@augustus I think you're giving them way too much agency and way too little agency to the locals; russia is pretty unpopular in these parts of the world, for 400-ish years of good reasons.

@augustus mate, one of these is not like the others, and burgers don't have monopoly on "certain region suddenly becomes restless and asserts independence; also, troops and weapons materialize out of thin air" - apart from the ones in ukraine there's 2 of them in Georgia, and Transnistria in Moldova
What changed recently is for mysterious reasons putin wasn't content with having yet another one of those, and proceeded to (try to) invade the whole country because muh russian imperium needs to be reborn or something (... and their ideological boi dugin believes it needs to span basically orwell's eurasia, leaving airstrip one to the atlanticist club)

@m0n5t3r it's legit to argue that he is just cynically using the situation to expand Russia's regional power, but I do believe that if State Department and CIA never collapsed Ukraine gov in 2014 none of this would be happening since it's basically just a Cuban Missile Crisis scenario in reverse
-
@m0n5t3r yeah. or believing Iraqi state propaganda so you can own the great satan. or Libyan, or Syrian etc.

@augustus @m0n5t3r just in case any forum shills want to parrot the msm and call it a conspiracy theory please read it straight from the US government

@meowski @m0n5t3r I'm not saying it's not true but it totally sounds like some QAnon shit

@augustus @m0n5t3r they probably don't want a bunch of US bioweapons labs sitting on their border either, especially given recent events. if russia set up a series of military bsl4 labs in mexico i doubt we would be too thrilled
