.... that fights back the bacteria from the covid .....
Quick get a booster, the virus mutated to a bacteria. Are we all doomed now with this new covid bacteria?

Trump and Putin's fault.

Seriously, if 'experts say' that this happened because 'evolution', almost everyone would take it as gospel.  I'm not even kidding.  Until the scamdemic I really had no idea that such a huge percentage of reasonably bright people were so incredibly low-functioning when it came to basic tenants of so many areas of science and engineering (and history and critical thinking abilities...and basic human decency for that matter.)

It used to be a joke to explain any natural phenomenon as 'osmosis' since so many people would accept it.  Not so funny any more.

If it is true that most people who got the gene therapy are in a process of accelerated brain damage and dysfunction due to capillary vasculitis the problems are going to become a lot worse vis-a-vis what kind of understandings the average person will even have the potential to achieve.

Bahmut is still holding out...
What are your predictions for the ending of this battle?
In wider and narrow sense...

At this point any advantages (or even draws) the Ukroids had vis-a-vis terrain and logistics are way back in the rear-view mirror.  I predict that Wagner and Russia will keep cranking the handle of the meat grinder as long as someone keeps stuffing in meat.  Russia could probably end things within hours if the Ukrainians stopped giving them a reason to let things drag on.

I would say to the Russians 'don't stare a gift horse in the mouth' relative to Ukraine's mystifying strategy, but it's really not a huge win to be depopulating Ukraine of kidnapped cannon fodder who probably are not, for the most part, the despicable brown-shirt class 'elite' troops.  Those guys are reportedly busy in the safe rear-areas shooting deserters.  Liquidating the current crop of Bahkmut AFU victims just kind of sad, and I imagine that even some of the hardened Wagner mercenaries feel the same.

The head of the Russian mercenaries breaks Kremlin’s law of silence
Yevgeny Prigozhin, the businessman at the head of the Wagner group, takes advantage of his political and media projection to break a taboo: public criticism and threats against other members of Russia’s elite

Yup, Prigozhin even said straight up that he is planning to challenge the president in the next election.  The president of Ukraine, that is.  The coke-head faggot-dancing actor/clown and his merry band of ADL-certified-kosher brown-shirts can outlaw only political parties that are in their own rapidly shrinking area of influence, so I would say that Prigozhin has a pretty good shot at things.  Especially since he will be the main economic engine of the area under the time-tested truism that 'to the victor go the spoils', and a lot of prime industrial zones and mineral resources are de-nazified due to the rather impressive work of his forces.  I'm not saying it's right or wrong; just that it is what it is.  

And yes, I realize that Prigoshin was a joking.  It was kind of a funny.  On the other hand...

The real question of the whole thing is Kiev. Is Russia quietly and silently strengthening its military in Belarus? We don't seem to hear much about it if it is being done. But using Belarus to take our Kiev would be the way to stop the war almost instantaneously.


If I were Russia the last thing I would want would be for Kiev to vanish.  Or Central Ukraine.  This for the same reason I would not like to see Israel go:  Without a home for certain classes of undesirables (e.g., the Ukroid Nazis or the Israeli zealot 'settlers'), they would have to find somewhere else to infest.

I sense that Kiev is being preserved for a similar reason to why Dresden or Hiroshima or Nagasaki was.  That is, to make a statement if need be.  The difference is that in the case of Dresden, it was always the plan to show the Soviets what we could do.  The U.S. probably would not have done the nukes should Japan have unconditionally surrendered prior to the event or had a coup, but most people knew that that was never going to happen.  If/when NATO supplies real weapons to what's left of Ukraine I would not want to be in Kiev in the minutes afterward.

McGregor suspects that Russia will bisect Ukraine West of Kiev, from Belarus, to stop the flow of arms and 'the willing' troops if it comes to that.  I see it as an option (followed by just giving the West to Poland), but I no longer believe it is likely for the reasons I mentioned above.  I've always thought that if/when Russia got tired of playing around, they'd go through between Denipro and Zapharosia and make straight for the top of Modolva.  Maybe or maybe not in relation to an attack from Belarus.  Lately I'm starting to believe that it is a lot more tenable to just go back across the river at Kherson and that's the most likely escalation when and if the Russians get around to it.  If not, they can achieve the grinding effect we see now by just finishing up the Donbas and working in to the NE areas from Russia proper.

