What I have learned: * Russia has already won the Ukraine war * Which NATO
started * A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender * Also
Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM * Also Ukraine is exploited by the
West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else
will finally be alright It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over
there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people
(what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people /
confused Westerners / some other explanation.)
I will reciprocate their vibes-based take on what Hexbears think, and presume that they believe Putin would just be emboldened by victory in Ukraine and promptly invade another country. Thus, the war can only stop if Putin is defeated.
Liberals unironically believe this
While simultaneously believing that a single Western tank can destroy an entire brigade of Russian ones without taking damage, and that a single F-16 is sufficient to maintain a permanent no fly zone

Geez the HUD in the movie did not age well. It looks like someone did it in MS Paint.
U C, Putin is actually Hitler, and Hitler wanted to conquer to world, so Putin wants to conquer the world.
Just don't ask why Russia is only invading Ukraine. They do want all the other countries too.
But then you could easily say that Russia only has the economic power to fight one enemy at a time
Did I mention that Hitler and Putin are also Voldemort? That might help.
Not just why only Ukraine, but Putin has been at the head of Russia for over 25 years. Before Ukraine the only military interventions Putin got Russia involved in were in places that were in Russia (Chechnya and Dagestan). I guess there’s Syria but even libs don’t see that one beyond just aiding Assad.
If Putin wants to conquer Europe he sure is taking his sweet time.

imagine my complete and utter shock as I read the wiki page on the russo-georgian war only to find what finally brought things to conflict was NATO considering Georgia for membership
Not Georgia, South Osetia, a internationally unrecognized state which nevertheless maintained de facto independence since 1991. And it wasn't even an invasion - Georgians started ethnically cleansing Osetians and Osetians called Russia for help. Pretty much humanitarian intervention, especially that Georgians were also incited by west. Entire thing ended way less bloody than Ukraine because Georgians weren't terminally nazi brained and backed off. Unsurprisingly, Russia didn't invaded entire Caucasus and west Asia after this, nor even any parts of Georgia.
Fun fact: it also ended the very popular and decades old Russian genre of "Georgian jokes" which portrayed Georgians like incredibly foolhardy and incredibly tough people - because entire Georgian army withdrawn when a single spetsnaz brigade shown up.

Yeah, it makes what happened in the Ukraine even more outrageous since the example of Georgia was right there, just 6 years prior.
I saw a map of “countries Russia likely to invade next” and it was literally the CSTO.
This is the only materialist take
