goldenowl73 said:So, get this—the daughters of Russian Deputy Defense Minister Oleksii Kryvoruchko actually hold US citizenship, and the guy’s sitting on a multi-million dollar property right here in the States. It’s pretty wild when you think about it, especially considering all that intense rhetoric about how much they supposedly hate the West and NATO, claiming they're just trying to defend themselves against all this supposed expansionism.
⚡️The daughters of Russian Deputy Defense Minister Oleksii Kryvoruchko turned out to be US citizens. That's what the investigation from Navalny Live revealed.
On top of that, Kryvoruchko himself Has an Apartment in The United States worth several million dollars. https://t.co/WPwZtlU3MH

The European Union should have achieved energy independence ages ago, but honestly, once you see the parasites running things in Brussels, it all makes sense. Now, we're just stuck knee-deep in this mess.

Ksenia Stefan, an employee at the pro-government Associated Press, actually filmed herself burning her passport as some big patriotic gesture.
She claims she's just "waiting until the whole world becomes Russia" before she travels again.

Look at the trial of that 18-year-old Russian rapist—kid looks like he just left his mother's side. He just rolled his eyes before facing an American-style court. Then there are the trials for those so-called "mercenaries" (who were clearly under pressure) sentenced to death by the Luhansk People's Republic. I don't doubt their "justice" either. ☕
I haven't seen this supposedly reliable American court prosecute soldiers who clearly executed Russian soldiers in existing videos, or those who intentionally maimed them so they couldn't return to the front. ☕
Luckily, the Americans don't have anyone like Šeks to point fingers...
Then there's the testimony from that British guy near the start of the Russian invasion. Lost in time and space, he tried to join the Ukrainian forces like it was a game of COD. He testified about Ukrainian soldiers placing two dead Russian soldiers at the entrance of their town as a warning. I haven't seen any proactive effort from the courts to investigate his claims. ☕
I can't wait to hear your excuse that the Russians are worse in this regard. Let me answer that now: of course they are. Any army that held dominance until now committed more crimes than the other side. The weaker side didn't avoid them simply because they are better; they lacked the opportunity. ☕
Also, we can say with certainty that the head in Popasna is definitely a Ukrainian POW, that the footage was filmed right there in Popasna—you were there, weren't you?—and that the Russians are the ones doing the mutilating. ☕
Stop with the hearsay in a conflict this brutal. ☕

Why is this guy in a black shirt without pants? Actually, looks like he might be missing his underwear too....

On the other hand, when you live in the most resource-rich nation on the planet yet still deal with such mediocre living standards and systemic dysfunction—well, I suppose you have to be exceptionally "talented" just to get by.

BTW, I don't have the link, but people are saying iPhone prices in Russia have dropped back to February levels (if they aren't lying to me...). The ruble ate the dollar for breakfast.
On the flip side, the euro is tanking, and America is going down with it—except America won't be able to climb out of that hole after the new year. ☕

analogbear5 said:There's definitely a difference between the USSR back in the '60s and Russia today.
Joshua Myers432 said:To be perfectly blunt, comparing the USSR to Russia—whether you're looking at the 1960s versus 2022 or any other era—is just plain foolish.