Russia (and everyone else) may well have promised their special friends ownership of the 'Odessa People's Republic'.  In that case we'll see a whole new group of 'Palestinians' and moves in that direction started before the war.  https://www.bitchute.com/video/BkXKJuAidQSb/  That's why I said very early on that I doubted Russia would take Odessa.

Ukraine is desperate now and well could try to pick a fight with anyone else just to get the attention off their losses.  Could be Modova or Belarus or both.  If the latter, Belarus would probably respond on their own, and probably quite effectively given the terrible condition Ukraine is in now.  If things escalate to a Polish/Belarussian conflict then I've no doubt that Russia would get involved, and that's probably the reason for the significant Russian garrisoning in Belarus.

This whole thing is getting more absurd (and obvious) by the day.

Over and over everyone keeps talking about Russia doing their 'greatest offensive.'  Everyone except Russia that is.

Russia said they were going to de-militarize Ukraine.  There is no better and less costly (in human life) way than to have a grinding war of attrition which lasts for years, provided the fighting is done at a time and place of one's choosing.  If the enemy will play, that's awesome.  And if they will continue to play over and over and over again, that's even more awesome.  I don't think Russia really expected this level of stupidity(*) on the part of the Ukrainians and probably took and adapted to the favorable the opportunity when it presented itself.  Better yet, if Russia can demilitarize and de-fang and probably even collapse NATO itself in the same manner, three-point score!.

What Russia seems to be doing is arranging favorable battle areas and opening them up little-by-little to let Ukraine feel like they are making progress.  Also they seem to be letting Ukraine come ever-so-close to some real win so the Ukroids will, in their desperation, stay dedicated to the false hope, but then slam the door and kill them by the thousands.  Like the forest in Kreminia/ for instance.  Fighting on a strip on the East side of the Oskal river is also very wise since it complicates logistics for the enemy in a disproportionate way.  Outclassing the enemy as Russia does makes it possible to temporarily cede land with the confidence that it could be re-taken pretty much at will.  Ukraine has to desperately hold every meter because they won't be back (without a Russian invitation.)  And, of course, their main weapon is public relations.

Kherson is a great example of another related trick:  vacate an indefensible place (probably temporarily) and gather souls from it as long as the enemy will play.  This works extra well in many places because most of the domestic population want the Russians to win and are almost certainly helping with targeting and such.  Somehow the Ukes are losing more men and material from across the river than on the front-lines in the part of Kharkiv which the Russians continue to sit on!  Ukraine will likely have to mostly leave Kherson even _without_ a frontal Russian assault.  The attrition rate is just to high in terms of equipment.

As most people who read my stuff know, I've been suspicious for a while now that Kiev's main goal in this operation is to lose as many useless-eater class slavics who infest 'their' land as possible.  With every 'mistake' made by the NaZiocons I get more convinced of this.

Take Bahkmud;  Kiev evacuated their chosen (the Nationalist swastika-bearing units) out a while ago and stuffed in all of the child soldiers, old men, etc that their commissars kidnapped from around the country that they could.  Exactly like stuffing handfuls of meat into a grinder.  Then they let the Russians close the flanks until there was only one muddy road in which is under fire control of the Russians from ranges where the Russian artillery is untouchable.  To top it off, they blew up the bridge needed for those who make it through the turkey-shoot.

(*)  These 'mistakes' are not novice mistakes on the part of military buffoons.  These are well executed plans to 'lose' by people who knew what they were doing.  I'm ever more convinced of it.  It makes perfect sense if you re-evaluate what 'losing' and 'winning' means to various people.

BTW, a very similar thing is happening in the U.S. with respect to the 'mistakes' made by their decision-makers related to NATO and this operation.  America is slotted for demolition also, and by the same basic groups of people.

Oh, that's easy. Move to Russia if you love it so much. And there you will see what is it like to live without freedom of speech, the very freedom you actually enjoy living in the US.
...

As far as I can tell that IS a valid criticism of Russia, and a lot of other countries to an even larger extent (including the one I choose.)  In order to be fair about things I have to factor in a lot about current affairs and legacy.  Openness and freedom of whatever have a lot to do with the confidence that the leaderships have, and that relates to how good a job they are doing in running their countries as well as the threat profile of their adversaries.

For my own purposes I am a lot more interested in 'trajectories' of countries than I am in today's on-the-ground reality.

