mircea_popescu: no, translation by a... putin russian.
cazalla: "More than 285,000 people have backed an online petition on change.org, an international website that hosts campaigns, calling on President Vladimir Putin to revoke the decision and hand the food to people in need. " this change.org shit is recurring recently, i come across it even in the local rag
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-08-2015#1223188 << he's the us putin. his fault when any public employee fucks up anything. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Though putin's a bit old to be a twink. A bit saggy too.
BingoBoingo: jurov: At his age isn't Putin too... shaved to be a bear? Pic related https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/bf/3f/4c/bf3f4c4e4cbc909f957f939bb6bc7cc6.jpg
jurov: in other news, area fags organize group jerkoff devoted to putin :D
mircea_popescu: somehow his international relations failures when being humiliated by putin in public are widely discussed
mircea_popescu: they'd prolly fade off the hate radar and we could all move on to hate putin and the chinese hydra like god meant it.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-07-2015#1214859 << reason being "can't be arsed". generally this sort of thing is kept as a reserve measure. just like i go "unless you straighten up missy there's that inch thick stick over there by the wall", putin goes "if you block rt i'ma drop pirate radios all over the us" ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "how obama made sense in english" "how putin doesn't understand how the world works" "how a bored housewife discovered the secret barbers hate"
mircea_popescu: anyway, this is kinda why putin is so amusing to me personally. he's basically trying to preach a jewish sort of islam to russians!
assbot: Logged on 21-07-2015 15:02:22; phf: pete_dushenski: i'm not in a position to save any one country. if i were putin, i'd buy greece, move greeks off some of the islands, and recreate greek drama with imported nubile slavs, but
mircea_popescu: from what i hear putin's been asked this a lot by the various oligarchs
mircea_popescu: Of course, this took a terrible toll on society. Here is what Putin had to say on the subject of “red terror”: “Think of the hostages who were shot during the civil war, the destruction of entire social strata—the clergy, the prosperous peasants, the Cossacks. Such tragedies have recurred more than once during the history of mankind. And it always happened when initially attractive but ultimately empty ideals w
phf: putin be like "oh, so we're buying this shit? i got caash." and germany is like "no no, sshh, we're HELPING, mommy knows best, shoo"
phf: pete_dushenski: that i don't know. i was under the impression that germany came out stand as an independent economic power. with that assumption i don't see german bailout as any different as putin buying the place. with bailout the power lines are all obscured, because the purchase is done within an existing political framework so is not blatant.
pete_dushenski: phf: sure it's sentimental, but sparta didn't invade troy for a woman, greece is being propped up because the eu doesn't want to admit FAILURE and suck Putin's and b-a's cock to compensate.
phf: pete_dushenski: i'm not in a position to save any one country. if i were putin, i'd buy greece, move greeks off some of the islands, and recreate greek drama with imported nubile slavs, but ☟︎
punkman: oh no, they already said Tsipras should stop talking to Putin, the Enemy of All Things European
asciilifeform: putin, is claimed, was actually on the phone with obama, congratulating, while they buzzed the coast
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-06-2015#1181539 << not anymore than putin'd buy greece. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and putin doesn't understand how the world works, and so on.
punkman: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jun/24/russian-troll-factory-sued-underpayment-labour-violations-vladimir-putin
thestringpuller: well for instance she was talking about valentina tereshkova, and said something like, "She's petitioning putin to go to mars, cause the russians, they stay focused"
pete_dushenski: same age as putin for whatever that's worth

pete_dushenski: hm. just checked, putin is 62, so not quite half but close enough
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: as it's entirely up to you how long you feel like steering this ship. except you're, what, half putin's age.
mircea_popescu: i wanna see whathappens once putin retires.
Landgull: Well, what do you do in the USA now? And Putin has no interest in Lviv.
decimation: let us know when Putin the Great asks for german colonists to come back to odessa
BingoBoingo: Best I can guess alf is cold war relic Yeltsin was too drunk to deactivate and Putin found too cute to turn off
mircea_popescu: but then putin turns around, alligns with china economically in exchange for support for his "regions of eurasia" political model
mircea_popescu: obviously, if you refuse to trade with putin, this puts "putin as seen through our trade with him" at a disadvantage.
mircea_popescu: brilliant plan, brilliantly executed. meanwhile, the chinese go to putin's victory celebration, the us press derps about how the european heads of "states" missed the opportunity to be relevant.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130829 << to putin! ☝︎
mircea_popescu: there is some residual interest in exploring this thing, because it will definitely become the standard in ru bureaucracy, and knowing its holes will allow us to complete our collection of michelle obama cockinmouth.jpg with all the random hos putin manhandles.
mircea_popescu: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Medvedev%2C_Putin_and_Tymoshenko.jpg << check it out, someone really liked medveev.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-05-2015#1127054 << no they don't. nobody, including the chinese, including putin, has any fucking idea what this even is, because they lack both the intellectual sophistication to comprehend what matters in the world and go seek the signs, and the power to actually have good advisors that do. ☝︎
ascii_field: and that this is perfectly pedestrian fact, regardless of whether you like usg or putin or kim jong un or hitler
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: https://youtu.be/B1TI7aqgfyk?t=2m2s << putin promised ar oil&gas exploration of 'largest deposit in south america', war machines incl. fighter jets, and - in the segment linked, to jurov's certain delight - a sp. lang. version of 'rt'.
ascii_lander not up to date on ru narcopolice (recall how putin was supposedly set to abolish it, on account of derpitude?) but seems to be the case
mircea_popescu: maybe putin could name statham as his action figure/ambassador to b-a

