as always in such cases, I guessed right.
I'm very, very angry with myself.
And what was the point of all this?..
In the world, people are starving, homeless people are sleeping in basements, and "this Lokken!.."
...
Okay.
Something got to me.
Whatever.
In such cases, I usually don't allow myself to wallow in despair for too long. But this time, I messed up. Am I getting old?
Ugh..
Damn it...
In short, I was wrong. About everything. Now I'm full, healthy, and happy again. Let's say that. The end of the story.

...Twelf, strangely enough, I often hear such conversations. And the ultimate demagogue is Mikhail Zadornov.
"Only a Russian person!..
We'll crush everyone!"
But it's all self-deception. Brilliant in its simplicity. That's the slovenly character of our citizen.
It's not the 19th, or even the 20th century anymore. Today, technology decides everything. "Those" rockets won't save us. I read an article about them. There are very few of them, and the Americans have plenty of rockets. Besides, they are actively developing all sorts of gadgets, hoping to control near-Earth orbit.
I'm not panicking, on the contrary, these facts give meaning to existence. If there is a war, and we don't die right away, I will gladly take up arms.
I want to... get revenge. On everyone. On the whole world. For various life failures. For all the pain that I personally have endured, and that unhappy people in general have endured. For the injustice that poisons and even destroys lives.
That's what kind of idealist I am.
An eye for an eye?
What do I care? I'm calm now. Like a snake.
Hmm.
Only war can reveal all those qualities in a person that are hidden within him.
Or maybe... we will meet during or after the war...

Big respect to Zadornov! I’ve seen their technology, their rockets, and even the Americans themselves – and I’ll be buried before they can match us! Our divers will dismantle their aircraft carriers and submarines, and they won’t even have time to notice! A crater will form where the Pentagon used to be (damn, will I get banned for saying that?). We are a great nation! The Americans are nothing compared to us. We will bury them along with their radars and their entire missile defense system! Russia cannot be understood with the mind, it cannot be measured with an arshin… Whoever comes to our Motherland will… well, you know… :)

the "bomb" will show who gets a smack in the eye with a shovel.
Twelve, no offense, but I wouldn't put you in charge of military resources. :)
Just so we don't set a precedent... earlier than planned.

Brackman, that's an option.
But it won't work with Russia. Putin isn't Nicholas II. And he certainly won't relinquish power.
And any war in the current conditions must be won QUICKLY. Otherwise, those who initiated the conflict will be attacked from behind.

TWELF 12, less Russophilia, please. Regarding Zadornov – (see my posts on several previous pages. Locken said very aptly – Zadornov is exaggerating to an extreme degree).

+to everyone who is confidently saying "Americans are idiots, but ours are..." (regardless of who exactly "ours" are).
Well, well. I won't talk about the spirituality and greatness of Russia in world history – because great philosophers in Russia appeared (as they did everywhere, actually) only when the country was in a state of pre-catastrophe.
I won't talk about whether it was good or bad in the Soviet Union – simply because for ME, the USSR is just four letters "S", "S", "S", "R", which together represent a giant industrial power (and I don't care that one factory was in Kamchatka and another in Kazakhstan – and the parts were transported to Donetsk. But WHAT PARTS! And HOW it worked!).
I just can't understand one thing:
Russians get offended when they are compared to Americans ("They are stupid!").
Americans I know get offended when they are called Russians (EVEN THOUGH THEY OFTEN SEE RUSSIANS), and for the same reason.
Gentlemen! Maybe you're not so different after all? At least, your ambitions are the same.
So, what exactly distinguishes an American worker, manager John Smith, from a Russian worker, manager Pyotr Ivanov?
(Except for the latter's dismissive attitude towards private property – "everything around is public, everything around is mine!". This is true for all residents of that country called the Soviet Union of Socialist Republics. Whether Russian, Ukrainian, Estonian, or Kazakh. Some have more (those who are more foolish), some have less (those who are smarter), and some have none at all...).

When a Russophile gives me an answer without using the words "spirituality," "richness of the soul," "Yankee," "fool," "stupid," and the like... then I will stop being angry with Russophiles.

Yes, I apologize for the delay... Locken, you should take a break now. For a week or two. You're showing typical signs of nervous strain.
2 Ksel, Slonysh, and others – give the guy a break.

