As a threat to its immediate neighbors? Yeah, they're still a problem. As a global superpower? They lost that distinction nearly a decade before I was born

The myth of ww2 has finally washed off and they have returned to their historical performance.

They are only dangerous for micro states bordering them, and in any peer to peer war, like ukraine, they get stalemated to bleed out.

only effective tool they have is subversive propaganda to poison normal societies from the inside out via social media. Since it turns out propaganda designed for idiots (russian serfs) is also attractive to western morons

are you sure they're russians, because if you engage with them like they were russians you get half a dozen responding to you at once ie. thats what they want to engage with.. when you call them out for NOT being russians and merely pretending to make "pro-russians" look like morons who cannot tell their ass from a hole in the ground they genuinely start seething and the threads die shortly afterwards if you insist on your point

the only thing they do is make killing russians socially acceptable

Militarily? No, not even their nukes as it's doubtful they still work. Their ability to infiltrate nations and fuel pointless infighting to destabilize with propaganda that can effectively target "muh minority opinion" chuds? Yes.

Counter point. Russia is stronger than the US.

The last war the US fought itself was the first Iraq invasion in the early 90s. And that was just them taking all their Cold War build up and rolling it over Iraq.

From then on every war the US fought it used other countries to do it, swooped in at the end when they're already weak.

Balkan wars US funded jihadis to weaken governments, then bombed from distance.
Same playbook for a dozen middle east countries.
Same playbook for Ukraine.

Russia on the other hand fights wars itself, and when the enemy is at its strongest (proxy war with the US, EU... even China, Pakistan, etc).

No doubt US fights "smarter" but it might just because their military capability is declining and can't fight their own wars.

the US was not the only actor, so in a literal sense the statement is false, but they were, by far, the largest and most important contributor to the operation

On the one hand, I never bought into the astroturfed 2010s hype built around Russia and their magical cyberwarfare that would just turn every AMERIKKKAN system off at the push of a button or their S-400 / T-14 / Su-57 / Sarmat / Terminator wunderwaffen, or their gachimuchi tier VDV promos.
Had many a heated argument on this very board with slavaboos on these topics, because I kept insisting Russia is a local power that tries to keep up the appearances of a superpower.

On the other hand, I very much expected them to be able to steamroll Ukraine in the event of an invasion, and didn't expect the hot phase of the war to last more than a couple of weeks.
NOTHING could have prepared me for how much of a wet fart Russia turned out to be. Forget local power, at this rate they aren't even a credible threat to fucking Poland.

In Vietnam there were a number of non-American armies fighting alongside the American troops. Even if we limit it to countries whose forces took casualties you'd still have to count
>South Korea
>Australia.
>Thailand
>New Zealand
>Taiwan
>Philippines.
>Cambodia

I think that the last war America fought by itself was the American Civil War, although there were a number of European officers acting as 'observers and advisors' with the senior Federal/Confederate generals.

The myth never existed outside countries far removed from russia. Everybody whom ever had to interact with russians or knows their history knows that the only way they wage war is by throwing bodies at the issue and terrorizing civilians. That's literally been the playbook from like 1800s or even earlier.
That is a strength in a modern world, all things considered, since a modern country wouldn't be able to ignore losses or prolonged fighting in the same way as those mongoloids can. Hence why you shouldn't dismiss the danger those zubhumans pose. If tomorrow they try to overrun the Baltics and US cucks outs with support it will be a big issue.

Maybe even so, yes. I'm not sure how things were done back when muscovy captured Kazan, if all the normies were killed or not, I do know that a significant push was on killing the elites (in the broad sense), as to make the normies not able to resist without having elites to guide them. But during the wars for the Caucasus region? It was a multi-year genocide-tier bloodbath.

Human waves, slaughtering large chunks of the conquered population (especially the elites), and 'Russification', have all been central to the Russian way of war since before there was a Russia.

But as a USA peer, threat to NATO? Lol, lmao even, rofl if you will.
Their only threat is being aggressive retards with nooks, thatโ€™s the only reason they still exist.
In a conventional war? Brazil could beat them, or turkey, or Australia, or Egypt, or Mexico, or South Korea, or Argentina, or Poland.

Absolutely, I think they should be occupied, forcibly deindustrialized, and allowed to die of an engineered famine. All cultural artifacts should be destroyed.
