Biden can't even warmonger properly lmao. Looks like Zelensky and Ukraine could be turning away from US and opening up some diplomatic channels with Russia.

US tried so hard to make this into a war but everyone seems to be getting sick of their sundowning ramblings.

    It's institutional Russophobia that goes back generations. The idea of Russia being a "hotbed of totalitarianism" predates the Soviet Union - before that there was constant hand wringing about the threat of "Czarism".

    America is a wing of the British Empire, especially the Progressive/Federalist wing of the ruling class, and the Brits have had an insane rivalry with Russia going back to the 19th century. Aligning with Russia is a non-starter.
