Good. Its about time Russia lays the banderites down to waste.

Unfortunately, their vassals (like the UK) aren't backing down with the funding yet. Or at least they're trying to put on a show of not backing down. In any case - you can beep-boop money into existence all you want, last time I checked - you can't print shells and tanks.

And certainly not men either, the ukies are sending people with down syndrome to the front line. I wish I was making this shit up, but there's always a new low when it comes to the Kiev nazi regime.

Americans did that in Vietnam too. Historical precedent. Google "McNamara's Morons."

In my view this should hopefully signal to US "allies" to further move away from dependence on the US, leading to a further crumbling of the hegemony.

They achieved their goals of debt trapping Ukraine and cucking Germany. Who cares about victory?

Finally. Shame it took the US getting into another war to do it.

That move proved they'd rather bomb civilians than fight an even remotely justifiable war. They're not even going to be able to lie about being the good guys after this one.

Our reputation is in the toilet right now. The only people who could possibly approve of what Biden is doing right now are so psychotically anti-muslim that they can't even hold a consistent stance in their own head about who to back.

you forgot the reality hating libs who just cope by going "trump would be worse, vote blue no matter who"

Who’s your favorite contender in the genocide Olympics? Red team or blue team? Pick the lesser of two evils! The blue team will at least use conventional bombs, the red team will use chemical weapons :3

So just average dem voter.

This isn't really something to celebrate about given it's only happening so the US can now fully focus on dickriding Israel and bombing the daylights out of Middle Eastern countries. Fuck America and fuck the Biden Administration

The other shoe just dropped.

Wow, that was awfully nice of them.

Probably the nicest thing that they’ve done in decades, in fact.

Took that long huh?
