Tenchu's Thoughts: PooTin The Invincible?

Lately PooTin is making moves that enhance his reputation as "unstoppable."

First, there is his victory in Avdiivka. Never mind the reports of RuZZian corpses littering the landscape, or the estimates of 50K dead just to take a city of 30K. As long as PooTin has an "unlimited" supply of meat to throw at even a single city like Avdiivka, he simply cannot be stopped, or so it seems.

Second, there is the recent assassination of Alexei Navalny. This is obvious, but the timing should also be noted. It wasn't by coincidence that PooTin chose this time to finally kill off his main political rival.

Third, the high-profile defector who flew to Ukraine in an Mi-8 helicopter, was found assassinated in Spain:

Fourth, the interview by Moscow Qarlson was allowed to be held just a few weeks before all of the above happened. Again, the timing of this interview by PooTin's #1 fanboi is no coincidence.

And finally, even the mainstream media is running stories about how PooTin is "winning." This is from yesterday, from NYMag, which is VERY liberal:

Putin Is Winning — and Flaunting It (NYMag)

All of this was coordinated to happen before RuZZia's upcoming "elections."

All of this was coordinated to enhance PooTin's image as a man who cannot be stopped.

All of this is meant to convince the depoliticized masses in RuZZia that PooTin can be trusted to continue his war of choice. It validates their unconscious decision to outsource to PooTin the dirty sausage-making of politics, even war (which is politics by other means).

My Predictions

After PooTin gets "re-elected," he will take this opportunity to call for a mass mobilization. This will be his best opportunity to continue his war of choice. Not even RuZZia can continue sustaining massive human losses without additional mobilization. However, such a move comes with heavy political risks, and PooTin will not take those risks without spending some political capital.

But why do that? Why doesn't PooTin just stop now, set up defenses, and drive the war to a "stalemate"? He wouldn't need another round of mobilization if he does that.

It's because PooTin still won't stop until ALL of Ukraine is under his control.

Never mind the failure of his three-day march to Kyiv. He believes that's a fluke, and that if he continues pressing onwards, eventually Ukraine and the West will buckle under the pressure.

How do I know this? Because I'm paying attention.

Thanks to Moscow Qarlson's interview, we have confirmation that PooTin sees this war not simply to "protect RuZZian-speaking residents of Ukraine," but as a grand romantic struggle that will define RuZZia's future for the next millennium.

Hence PooTin will keep sending waves of meat. He will not stop advancing, because why should he?

He obviously doesn't see the impact it's having on his economy, or his Soviet-era stockpiles of military hardware, or the stability of his oil-producing infrastructure, or the demographics of the RuZZian population (more and more young men dying to his pointless war instead of working at factories or doing scientific research or whatever).

And we see now that PooTin's bubble of alternate reality is impenetrable. He WILL kill people and threaten the world with n00ks in order to maintain that bubble. Anything that even makes a dent in it, he will pull out ALL the stops in order to hammer out the dent.

The RuZZian population will see this and will either be drawn into the alternate reality, or at least be reassured that PooTin MUST be doing something right as long as he remains untouchable.

And that's all that matters to him.

How should we respond?

As of now, the PooTin wing of the GOP is right in one thing. Ukraine doesn't directly affect us. Not right now, at least. We still have to secure our own border, we still need to work on reshoring manufacturing, we still need to work on our energy policy, and we still need to deal with that inflation thingy.

However, now is the PERFECT opportunity to ramp up our production of weapons, ammo, drones, and all the parts needed to help Ukraine push back against RuZZia.

After all, we have "only" spent about $75B on Ukraine. And we have "only" sent a handful of tanks, aviation, ammunition, etc.

This initial aid was important, by the way, in order to set up the logistical pipelines. America's military excels because of its logistics, and by paving the logistical paths, America is well prepared to ramp up the military aid when necessary.

Well, it's necessary now.

Lead from the front, not from our behind

Not only that, but we need to take the lead here.

Europe is already reacting to RuZZia's gains by ramping up their own aid to Ukraine. Even Denmark has already donated ALL of their artillery shells, for example:

Denmark will send its ‘entire artillery’ to Ukraine (Euractiv.com)

But Europe is still in reactionary mode. And of course, European logistics can be incredibly complicated, especially with aid coming from multiple nations with MANY different technologies that are likely incompatible with one another. Even NATO 155mm shells differ from one to another, so it's not like any NATO shell can be used in any NATO artillery gun.

We really need to take the lead here. We really need to come up with a strategy to win the war in Ukraine and show the rest of the world that PooTin's goals will NEVER succeed in a free world.

Can we do it? Of course we can.

Are we doing it right now? Of course we aren't. The lack of leadership from the White House is obvious to everyone, even to the most fervent of Brandon supporters.

Blaming the GOP isn't working, by the way, because if it did, the House would have already passed the Ukraine bill by now.

Begin with the end in mind

Ultimately, the end should be PooTin's demise from the inside, not the outside.

He's already riding on an egotistical high right now, with the Avdiivka win, his political opponents getting murdered almost in broad daylight, and the PooTin cucks fapping online like they're on Viagra.

How to counter that? By letting him kill himself.

But we can't do that without providing the brick wall that Ukraine is building right now, with the blood of their soldiers and the sweat from digging their trenches.

Because if we throw Ukraine under the bus now, we will have allowed Cold War 2.0 to begin.

And I guarantee you that this is NOT a world that we want to leave for our children.

Unless, of course, you're a PooTin cuck, and you think that PooTin and his fellow authoritarians like Sneakerman Trump will always be on YOUR side ...
