Man, it's so easy to forget the people who have died in war.
I wonder if the ruling class has distilled it down to a science, identifying the average time it takes for a person to stop caring about someone they know who has died in combat.
Will they be able to have enough scooters and donkeys for them all though?
BYOD - Bring your own donkey.
Is there anybody who still believes their bullshit propaganda?
Who is the target audience?
Uh huh, just another China's last warning
Are they expecting an invasion? Who wants to invade? I suspect China.
The US may overshoot when attempting to invade Canada.
You think China wants to invade Russia?
Actually. Let me ask a different question. Do you think North Atlantic ambitions to invade Russia have ever gone away? The West invaded Russia 3 times already - Napoleon, the Allied intervention in the Russian civil war, and the third reich's objective in WW2. Russia has been a continuous target of North Atlantic aggression for over 200 years.
Kremlin says a lot, waiting ( with popcorn ) for the next "We'll nuke London" ๐
Moscow gets mobilised? That's gonna rise a lot of anger. Al lot.
