      It’s exactly this.

      Redditors have been saying we should nuke Moscow for two years.

      They really do t understand that half of Russian humor is sarcasm.

      The joke is that she’s saying the same things you say about them, glad to see literally nine of you have an ounce of self awareness to realize that.

    Is it bad that I want just one little bomb dropped on London? I feel like Westoids might start to take the Isreal conflict more seriously if they saw the consequences.

      They won’t, they will act like Nazis about it. “For every bomb dropped on the free world we will drop ten” like shit is going to be national policy.

      I mean, it really depends on where they dropped it.

      Piccalilli Circus seems like a shit move. But Buckingham Palace?

        Why not Piccadilly Circus? Absolute shithole. The only people with stakes in it are tourists, major corporations, west end theatres, and anyone rich enough to even live remotely close to it. Wipe it off the fucking map.

          Why not Piccadilly Circus? Absolute shithole.

          If we’re just blowing up shit because it looks bad, the first thing you need to drop a bomb on is the London Eye. After that, maybe aim for the folks that collect the rents, not the people just commuting through.

          The only people with stakes in it are tourists, major corporations, west end theatres, and anyone rich enough to even live remotely close to it.

          If you want to kill a bunch of British landlords, firebomb Australia.

      I don’t want a bomb dropped on London, but it would be an instance of a terrible thing done for the greater good. Provided it slows down Western imperialism, that is.

      It’s not like anyone would get hurt anyway, you’d just be destroying investment properties standing empty. Up to 65% of homes in Londons neighbourhoods are deserted

    The way they use “Head of the Russian Ski Federation” as though it’s some scary title lmao

    Russia’s still playing Colonial Superpowers methinks, (most) everyone else has moved on.

    Yes only Russia is still doing imperialism, great take

      “DOESN’T SHE REALISE THAT BOMBING LONDON WOULDN’T SOLVE THINGS???”
      I dunno, probably yeah, she was probably making a joke. On the other hand in the west we seem to think bombing Moscow will somehow magically fix things

    She’s not even saying that she wants to bomb London. It sounds like she’s fully aware that it was Boris Johnson/the British who tanked whatever peace deal Russia/Ukraine were working on at the very beginning and that the extension of the war can be linked to them. That’s just an abundantly reasonable take

      I recently received a ban from there for opposing genocide. The message the admins sent was that Stormfront does not support violence against people or animals. I don’t think I want to know how they classify Palestinians and Lebanese people.

          They mostly support cute pet-coded animals, mainly cats and dogs, but they’re also perfectly comfortable with the cognitive dissonance of sharing the fun fact that cows have best friends while eating an Epic Bacon Wrapped Triple Patty Triple Bypass Burger™.

          Hence the outrage of immigrants eating “the wrong animals” while they’re perfectly happy chowing down on pigs, cows, chickens, etc because they don’t view them as designated “pet animals”
