There are many complex cultural and economical aspects which none of amount for any reason for any sane person. But in that way the complexity is inherently linked to Kremlins unique brainworms and natural stupidity.

It would have been similarly insanely stupid to attack Finland, or Japan, or North Korea. So to draw distinctions to those, trying to understand the biology of Russian brainworms is relevant to the conflict. But no explanation will change the fact Russian decisions are made based on poverty and stupidity.

Zeihan mister “linear extrapolation with no adaption over decades”. So i guess you are an expert in everything too.

ps. well it could be because Putin decided to do so and noone will ever really know what happened in that head or what information he was presented at the time

DreamerOfImprobableDreams ,

Putin did it because he's an abusive dickwad who thinks it's his god-given right to control Ukraine. That's it. That's the entire explanation.

People keep trying to rationalize his actions, come up with some more respectable reason, because there's no way this much death and suffering could be happening because one guy is an entitled, controlling piece of shit, right?

But in reality, that's how fascism always works. It's always been how it works. Why'd the Nazis invade Europe? Because they were entitled, controlling pieces of shit. Why'd the Soviet Union refuse to let the countries they liberated after WWII go? Because they were entitled, controlling pieces of shit. Why does China want to annex Taiwan? Because Xi's an entitled, controlling piece of shit.

People who try to justify Putin's actions have never dealt with abusive narcissists before, and it shows.

Well thank you i really dont give a f*ck what you think the explanation is. You see my entire point is that you cannot know because you do not have access to his thoughts and frankly i dont care. It seems you are the same quality of person as Zaihnan someone that proclaims stuff with a tone of authority just expecting others to swollow your crap without reason.

Be nice…

Lol please keep posting we really need more noncredible takes on the world here! You seem like you have some fun unique takes on things!

Trapadana ,

Well i actually dont mean that as an insult but if someone shows no epistemic humility at all and then offers me the truth bomb “well hes a cunt” which will never lead to anything interresting or relevant i really just dont give a fuck for that persons oipinion on a matter and i think that is justified.

No offense.

No your fine! I just wanted to not see it turn into a flame war.

I really don’t like removing content I think I’ve only had to do it like 2 times outside of the person who was posting scat porn.

Trapadana ,

Well was it Putins scat porn? I think i have no more to say here :D

No that possibly would of stayed up if it was marked nsfw and on topic.

DreamerOfImprobableDreams ,

I'm sorry if I came off as confrontational or insulting, that couldn't have been further from my intentions. Absolutely did not mean to start any kind of drama / flame war, just sharing my opinion in what I thought was a friendly way. Hope you're having a lovely day, wherever in the world you may be! :)

Well, mainly because Putin is rich and power hungry. He think he can get the USSR back together, one invasion at a time.

SomeAmateur ,

That isn’t new either. It’s the entire plot of the first Ghost Recon from 2001

Peter Zeihan says a lot of outlandish things for views. Stopped watching his vids after like a couple weeks

circuscritic ,

Sir, this isn’t a high flauten Wendy’s. It’s a noncredible Dairy Queen.

Correction this is the racoon crack den behind the dumpster that the employees pay to not fight in hoplite combat.

sadreality ,

Tankies feel attacked

circuscritic ,

I enjoy Zeihan, but he’s most definitely NOT a credible Russia expert.

But he is absolutely a noncredibe one, so I guess this meme found a good home.

ilikehorse ,

Listening to Zeihan is a bit of a guilty pleasure. The guys talks about very serious topics with the affection and language of a contender in a reality dating show. I get how casually listening to him, you may get the impression of a balanced thoughtful opinion, but Zeihan is anything but that.

Never seen a Zeihan meme in the wild before.

SaakoPaahtaa ,

Man NonCredibleDiplomacy had a strong Zeihan phase going on for a while like a year back or so. Navigable rivers :D General Xi has killed the messenger so many times :D Doom and Gloom™ :D

Thankfully, some stray braincells engaged for a few seconds and we realised much of what he says is bullshit.

Which goes far on NCD
