i suspect we will see China invade Taiwan in the coming months.

Nations are publicly tossing the term Nuclear Weappns around. I pray it never comes to that. It should not even be a topic of discussion. for anyone.

[tk[as]]

or are retards incapable of feeling even more retarded.

i may have made a mistake in asking the initial question. you dont have to answer it.

[tk[as]]

Why havent any fucking russians responded to this shit.

Are they afraid their government might see it? is it that fucking oppressive in Russia?

Maybe it will be interesting for you what russian medias talk about the situation:

The full Putin's speech right before attack to Ukraine.

Sorry, only russian. You can switch the subtitles on and translate.
I tried to find that in english part of RT, but didn't find it there. Only short videos, about 2-3 min.

I think there is going to be a nuclear war. The whole world is turning against Putin and he will feel like he was tricked. Like they set a trap not him. He will be furious.

The only thing that will stop Putin is either the people closest to him if they dare defy him, or the people of Russia. The civilians.

Prayers for the people of Russia

I have watched the interview. I am not so much concerned about what Putin has to say. I am curious how the average Russian feels about this.

Do they support putin. Are they against the invasion of ukraine?

.. or is Russia so oppressive that it is not safe for anybody to speak freely on the issue if they do not support putin?

Lol, no one is intervening here, so Russia will most likely successfully oust the sitting ukrainian government in the coming days.  What makes the nukes start flying in this, the most likely scenario?

The west was already opposing and sanctioning Russia all the time, but Russia still has their partnership with China and the rest of the developing world.  They gave up trying to work with the west here, clearly, but have another path before them.

you think russians all hate this war?  Did americans all hate the illegal war on iraq when we invaded?  nationalism allows for a lot of nonsense in the name of the nation

I'll put it like this,  if someone is caught going against the state (either protesting in the streets or disparaging them in a public forum such as this),  it's literally a minimum of 10yrs in prison.  So I'm not surprised that the Russian members are quiet on this.

It's amusing to see the gullible idiots in here be proven wrong by TK though.  I cant believe someone on this forum actually believes the complete fantasy that the russian state media has been putting out.  Not a shred of truth in any of it.  Biden is no better either (he lies just as much, if not more as the russian state media which is nothing more than an extension of Putin's own words), but the consequences of just discussing it are no where near places like Russia, China, NK, Cuba, etc.

China gets a bad rap for it's "State run media",  but many people forget that Russia has the same thing.  The US also has it's version of state run media (ABC, CNN, CBS, MSNBC, etc they are all pretty much run by the deep leftist state).  But unlike the communist run countries,  the west has options OTHER than state run media that does actually carry the truth (Fox and countless talk radio shows for example).  The consequences for dissenting opinions are also not as harsh in the west compared to these dictator run places.

There are different opinions in Russia about that.
Many people support Putin, many people not.
It depends on what medias you watch.

There's a lot "opposite" medias who criticise current government. I'd say they tell the same point of view as the point of view in the USA.
Putin doesn't touch them except they cross some red lines (like explicit support for Nazism). Then such medias begin to have big problems.

There's a lot of media personalities (well-known actors, singers, scientists, etc) who condemn russian aggression against Ukraine and they condemned most russian government activity before that agression.
Some other people think that's because these they have some realty in USA/Europe and they are being afraid to loss it. Looks like nobody is being afraid of Putin, but they are afraid on USA/Europe.

But i'd say last 2-3 days that's going to be dangerous to publicly criticize Russian aggression soon. Of course that's related to popular bloggers with millions subscribers. No any problems for some random persons with 50-100 member communities.
Last 2-3 days russian government asked to not call that "a war", "an invasion", but "a special military operation".
Not sure if there will be some problems for those who ignore, but i'd say it's time for big changes in Russia.

Yes, most russians, same as even most ukrainians have the same thoughts.
Everybody understand sanctions will not stop anybody.

you think russians all hate this war?

Some russians hate it, some other enjoy it.
Putin's rating is about 75% and grows up on these events.

As we can see on TV, if someone is protesting in the streets as part of the group, he will go to police and then will go home in 12-48 hours.
Much more serious if someone desecrate monuments of WW2 or something like that. That's sacred for Russia. Then it can be a several months in prison. Or that can be nothing, it depends...

What is truth? Who knows that?
Last 8 years russian official media showed how ukrainian nazi kills citizens of the east regions of Ukraine. Also these 8 years russian official media showed that Eupore/USA ignored these facts.

im starting to question whether putin will succeed or not.

media in U.S. seems to say "entire world against putin right now"

might be fake news. very well could be... U.S. media makes it sound like most russians against Putin right now.

but if it's even remotely true... Putin is going to have 2 options: 1) continue with mission and risk economic collapse or militaristic retaliation from western nations (i think economic collapse is possible. western retaliation unlikely)   .. or 2) turn around and appear weak.

Right now Ukraine is trying to fast track its way into NATO it sounds. If that happens, Russia will be invading a NATO country... and he will have almost no choice but to retreat... or risk a war that will most likely escalate to nuclear magnitude.
