Olga is way more snappy than usual. She is usually a cold bitch, but she seems out of her comfort sone there. I can’t imagine why :slight_smile:

Some Ukrainian “Nato Nazi” scratched her Volga? Maybe she can’t import “Z” case for her new iPhone 14 Pro? Or Gucci can’t import and personalize her new fav bag with CCCP lettering?

Just thinking out loud…

The directive to shift the propaganda to portray Russian victimhood is in full gear.

To be fair, it has been going on for a while. But yeah, explaining why they are the victim of the cruel West and how that explains military and economic setbacks is now absolutely a priority it seems. And it seems like most oft he Russian media has got that memo.

it’s gaslighting on a national scale, truly sickening to watch. from the top of the shit-pile, trickling down to the common Russian who will pay for it in their blood.

in a way, it’s like the MAGA movement but far more sinister. Braying for blood in the name of the republic.

Agree with every word almost. I don’t want to derail this, but I am honestly not sure the MAGA movement is any better than the Z movement. If Trump was dictator and called for MAGA to support a war he had unleashed upon an innocent country, I fear most of it would have been no better than the Russians. We are lucky Trump was president in a country where he was unable to stage a successful coup and become dictator with unlimited power. I doubt Trump is a “kinder” man than Putin, doubt he has better morals. In a way, I think Trump is almost worse, since Putin wants to build an empire for Russia and history. Trump is just for Trump and I suspect he would sell kin for power. Thankfully we will never know as Trump will never be allowed such power in the US.

I am sorry for derailing it. I know many will not agree and I hope I don’t offend anyone. And please do not think I am defending Putin.

But yeah, agree. Z movement is obviously much more scary due to Russian political culture.

Yep. It’s why they need to feel the pain.

This starts to look like 1917: discontent, armed soldiers starting to ask strong questions from the officers (they treat us like cattle) and from the government. This is only a small group of course, but probably reflects the mood among a lot of conscripted men right now.
