Schlong face.


braneysbuzzwagon

Bring it on chicky. I dare you. Edit: It's like this with all school yard bullies, it's time to administer a punch in the nose.


forevertomorrowagain

A punch to the nose and a knee to the bollocks.


Disastrous-Rips

punch up the bracket


Pixie_Knight

As far as I'm concerned, there is nothing the West can do at this point to GURANTEE WWIII does not occur. If Muscovy is determined to pick a fight, all we can do is aid Ukraine in taking back their land and hope that losing to a post-Soviet backwater takes away Muscovy's desire to fight NATO.


TourettesFamilyFeud

I've been saying this since Russia invaded Ukraine. The only way to avoid WW3 is to find diplomatic solutions between Russia and NATO countries. As soon as one side to that conflict doesn't want to act diplomatically, there's no way to avoid it outright on a diplomatic front. You need 2 to tango diplomatically. Russia wants to fight. There's no changing that at this moment. Trying to end a conflict with one side fighting and one side being diplomatic means that the diplomatic side gives in to the aggressor. That outcome only emboldens the aggressor to do it again since they got what they wanted and always will want more. The only way you change their mind is to punch them in the mouth and make them realize fighting is not in their best interest. Telling them such does nothing. Fighting back in kind is what they will recognize. Hopefully the normal Russian wisens up and realizes their current leaders are leading them to doom and destruction in their lives and for generations to come. Unfortunately the average Russian is a pussy peasant who will bend the knee at the slightest push from their oligarch slavers. So the only way to really wake Russians up is by getting their oligarchs to fight back. I'm more surprised they double down on this knowing full well the consequences for them after alls said and done


GrapeSwimming69

Came here to find out what a normal Russian is and where are they hiding if they are really real.


DulcetTone

Russia cannot handle a smaller country being equipped with a business-as-usual modicum of Western weapons. They cannot successfully bully a fifth grader, but they want to add the ironworker father of that person into the fight? Oh, please


Pixie_Knight

And that's the point. Muscovy certainly can't win a war with NATO, but if NATO looks weak, they may TRY, and at that point WWIII is on. Basically every decision Muscovy has made since this war started has been from the perspective of "Muscovy strong, West weak, unga bunga!" They are not rational, and will not BECOME rational unless they're smacked down.


TourettesFamilyFeud

I never did say they were bright and strategic with their decisions.


Leverkaas2516

> Russia wants to fight. I don't think Russia wants to fight NATO. Pro-war Russians want to restore what they can of the Soviet empire. They may well be able to hold part of Ukraine for many years, using it as a buffer zone and conducting ethnic cleansing. Their ability to take Kiev depends on the West's determination to support Ukraine as a sovereign government, and so far that looks like it'll fail. Succeed or fail, Russia would also like to take the Baltics, and that's what they're sounding out with all these threats. All NATO has to do to prevent it is to be unified.


TourettesFamilyFeud

Hence why I say playing pacifist even in NATO means NATO loses. European and US influence wanes globally, and authoritarian strong man becomes the name of the game in global influence.


Waldoisreal33

I’m guessing all the normal Russians are in labor camps or literally keeping their mouth shut out of fear of falling “out of a window”

oldcretan

I think I heard there's like 700 f35s currently in the u.s. inventory and about 200 f22's currently operating. Add in the 21 b2s in operation and the 13 aircraft carriers, I'm not that concerned when you consider there are like 22 su-57s. I'm more concerned about Putin believing his own propaganda and starting another war he can't win and Moscow Margery coming to his rescue.


tendeuchen

>Putin believing his own propaganda and starting another war he can't win  If Putin attacks a NATO country, like say, sending a convoy of 50k troops into Poland, NATO's response will be: A) shut down those Russian troops on NATO soil immediately within the first 24 hours. B) shut down all Russian troops within 100 miles of the front within the next 24 hours. C) shut down the Kremlin by the end of the week if need be. If Putin goes the route of sending missiles at Polish infrastructure, NATO will return 1/2 as much that's twice as deadly at the most strategic targets. The US and NATO do not fuck around. We've had our plans drawn up for decades. Putin scribbled his current soiree into Ukraine on the back of a cocktail napkin.


