The End of American Exceptionalism
  • I’m asking a very simple question. Were there words in there that you didn’t understand?

    I've given you a simple answer. Were there words in there that you didn’t understand?

    This already happened. Putin was still in charge, and came back when the pretense of not being in charge was no longer necessary. What reason is there to believe Medvedev is next in line and that everyone else will just go with that when Putin is dead? Yes I’m saying dead because dictators don’t have retirement plans lol.

    Not sure what point you're trying to make here. The fact that you think Russia is some sort of a dictatorship further highlights just how utterly clueless you are about it.

    Ah yes, the last refuge of the loser who can’t answer a simple question.

    You've made it abundantly clear that you are utterly clueless on Russia by claiming that it's a dictatorship and insinuating that Putin runs the government single handedly. Nobody is dancing around anything. That's just a straw man you're making based on your lack of understanding of the subject you're attempting to debate here. If you think that Russia is going to fall apart when Putin steps down then you're in for a really big surprise.

  • lol similar story here

  • No, I really have no clue what you mean by that because you're implying Putin's role is far larger than it actually is. When he steps down, it's most likely that it's going to be Medvedev that replaces him. You evidently have absolutely no clue about Russian politics.

  • However, the way these primal instincts are expressed obviously changes based on the rules of societies we create. USSR and post-Soviet Russia serves as a perfect real world example. The same people who generally acted in the interest of society under socialist structures quickly learned how to become oligarchs under the capitalist set of rules. In effect, the way society is structured acts as a selection pressure for human behavior.

  • Ukraine's Zelenskyy says he wants to end war with Russia through diplomacy next year
  • The US is clearly starting to distance itself from project Ukraine now. That said, I don't expect that the US will alter its stance to simply admit that Russia has won. The most probable scenario is that Russia and the US will secretly negotiate a behind-the-scenes agreement, and the US will just cut aid to Ukraine while continuing to publicly engage in verbal posturing. The US admin will say that it has more pressing concerns with China and the Middle East, and it's now time for Europe to step up and assume a larger role. However, everyone knows that Europe is not any position to do so. Therefore, the conflict will likely end on Russian terms without the US openly admitting defeat. As an added bonus, the US will secure lucrative military contracts with European nations for decades to come.

  • The whole context of this discussion was me saying that Russia is more competently run than the US. 🤷

  • Not sure what you mean by that. Putin doesn't run Russia single handedly like he's playing civ or something. Absolutely incredible that anybody could think that the entire Russian government hinges on Putin.

  • The US has no leverage to hurt China's economy

  • China is indeed more competent, however we were comparing Russia to the US here. There's is no metric by which you could say the US is better governed or more politically stable than Russia at the moment.
