This is especially stupid because nobody hates Putin more than Russian immigrants.

I feel like we don't mention how stupid the "actually Russia has legitimate concerns about NATO expansion" talking point is.

Again, this makes no sense. I'm not Russian. I'm basically watching a football game here.

If your emotional investment in this conflict is comparable to a football game, then you may have a serious psychological problem. You are capable of empathy, right?

Odds on Predict and Polymarket

Odds of Putin still being Russia Prez by end of 2022: 78/22
Odds of Zelensky still being Ukraine Prez by April 22 2022: 49/51

Putting money on that sort of thing is in poor taste IMO.

Okay, we know how Atlas loves to deconstruct polls, especially polls involving US Elections, so take it for what it's worth (Although I believe they have their cross-tabs available if you follow the link on the WP article below)

Poll of Russian Public Opinion regarding the War in Ukraine:

Quote
58 percent of Russians support invasion of Ukraine, 23 percent oppose it, poll shows

About 58 percent of Russians approve of the invasion of Ukraine, while 23 percent oppose it, according to a poll conducted across Russia a week into Moscow’s full-scale assault.

Let's keep in mind that Russia is an authoritarian regime and that people are currently being arrested for peaceful assembly, so people may not feel comfortable saying they oppose the invasion even if they do.

Putin is a mad dog who may have just started World War III. His little mind can't handle that he's losing a war with Ukraine and will drag us all down with him.

Per CNN: Pentagon says it does not have enough information to confirm or corroborate whether or not the Russians were responsible for the missile attacks in Poland.

I note (I'm not the only one in fact) that many idiotic mainstream media sources in the West are still going on about the Titan sub (RIP to all of those who were onboard of course) a lot more than this.

CNN is still going on about the sub. At least MSNBC is covering stuff that's actual news (Supreme Court stuff and Trump's legal issues), but yeah this situation is like extremely urgent and I wish they'd talk about it!