How fresh the memory of the confrontation that was truly great in the mid-second half of the 20th century still is. We still believe that the USA is our primary enemy. Personally, I think that Asia will absorb us, and in particular, our former friend and enemy from the 1960s, China. Just look, this nation is now practically in every corner of our vast country, and this nation does not assimilate into our society. Instead, it comes with its own established customs and mentality and tries to impose its own laws and order. This war will be bloodless and will pass unnoticed by many. For example, if you look at sports now, the Chinese have practically earned their place in everything except skiing. Moreover, there are far more of them than us. The Americans are also struggling with this problem – the problem of migration from China. And we should not forget that China is a nuclear power. For which, I think, we should thank our General Secretaries.
And we certainly won't be able to simply ignore them (meaning China). In the Far East, there has long been a cry about this problem. They steal everything they can: timber, seafood, etc. And you are all talking about the Americans.

TWELF, I certainly love my country too, although I wouldn't call myself a fervent patriot. However, even if we bomb all of America and even if they don't retaliate, do you know who will retaliate? Yes, all the other countries. What is NATO for? We're already sitting here like on a powder keg (well, I'm exaggerating a bit, things are still relatively okay), all the other countries don't like us, and you still want to throw bombs around left and right? Their technology is no worse than ours. And no matter what Zadoronov says about America, they have created the most powerful nation in the world in 200 years of history, and we haven't been able to do that in 1000 years. I'm not a fan of America, I'm just stating a fact.
And I'm afraid that World War III will happen. Humanity can't live long without major wars. Especially us. Throughout our history, we have been at war with someone.
P.S. Ar, do you want me to tell you about my dream? I don't think it's worth it).

Lock, and I'm not even aiming for that; I just want to be the commander of a small sabotage squad. NATO? We'll send NATO to the bottom! We'll also deal with the Chinese! All those Georgia, Ukraine, and Estonia will shut up and stop barking... Japan? Foggy Albion? Who else? Whoever comes at us with a sword will... get what's coming to them! Wow, I'm quite the optimist, it turns out. Well, never mind, we'll tear everyone apart, no matter who they are or what they have... Whether it's the Americans with their super-technology, the Japanese with their nano-technology, or the Chinese with a nuclear bomb and a billion soldiers... Uncle Vasya with a bottle of vodka and a crowbar will beat them all! No bombs are needed! Well, in short, Russia rules!!!

well, this is just baseless fun, there's nothing to refute here:)
Ukraine is hardly a concern anymore, especially after Gazprom's recent antics with the valves.
Georgia is only worried about the situation in Abkhazia, which it failed to capture 10 years ago...
Tengro, I appreciate your absolutely and completely sincere concern for my humble, not-so-independent person, but Xel and Slon are irrelevant here... I just used them as an example... it's all in the past.
Yesterday, something else upset me more...
But don't worry, I only attack people on other days...
...and you?

Yes, yes, I'm just kidding, of course. As always. There's nothing to be afraid of...

P.S. Ar, Sonnik, and Nikiforovna say that if you're thrown over a school fence by the blast wave from lightning, it's a sign of success in your studies;)

Bashorg?

Yeah.

Uncle Vasya with a bottle of vodka and a crowbar will beat everyone!

GORDON FREEMAN?????????????????????????????????????????????

Actually, your argument seems... how to put it, amateurish. It's like we, as people far removed from the real situation, are judging something without real knowledge. I doubt we can form an accurate opinion. We tend to think what we are told to think, especially abroad when assessing their opinion of Putin. They are made to believe that Yeltsin was a democrat and Putin is a tyrant, almost like Stalin 2.
Another interesting fact: the number of UFO sightings in America sharply increased during critical situations for the country, situations that could have caused unrest. Can you guess why the number of UFOs magically increased?

No, well, optimism is certainly a good thing, but I'm more of a pessimist. That way, you don't get as disappointed, and you can just say, "I told you so!"

