As a Finn I say this is fine. Every military resource that is tied down and not raping and destroying Ukraine is net positive.

Having to constantly communicate in abusive opposite-world ideas must be tiring. The notion that NATO is out to invade Russia or something is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve heard.
For real… like Mr. Putin sir, we don’t want Russia. In fact, I must insist that you keep it
I hope some other Russian usurps his dementia ridden ass, 24 years is enough.
I’ve heard arguments from sarcasmitron on YouTube that Putin actually believes his own lies. Putin is terrified that the CIA actually caused color revolutions in the 2000’s and 2010’s, and after the pro-constitution/anti-election-fraud protests in Russia in 2011, he’s been fighting against “the shadowy hand of the gay nazi west” ever since.
I find that less believable than the usual dictator playbook that uses foreign scapegoats to create a diversion from internal issues and justify authoritarianism.
It’s simple. Us vs them. Not complicated like the 3D-chess he used to play in world politics.
More specifically, it’s not for us. It’s for the people in Russia (who have no opposing viewpoints to hear) and the… special kind of individuals down at Lemmygrad (I don’t have any sort of excuse for them)
you’ve gotta remember, they’re just simple shitposters, the common clay of the internet…
you know… morons.
I’d love to be charitable to them but by god they make it hard
It’s simple: they’re idiots.
It’s like when my kid wants me to talk like DC Bizarro. It’s mentally exhausting.
It’s interesting how this might become a self-fulfilling prophecy if Russia attacks Finland
That’s basically why Putin has been whining about this. He wants to be able to invade neighboring countries without having to deal with the US, EU and NATO.