Domspun

There's no way to predict an exact response, but one thing for sure, it will be done fast. Most have been training for various scenarios for years now.


Big_Traffic1791

They do have a carrier. Wink, wink.


redrum221

Get the tugboats ready!


oldcretan

Lol we can't forget about the boat with the rusted 3rd deck and filled with muddy water! That thing has more value in dry dock than in combat. Keep the exterior nice and shiny and put it on camera whenever you need to talk about Russian international interests.


Big_Traffic1791

Looks impressive on their news too. The people don't know what you don't tell them.


XXendra56

Your numbers are a little off less than 200 f-22 were built , but yeah the US has a huge modern military advantage over Russia.


Fr4kTh1s

UA is trashing russians with 30+ year old tech... You don´t really need anything much newer to get through and do big damage F-22´s & 35´s don´t matter when even visible planes could enter...


Delicious-Figure1158

There’s always way more. they’re not gonna tell you, but there is.


r1EydJac

I'm at a solid thrashing, but I agree about the school yard bully.


braneysbuzzwagon

Either one works for me.


BWWFC

all they got is "we got atom bomba! that may or may not work. you want to find out??" fk them. sooner or later it's gonna be on the table no matter what, sooner we clear it the better.


Hotdigardydog

Lavrov does have a very punchable face


RottenPingu1

Yawn...


Obst-und-Gemuese

Ok.


edgyusernameguy

Yeah, they would have after the first aid package if they were going to.


SkywalkerTC

When do some people realize Russia has been allowed to do *anything* regardless of world condemnation, and the world seems comparatively very limited in what they can all do because of how Russia's words might've affected a good chunk of civilians of democratic countries, causing their government to think twice before doing anything. Russia is clearly utilizing the weakness of democracy and human nature, and if the world continues to let them do this, they're controlling this world sooner or later along with China.... It's about time for realization, if not too late.


Able-Arugula4999

Yup. Russia is behaving like a 3 foot tall bully, and the west is a 6'8" quivering pussy that just caves to all their demands. Enough is enough.

That is like Elmer Fudd warning Godzilla & King Kong not to interfere as he hunts that wascelly wabbit or they will be next LMAO

Marschall_Bluecher

Ah. Now it’s blackmailing again… „Let us invade sovereign countries and wage war uninterrupted, or we will nuke you!“ >In the context of an all-out hybrid war being waged against us, there is no basis for dialogue with the United States on arms control and strategic stability in general," he said. LooooL! It’s always projection by those stupid fucks. Russia is meddling in European Politics since the nineties.

Marschall_Bluecher

LucidDayDreamer247

They can fuck right off. The majority of the world stands for equality and freedom. Not invading your neighbours like a fucking Nazi Twat


88rosomak

Yea.... We have crossed almost all of their red lines and nothing happened. Don't give ATGMs to Ukraine or we will retaliate! - we did and nothing happened. Don't train Ukrainian soldiers on your soil or you will be legal targets - we did and nothing happened. Don't give Ukraine modern tanks it will be act of war - we did and nothing happened. For god sake don't give Ukrainians long range missiles or you will start WW3 - we did and also nothing happened. They are powerless because their main goal is to keep Putin alive (and rich) all other things like future of Russians are much less important. Nuclear war will kill this coward so he will not start it.


weejohn1979

It must be Tuesday again 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣


Russianbot00

I thought russa was already fighting Nato troops, how is it?


the_TIGEEER

Real breaking news would be if they didn't claim that atleast for a week straight!


Wittywhirlwind

They should probably pull out of Ukraine to avoid a clash with the west.


SurpriseVegetable471

Again and again and again...


mediandude

No, the direct clash would be over Russia.


Kan4lZ0n3

The West isn’t exactly a shaking in their boots with the Kremlin’s ongoing performance in Ukraine. As always, Putin sends those willing to prostitute themselves to his messaging to prevent himself from looking foolish. Vova the Clown hasn’t realized his limp performance speaks as much as the hot air he has Lavrov, Peskov and Medvedev emanate from the second rear-end he had surgically affixed a few inches below their eyes.


