Isn't this the same shit everyone was flipping out about when China did it to Filipino fishermen who were "trespassing"? At least in that case nobody died. RIP.

What's the point of a navy when interceptors are expensive and limited while drones are cheap and limitless? While this use of resources is arguably productive in a land war, Ukraine has once again demonstrated the folly of deploying a navy against a land-based opponent.

If Ukraine can do this to Russia in Russian waters, what could China do to a US carrier group off it's coast, thousands of kilometers from the US?

And yet the mods remove posts about the Polish and Estonia PMs warning about future Russian aggression... Interesting.

Some might even say... Propaganda.

Lol the number of posts the mods removed discussing this topic makes me think the mods have an agenda. Do the mods not think Russia is a threat?

I doubt the party has a chance of ever unseating Putin, but Putin must die eventually and they are well-positioned for that eventuality. Moreso than Navalny, who's lack of support makes him a non-starter.