The 'woke' West under increasingly tight globalist rule is doing a phenomenally poor job running their counties and as such their people are becoming disenchanted and the level of distrust and fear among the installed governmental heads is on the rise.  The fallout is seen in a drastic acceleration of censorship, surveillance, and control methods.

I could see a possibility that with more and more obvious failings of so-called 'Western Liberalism', and Russia's outstanding success economically, militarily, and morally as a result of the Ukraine event, their leadership will have the confidence to further open allow liberties to their people.  Time will tell.  My read is that a decent percentage of Russian people actually would desire and value such liberties.  I have no where near the same confidence in such desires on the part of the Chinese people, for instance.

For my part I choose and intermediate country which allows flexibility (for the wealthy at least) by virtue of inefficiency, corruption, poverty, etc.  I always expected that it could be an intermediate hang-out place to see how things evolve, but would be fine either way.  While I'm here I do my utmost to support the common people as much as possible.

Unfortunately it seems that the country I choose has thrown-in with the U.S. which is bound to fail in far-flung areas like S.E. Asia at least, and probably at home as well.  The previous leadership was probably not totally full of shit in his resistance, but he got pretty beat down by about the time I arrived and resistance had faded before the peeps really saw much of the big picture.

Alas, the global corporate technocrats probably will have the economic resources needed to buy off governments when the USD is no longer useful for that purpose and that's probably the way most 'developing' countries will go.  If at that point one of the more powerful global powers (e.g., Russia) is both livable and standing up to the technocrats, then I'll probably make a switch to there.

A little more than just 'deemed to be false'.  Anyone who even mentioned it were severely treated and most of those who had a presence which was more than insignificant lost their social media accounts for doing so.

The only comparably sensitive topic had to do with the 5G build-out which accelerated during he 'lock-downs' when most people were confined to house-arrest.  At least it did in my area and I heard similar stories from around the world.

Some people could argue that even if the laboratory leak theory is actually true, there were serious political issues of letting people to spread the word about it during the first days of the pandemic. Assuming the Unite States government knew it, if they were pushed to confirm it by popular pressure, then USA (and probably her international allies) would have been forced to antagonize China in an explicit way.

On the other hand, if they did not know it was true, then they would not like such theory to expand rapidly, for the same political reasons. in detriment of the free speech, I guess.

Also, here we also suffered a lock down, people that were found in the street after dusk were risking to get arrested or watch re-education videos (while arrested for a day).

It's been pretty clear for quite a while now that the U.S. was interested in promoting (with extreme prejudice) the bat-pangolin nonsense because SARS-cov-2 was an American/international-corporate 'technocratic' innovation primarily.  The Wuhan lab may or may not have had much do to with the gentic engineering other than some of the contract work.  Some people say the primary development work was done in the network of Ukrainian labs in fact but I've not seen any solid evidence for that (and have not looked real hard.)  The U.S. did some trial ballooning of blaming the Chinese and the Chinese made some fairly specific threats to expose exactly what happened because they know exactly what happened.  Those of us who are a little higher up on the understanding level could read the Chinese threats like a book, and it was rather amusing.  Anyway, the U.S. zipped their mouths tight and have kept them that way for a few years now.

You are right that it would not really be in the interest of the American corp/gov to let the cat out of the bag.  The flip side of the coin is that it is not in the Chinese interest either.  At least not at this time.

I spent half an hour conversing with a highly intelligent Russian expatriate today who recently moved away from Russia because he hates the war and its dissolved opportunities for his particular employment, and it was very enlightening. A few things he said:

- The majority of Russians don't support the war.
- Putin will remain in power until he's dead.
- Western Ukraine is filled with Nazis who hate people that aren't Ukrainian, don't speak the Ukrainian language.
- The war won't end until Russia has destroyed NATO bases in Ukraine.
- The war will end in about two years.
- Almost nobody in Russia really knows whats going on with the war or why it was started.

I think its intriguing that in 208 pages nobody brought up NATO bases in Ukraine.

There is no way to express 'NATO bases' to someone who has an at-par (aka, simplistic and thus useless) comprehension of what that means.  Plenty of people have mentioned, for instance, the bio-research facilities and the funding there-of.  If some nebulous entity says 'conspiracy theory' that's all it takes to completely shut off any further exploration of any quasi-related topics, and people like you remain incapable of every gaining any insight into how the world works.

Its also more apparent than ever that pro-war idiots in the US don't have the slightest clue what they're talking about. If he doesn't know, you don't know. There's no knowledge or understanding that you have that he doesn't have.

e.g., you.  At least until you started to make some progress today.  Hopefully.

