    The very fact that someone feels the need to say that they are confident they will not be betrayed already indicates that they will, in fact, be betrayed.

      It’s been obvious for quite some time that they were going to do this since Zelensky made various statements in the past about how the West should not disappoint Ukraine. And then there’s that direct threat to Europe he made.

      Curtailing aid to Ukraine will only prolong the war, Mr Zelensky argues. And it would create risks for the West in its own backyard. There is no way of predicting how the millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries would react to their country being abandoned. Ukrainians have generally “behaved well” and are “very grateful” to those who sheltered them. They will not forget that generosity. But it would not be a “good story” for Europe if it were to “drive these people into a corner”.

        Oh sure when I say we shouldn’t give the self avowed nazis guns because they’ll use them to do nazi shit after the war I’m a Russian shill but when Zelensky threatens other nations with it if they stop funding him, crickets.

    So I know gambling is bourgeois decadence, but let’s place our bets on the country he’ll escape to when American funding dries up and Russia overruns Ukraine. I’m placing my bets on Poland.

      Gambling can be used effectively. Numbers games were often used as a lender of last resort in poor communities, with numbers readers sometimes even giving wins to people in need rather than who had the correct number. It can quickly devolve into obsession and addiction for some though, so it’s not an ideal, rather a decent survival method within marginalized communities.

      I’m thinking he’ll come infest my home shithole of kkkanada . There’s a large amount of ukranian nazis, easy to keep on a short leash, but not directly in america itself. If it does happen I hope he like, gets hit by an average montreal driver.

        It was a group of Canadian-Ukrainian nazis who came up with the “holodomor” term btw. They didn’t actually create the myth itself, but they’re the ones who revived it and gave it a vaguely holocaust-sounding name.

    Zelensky, you need to get your ass out of Ukraine ASAP if you plan to end 2024 while still breathing. The standard fascist “stabbed in the back by Jewish conspiracy” propaganda narrative is being woven as we speak. You were only useful to the nazis when you were bringing in foreign aid. Now America is laser-focused on aiding Israel.
