So Muscovy’s colonies gonna be free? Hoping for that, so many ethnic minorities men were sent to the meat grinder recently. They deserve better.

More than a year of war has changed Ukraine forever — but it is also reshaping Russia, with opinion starkly divided on what should happen to the country after the conflict.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is hoping its borders will be expanded and his own grip on power will be strengthened. Many outside Russia are pushing for a future without Putin, in which Moscow will never again be in a position to invade its neighbors.

But some Russians themselves are calling for a restructuring of the country and a rethinking of Russian national identity — often at great personal risk.

Ruh-roh, bad news for Poopin!

“Have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress? All of them realize that, one day, amongst their many victims, there is sure to be one who rises against them and strikes back!”

Hmm not surprising considering Russia has been drafting ethnic minorities for their war instead of pulling from Moscow and St. Petersburg. As such, they’ve been taking a considerable number of losses for a war they didn’t even want, and of whom losses Putin sees as expendable.

Frankly I don’t think this is a realistic option that will lead to anything but more long drawn out protracted warfare
