>used to be a superpower>40 years later can't even defeat UkraineThis is fucking embarassing.How do Russians cope with this massive loss of power and prestige?
>>529503735Cope, russia may have taken Pokrovsk.
>>529503735It's pretty obvious now who was doing all the heavy lifting in the USSR and it sure as fuck wasn't the russkies
>>529503735Mind your own business nigger. How about you worry about your energy infrastructure instead.
>>529503735Russia is a joke AMERICA >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Russia
proof that socialism is superior to capitalism
sir, this is march>hating on horses
>>529503735They were never a superpower. Their current state is purely the result of bluffing for decades beyond their resources until the mask finally crumbles off
>>529504035You know what's exciting? The US and China are yet to go through their Perestroika while Russia is 30 years ahead of theirs.
>>529503735Shut up, the fall of germany is more embarrassing. We cant even build a train station, while Russia has conquered terrain of the size of Benelux+Austria+Switzerland. And they will continue to conquer. They are fighting off ALL of NATO funding and hardware and still progressing ahahahah, no amount of wunderwaffels could stop them btfo'ing hohols ahahahaha
>>529503876It was kikes ans Ukies
>>529504526It was Germans as well you fucking faggot. East Germany was the wealthiest communist nation on earth.
lol what's it say about Germans then cos they curb stomped you in ww2
>>529504553but still a shithole that everyone wanted to escape from
>>529504250t. east bloc rape baby
>>529504553and they are the poorest federal states in germanymakes you think
>>529503735They couldn't defeat Afghanistan either.
>>529503735It was all stolen by brainlet politicians, who lived in poverty during Soviets times and wanted to live as kings afterwards. Basically only Baltic states had any political culture and state strategy after the fall of the USSR. All others got their braindead corrupt "elites" from the streets.
>>529503735In 90s Russia lost war to Chechenya, pre war population 1mln
>>529504750I stand with Vladimir Putin. He will be the hegemon of Europe after this war is over
>>529504937When Russian rulers came to power who didn't fight in WW2 in the 80s, it was all over.
>>529503735giving up the cold war in good faith was a mistake, they should have kept hold of everythingtrusting the west to not take every adventage they can get? they fell for the propaganda at the time how they just wanna live in peace now lol.
>>529505488Yeah, they got fucked over badly. Gorbatshov was extremely naive, he should have sent the army to eastern germany and poland and dealt with the protestors instead of being a little bitch
>>529503735because they had the combined resources of eastern europe + central asia, russia by itself is like if texas became an independent country, it would be nowhere near as powerful as a united usa
>>529503735The only reason why USSR worked in first place was because of jewry being prominent in Europe and because Russians are retarded golems who got no morality whatsoever but are peak servants for jews. In war they threw people en masse and it worked for them but since times changed it no longer works, now they need strategy and competence, which they lack because they got same medieval era way of doing things, which is violence and terror, and whole lot of melancholy with corruption. Russians generally are like vultures, they may be rich in resources but they are like retarded niggers. They are mostly disorganized and corrupt among their own ranks. They always wait and pick on everyone when they are weakened enough. Most of heavy lifting in USSR was done not by Russians but by satellite states and those who were forced into USSR. After USSR imploded, it showed who did all the work and who leeched off of everyone.Anybody who claims otherwise is either retarded or troll.
>>529503735>1986Christianity is banned, paganism slightly allowed, communism - atheism.>2025Only Christianity is allowed, everything else is banned (for whites).Tzar, Elites, Empire is back. Just like in Tsarist Empire.Wowo. Maybe commies was right when they banned christ?!
>>529503735>copeMost of them doesn't have global internet now. Christians turned it off for them.
>>529503735Shows pretty obviously where all the expertise came from. Not Russia
>>529505624Russians aren't melancholic moron. Melancholy is a deeper state of sadness and brooding. Russians just want to steal and drink. Not every Russian is a Dostoyevsky.
Well, the country collapsed. What do you expect? Japan used to be a superpower but collapsed. The UK used to be a superpower but collapsed.This war is basically the last test for Russia to be a superpower again. If it fails, then it will never return to being a superpower. NATO will absorb all the former soviet republics, while China and Turkey will move on central Asia. If Russia wins then they can exert power in its former sphere again. You'll see countries like Poland start to act like Hungary and Slovakia. I doubt the baltics will ever play ball and they'll probably be destroyed. But that's only if Russia wins.
>>529505488Wut? The West gave Russia trillions of petrodollars to become a normal country, but they decided to become a corrupt shithole with an eternal brainlet leader, nobody wants to integrate with.
>>529503735They will take Pokrovsk next year, you'll see.
>>529505938Japan was never a superpower lmfao.
>>529505320If he does not gwt killed any time soon, RF is doomed.
