Stupid you are, rule should you not

Don't want NATO to be on your border? Simple: Just give independence to bordering Oblasts

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Even if they did Russia wouldn't be able to resist constantly antagonizing them to the point that they seek NATO membership. Thats what "NATO expansionism" is.

Ooh ooh ah ah!

*flailing arms wildly*

🐵💨💩

[-] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 116 points 2 days ago

Seems like reasonable demand

Of course, for fairness sake that would also mean no Russian troops in any russian countries bordering the West

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

And that Ukraine would be allowed to determine the size of the Russian army of course

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 12 points 2 days ago

He is trying. Just needs a bigger grinder to feed them all into.

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 146 points 2 days ago

So, it's pretty clear Russia plans to invade other neighbors, right?

2009

Thank you for mentioning this. I didn't take notice at the time (a bit too young still) and never properly read up on their invasion of Georgia.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 55 points 2 days ago

It's a pretty safe bet.

[-] verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago

Oh yeah, it's the county clerk's office and they're the Blues Brothers.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 2 days ago

Given how this one's going, that doesn't seem like a great plan.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Yes, the terror of nuclear annihilation will be significantly tempered by the hilarity if he tries taking on Europe.

Okay, that sounds sarcastic, but I think I actually mean it. He will get rekt and it will be satisfying. Then I'll turn to figuring out nuclear winter in fucking Canada.

[-] AllToRuleThemOne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Do not confuse Russia with Putin and his regime. This. Is. Important.

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I'm not convinced it's that important since the Russian people will be the ones affecting the invasion. Dramatic punctuation doesn't change the fact that Putin has been in continuous control of Russia for decades. He's their guy. I think the American public is complicit in genocide of Palestinians. Why would the Russian public get a pass for the misdeads of their government?

[-] AllToRuleThemOne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Of course they will be affected and already do be. I don‘t get the point? No, he is not. A lot of people got arrested and/or killed because they protested (way before the „special operation“) and a lot of people fled the country. Unfortunately the core state of the USSR never managed to establish a functionsl democracy. But clannishness is bullshit. Putin made himself over decades a de facto dictator - tsar? Well, dramatic punctuation does in fact emphasize core ideas: To be Russian =/= To be evil or supporting putin.

[-] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Nobody called anybody evil. This isn't about clans. People who live in Russia (ie Russians) will be the ones on the ground doing the invading. Whether they like it or not, they are supporting Putin. It's not really important what's in the heart of Ivan on the ground if he's picking up a rifle or mass producing fasteners used in the construction of tanks.

[-] floo@retrolemmy.com 87 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Of course, his demands are impossible. That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“

I really wish people would stop, acting shocked and surprised when Putin and Trump do shit like this. We have known, for decades, that both of them are insane monsters. Do something!

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

Trump might be insane but Putin is far from it. He’s been locked in a battle for the survival of his regime (and by extension his life) for decades. He’s extremely savvy at playing the political game in Russia.

Trump basically shoots from the hip all the time and thinks only his relationships with people and his deal-making matter. He’s a sitting duck for a manipulator like Putin.

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 18 points 2 days ago

That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“

Luckily this only works for two year iods and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.

Which is who is in charge of a lot of places, but you'd think normal people would never listen for a second.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 day ago

Eh, the rest of the Western world is slowly getting there.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 100 points 2 days ago

So Russia wants vassal states of everyone on their border. Just fucking try it with Finland. Go on, it will be funny.

[-] Hubi@feddit.org 61 points 2 days ago

Russia is not a serious country. The demands are essentially a shitpost. It's one of the most delusional things I've seen in a while.

[-] uuldika@lemmy.ml 52 points 2 days ago

so, NATO's surrender then.. as a condition of a cease-fire with Ukraine.. which isn't a NATO member.. which Putin invaded ostensibly to prevent it from joining NATO. right...

sure, I think we can do that. no Western troops, no problem! we'll just give them each a few dozen hydrogen bombs, and call it even.

[-] Silic0n_Alph4@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

A few dozen hydrogen bombs each? Sir, this is Europe! We won’t have such uncivilised weapons that could be used for discriminatory purposes in our beautiful continent.

No, the only solution is for every country in the EU, NATO, or bordering Russia to be equipped with a Project Sundial device. It’s the only way to preserve European unity.

[-] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Can someone link me their demands? I'm failing to find an article that properly explains them

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
