    Of course it failed. The precedent it would set would be too dangerous for the ruling class; if they could do it to Russia and it’d be okay, others could do it to them and it would be okay.

    The people could do it to their leaders and it would be okay.

    And that, of course, would not be okay (for them).

    Here’s me hoping that this is the final nail in Ukraine’s coffin.

      Nah, they decided to give them 90 billion of our money instead. The war will continue to drag on and Europe continues to get poorer.

        As long as some scum makes good bucks (Germany just loves making weapons by chance) everything goes as planned. And honestly? The population getting poorer just means you can blame foreigners more effectiently and increase the milking of your victims.