>>529505320loser lol
>>529506008Only two had been superpowers, USA and their colonies and USSR.Japan was a major regional power.
>>529506121lol why are Dennis and his friends all naked?
>>529506157USSR was only a superpower for like 20 years.
>>529503735>How do Russians cope with this massive loss of power and prestige?They live in their own bubble of propaganda, so they will never notice it.But we all know it.
>>529504162>while Russia is 30 years ahead of theirsAnd by the time they get to it, a second perestroika is already inbound for Russia.This reminds me of the terminal stage of capitalism that marxists were jerking off to in the 70s and 80s after "peak oil" hit the mainstream. By the time the terminal stage of capitalism supposedly commenced, the Soviet Union was already at its terminal stage and was now to be known as just Russia. And then capitalism fused with the IT sector and prevented its terminal stage.
>>529503735>massive loss of power and prestige>germ flag
>>529506008>>529506215That's your criticism of my post? How low IQ to focus on a random arguable detail than the spirit of the statement itself.
>>529503735WEF faggots working overtime
>>529503735They over-extended their influence and it backfired, now they are closer to their natural limits.Not hard to understand.
>>529505919>Russians aren't melancholic moronYou haven't been in Russia yourself, haven't you? Russians generally aren't the happy and jolly folks, they are quite cold and often depressed. But they will always try to cope like they are the best because of nationalism.>>529505938Which they likely won't be. War with Ukraine will weaken them like hell and they'll have to compensate losses by selling good chunk of their land to China.
>>52950621545 y. Russian Jews destroyed it for coca cola and burgers.https://dl.depot.4d2.org/EF6Kxmfq6549.mp4
>>529503735You will have to go back pidor
>>529506304I wonder why Soviets never invested heavily in IT. Russia was always good at math. Kind of retarded if you think about.
>>529503735You could say the same about the u.s. if russia and china are so weak and pathetic, why does the u.s. then just invade and get it over with?
I wish we got to see the N1 fly.
>>529506672there is no reason to workthere is no point to invent anything
>>529506672they did, nothing was releasedthe beauty of western governments is that they release 1 or 2 generation old tech into the public and some autists or enthusiasts took interest in the tech and innovated on it with governments snatching up these people while under ussr almost every innovation was hidden from public and once it collapsed nothing could salvaged because everything was sold out
>>529506672Didn't have good material base for a widespread personal computer boom in the 80s. And the USSR was already over in the 90s.
>>529503735They need to kidnap more Nazi scientists. That's the only way to turn it around.
>>529506906There was no private ownership in the USSR (except only in the last years). So you couldn't build your Apple in your garage.
>>529506672I can actually give you a very detailed answer to that. Tl;dr form is that they perceived it as a capitalist threat and banned us from developing it and turning into the communist silicon valley. Here is the full form if you're actually interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-UVPw1c_So . You can punch far beyond your class but there's only so much that can be done before some communist grandpa comes over and tells you to stop ASAP or else.Oh and by the way the SVM, which was one of the first cornerstones of non-linear learning with a lot of theory around it that would later contribute to the first AI boom in the 90s, was invented in the Soviet Union. Completely ignored until the guy migrated to America and was immediately picked up by Bell Labs and showered with all that he needed to make it work.
>>529506304Third time the charm?
>>529507094this too, the limit of resources because you can only get what governments deems necessary for you
>>529507369an as you know governments are bad at running things, so imagine when everything is run by government, nothing gets done
>>529506672East Germany didhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VEB_Robotron
Sometimes I just don´t fucking understand people. The OP image f.e, why do you colour in a Google Maps screenshot to show the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact? There are literal MAPS that show the thing.
>>529507919>robotroonkek
>>529506672No Civilian/Commercial market.If the public doesn't have access to things then you aren't going to have people improve upon it.
>>529506672Because communism means not ever doing more than you are asked, because you gain nothing.
>>529503735This all happened because they went against Jews. Jews collapsed the Soviet Union.
>>529503735Soviet Union ≠ Russia, Russia and the Ukraine together couldn't even defeat Moldova in the early 1990's.
America was the shining example when the USSR was around. Now look at it. Everyone lost.
>>529503735They used to have the texhnology but they don't anymore. Don't question it.
>>529503735Now you know why this prophetic game C&C Generals does not include Russia as a faction, but China.
>>529503735>How do Russians cope with this massive loss of power and prestige?They sold their gretbess for coca cola and burgers in 1991.
>>529503735Ukraine is just little russia though.
>>529503735Overxtended. Nobody wamted to be a part of their clown empire.
>>529510923Would be a damn shame if Russia bothered to level all of the soviet built infrastructure one day so that every Gans villager could go back to running butt naked around the worshipped rocks.
