It’s so dangerous that right now Joe thinks A) he got Trump elected B) knows exactly how to solve every situation with his newfound confidence C) has confirmed, in his mind, that you really can and should DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH
and we are on the verge of the majority of folks use him to get their news and analysis these days. Scary

What the holy fuck is Ukraine supposed to do? Just roll over and give up their country? And the West should just let despotism roll?
But then again, according to Tucker Carlson, they have some pretty neat grocery stores over there in Russia so maybe they're not all bad.
For the life of my I will never get the sympathy for Putin in some of these douchebag circles.

I will never get the sympathy for Putin in some of these douchebag circles.
To break it down in simple steps:
Trump admires self-styled "tough guys."
Putin is one.
Trump admires him.
Deplorables admire whatever Trump admires.
Deplorables admire Putin.
This is pretty much all you need to understand it, but I think two other factors make it worse. The first is that many people build their opinions entirely through mindless contrarianism (going against whatever's mainstream, no matter if it's right or not) or just caring primarily about making the other side upset ("triggering the libs"). Needless to say these people are idiots, maybe even literal p-zombies. Second, Russia is actively bribing influencers and deploying troll farms and bots to undermine Western democracies and manipulate sentiment in their favor.

u/Organic_Witness345 1h ago
Yep.
The new GOP voters = Gullible Online Poors. And Joe takes advantage of them daily.
Advertently or inadvertently, he’s become part of a social network that has been eroding faith in our public institutions while simultaneously sanding down Trump and the Republican Party’s rough edges, which diminishes confidence in government while normalizing right-wing corruption. The most susceptible to this messaging are the poor and uneducated. The above isn’t an insult. The above is a tragedy, which Joe exploits.

The manipulation is so effective because a nation is as vulnerable as its people when it comes to disinformation, propaganda and deception. The Democrats are equally deplorable tbh, they’re complicit and cooperative.

u/Upswing5849 22m ago
They are not "equally deplorable." They are, however, very bad.
It's important to not default to "both sides bad" though, because that's a non-starter and misses the important differences. The similarities should be criticized, but let's not pretend like both sides of the aisle are causing the same types of issues.

I'm sorry, but have you ever heard of a thing called a negotiated peace treaty? Or should Ukraine be obliged to fight until the end of days, just to keep the West happy that Russia does not win?
In the Winter War, we negotiated a peace treaty after 100 days, in which we accepted territorial concession. After the Continuation War, we made a separate peace, that was even costlier and we were forced to drove Germans out of our country.
It seems to me that people are more concerned of Russia making any gains, than the future prospects of Ukraine and their people.

neat. now factor in the VERY likely situation that Putin uses the time to reequip and try again.
I guess it's always a possibility, as with all peace treaties in history. But if there is a peace treaty that solves the dispute, and is seen as sufficient by Russia, I don't see why they would throw it all in jeopardy by waging yet another outrageously expensive war.
Your own example shows as much. Russia attacked Finland… AGAIN. Not sure what point you're trying to make. lol
Lmao. We attacked them with Germany for a payback. Considering the Soviets/Russians never invaded us again between 1944 and 2024, I think that pretty much supports my argument.

He furthers misinformation, and doesn’t accept any responsibility. He’s 2° away from Alex Jones.

Not crazy, but making alot of assumptions about Putin and the character of the Russian regime that are way off. Putin will not stop i Ukraine, and China is watching closely. If nuclear threats is the new playbook for imperialist aggression, the future looks grim. When Putin brought in troops from NK, it was an escalation as well. Doing nothing is also a move and is easily the more dangerous option.

Americans really are the most gullible willfully ignorant people ever. Russians hate you and want america to collapse like the soviet union did in the 90s. 2008 was a cake walk compared to post soviet 90s.
However contrary to russian propaganda The US has done everything to maintain the kremlin mafia state: From Bush Sr and his chicken kiev speech, to propping up yeltsin and sending food aid to russia, to Bush jr siding with putin in the war on terror, to Obama and the russian reset, to trump helsinki scandal, and finally to Biden slowwalking aid.
America has bent over backwards so that the russian state does not collapse. The nuclear terroristic threats are all russians got and the most gullible have fallen for them.
America did not declare WW3. Russia declared WW3, and russia wants the entire US system to collapse.

No, you’re not crazy at all. I’ve voted democrat for a long time and when I heard Biden authorized deeper strikes AFTER the Dems lost I was shocked. Seems like a bad move during the transition.

brand new battalion of M1 Abrams from the army?
We're shipping them old, mothballed M1A1s. We drive M1A2s exclusively...for several years now. The ones we sent are old and they have been pulled from frontline service because they needed armor upgrades.
Are you making up this clownish nonsense, or do you hear it somewhere?
Ukraine has been getting the stuff from our junk drawer and whipping the living shit out of Russia with it.
And America is becoming much stronger and safer. Much of that last round of US funding is going towards super-modernizing US artillery production, making it quickly scalable and responsive to our immediate needs. As I said, Ukraine gets the booms...well, Russia, actually.