For the Russians in this thread that feel a patriotic duty to support Russia, I still sympathize with that plight as many Americans were lead to believing the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan in 2001 was good, even though it was ultimately wrong... its a base human nature that is almost instinctual. However, you are still rooting for the death and destruction of innocents at the end of the day.

For my part as effectively a stateless person, an unbiased assessment is that Russia is doing pretty much the only thing which makes any sense for them.  Much more importantly, however, they are doing it as 'right' as it could possibly be done.  I have to acknowledge that as it is highly unusual historically.

I have limited confidence that Russia will stay on the 'straight-and-narrow' and won't get greedy, but for now all I can say is that for now they have my support.  If I were a Russian I may or may not feel similarly.  Even if I did basically support the leadership, I still might run-for-the-hills rather than get inducted.  Hard to know.

I did not know where to post this, so here it goes.
Today I realized Wuhan was trending on Twitter, the reason being that it seems the FBI has declared that they indeed has serious suspicions that Covid-19 was indeed the product of a laboratory leak in the city of Wuhan-China. The news is having such impact this morning that even CNN is reporting on it.

https://edition.cnn.com/2023/02/28/politics/wray-fbi-covid-origins-lab-china/index.html

This is quite ironic, considering that the laboratory theory was deemed to be false during the first months on the pandemic. Curious to see how this develops and affects the Chinese-American relations.

A little more than just 'deemed to be false'.  Anyone who even mentioned it were severely treated and most of those who had a presence which was more than insignificant lost their social media accounts for doing so.

User 'icopress' has a 'POV' thread that he uses for war-grifting and which he keeps tightly locked-down so that normal people cannot interfere with his game.  On it he worries as follows:

Also, There is something that worries and alarms me a little, since one of the forum users has ceased to be active
johhnyUA, was in the ranks of the volunteer corps since the beginning of the war.

I just wanted to assure him that the unusually repulsive person in question was alive and well (probably in Poland if not a several cubes away from you) a week or two ago because I had a run-in with him.  But if he really is in novo-naziskoya it is possible that something like this happened:

  And Another Leopard Ammo Loader Is Kidnapped In Broad Daylight
  https://www.bitchute.com/video/tIb5SGbx5WNP/

What the NaZiocons seem to have been doing is getting their people out of places like Bakhmud and replacing them with toothless territorial defense persons and conscripts/kidnapees in furtherance of the ethnic slavo-cleansing operation taking place in that area.  Works because life-expectancy in such areas are a matter of days, and there is no pressing need to even waste arms and ammunition by supplying the victims with it.

Seems like some of the Russian troops are fully aware of the game and do have some empathy for the victims that they are mowing down.  But the brainwashed people of Ukraine would rather die as slaves to their 'chosen' masters than revolt against them, so what-the-fuck is a guy to do?

---

Edit: Note to the Ruskies:  It's quite possible that your victims are under some form of chemical/electromagnetic induced psychological state of zombification.  You remember the vid of the Russian who risked his life to dis-arm the Ukroids in the hole and had to kill them?  Remember how they reacted?  Clearly there was something wrong with them mentally.  The West has had Ukraine as a test lab for all kinds of things for almost a decade.  We know they have been working on chemical and biological warfare stuff in all of those labs, and it's a fair bet that they have been up to research in various other evils as well.  I mean over and above simply sending kids to nazi-camp when they are especially malleable age-wise.

Anyway, it is best to have some empathy for some of the adversaries.  It just doesn't make sense that they are all bad without quite a bit of help, and it's possible that when people who are not 'given over to a reprobate mind' figure out some stuff, some of the victims could be rehabilitated.  Indeed, they might even be able to be turned around 180 and become part of the solution.  Looks like the Poles are under the same kind of psychological treatment, and they'll probably be used as the next group of cannon fodder.  Probably the whole 'pale of settlement' area is scheduled for an ethnic house-cleaning and they will use the Russian military as the cleaning-lady...for the souls that Pfizer de-pop shot didn't get.

NATO should be shooting down ALL Russian planes crossing into Ukraine/Donbas/Crimea and eliminating the Russian fleet in the Black Sea.
All without saying a word about it. If asked, well, we are investigating, blah, blah, we'll get back to you in 3 months (or when we are done).

