The country is still a gas station/lumber depot but at least he stopped the territorial bleeding and gave Russia a tenable if semi-synthetic post-Soviet national identity |

Date: September 3rd, 2024 10:24 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin Consistent economic decline over the last 10 years coinciding with emergence of crony state capitalism, all completely unchecked by any meaningful reform, isn’t a strong performance. Russia is incredibly resource rich - it really shouldn’t be nearly as much of a shithole full of suffering poor people as it is.

Putin is crushing it! |

Date: September 4th, 2024 4:55 PM Author: Bat Shit Crazy Deer Antler you do realize Putin was starting from a failed state and we were starting from the greatest empire of all time right? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5588408&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310684",#48049008) |

Date: September 4th, 2024 4:57 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin no. Putin took over 20 years ago and has had total control since. He’s fully culpable for the state of Russia today.
Now, back to the discussion at hand. You conflated America’s and Russia’s economic performance over the last 10 years. Can you go ahead and back that up for me champ?
I know you’re an ignorant retard who literally doesn’t know anything, about any topic, but try to think like a rational person for a few minutes and see what kind of argument you can come up with here.
Good luck! |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 4:59 PM Author: Bat Shit Crazy Deer Antler no one said they were precisely equal, and apparently you don't understand how the starting point might constrain performance so I think I'll just leave you to drool and stare at the well (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5588408&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310684",#48049037) |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 5:16 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin Above you said that I could swap in America for Russia. Sounds like you’re saying they are exactly equal before. Whoops!
What’s your new position? You’re not very good at this you seem to be all over the map! Try again to think like a smart person instead of a retarded shitcon :-) |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 5:17 PM Author: Bat Shit Crazy Deer Antler the sentence said "decline" not a specific rate of decline that can be matched on a 1 to 1 basis, but then I guess english is hard (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5588408&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310684",#48049126) |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 5:22 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin Okay cool, so your new position is both countries’ economies have declined in the last 10 years. Do you think this alleged decline is roughly equivalent? 10% variation? Say more, bitch boi. And try to prove it with some data.
*cue outraged nonsensical reply* |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 3:12 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin That wasn’t very well sourced. Could you use some data to back up your assertion that Russian and American economic performance over the last 10 years has been equal?
Or nah? |

Date: September 4th, 2024 4:58 PM Author: Lime vigorous space turdskin That’s not an especially compelling argument either.
Put on your thinkin’ cap and try again little buddy! |

Date: September 4th, 2024 3:18 PM Author: haunting cream gas station fortuitous meteor LJL at this flame. First of all you have to look at what this war has actually done to Russia's economy and incomes. The economy is red hot. Incomes have never been higher. Russia is now technically a high income country per the World Bank. Average Ivan has never had it this good. The cities are immaculate. Crime doesn't happen. Russians now consumer less alcohol per capita than Americans. They have a lower suicide rate. They have a national purpose and a shared ideology. Chechens and shit are now huge patriots. Industry is massively revived. It's all been 180 as fuck. We learned what real national power is and that soft Yankee power can suck a dick. Power is making 10000 Iskanders a year.

Date: September 4th, 2024 3:22 PM Author: haunting cream gas station fortuitous meteor The lesson of Ukraine is the Soviets were right about what constitutes real power. Power is not in the S&P.

hell, even Lukashenko is a better president than Putin ever was |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 6:12 PM Author: sienna federal mad-dog skullcap The Byelorussians employ the same tactics and styles of administration that the security state carcass that pulled Russia back together post-loot frenzy does. There's not that much of a difference there in style of governance, while Russia faces more threats from within and without than any of its breakaway nations As for Ukraine in the concurrent period, they had the advantage of forming a new polity with the looted armaments and infrastructure of the USSR, while still enjoying some support from the East and West The challenges and resources available aren't really comparable |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 6:34 PM Author: Zippy milky pit goyim main point is that Lukashenko keeps corruption at a relatively low level while Putin is the thief on chief of the whole operation. the rot is deep and pervasive
lol @ Ukraine looting Soviet shit. it’s very much the other way around |
|
Date: September 4th, 2024 6:39 PM Author: sienna federal mad-dog skullcap Afaik they just keep it under wraps better. It's also a much smaller and less ethnically fractious country so regime control ops are simple. Less dense, traditional power structures still in place throughout, minimal urban territory and all the challenges that come with that (many urbs) If Putin manages to keep NATO out of Ukraine and rallies the entire provincial base around a foreign enemy he'll probably he hailed as a Restorer of the Republic type roman leader a couple decades down the line |

Date: September 4th, 2024 6:54 PM Author: Zippy milky pit goyim Lmao no, russia has already lost this war and it’s the death knell of the russian empire
you’re dreaming |

|
Date: September 4th, 2024 6:41 PM Author: sienna federal mad-dog skullcap I also think the intel circle that worked around and under Putin basically had to resort to appropriation measures to retain Russia's territorial integrity.

Date: September 4th, 2024 6:55 PM Author: irradiated stain No. Putin was very similar to any typical dirtbag from Latin America or Arab states like saddam or kaddafi that the west could easily manipulate. He could've easily sent the army to Kiev in 2014 to stop American Led coup. But he wanted to get invited to those meetings with the west. If he kept ukr and Kazakhstan China would've dealt with Russia like equals. Now China looks at Russia the same way it looks at Iraq or africa.

Date: September 4th, 2024 7:32 PM Author: sienna federal mad-dog skullcap re your original point I believe the idea was that Russia was going to get more properly integrated into the US led security (and economic) umbrella over the EU which is what caused that thaw. I think the guy hates the US more than many in Russia even before getting burned by the Obama-Biden administrations There has always been that strange slavic ethnosubmission to Western Europe's cultural standards throughout history though 🤷 |