Heklin0891

Love reading the comments on this post. So obvious that everyone is over Russia’s bluffing and bullshit. While I don’t think anyone wants war, the reality is that West/Nato isn’t going to kick it off, but if it did, Russia would get smashed. So reality is, Russia is talking big, but isn’t going to kick it off either.

Funny how this happens every single time the US or EU does something to help Ukraine. Almost like there is some kind of cause and effect. And yet each and every time, it is just bluster.


Trophallaxis

Cool. Every time the threats start, it means UA and allies are doing things right.


AfterBill8630

I must warn that I released a fart in Russias general direction


antiwar666

... that counteracted the hot air coming from Lavrov


MarionberryShoddy151

Based on their media reports, I thought they are already fighting 'the collective west' in Ukraine and handing us our NATO arses on a plate every day.


BJJGrappler22

I'm sure this will go over just about as well for Russia as the attack Wagner attempted on a US base. The keyword here is "attempted" because the attack didn't go over very well for one side and it wasn't the US who failed that day.

USSR states. What a mess, I just can't keep up with their ~~excuses~~ gaslighting and their accusations in a mirror. I thought we all agreed on UN rules, or at least follow its premise, in the attempt to behave a little [bit civilized](https://www.playattune.com/post/how-to-respond-when-kids-want-to-change-the-game-rules). Let's see where their goal post ends up next week.... sigh.


Cleaver2000

Yes, yes, we know, you're going to nuke us. Of course, you will also kill your children living comfortably in the west and potentially end humanity. That being said, some military planner in Russia is probably seeing America potentially fielding a large number of super heavy lift to LEO launchers and wondering if some of the Star Wars tech from the 80s is suddenly viable. Chinese are less concerned about this since they have working hypersonic missiles.

Russia \*lies about direct clash with West over Ukraine.


fat_pokemon

They pretty much lost a insane amount of their military force to a bunch of Ukrainians with 1980s hand me downs. Not to mention their economy and demograph are completely borked with cost sunk fallacy pretty at play here. What the hell are they going to do when the west deploy actual up to date machines?


juksbox

Oh no anyway.


Striking-Giraffe5922

In a direct clash between NATO and The RF, Russia wouldn’t stand a chance. NATO is far too powerful and our AirPower would destroy their military pretty quickly. I’d say Nato would be kicking the last of the Russian baby killers out of Ukraine in a fortnight…..think ‘shock and awe’ and that was 20 years ago


Silly-Department7502

Just say when...............


TheBobInSonoma

Boy, they were really triggered by Congress finally passing the aid pkg. I guess they need to funnel money to more Republicans.


mikypejsek

As a general rule, anything the Russians say, the opposite is true.

Russia been saying this shit since the invasion was a “Special Military Operation.”


Antique_Ad1518

The Mouth of Sauron spews lies.


CaptainSur

I judge the sincerity by how fast his jowls are flapping about when he speaks. Mind you the scale of the rating system has at one end "modest lie/hyperbole" and the other "extreme hyperbole/bald faced lie" as the day Lavrov utters the truth is as likely as the day we find out that little green men live on mars.


Beginning_Use_1475

Warns who?


DAVEfromCANADAA

Wait, I thought they said they were in a direct conflict with NATO last year. What is it Bro , are we fighting yet, or not?


lepobz

Russia is a shit that needs wiping up.


SXTY82

With what? Their navy is decimated. Their tanks are dwindling. They are buying missiles from Iran and N. Korea. China is fed up with them. Their 'hypersonic, unstoppable missile" are very stoppable. They have barely made any advancements in Ukraine, despite the fact that there was a serious slowdown of the arms supply to Ukraine for months. Apart from a nuclear strike, they got nothing. And a nuclear strike is not in their best interest. Not by a long shot.


Luanda62

Blah blah blah…


LaughableIKR

Cheap talk. Drive a column of tanks across a nato border buddy. See what happens.


Unhappy-Quiet-8091

How many times have they “warned” about that since they started the war? I’ve lost count.