I think that most normally wired people tend to trust and respect people who do what they say and say what they do , and don't those who weasel around doing sneaky creepy things which harm others.  That's probably why Russia is gaining worldwide respect and the 'collective West' is losing it.

It is amazing to see how some cultures are so proud of things like using other third-party aircraft to hide behind when they do stand-off missile attacks, then are so pleased about how clever they are.  As if you need special 'chosen' brain-power to think up the strategy of using innocent third-parties as human shields.  Disgusting, and especially so because it only works when the adversary is somewhat ethical and resistant to harming said third-parties.

Sadly for the 'collective West' and the U.S. in particular, they are currently led/controlled/owned by people who have the sneaky-creepy mentality.  It makes us all look bad, makes it a lot harder to negotiate since it's pointless to make agreements with liars, and puts us all in danger.  It takes a long time to build a reputation as a straight-shooter and only a short time to lose it.

If I were a Russian, I would be pleased with Putin for at least developing Russia's reputation no matter what I thought of his politics.  I am an American, and I've been so disappointed by the reputation we've developed that I left the place.  At least that was one of the reasons.


Otherwise, this conflict will spill over to the rest of Europe, Asia, and the rest of the world.

Sneaky surprise attacks and denials against adversaries using hidden proxy forces pretty much guarantee an increased rate of 'spillover' as Russia, Iran, Germany(!) etc are unlikely to tolerated them indefinitely, but spillover and conflagration seem to be exactly what those who've attained power to call the shots in the West badly want/need.

This desperation on the part of the West for a response is probably why the strategists on the Russian side (and others) are biding their time.  Don't give the enemy exactly what they are in need of at the moment; do it at a latter date when retribution is not useful to them.  But do log the entry in a ledger.

Time is on the side of the Russian axis, and a large part of the reason why has to do with they being trustworthy partners with which to form an alliance.

Imagine regurgitating rightwing and/or Russian propaganda without getting paid for it.

"rightwing and/or Russian propaganda" == literally anything the current 'woke' retards have not been programmed to believe is 'the way(tm)'.  And pretty much everything they have not been instructed on at all.

Notice that any independent thoughts or synthesis is automatically labeled 'conspiracy theory' by the woke-tards unless it unambiguously helps one of their 'latest things' (Soros, Zelenski, Fauci, Biden, Gates, Cuomo (until recently), Pfizer, Lockheed-Martin, etc.) or hurts a perceived enemy (e.g., Trump.)  In the latter case it is stone cold proven fact to them.  It's amazing to see them work tirelessly for Blackrock even as they rarely even know what it is.  It's occurring to me that that ignorant support phenomenon has probably been the norm in most fascist dictatorships.

Thankfully these clowns almost to a person got at least their first set of de-pop shots as instructed, and most of the time the boosters as well unless the first blast killed them.  And they will certainly be dosing up on the 'new flu' mRNA shots as well.  That means we thinking people (a lot of us old-school left-wingers included) won't have to suffer their idiocy for to much longer.

Thanks. I couldn't agree with you more about BRICS. When you look at the financial dealings that Joe and Hunter have been doing in China, probably they are quietly diversifying into BRICS, as well, as a hedge against failure in Ukraine.

Old Money has been draining out of the West and moving to China since Kissinger/Nixon.  They are enamored with the complaint population who are easily controlled by the totalitarian dictatorship (which they've also had a hand in building for over 100 years Mao being an alumnus of the Rockefeller system.)

When I say that it may be the case that 'the WEF crowd and Talmudics' may be using Ukraine as drill bit to finally scuttle the 'collective West' ship, that's what I mean.  To the extent that there is much light between these two groups, the members of both consider themselves 'stateless' and the have disdain national allegiances and that sort of thing.  The WEF even coined the term 'Davos Man' for themselves a number of years ago.  'Nations' can be useful tools in population exploitation, R&D, etc, but it is important to engineer things so that mutinies by the plebs are unlikely.  'Technocracy' shows the most promise, and 'the West' contains elements of the population most likely to resist effectively.  The larger of the Western societies need to be sunk at some point, and that time may be at hand.

You have a much better understanding of the history of the whole area around Russia. Is there anything you can tell us about the legendary Tartaria nation from the distant past, that controlled most of the northern half of the Northern Hemisphere around the world, way back?
...

