Russia is really sprinting toward full on 1984. Putin isn’t even trying to hide it.

When I read headlines like this, or about the bombings in Moscow, I remember a great quote from 1984, about the only real reminders of an endless war being “a continuous shortage of goods and the occasional crash of a rocket bomb.”
I really do think that’s where this region’s headed.

when will the western nations, especially in europe, wake up and realize this in their practical policy?

Go ahead and throw your youth into the meat grinder. They’re just your country’s future. 😐
We’ll consider terms when the Russian Babushka Battalion gets their deployment papers. At that point, there’s nothing left to fight. (Won’t be long at this point)

“Forever war”? Thought that’s what North Korea has

First it was 3 days, now it’s a forever war. Russia seems to have a problem with numbers which might explain why they think they can keep going on forever with a failing economy

What youth? Their birth rate is low and Putin seems focused on lowering it further.

Putin should watch Bruce Almighty. Jim inherits all the powers of God, but, like God, cannot control people’s free will. Something to consider, Pootin

Funny how the Kremlin is still running like back in WWII. Passing guns around cause they don’t have enough. Comes with the ideology or something.

nah …. it won’t be forever. It will only last as long as the murderous war criminal Putin.
> The full-scale invasion of Ukraine two and a half years ago renewed the government's focus on youth indoctrination.
> The Kremlin is now transforming Rosmolodyozh, the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs, into a vast new ideological body tasked with systematizing and unifying all youth ideological education initiatives, from kindergarten to higher education.
Now its both russia AND china. What is the US doing?? Oh yea..

The last time they had a ‘forever war’ with the west the country collapsed.

…Russia probably can’t sustain a forever war the same way the US can, looking at their population, GDP, and demographics. Let alone their “throw conscripts at the problem” tactics.
