    Russian defense budget is around 145 billion next year. The Soviet Union lost the cold war by bankrupting themselves through the military.

    Economically the EU is 10 times larger than Russia… so if they spend 35pct on defense… we only need to spend 3.5pct and dump as much of that into Ukraine… it will be easy to maintain… and a hell of a lot cheaper than dealing with prolonged consequences.

              These people are quite stupid. Best to just block em and let them spew their nonsense into the void thinking people can see it

                I just tag them through mbin and report them. If they’re cheap trolls they’re typically gone soonish anyway and if they continuously spread disinformation I’d rather identify them and report their additional comments quickly.
