That the USA could have won the Vietnam War in the early years but went easy on them and it back fired
the same narrative we're starting to see shaping around the debacle with the proxy war in Ukraine incidentally
they genuinely couldve trampled russia what are you talking about? russia has suffered extreme losses, if nato wanted to they could claim all of russia by easter (ignoring nukes). i mean ffs prigozhin couldve claimed moscow if he didnt care about russian bloodshed
absolutely hilarious that a grown ass adult believes this
you believe russia can hold itself? it cabt even take ukraine.

no argument im right L
you clearly think you're right, and arguing with somebody who can't accept reality after two years is clearly pointless, enjoy living in your fantasy world
nato hasnt wanted to claim russia?!?! theyve literally handicapped ukraine refusing to give special equipment for most of the war. russia wojld fall to shit in a ground invasion of all of nato wtf are you om about
NATO wanted to break up Russia by crashing Russian economy and doing a regime change. RAND even published a whole paper on goading Russia into a proxy war in Ukraine to achieve that. Meanwhile, it's absolutely incredible that there are people who still believe in western wunderwaffe after all this time. There is no magic NATO equipment. In fact, what we now know is that most NATO equipment is strictly inferior to Soviet style equipment Russia has. NATO can't even match Russia in basic shit like ammo production. NATO has been exposed as an utter joke, and anybody whose brain isn't as smooth as a bowling ball can see that clearly now.
youre a lunatic
No, I'm just not an utter ignoramus.
you think NATO would lose to russia holy shit lmfao
Anybody with a functioning brain understands that NATO would lose to Russia.
cant even beat ukraine seethe harder
You keep on projecting there ignoramus. Entire NATO is now moaning about being depleted fighting Russia in Ukraine, yet here we have you coming up with these genius takes. Amazing stuff truly.
ground invasion with all nato troops and full throttle of armies would decimate russia
something only an utter imbecile could believe
You hear the same talking point with every US military failure. It's a version of the stabbed in the back myth.
We would have won if those pencil pushers let us shoot into crowds of civilians! (Ignoring that they did do that and did not endear them to the local populations)
Me sowing: Hahaha, yeah! Fuck those civvies, shoulda been civillized like me! Ratatat-tat, motherfuckers!
Me reaping:
Nobody can win wars, except the people providing loans and arms.