The 'distant past' is a confusing tangle of ethnic, military, and religious events.  Same as most areas.  I consider it of relatively minimal importance...but mostly because it doesn't involve me perhaps, although I don't give much of a fuck about my own 'linage' either so I'm not wired that way I guess.  Plus, I'm an American and we have kind of a cultural distrust of such things due to our own 'melting pot' traditions.  At least us older West Coast ones.

Much of my 'knowledge' comes from Wikipedia which is an especially deficient source when it comes to an understanding of anything of contemporary political significance.  I've simply not integrated disperate sources of info on this topic and analyzed them for years when it comes to this topic.  Sorry.

In reading it Wikipedia again just now, it remains unclear to me what the 'consensus' view of Russia among the Crimean Tartars might be now.  Two notable factors are worth considering:  One is that Russia today is not the Soviet Union prior to it's collapse, but how much said labeled ethnic group correlates the two is not clear.  Secondly, the ethnic cleansing of the area under the Soviets was extreme and even longer-lasting than most such operations they undertook.  'Crimea' probably did vote in a super-majority to align with Russia in 2014, but almost certainly that had to do with the ethnic makeup which was very strongly a result of Soviet era programs.

I couldn't say who most 'Crimean Tartars' would tend to hate more between Kiev and Moscow, but they have legacy reasons for complaints against both (and, historically speaking, both slavic groups have experienced insults from the 'Crimean Tartars' as well to be fair.)  Ultimately, being basically a minority in their own 'motherland', it doesn't matter as much when it comes to voting.

The question now is whether one would be better off from 2023 forward aligned with BRICS or with the 'Collective West' (for as long as either one lasts.)  If it were me, I would certainly choose BRICS for a variety of reasons.

Poor Ukraine... but they kind of deserve it. For example, Crimea was a part of Ukraine for a long time, until Russia liberated her a few years ago. What they should do is change Crimea's name to something else, and change Ukraine's name to Crimea. Why? Because Ukraine really IS Crimea.


Not really that long.  Khrushchev shuffled Crimea into the Ukraine administrative region for internal political reasons in the 1950's.  Prior to that, the Crimean population was victimized by communist population shuffling because that's a favorite trick Bolshevik-inspired political thinkers (though they hardly invented it.)

Seems that the Crimean Tartars have dis-liked the Kiev-area psychos for a long time, and since the Ukrainian common underlying disposition has been lain bare following the 2014 coup it is very easy to understand why the Crimean's don't want anything to do with them.  Of course the Crimeans had plenty of problem with the Bolsheviks, Stalinist, etc from the Soviet power center reigions as well, but who hasn't?  I'm going to guess that they had issues with the czars prior to that.

Occam's Razor (and history) suggests that everyone wants Sevastopol for military reasons and those who missed it on the 2014 game of cake-walk (e.g., the 'Collective West') have not given up on their hope to somehow win it in the end.  Hopefully they don't start a nuclear war over it.

Why then did they invade Kharkiv and Kyiv?

Russia invaded neither city, nor did they try real hard.  They threatened them in order to pull Ukrainian forces from other areas which they did intend to keep.  


Even the boomer Russians know that the first couple months of the war were a failure for Russia.

Almost all of what most boomers 'know' is wrong (Bill Casey FTW!.)  That's one of the reasons why the planners tend to be older.  At least that is the case in countries who's governments are not bent on the destruction of said country.  If you are one of the 'order out of chaos' types then you'll want to collapse things, and there is no surer way to do it than to put boomers in charge.  The more 'pinko'/'eviro'/'transo'/'fago'/'generally-fucked-up-o', etc the better.

Maybe lay off the incel conspiracy youtube channels and stick to something closer to reality like RT or something.

RT is gross propaganda of the same nature as any other like media entity anywhere.  As usual, you have to figure out the how, why where elements of their shtick.  In this case, if the plebs think that the soft-touch was a mistake, it will justify the taking off of the gloves.  Doing so is probably what the leadership has decided is, regrettably, the most logical path forward.

RT, and Russia generally, seems to be gunning for the 'factual' end of the media landscape.  Not probably because they are especially honest, but more because the other end of the spectrum (that is to say, completely fabricated blatant bullshit all day every day) is already taken by the Western media.  From my standpoint as a 'truther', it makes RT slightly more valuable for hard facts than, say, CNN.  They are still propaganda though, and thus fundamentally in the same basic mainstream media category.

Why then did they invade Kharkiv and Kyiv?

