Even the US' intelligence apparatus is a bunch of Putin shills now

But seriously, no shit lmao. Did libs really think Putin was gonna try and pull an Ögedei Khan and try to take Europe?

[-] Jobasha@hexbear.net 80 points 4 months ago

They literally think the Russian brainpan is incapable of comprehending democracy due to them assimilating Mongolo-Asiatic authoritarianism genes in the time they were under Mongol rule so probably, yeah.

I heard literal this take ex cathedra in university in Poland. 30 years ago.

[-] Jobasha@hexbear.net 44 points 4 months ago

Damn. I haven't heard this one in uni but I had a professor who was casually peddling Spengler and some other sus figures.

I particularly love the fact that libs simultaneously believe that Russia is on a brink of collapse and about to roll over Europe as soon as it's done with Ukraine. They see no contradiction there.

Yes. You should see the bullshit the European media keeps shoveling.

I barely even read any Polish media since 2022, they went into high gear of being unbearable and keeps at it ever since.

Brought to you by the party of PiS!

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 28 points 4 months ago

It's completely identical under PO. Russophobia is universal in Polish public spaces.

[-] Tomorrow_Farewell@hexbear.net 27 points 4 months ago

in February of 2022 Biden said that he was trying to reestablish the Soviet Union.

[-] Tomorrow_Farewell@hexbear.net 37 points 4 months ago

He has also said that he is proud to have been the first black woman to serve with a black president.

In general, I would not associate Biden with the word 'intelligence'.

And yeah, no, if Putin was trying to reestablish the USSR, he would be much better than he is. An anti-colonial power that massively improves its people's lives? Sign me up.

Ögedei didn't even tried to take Europe, it was a really big scout party which casually obliterated every army they encountered, arrived at Hungary, seen the pushta and considered staying because it reminded them of home and then went back because khan died and new one had to be elected. In the meantime collective Europe was thrown into a state of abject terror not known since Attila the Hun. But of course as soon as it passed, islamophobia kicked in, they started to blabber about Prester John and tried to use Mongols against muslims.

[-] Flaps@hexbear.net 31 points 4 months ago

Its one of the excuses they use to keep sending weaponry
