Russian troops are fighting back on their own lands and Ukraine was preparing to invade Russian historical lands. No dialback on the propaganda (unsurprisingly)

Nor did I say they were. I was talking to Zard about his characterisation of Lexicus' posts.
I even said "I'm not saying anyone's stance is therefore right or wrong", and I've been pretty clear on my criticism of Russia's invasion throughout. So, uh, good job on proving Lexi's point?

Well, now it's a Russian matter of how to "de-Europeanize" itself, since the Big Problem with Ukraine is that it has been "Europeanized", in order to "save" both of them, and the key to successfully "de-Ukranianizing" the Ukranians is their "de-Europeanization" (without the European bit the Ukranians supposedly would realize they're just Russians). But of course: What else comes from Europe? Well, Nazism!
European – Ukranian – Nazi in three simple steps. Simple, really... [we used to have a "sarcasm" smiley didn't we?]
Apparently the Russian Air Force has lost the capability to fly in sunshine. They flew at last years parade in grey weather. Interestingly, the flyovers in Jekaterinburg, Novosibirsk and Samara were also cancelled. Is the Russian Air Force in a much worse shape than we believed?
Yeah, Putin did ramble about the absolute necessity of invading Ukraine. When Finland & Sweden are expected to announce their new security policy later this week, he will probably have another rant about the evil of NATO and the West.
Poles are at it again. The Russian ambassador was painted red in what I guess is a Victory Day commemoration.

High turbulence was reported. But still, it's strange that it impacts state of the art jet fighters.

The Russian ambassador to Poland was painted red in protest against war in Ukraine
Russian state-owned media "RIA Novosti" muted the sound, as crowd chanting "fascists, fascists!" to the Russian delegation

Probably not that bad.
Still wondering if the Ukranian successes at hitting unexpected targets-of-opportunity, and the negative PR fall out, hasn't eaten itself into the Kremlin's thinking here...? Can they be sure the dastardly USAians and NATOists haven't managed to get some stuff in to make Russian planes in a fly-over go "Boom"? Like really sure? Is Russia still really safe for Russia?
I noticed 3 people dressed in civilian clothing walking behind Putin with what looked like identical briefcases. Does his nuclear suitcase guy have 2 of his own decoys? Putin's paranoia seems unhinged.
It says that the video is unavailable. Can you give me the name of the video, or something, so that I may find it? Seems interesting

Sorry, but you are quite naive.
I'm pretty sure I didn't boomer this up. I tried that but it just says "video is unavailable"

During the parade I had the impression, that Putin did walk like the old man he really is.No propaganda was able to correct this. Let´s hope he now gets the wisdom of his age and stops this bloody killing and invading.
Wise would be to die gracefully now - no way he can rectify this disaster.
He rolled the dice, needed aces but threw a couple of craps.

Moody old mage.
I nearly feel bad for the guy, who probably had a sinking feeling in his guts about having to attend knowing full well he would be an outcast.
Diplomacy ain't always fun.