Russia invaded neither city, nor did they try real hard.  They threatened them in order to pull Ukrainian forces from other areas which they did intend to keep.  Of course Russia would have been happy if Ukraine would have surrendered since it would further one of the goals.  Namely 'de-nazification'.  But they never put the forces together to win these cities militarily against a determined adversary.  They, and every other competent person can see this.

Why did they level cities in Luhansk and Donbas?

Moscow studiously avoided doing so when practical in all areas, but most particularly the one's they plan to incorporate into the federation.  Kiev wasted a lot of ammo trying to do so in Donetsk, and still does for reasons known only to the NaZiocons.  You'll have to ask them, but I would suggest that expending ammo on trying to kill civilians detracted from their ability to fight Russians and contributed to the generally poor performance in terms of logistics and strategy.

Why did they level Mariupol?

To get rid of the Nazis.  Next question?

Why are they bombing apartment buildings in Kyiv, Lviv, or Odesa?

Generally they avoid it unless there is a high-value target.  Most of the time when a seemingly benign civilian target is hit, it's traced back to errant Ukrainian air defences.  Of course Ukraine and the Western propaganda always say 'Russia did it', but their proclaimations are completely without value to anyone who is somewhat infomed and observant.  They will always say the same thing, within minutes, no matter what the details.

It is obvious what they want to do. They want to annex the whole of Ukraine and kill anyone who is not agreeing with it.

It's obvious they don't, and they would only do so under extreme duress.  It would not 'accomplish the mission' of de-nazification anyway since the West would absorb the Nazi-types as 'refugees' and keep them busy with operations like the 'Charleston' hoax.

Do you think if they take control over the four oblasts that they already 'annexed' on paper that they will not want to go and annex Odesa and Moldova? Of course, they will.

At this point, they very well might.  The economic and strategic value will make up for the reparations that the West obviously won't be paying to Russia.

They are Nazis and they want to exterminate Ukrainians.

Very possible that they are generally on-board and in bed with the WEF and Talmudic and designers of this whole engineering effort.  I cannot rule it out.

Their plan is to slowly grind Ukraine and Ukrainians into ashes.

What's very very amusing is that the geenyuses in the U.S. were dead-set on turning Ukraine into a quagmire or 'another Vietnam' which would sap Russia and they were positively gloating about it.  In reality it turned into exactly the opposite.  Russia is doing quite well on the world stage (in part because most of the world is sick of Western bullshit and only stick around for the bribe money), and the 'collective West' is bleeding out at an impressive rate.

I suggest that the WEF types knew this would happen and welcomed it.  The Talmudics running the U.S. most likely as well.  Some of the low-level Neocons (e.g., Jake Sullivan) may well have believed the bullshit that he had a hand in creating.  That's why to real powers install not-very-bright people into fairly high level positions.

How many of these fanciful inventions have we seen from the 'Ghost of Kiev' on down?  Thousands?  How many have had any factual basis?  I'm struggling to think of one.

If I were into making up stories to boost moral, I would have expected that over-reliance on them would have exhausted the credulity of everyone who had even the basic mental capabilities necessary to use a computer to post on a forum.  I'd have been wrong.

It does seem to be the case that some of the officers charged with taking the settlements South of Ugledar half a year ago were a little bit to exuberant and got a bunch of Russians soldiers killed...and got spanked pretty hard by the leadership for their indiscretion.  They were generally the Chechens I think, and the Checken soldiers are a bit to enthusiastic sometimes.  More recently there was a pretty bad day or two for the Russians in the same area having to do with a minefield mostly.  Sucks, but that's war.  No way 1/5 or so of the total Russian losses came in one battle as the bullshit western propaganda would like their idjuts readers to believe.

One way or another, an enemy without accurate info who holds false beliefs is the kind of enemy which is nice to have.  Most of the time anyway, and in the present conflict where the State Dept idiots wanted to suck Russia into a 'war of attrition' and ended up stuck in the tar-baby themselves, it is.  Of course what a drug-addled (and thus 'twichy') basement dwelling loser believes or doesn't believe is of little consequence to anyone.

Now we're cooking with gas:

The good people of the region need to stand up for themselves and their families while they still can.  That is to say, before the NaZiocons sacrifice the whole native population in preparation for their WEF sponsored 'great reset' plans.

At least Putin's belated decision do a modest special military operation gave people in the Western areas a window of opportunity to save themselves (without abandoning their family and homes and leaving the area altogether.)  Hopefully they can act as a model for when totalitarian fascists in other countries try to seize power as happened with Maidan.
