They say this so openly revealing what they really think.

[-] Greenleaf@hexbear.net 21 points 6 months ago

They simply can’t comprehend anyone not thinking western domination is a good thing.

Well, I guess Western Hegemony is dead

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 38 points 6 months ago

This is why Ukraine needs to conscript child soldiers, the west is on the line.

That will never not be funny. War is horrifying, but you gotta laugh at a bunch of ACTUAL keyboard warriors getting into a war zone and getting mercd because they couldn’t help but bring their phones with them in the most modern war any human has ever experienced literally ever. They triangulate the signal of random Iraqis, why wouldn’t you expect the Russians to find YOU?

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 26 points 6 months ago

Orcs can't read, how could they read a shining beacon of radio signatures? This will be just like iraq

Bro all you had to do was not embarrass yourself in the east and everything would be the same. The downfall of the west was already in the cards, but definitely still a long ways off before the war. You just sped the process up by like 20 years.

I feel like this is maybe a stretch, (wow gee the comedy br*tish Trump-alike has bad analysis?) and that Iran's Missile Adventure did waaaaay more damage to Western Hegemony than all of the Ukraine SMO has. I guess ol' Boris is just trying to drum up, uh br*tish support for Ukraine??

Also ain't it a little mask-off to just say "western hegemony" like that?

[-] Greenleaf@hexbear.net 30 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Let’s not forget Ansar Allah shutting down global shipping, bless them. One of the poorest countries in the world, who had been devastated by war for years, had the western dogs crawling back to them and offering to give them everything (except ending genocide) just to stop.

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 12 points 6 months ago

And they said no. Huge respect for that commitment.

[-] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 28 points 6 months ago

The Iranian missile attack is imho nothing compared to the SMO. You have to understand that what Russia has done in every practical term, is destroy NATO’s easternmost army 3 different times. NATOS entire arsenal has very much been obliterated and left to rust on the Eurasian steppes. The Iranian attack is very important, but all it really did was confirm what we already knew, which was that the iron dome isn’t effective and that Israel is and has always been vulnerable.

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

I had heard of US missile reserves dwindling, but did not know how bad things really are! Death to western hegemony.

thank you Boris, very cool

I wonder which Kipling poem will be recited by him to mark the occasion.