Yeah... it would be interesting to hear =)

Lok, I hope so))))

Well, in my opinion, people with a Twelfth mindset would be much more effective in war than people with an Exa mindset... Regarding the Chinese – why should they fight specifically against us? They have two Koreas nearby, and they're already fed up with their antics. They have Japan nearby, and the Chinese have a HUGE grudge against them. People are worried that a large share of China's production is being dumped into Russia. BUT – I'm telling you, this is very easy to fix. Introducing a policy of protectionism (when the state begins to strictly limit the sale of foreign products, up to and including a ban), high import duties, a full-scale fight against smuggling, and nationalization of businesses (the state begins to create enterprises). Also, a FULL-SCALE propaganda campaign for domestic products should begin – not just advertising, but, for example, reviews in influential magazines, reports from testing sites, good product design, etc. Equally important is the training of young specialists to increase, accelerate, and reduce the cost of production, improve its quality, and create completely new types or varieties of goods. Competently implemented and strictly regulated measures will help fill domestic markets with 80-85 percent domestic products in 6-7 years, and orient the country towards exporting finished goods. Of course, during these measures, at least 40% of new enterprises should be in the field of the military industry, and it is precisely in this area that personnel should be assigned in the first place. The most important thing is to strengthen, increase, and improve the activities of our intelligence services, primarily counterintelligence, to successfully carry out reforms, accelerate technological progress, and prevent the leakage of technology to the West – this is probably the most important thing. It is also necessary to carry out patriotic programs, strengthen the prestige of the army, and restructure it. Well, I think that's enough from you)))) Otherwise, I'll overwhelm you))) In war, the most important thing is to have sensible, proactive, and inventive generals in the headquarters. Don't forget – you can borrow their equipment from their bases. The American security system is built on electronics, which is easily destroyed by electromagnetic pulses. It's up to the snipers and operatives. In case of success, we will get a huge arsenal of advanced weapons, on the basis of which we can create our own, no worse, and most likely even better. And this is not counting the fact that we will destroy a large enemy group. Twenty such raids will allow us to obtain a complete set of American field weapons. With this scenario, after a month of intensive work by industrialists and scientists, we will begin to push the Americans back. And that's the whole war)))))

Loken: For now, we have a larger nuclear arsenal than the Americans, so we have nothing to worry about. FOR NOW. (And yes, I know that the real data is being hidden from us, and the truth is somewhere nearby, but definitely not with me, etc. – please don't bring up arguments like that.)
Brackman: Such an industry needs to be started building in peacetime, and if we start doing that, they'll say we're returning to the USSR and that we're an evil empire, etc.
Here, everyone is afraid of all wars and battles (although some are actually waiting for it). But I read a wonderful forecast (as if the Earth has already perished):
The Earth managed to avoid a nuclear catastrophe, no large meteor hit our planet, and the world war remained just a TV scare. Nothing happened. And that was the worst thing.

Humanity could not come up with anything new. The world continued to heat up. After land plots in Antarctica began to be sold, and half of the population of Africa died in June 2019, the only thing left for people to do was to
despairingly watch the planet die.

The ice in the polar regions melted faster and faster, and part of humanity was saved in the mountains, which now became islands. Unaccustomed to the harsh conditions of life without electricity, clean water, air conditioners, and purchased goods, people continued to destroy the remnants of civilization. Epidemics, poverty, looting, and depravity threw humanity back many centuries.

And here, it's not so much about global warming, although that is also likely to happen. Perhaps many know that, in general, the level of crime in the world is increasing. And perhaps many have noticed how quickly science is moving forward. They are already selling robot cleaners for private use at a relatively low price. There is also a problem, among global warming, meteors, and other things. It is called the crisis of humanity. Human society is beginning to rot and will sooner or later destroy itself. I am not going to urge anyone to break the old order, etc., but personally, I think that this scenario is the most likely.

Here's what I think:
1) There's a lot of nuclear weaponry, but it's useless if there's effective defense; even 1,000,000,000 missiles won't help.
2) Let them say we're an evil empire and so on – we know the truth.)))
3) Humanity won't be able to destroy itself; it's more likely to degenerate, but it won't die.

Degradation is hardly a better option than self-destruction; moreover, a degraded person will do one of two things: 1) Try to develop again – a dead-end option, as resources will be almost or completely depleted by that time – this will result in a feeling of dissatisfaction, rebellions (against what? against everything!), suicides, and other things that will push the person even further away. 2) Continue to quietly and peacefully degrade. By the way, if you think about it, a degraded person is most likely to die in extremely unfavorable environmental conditions (emissions into the atmosphere, resource problems, etc.).
