Armchair General's DonbAss Derailed Discussion Thread (Topics Include History, Traps, and the Ongoing Slavic Civil War plus much much more)

You have to love all the concern trolling over this convicted murderer getting killed by Russian mercs. :rolleyes: You think we can't see right through you? What even is the basis for the claim that this man was forced to say anything bad about Russia? Who was it that actually killed him. You are twisting into pretzels and playing six degrees of Kevin Bacon to try and blame Ukraine for something Russians did. Something, I'll add, that is entirely consistent with the barbarism they've shown in the areas of Ukraine that they've occupied. Not only do you come off like some leftist trying to blame guns for murder, you actually manage to self-own and don't even seem to realize it by claiming Ukraine was inhumane by sending this man back to Russia and that this is somehow equivalent or even worse than the actual act of bashing his skull in. It's like you're admitting that the Russians are barbarians and cannot but help to commit acts like that.

Russia is much more of a shit than Ukraine is. No doubt about that. For all their flaws, I obviously still support Ukraine in this war. I have to, for the sake of national self-determination.
 
I don't see anything wrong with same-sex marriage or with same-sex civil unions.

Same sex civil unions? Perhaps not, depends on the manner how they are legalized.

Same-sex marriage however is an attack against foundations of the society. Purpose of marriage is creating a family, and purpose of family is raising sane children. Which requires parents - two of them, and not of the same sex due to innate psychological differences between men and women. Children raised by single parents often end up emotionally and socially stunted, and that will be no better with two instances of the same. Perhaps even worse, as I suspect most same-sex couples want to adopt children merely due to jealousy.

For a society, same-sex marriage is worse than a world war.

Honestly, I'm going back and forth about whether the death of "society" is a good thing or not. As much as I hate to say it there is something about being aware of your own mortality and the futility of life-building character meanwhile "society" has allowed both physical and mental weakness because there are no more natural predators or threats meanwhile people cling to tyrants trying to look for purpose.

TL;DR it's hard to have a philosophical crisis when you are too busy fighting for your life. Maybe security is a bad thing in the long run. Not to mention the fact that people in general tend to thrive the best in smaller communities.

Agreed. Humans are in fact psychologically evolved and adapted for life in communities of no more than a hundred people, a thousand at maximum. Yet today you have cities that go into millions. No wonder urban life makes people crazy: every single urban dweller is essentially a basket case. And yes, I am counting myself too.
 
Really grasping at straws here.

I'll agree that attacks on the family are an existential threat to society.

I will not agree that they are as bad as soldiers actively raping and murdering the people in your society.

I'm not grasping at straws, I just know history.

Soldiers come and go. But when you destroy the very structure of the society, you destroy that society and then it collapses. No recovery is possible.

Very few societies collapsed solely due to external invasions. Europe survived two world wars. Croatia survived losing 80% of the population to the Ottomans.

But losing values and the society itself? There is no recovering from that.

If it gets cold enough, it will stop being too muddy. That's when a winter offensive might happen.
Russia's Dragon Teeth Are Allegedly Already Falling Apart in their new defensive line that hasn't even been engaged yet...



Russia Establishing Border Defenses on Russian Border with Ukraine in Kursk Oblast.


Guess in Russia dragons have cavities.

Let's not forget that this looks like a very much for-show effort for western leftist NPCs. If Zelensky wanted to do this, he had 2 years before war to say so, and his tone here includes a lot of wording like "got to change the constitution first", "considering" and "after the war".

I hope that is the case. But Western NGOs and so on did try to use the Homeland War to infiltrate Croatia. And successfully infiltrated Croatia after Tudjman's death in 1999.
