Read an interesting article this morning about Americans and Canadians moving to Russia to escape the growing religious persecution in these countries. So far, the church burnings haven’t started in the USA yet but Canada has seen over 80 Christian churches burned down in the last two years, because of a false story put out by their government that hundreds of indigenous children were buried under churches and in churchyards.
The story turned out to be a total lie.
It’s not just the churches, of course, as Christians are leaving because of all the Woke, Rainbow, LGBTQ=-+ Trans bullshit. America and Canada aren’t safe for children anymore, not with both governments promoting these child “sex changes” and punishing parents for resisting it. Canada even makes criminals out of parents who call their children by their correct gender pronouns now if the child “identifies” as the opposite sex or “other”. Russia is like the USA was in the 1950’s, they don’t allow this crap.
Vlad Putin was just re-elected president again and of course, it’s still a Putin dictatorship and it’s Putin who’s made sure that all the queer and trans stuff is prevented and stomped down. So I got to thinking, what happens if the US and NATO states really start pushing back in Ukraine and really begin to threaten Russia?
This is Putin’s fifth six-year term as president of Russia and he’s getting well along in years. He’s 71 now and has been reported to have various health problems. In any case, this is his last term as Russia’s president, there’s no doubt of it and he certainly knows it. All that power will be gone, what a shame to lose it, right? And there sits a reason to use some of those nukes, with Ukraine and the intrusions and NATO and all.
What a grand gesture, how the world would remember him, what a hero of Russia he would be, if he destroyed the NATO forces hemming in Russia, ever closer and more threatening all the time. Look at Germany, about to increase the size of their military “in response to the Russian threat” and the US sending troops to Ukraine and France threatening to.
Maybe it’s time for Russia to show it’s true might. And with mighty China as his ally.
I know this is just speculation, but he is kind of nuts and he may just do it.
