The day that Putin will die I'm gonna get wasted drunk and dance and sing all night long in front of the Russian embassy.

They should make his casket a public toilet.

It will happen organically with his tombstone, I'm sure.

If the Russians would still be allowed an embassy in my country, I'd already be doing that.

Yeah, and? All diplomacy is political theater. That response is political theater.

I think the point of saying political theatre is to imply that there is no substance to back it up and it’s playing for the crowd rather than genuine negotiation. I agree that the response is, but I don’t think we should dismiss the term as unimportant or without meaning, even if we disagree with Putin.

Translation: Putin still thinks he can win.

[–] SlothMama@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

He clearly can tbh, that's always been the case

Fuck Putin. If only the USA didn't sponsor fascists in the eastern block as usual. We should have gone the gorbatchev way with a social democratic ussr.
