This MAN has BALLS.
Not all the Russians are the aggressors, this man knows he's fucked either way, Russia is about to witness one of the worst depressions to ever hit it. We go on about the bolsheviks killing the tsar etc. Worst decision russia made, the USSR collapsed for a reason, you tried to run an empire which was doomed from the start, Your trying to resurrect the past. The past is the past for a reason, a lesson to be taught and to be learned from.
I feel for the russian people, I really do. I'm a scotsman, I know first hand about the feeling of independence and what you think is yours by right, I've got something to tell you. Nothing is yours by right. Ukraine is a independent country. It was voted to be so. Ukraine WAS part of russia, It's not anymore.
I speak directly to Putin...... If he was to ever come across this comment, not as a diplomat, but as a neutral. I will put this across as plain as I can. But with respect also.
You are killing children, you are killing woman and disabled men, you believe you have the RIGHT to seize a country, you think that your the one destined to rebuild the ussr, listen to reason.
Empire's rise to fall, the roman empire fell, The ottoman empire fell, the mongol empire fell, the british empire fell, you are just trying to create something that can no longer be feasible. Empires are a thing of the past. We no longer need them. Even if you were to "Reform the USSR" Another insurrection would happen and you would be replaced. Happened with rasputin, it will happen with you, history has a way of repeating itself.
You are president of russia, one of the greatest nations on this planet with a proud and dignified history. One you should be proud of. A people that are fierce and defensive, a people who believe in something more, something greater. But your on the wrong side of history. You will be remembered as a dictator who caused evil even by your own people. Why not change that and push your hatred of the west to one side for just a minute and logically think. Use your brain. Please stop this madness and just speak to us. We don't bite, we will listen. It's you who doesn't want to.
I will speak for myself, if russia push up to scotland one day I will gladly go to war. As will all my fellow brothers and sisters. My blood will be the water in which you shall fall. Ukraine are showing you what all of the world will do if you want this war. When you are telling US that we can't have democracy or peace well I'm sorry, but I would raise arms in an instant. Democracy and mercy are life's greatest gifts, please don't defame them.
If we as a human race are about to enter WWIII then I'm prepared to do what I must do, fuck being ruled by a dictator. I would rather shoot myself in the head. It would be a lot more merciful than what you and your regime have for us that's for sure.
Putin, you are not immortal, no matter how much you wish it to be so, please don't let this be your coup de gra, stand down, heal your nation and let go of your past. Live in peace, chill out and relax. KILLING INNOCENTS is not the way to do this. Lying about it only makes us want to go to war more. Only a shitebag threatens to use a nuke. Face us. Either diplomatic or militarily. One thing I can not stand is killing children.
I stand with ukraine, I prey god doesn't let us down. God it with them, they will stand fast.
All I want is peace, but there comes a point where you need to just tell the truth
