Political rants

Numbers don't equate to actual power. See? This is my problem with discussing these topics, it doesn't matter where you go, be it 4chan, reddit, saidit, leaked reality, make my coffin, best gore clones, Twitter, Facebook, there's always going to be one Russian troll or bot talking about how everything is just propaganda and forgeries, how not even 500 soldiers have died, how not a single tank has been taken down, how the ammo depot's aren't blowing up but it's just Russian soldiers lightning firecrackers, how they have unlimited ammunition (that's almost 60 years old) and infinite reserves of guns even though soldiers have been seen on the battlefield using Mosin Nagants, it's just pretty pointless to discuss these topics properly, right, wrong, those things don't apply on open armed conflict, aggressors will always be morally inferior to the defendant's unless the aggressors are a force originally conquered and now rising up in arms for independence

It's just not funny anymore how this has devolved into conspira-paranoia-theories when there's so many live footage available, sources worldwide proving facts but all it takes is for a bit to say "propaganda, lol" meanwhile the citizens themselves don't realize how deep into the media idiocy they themselves are, it's on the same level of idiocy and zealotry found on multiple governments where people are censored and fed up what they need to believe to keep the cogs moving. I'm tired of this senseless debating happening all over the place with people who can't put 1+1 together

@swadian it'd be easier if you'd just say you had a problem with people who love their country

I have a problem with people who reject reality and become zealots on their own volition. I love my country and I accept the dark facts it has and the shit it goes through and WILL go through. I'm a realist

Last message of my nationalism, I promise. A testament of Brazil's former diplomatic strength was at WWII. Americans could pressure us into entering the war for the Allies. However, our president at the time, GetĂșlio Vargas demanded that, in return, the US would GIVE (not LEND) us money in order to build a steelworking facility so we could enter the war. No country did that. To the US, no less.

So going to war for a justified reason, disliking the enemy, protecting your country is bad. And faking to know the balance of power is good?

Say what you will, you're entitled to what you say and so is everyone else. Don't hope to sway people on an anime social media too much

Floricurr @cur_lypav there is no justified reason for this war unless you believe countries should still behave as if we lived on the 1800s. Russians are the ones faking the balance of power, just look at the amount of T-62s appearing on the battlefield, just look at the amount of Soviet era weapons being deployed instead of the modern small arms developed. Just look at the Mosin Nagant, a rifle that's more than a century old being given to troops because they don't have anymore weapons, then you say Russia still has it to go toe to toe with the US, this is what Im talking about, pure zealotry and rejection of reality

War blows, no matter the reason. It's always a power struggle with governments and people in power and the plebs always get the shaft. Or about resources... probably more so than power struggles.

Don't take it personal buddy. I'm a man who honors his country, alright? Said it quite a few times but I dunno if your head has been wrapped around that yet.