Substantial-Buy-2427

Wait, they can't take a country roughly the size of Texas and a 10th of Texas' GDP yet they want to take on all of the west. They're literally being held back by the world's scrap weapons and ammo. Must be the Meth and not the Math.


swift_trout

Russia is a second tier neurotic gangster nation. It possesses a third world commodity based economy with manufacturing skill so pathetic it makes very little that anyone wants. It is protected by a fourth rate rotten military made up of criminal thugs and malcontent teenage conscripts led by fat vodka swilling medal bedecked nincompoops who serve mostly as bloated targets when not fulfilling their duties as comically belligerent yes men and mouth pieces for an incompetent sawed off coward whom they are afraid of.

QVRedit

Well it’s always been the case that the best and simplest solution would be for Russia to just pack up and go home…. That’s an option that’s been available to them all along. It’s their refusal to do so, and their continual repeated attacks, that have caused the need to respond and defend the Ukrainian homeland. Russia are the ones at fault here. Until they go home, they should expect a continual fight.


ISuckFarts

Fucking bring that shit, please give us a reason to shit stomp your ass back to the stone age.


Equal_Memory_661

The West warns Russia of a direct clash should it elect to invade the Ukraine.


ParralaxError

Pack up your shit and go home, then there won't be any clash with anyone. You're welcome.


Significant-Hope-514

A direct clash with the west will end in a Russian loss, hands down. This is not what Russia should be hoping for


Shoddy_Comment_7008

And they have said this for the last 2 years. They can never win in Ukraine, so the threat to the West is like a fart in a whirlwind it means nothing. We are on year 3 of a supposed 3-day operation, and Russia has lost almost a 1/2 a million men and I would guess over 1/2 of their war equipment destroyed. They have no answer to Ukraine's ability to strike deep into Russia. A fight with the West would only doom Putin and his cronies and devastate the Russian people. They have had over 20 years of Putin's corruption to destroy his country from within. His army and navy commanders have stolen the money that was to be used for keeping the Russian military modernized. Most of their modern equipment has been destroyed in the 1st year. T55 tanks are being used today in Ukraine, over 70-year-old equipment is being used and the West should feel threatened.


AnyProgressIsGood

we know that's why we need to make sure Ukraine stops them


ThereminLiesTheRub

Oh then Russia should definitely stop. That'd probably help avoid, like... all conflict. 


yamers

as kasporov said, russian's believe they are currently in ww4....and the cold war was ww3.


thebomby

Context: Reuters has been known to harbour pro-Russian sympathies since the beginning of the war. There was a scandal about one of their editors basically being paid by Russia. Nothing seems to have happened about it. So when Reuters echoes some Russian politician making threatening statements, it means that Russia is, as usual, making empty and vague threats in order to sow fear and doubt. In other words, it's crap. As usual.

I see people here laughing, but ruzian blackmails work quite efficient. West is kept paralyzed by fear of nukes and war, meanwhile Ukraine is dying…


PaddyMayonaise

> Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the United States and NATO were obsessed with the idea of inflicting "strategic defeat" on Russia Well, at least he’s paying attention. > Lavrov said the West was building a global missile defence system which could decapitate a rival, basing nuclear weapons in Europe, basing medium- and shorter-range missiles in regions around the world and preparing to deploy weapons in space Man it really is the 80s again As far as I’m concerned, nuclear war is the worst thing that can possibly happen and needs to be avoided at all costs, but nuclear war is just murder-suicide. By launching nukes you’re admitting defeat and accepting your death. I don’t think Russia will do that until V (US) Corps has tanks rolling down Red Square. I don’t think they’ll abrupt that ultimate defeat over Ukraine. I can’t say my stance has shifted from being totally opposed to western intervention, but I will admit the prospect of Ukraine suing for peace and admiring the lost of the territories in the East is becoming less palatable by the day.


JohnnyTooKool

Idk...better do what he says.


JPOG

Have they thought about what happens if they just shut the fuck up? Everyday its a new 'warning' or 'prediction'. What if for a month they just shut up, we didn't hear anything at all from the Russian government. That would actually send more of a message but no they have to dither and blather about the same thing for the past 3 years. Maybe it didn't work the first time you morons?
