Yeah, no. Russia’s acting like the bully (or abusive parent) who kicks your ass on the regular, now out in public with people watching, holding up a fist and then laughing at you for flinching. “Look at this p-ssy acting like I’d really hit him”, says the bully, and he knows and you know he’s going to beat your ass when no one’s watching, but to the rest of the world he has plausible deniability. The bully’s not going to beat your ass now, because people are watching and he’s afraid of consequences, but watching you flinch back makes him feel just as strong as beating you does.
That’s Russia right now. Announcing an ongoing genocide in Ukraine, moving 100k troops to the border, and then going “lol you cowards thought we were serious? Fuck you.” And then when the media cycle moves on and the world stops paying attention and Ukraine tries to go back to normal the troops will still be there waiting.
There’s a reason Trump and his supporters love Putin so much. They both confuse bullying with manliness.
You are spewing lies. Which Russian official said anything like that? You clearly believe too much in the propaganda from western media.

You western propagandists really need to get your story straight. You’re claiming that recognition of independence of Donetsk and Luhansk is now an invasion, but you clowns also claimed that Russia already had troops there, so which is it? 🤡
Why didn’t you warn us step-dr.Strange?!
Top tier trolling
Classic KGB. Fear, uncertainty, doubt.
Except that it’s US and UK who are spreading FUD.
Amassing troops on Ukraine’s borders, edging warplanes into Finland’s airspace, and getting chased about by the Irish fishing fleet certainly isn’t spreading FUD, right?
Amassing what troops? Meanwhile, exact same kind of edging is done by US regularly. US sub just violated Russian waters this week. Maybe stop guzzling propaganda for a bit and go touch grass.
Are you calling Putin a liar? He said that the amassed Russian troops are withdrawing. So… those troops?
And those satellite photos of military bridges being erected in Belarus really sound like US propaganda. Yep. You doubt the facts and claim doubts as factual, comrade.
That’s not what he said at all. Russia conduced a joint anti-terrorism exercise in Belarus that was scheduled back in 2019. You should learn some basic facts before running your mouth.
Pravada
figures you’d be too dumb to spell pravda correctly 😂
“Ukraines borders” is Russian teritorry, so of course the military is stationed there. Meanwhile, why does United States and NATO have military bases all over eastern Europe?
so of course the military is stationed there
What are you talking about? They weren’t stationed there until just this year. And they’re stationed in Belarus, Moldova, Crimea along with forces in the Baltic Sea.
They weren’t stationed there until just this year.

The stupid, it burns. There’s
130k to 150kpossibly 190k troops there now. No previous article mentions that number of troops. This represents an escalation, which is higher than any number in the articles you are linking which means…there are new troops there that were not previously there before. Kinda weird that I have to say something like that out loud.This also completely ignores the fact that the largest country in the world, specifically massing troops on all borders of a specific country isn’t the same as having them distributed anywhere in the country.
The Southern military district is headquartered in Rostov on Don since 2010, which is 100 km from the Ukrainian border. It would be very strange if there were no military units stationed before this year.
That has nothing to do with the recent escalation of military presence, which I know that you know, so why are you wasting both my time and yours?
You must be talking about these satellite pictures of Russian tanks being parked outside their permanent barracks. Really scary!
And which recent escalation do you mean exactly?
To discourage Russia from invading it’s neighbors, maybe? As it repeatedly has. You’re not suggesting that the massed troops aren’t a direct threat, are you? Because the last time that happened, Russia did indeed invade Ukraine.
Russia has never invaded Ukraine. If you are talking about Crimea, there was a referendum held on joining Russia, and the large majority agreed. Not surprising when a fascist coup is happening, and nationalist militias intend to murder ethnic Russians.
Untrue, comrade. Donbas was lousy with Russian troops. You’ve got quite a list of lies there, too. The best one is divining intent without a shred of evidence.
Using that logic, NATO has invaded Ukraine since Ukraine is crawling with NATO troops.
I have watched videos from Donbass, and there was not a single Russian soldier to be seen. But if you are so sure, show me a single picture/video of a soldier with Russian insignia in Donbass. It is true that individual Russians travelled to Donbass and joined the militia. Nothing wrong with that, fascists from all the western countries are fighting alongside the Ukrainian military.
Got to respect the sass.
“Russia has never invaded Ukraine”
It’s the new Stalin did nothing wrong.
That sounds fair.
Western media felt like their balls got kicked with an iron rod.
