). 30 pieces of silver (nickel). :)

arguing without even a chance to convince other people of your point is sad af. maybe it was worth your time before you missed by a mile on the invasion, now its just pointless and sad.

I haven't seen you post anything other than delusional nonsense based in the Western MSM narrative regarding Ukraine so far, but you have the gall to label me a Russian troll, only proving your own level of stupidity. Truly hilarious.

That is your belief. There are some reasonable people here, not everyone are sheep like you. I find it interesting though that you would just automatically assume everyone is exactly like you.
