As I've noted before many here are going through the 7 stages of grief being confronted with the state of the world, including the terminal decline of the American Empire:

https://i.redd.it/7zs3hv8ryrh51.jpg

People like "Undefeated" and 'spottybrowncow', are in the Denial phase:

Undefeated wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 4:18 am
"No, you prefer fantasy.
America=bad
Russia=good.
..."

People like anons 'Guest' and "Another Guest" are in the Anger phase. The giveaway is the excessive use of exclamation points, insults, or ALL CAPS:

"Russia is a shit hole run by uncouth gangsters with fake university degrees [w]ho steal everything.
...

Yes! Let's be honest about Russia!!!!

..."

I suspect Cool Breeze, John, and myself are in the Depression-Testing Phase.

Trevor and Navigator are between the Testing-Acceptance Phases.

Chin up, "Undefeated" and 'spottybrowncow' , you'll eventually get through it...

Unless you're preparing for a global financial crisis, a stock market
crash, and World War III with China, then all of you are in the
"denial" stage.

If you want to get past the denial stage, then read Navigator's book,
Preparing for the Coming Storms, and take it seriously.

Hardly in denial. It seems to me that determinists are in denial.

I'm just intelligently prepared.

Burner is on it. Testing is all you can do currently because, just like the probabilities, we don't truly know the quality even if a probability happens.

For example, world war might happen, but might not come to America. Just an example of a possibility.

Depression is the kind of thing you get when you look around at American women. I realized that at least 5 years ago ... a generation would pass at least before one saw any change, if that. Sadly.

I read Navigator's book. I'm preparing. I'm sure most people are. The rate of preparation speed is possibly an indicator of level of denial. No future event is certain until it happens, except death. So we live on, knowing this. Dwelling on it is a morbidity, denying it is foolishness. Somewhere in between we trudge. Some more morbid, some drunk on life. Talking about it means we're not otherwise engaged in preparation unless we're learning something related to it. Like when we won't be preparing but merely getting by with what comes our way. We know it's coming soon, but when? We know it's soon.

I agree but how soon is soon? That matters, even though many here act like it doesn't.

Fear and faith cannot occupy the same space. I maintain faith, and am confident He will give me the strength the handle anything that comes.

Yes, Thomas, another sign that you are among the clearest thinkers here. Amen.

To the Pro-Russians on the board:

Americans are far better people than Russians. All of this America bashing makes me wonder about the people on this board. Are you foreigners or are you just bitter losers?

Having lived and worked with Russians in Russia and overseas, I believe the Russians to be a race of grifters. They are only decent to you if they want something. No, they are not a Christian people, just the opposite. This idea that the Russians are deeply religious is unfathomable to me. Where have these people gotten this idea? The Russians wallow in religious hypocrisy. The Russian church is in Putin pocket.

The Russians look at Westerners as sheep to be fleeced at every opportunity.

God won't even help you if you marry a Russian woman. I have never met an American woman that owned a luxury handbag from Chanel or Gucci. I have met Russian baristas who own Chanel and Gucci products, the gaudier the better. How did they get those? I'll let you figure that out. I worked with a Russian girl in my office overseas. She only worked part-time but always seemed to have new outfits and dyed her hair a different color every week. One day she said she was having visa trouble and left. We found out later she had ripped off one of her "men" and fled before the police could arrest her. If you are looking for God fearing women in Russia, you are going to be disappointed. And out of pocket.

No, I don't think Russian woman are better than American ones. If you can't find a decent America woman to marry, that says more about you than them. Look in the mirror. What do you have to offer a woman?

Russians do not honor contracts or keep their promises. Doing business in Russia only works if it is to their advantage. Eventually the Russians will cheat you. Every single time.

If people here expect the Russians to save Western Civilization, they will sourly be disappointed. You are going to have to save yourselves.

Cheering on Russians and denigrating your own soldiers, if yiu are American, is shitty and unforgivable. You're nothing but a shit bag if you do so. We are on the brink of WW III, and Burner Prime is rooting for our enemies. FU.
