• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Russian ally faces revolt over Russia’s war of imperial aggression

Look at a map of NATO in 1953, in contrast to a map of RUSSIA\USSR. Then compare that map to todays map, and tell me which is the imperialist...and one who is fighting for their soverignty
Russia is in no way entitled to sovereign countries that happened to formerly be a part of the USSR. Hell the USSR was cobbled together under communist tyranny anyways.

That’s not even mentioning the fact that NATO is a defensive alliance of sovereign nations and not some imperialist entity. NATO has never once invaded a non belligerent country to oppress the native people via war crimes like Russia is doing today and has done multiple times throughout history.

On top of all that Russia is a communist country while all the other members of NATO are not. That alone should be enough for any capitalist red blooded American even if the roles were completely reversed and it were NATO invading peaceful countries a la Russia.

🤔So,...you're suggesting the territories of the "USSR" were "cobbled together"-during the Communists reign, from various sovereign countries??

😏Interesting,...let's consider this idea.

What territory comprised Russia prior to the "Bolsheviks" slaughter of the Tsar and usurpation of the Russian Empire???

Various sovereign countries?

Various sovereign countries?
What territories comprised the United Kingdom prior to usurpation by the American colonies?

Anyone can play dumb games like you just tried to. Those territories are sovereign countries now and will remain that way.
