The cope in that thread is amazing:
What if the myth helps to keep your house standing?
you forget these people are idealists some part of them thinks myths do shoot down missiles
Idealists don’t believe in magic. They know their fictions won’t stop missiles, but they know if they convince the western populations of the ideas of how dastardly and evil those missiles are and that justice must prevail over the evil enemies then you can pull the nation into a suicidal lose-lose war that no realist or materialist would have considered
more people believe in magic than you'd think. And lots of modern notions rest squarely on magical thinking. just because they don't believe in cackling witches and wizards doesn't mean people don't believe in magic.
for example the belief that by skilful legal counsel or prosecution someone can become innocent or guilty is a magical notion. As is the belief that the printer will jam because you have an important job to do
Bigfoot is the only reason my marriage hasn't ended
The Loch Ness Monster helped me beat the Big C
Mothman ate my ass in the dumpster behind Denny's
Tooth fairy is actually real though. Fake Santa, Fake Easter Bunny, Fake Jack Skellington are all a conspiracy to hide The Occluded Tooth Fairy

I mean that's most capitalist countries lol. Built on myths
Giving the title "Ghost of John McCain" to the Ukrainian that crashes the most.
Maybe he is more than a fighter pilot. Maybe he is an idea, a world-historical hero, light itself. The cockpit is too small for him. He belongs to a much more elite class of Ukrainians, the more-than-pilots. Volodymir Zelenskyy, Michael Chomiak, Stepan Fucking Bandera.
Michael Chomiak
This is a Nazi grandpa of Canadian deputy PM, right?
Ayup, Chrystia Freeland's granddad; avowed nazi collaborator, card-carrying, fees-paying Nazi party member and very dear and beloved to her.
"Title will go to the senior pilot for the most kills"
So, I presume for Ukraine it will be a posthumous medal considering they are all dead or gone?
It's literally war propaganda.
This person knows it's war propaganda, and is trying to get people to stop telling the truth. What a piece of shit.
There is an idea of a Ghost of a Kyiv, some kind of abstraction
Ghost of Tsushima was not bad but idk if it deserves an Eastern European sequel
Ghost of Tsushima is pretty naked Japanese propaganda. Literally naked if you unlock that one costume.
Listen buddy I will sign up with the first imperial power I see if they let me do cool iaijutsu shit :maduro-katana-1: :maduro-katana-2:
I'm not sure how much more Russia can do to "win" when Zelenskyy refuses to surrender and the Russian military isn't stupid enough to grind the entire country into dust, America-style. Ukraine is constantly drip-fed American arms and armor, but how long is it going to take until there's nobody left who is willing to pick up a gun?
