I laugh when people say "Ukraine is much stronger than Russia". I think they don't realize the MSM brainwashed them into thinking this is a one on one war when the whole world supplies Ukraine against Russia and control the narrative of what's being broadcast/which opinion people need to have through all the MSM/Social medias.

At the end of the day, this war will make people even poorer due to the price gouging while all the corporations will get richer from their investment into the war business.

The day most people stop living online and being raised by google is the day we'll slowly cure/save this planet. Until then, people will only parrot what's being said on the news and how they should think.

Notice how Covid is barely a thing now they did what they had to do with it?

I barely use this internet nowadays and it feels so much better when you realize you're away from the people who were raised by google and social medias. It make you realize there's still good people that live away from the internet and still have critical thinking.

Purchased a house in Mexico and the people over there are awesome. It's day and night compared to most Americans/Canadians. They still value family/neighbourhood/their town/heritage. We lost that due to the social media who told us how to think and what's right or wrong. I am 100% considering movie to Mexico to travel from there instead of traveling from Canada. There's nothing worthy to see in America anymore. Whole America infrastructure is outdated/crumbling due to the lack of resources invested into communities/roads and the amount of drug addicts/homeless living on the street is through the roof but HEY! Let's send billions abroad to support shit we don't have to support!

One day people will wake up from this mess and i hope it won't be too late. Until then, people will keep living to watch anime, play video games, watch tv shows that bring nothing to their life but a huge waste of time.

Russia did not have enough forces around Kiev to physically storm the city, so they withdrew to focus on Donbass. Taking Kiev isn't necessary to secure DPR/LPR and will lead to massive losses of life on all sides, especially civilians, so why bother?

Odessa is a likely target in the coming months and will be taken by storm, like Mariupol if necessary.

Kharkiv is a large city with a sizeable Nazi contingent & forced conscription, it won't be easy to take and there have been no serious attempts as of yet to storm it.

There are 60-80 thousand Ukrainian soldiers occupying the parts of Donbass that have not yet been liberated. There are no "important" cities in their area according to you, and yet Russia obliterating them would still be a massive victory, and a crippling loss of tens of thousands of troops for Ukraine.

Point is, it's not all about Kiev.


What does Odessa, Mariupol, and Kharkov have to do with the Donbass? That's right, they don't. This whole operation is just a land grab by a failing empire.

Apparently, Russia used chemical weapons in azov factory:

Mariupol's fall is sealed. The last 160 regular Ukrainian forces gave up. Only Azov members still fight because Russians wouldn't take them prisoners.

Securing the Black Sea coast to deny Ukraine, and thus by extension the US and NATO, any kind of access to the Black sea is important. They are also securing a land bridge to Transnistria.

These cities are also quite pro-Russian. The locals are just temporarily occupied by fascists at the moment.

If Mariupol is any indication, the Ukrainians will take down as many civilians with them as they can when Russia comes for these cities.

Yeah I'm sure Ukraine changing their constitution to make the way for joining NATO and constantly talking about joining NATO for years, and being trained by NATO instructors and integrating all their military equipment up to NATO standards was all just for show.

Here's a video which I saw a while back but never got around to posting:



Bogdan Boutkevitch: "We don't need to understand the Donbas, we need to understand Ukrainian national interests. Donbas must be exploited as a resource, which it is." "At least 1.5 million people are superfluous". "No matter how cruel it may sound, there is a certain category of people who must be exterminated."

The people of Donbass are just a resource to be exploited and must be exterminated.

This is how the fascist Ukrainians view Donbass. Now it makes sense why they killed 14,000 of them prior to the Russian operation and why they refused Minsk.

To them the Donbass people are like jews to Nazi Germany.
