*So what does that make Russia? The unsupervised special needs child with a key to a prepper family armoury?*
They’d better be worshipping those nukes, the only thing stopping half the world from shitting on Moscow
Russian foreign minister perfectly described Putin though he tried to place the blame on the West.
Holy shit, it almost sounds like Russia is ready to get out of Ukraine.
Well, that explains all the fires in Russia.
The insane murderer complains that his victims and hostages struggle too much when he tries to murder them. Go figure
And Russia is only a superpower in movies or when juicing. lol
The losers are seething
the hypocrisy…its too much.
Russia is the bear. Dumb and aggressive. Unable to evolve because it is drunk all the time. Thinks it is normal.
He’s not wrong.
Russia is… nothing more than a glorified match. One whose century’s worth of a stockpile of 20,000 artillery barrels is 80% burned out.
Yeah yeah, and Russia is jealous we have matches while they bang rocks together.
Why is WW3 even a topic of discussion? It’s a fear mongering tactic to get clickbait views. Just please report without adding sensationalism please. For fucks sake.
Nobody uses matches in the West any more, we have lighters.
I sincerely hope that we will bring out the big matches and finally drive the russians out of Ukraine. The warnings, red lines and threats from Putler has been oh so much emptiness. There should be only one red line. And that runs across the Ukraine border.
Fucking Russia acts like they know everything. What the west knows, Russia ain’t had time to learn. And it just got a brand new box of matches
Man. No one’s threatening world war but then and Iran. They are literally the matches, tnt, napalm, gasoline, nukes all wrapped up into one. Fuck off.
Putin projecting again.
Russia can’t win a war against a nation whose population is three times smaller. How do they suppose they would do against America that has a population three times bigger and which spend 11 times more on their military?
Okay mister “I’ve only got a third of the nuclear capacity of the western world”. Or mister “I’m getting my ass beat by a country a tenth of my size”.
Welp, a ‘paper tiger,’ such as Russia has repeatedly shown itself to be (vis a vís Ukraine,) should really be far more careful about talking smack against those with a giant & well-oiled warehouse full of matches then.
If they want us to *genuinely* flex, I feel like sanctimonious **regret** will swiftly become their only remaining friend….
Yet they keep claiming that many things that have gone up in flames… or down to the bottom… was due to some soldier or sailor lighting up a smoke…
So, who is really playing with matches.
Start a war and then complain that there is a lot of countries that are against.
Another day another delusional Russian alcohol induced shit bag excuse of a politician threatening the west.. always along the lines of: “womp womp ww3, nukes, stop defending yourself etc. Etc. womp womp”
Russia is like a small child with a gun pointing at their own head, then screams every day “stop!! or I will kill the kid.”
As if RU are the rational grownups in the room? Talk about projecting; this is Putin blaming the West for his own mistakes, a psychological defense mechanism. He’s the problem.
Generally speaking, if you have to tell people how dangerous you are, it’s because you can’t risk them discovering that you aren’t.
Yea, Lavrov is all talk. If he truly thought of the West as children why not have his leader Putin come to New York, or London, or Paris and say these things to their faces? Oh, is it because those “children” would arrest him as an international criminal? Well then I guess Putin is afraid of children. What a powerful leader…
But we already knew Putin was a puss when he fled from Moscow to his Ural bunker when Prigozhin and a few hundred of his soldiers started moving to Moscow. Putin was running from his own chef. Such a powerful man…
You know Merkel said she was afraid of dogs and Putin used that info to try to scare her with a big dog, but she didn’t piss her pants and run the way Putin does. She stood her ground and endured, which I think is quite a telling difference that’s indicative of the East-West dynamic
Ah Lavrov, I can smell the vodka on his breath from the photo…
West is obstructing our imperialist warmongering and genocide like petulant children.
Their nukes are probably in the same condition as the rest of their army, sold for parts and useless
Except for their nuclear arsenal, Russia is otherwise broken.
This is like a bully complaining to the teacher when the kid they’ve been picking on gets up and thumps them one.
Light it already, crybabies
For a country that apparently doesn’t have an air defense system you’re talking really loud to #1 and #2 Air Forces in the world.
This might carry a bit more weight if Russia didn’t threaten us with WW3 and nuclear annihilation every week.
The Nuclear Threats are old at this point. They forget the key reason why people arent intimidated by it, the minute they use one they have no idea how badly they’ll have their shit fucked up when the US brings them the Team America Experience to put them back in their box.
Russian can threaten World War Three all they want, they don’t have snowball’s chance in Saudi Arabia of being successful. Russia can’t even defeat Ukraine and wants heat from NATO, I don’t think Putin and his cabal of insane madmen understand that the United States alone could send Russian back to the Stone Age.
It’s more like we are functioning adults and Russia is a narcissistic aging parent trying to gaslight us into doing what they want.
While obviously these statements are laughable to those of us who have kept track of the events of this war, they work wonders against large parts of our Western populations who easily fall victim to disinformation and propaganda. I’ve seen way too many Westerners claim that our current leaders are dragging us into World War 3 and it’s impossible to reply to them all or convince them really
“None of you seem to understand. I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with *me.”* – West
I’m 50+ years old and I’ve been listening to this shithole nation threaten me and my countrymen with nuclear armageddon my whole life.
Fuck these guys. If they think they can take us – Try.
Continually threatening WW3, then accusing Americans of being naive about nukes. What a condescending redact.
Arsonist who started a forest fire complains about children playing with matches.
…while Russia pours gasoline all over the house.
Look out, the gross old men are waving their rusty crooked sabres again.
I have a feeling that most of these types of comments are meant for their domestic audience. They would have to know they have little value outside of crafting a narrative on their state controlled media.
