    “Apparently, the enemy is striving to improve its negotiating positions in the future,” Putin said Monday. “But what kind of negotiations can we even talk about with people who indiscriminately strike at civilians, at civilian infrastructure?”

      It’s cute that you think Putin is feeling any of these consequences himself.

        He is. They are striking gas refineries and abilities for Russia to make money. As Czar, that hits him in the pocketbook.

              You know, I mean it’s the same thing if a man carries a little bag, a little purse in his hand, you know? That’s all it is, it’s a little purse. It’s a purse; that’s all. Some guys can’t handle that word. Some guys who carry them can’t even call it that. They’ll say, “Where’s my little bag?” I say, ”fuck you it’s your purse. Pick it up and get out of here will you?” I mean if you can’t handle the word, don’t carry the bag. That’s all it is a little purse. I got one, big deal. What does it mean? But some people like to taunt you they’ll say, “Is that your purse?” And I say, “Yes it is and I have a picture of your mother in here sucking off an Indian.” And that seemed to satisfy their curiosity.

                  Yeah, we lost a national treasure when he died. I was really lucky to have seen him live. I think he had a cold, because he sounded sick and he was a little off, but it was absolutely worth it anyway.

      Who is downvoting you??? I used to think it was a bot going around downvoting people, but now I think it’s one asshole guy just going around Lemmy, and downvoting EVERYTHING.

      Or maybe it’s two guys. The two muppets in the balcony at the muppet show who hate everything.

        Russian astroturfers. I would have hoped lemmy was too small for them to care but they are here. They are doing a horrible job and Putin should arrest all of them. They need bodies for the border anyway.

          If they were doing a good job, then Russia coverage would be more pro-Russia wouldn’t it? They can always get women to operate the troll farms, gotta feed more meat into the grinder at the front!

            They have to be discreet. If they’re too obvious they’ll get called out and their efforts will backfire.

        I don’t think Statler and Waldorf hate everything, they’re just old AF and see everything as an absurd waste of time.

        I didn’t downvote them, but I understand why. It’s a meme reply brought over from Reddit and dropped everywhere, which adds nothing of value.

      Honestly Russia is getting off easy in this case, if Ukrainian invaders had the same barbaric attitude the Russians had moving into Eastern Ukraine, we’d be seeing a lot of fucking warcrimes, rapes and looting as the army moved through. It’s possible there are isolated incidents of that, but on the whole I’ve not heard any reports, where in summer 2022 it was a weekly fucking thing for video to pop up of Russians doing just that.

      They could collect fallen ruzzian dicks and keep them in a freezer for when putin keels over. I can see it now in the news… this morning putins burial site next to the Walmart dumpster was found to be covered with real frozen dicks…

      Not a lot of guys would volunteer for the war if they saw where their dicks would eventually collect.
