Like if the entire country were to collapse with everyone currently at the top being either arrested or killed and completely replaced top to bottom? And preferably replaced by a far more democratic system not run by such corrupt evil people that Satan himself loves?
I don't care what Satan thinks. If the Russian economy collapses it would be exactly the karma that Vlad and his merry band of killers in the Ukraine deserve.
Original poster, I’m not saying Vladimir Putin is a saint. Far from it. I believe he was wrong and invading Ukraine. I believe most wars are wrong in general. And could be avoided. That said, you do understand that your media lies to you on a regular an ongoing basis? They have a narrative for almost any topic and they create a false illusion for you? Ukraine is not innocent. Their leader is a fake person. As fake as they come. He was a reality TV star for crying out loud. He’s a coke head…All those post of him out there in a bulletproof vest on the front lines a while back? All fake. The dudes the typical lying conniving manipulating politician. Russia has been warning Ukraine for years stop doing things to provoke them. Ukraine also broke its agreements they had with Russia do not build up a threatening military on their border. They cut off their water supply. To Russian farmers. Ukrainian did not think Putin would invade. So they egged Russia on. I know everybody wants to believe the narrative they believe but these are facts. Does that mean Russia should have invaded Ukraine? Of course not. But this crap that there’s some innocent little child in this is nonsense.
It would be healthier and cut pollution considerably. Everyone would be riding bicycles instead of burning twenty dollar a gallon gasoline. It would also speed up research and production of electric vehicles.
Might be just what the doctor ordered to reduce global warming.

Exactly.....but your more objective views do not fit the narrative of "US good, Russian, China or XYZ bad" narrative. Otherwise, how could the US government ever justify the massive 700 billion+ military budget, the 11 carrier battle group, the more than 900 military bases worldwide, the continuous wars against XYZ (fill in your flavor of choice) for the past whatever, 30, 40, 60+ years, etc etc etc.
The US is a democratic republic, so the power establishment needs to create narratives so that the voting population can be brainwashed into voting the "right" way. Along the way, Americans can maintain their "USA #1" feeling of a superiority/savior mentality. This is how/why Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq invasions/campaigns all happened. This is also why they all ended up being massive failure (just look at iraq....from a dictatorship that actually functioned, albeit with repression for some, to now being a TOTAL complete FAILED STATE with no electricity or running water and more than 300000 dead from the US occupation...a great leap forward indeed!)...and a huge army of permanently maimed and injured US war veterans with PTSD who now add to the US drug addiction and homelessness statistics. Great way to run a country and the irony is that Americans are always criticizing other countries for their faults. Look in the mirror first.