mircea_popescu: "i support america because if i didn't, you'd just take it all anyway like putin took X's. I'm no Soros."
jurov: aha. and why it's so important that putin "didn't write", but just takes as he seems fit without elaborating on paper?
assbot: Putin decree targets elite’s foreign assets ... ( http://bit.ly/1CCcT6s )
assbot: Logged on 03-04-2015 13:48:47; mircea_popescu: jurov the idea being that putin didn't write himself a piece of paper saying "hey if i don't like you it's ok to take your stuff". or if he wrote, he didn't sign. or if he signed, he didn't publish. etc.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i think putin is having string orgasms. imagine, greece in a compact with russia! sub bases ALL THROUGH THE ISLANDS.
mircea_popescu: jurov the idea being that putin didn't write himself a piece of paper saying "hey if i don't like you it's ok to take your stuff". or if he wrote, he didn't sign. or if he signed, he didn't publish. etc. ☟︎
funkenstein_: this is why north america loves putin
ascii_field: trinque: the implications are unsurprising. merely a friendly reminder from usg that anyone in range is fair game to it to rape with a telephone pole, and that - unless you're mircea_popescu, putin, or one of a hundred other folks who can say 'no' and make it stick, all you can do is to wait your turn.
mircea_popescu: trinque yes. he now has more powers than putin.
pete_dushenski: Pierre_Rochard my putin pump obviously worked, russia pulled back from 17% to 14% since my article
Pierre_Rochard: how much did putin pay you for the russian debt informercial you ran earlier? ;)
mircea_popescu: which is why stuff like "putin doesn't understand how thw world works" can be said with a straight face
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know just like who ? just like putin, except not the real one, the factitious version that "is holding country back" jurov was talking about.
jurov: http://www.rtlnieuws.nl/nieuws/buitenland/evidence-proving-flight-mh-17-was-taken-down-buk-missile << example. and many others that prove putin's bloody hands
ascii_field: unless he hides in putin's house, he'll be disappeared for less than a whitehouse dinner costs

asciilifeform: meanwhile, http://www.politico.com/story/2015/02/ash-carter-russia-vladimir-putin-defense-115421.html?ml=m_po
mircea_popescu: putin is hurting the west with cheap energy about 10x more than whatever "sanctions"
decimation: jurov clicked "like" on "putin please don't invade slovenia"?
mircea_popescu: but the move has both putin and the chinese politburo in stitches. seriously, this means the us will never again deploy its own troops. us military just became an extremely expensive jannisary corp.
assbot: Putin verärgert - EU droht mit Sanktionen ... ( http://bit.ly/1z68nIx )
decimation: http://www.faz.net/aktuell/politik/ausland/europa/putin-veraergert-eu-droht-mit-sanktionen-13440150.html

decimation: maybe he plays 'risk' against putin
assbot: **Putin arrives at airport, gets in line at customs**Customs officer: "Occupation?"Putin: "No, just visiting!" http://t.co/KRn6iYRkkm

PeterL: I have a friend from Crimea, he still has family there, says they are all grateful to Putin for saving them from the fate of the rest of Ukraine
danielpbarron slaps BlueMeanie4 around a bit with a large putin

jurov: when putin arrives everyone will be caught with pants down
asciilifeform: unless account holder is high in putin-wot, he might begin to have problems, no ?
mircea_popescu: respectively "please direct any inquiries to the central bank of china / putin / etc"

mircea_popescu: mats putin is not as against teh muslims as you imagine.
mats: decimation: if there was anybody bright running the show, they'd exactly cave to Putin and let him slaughter the muslamics in europe
decimation: mats: actually that's another point - it seems to me that we have more of an interest in giving putin a little of what he wants in exchange for helping put a lid on the crazy muslims
mats: gotta fight Putin, you know, the man's "evil" and not a true Christian, etc...
mats: what does USG care if Putin shuts off the gas?
mircea_popescu: do you know how "the sanctions" destroyed putin ?
BingoBoingo: RE: KGB - Tom Clancy novels were right except "Jack Ryan" was russian and manifests IRL as Putin.
decimation: putin's landgrab of crimea has a great deal of historical and cultural importance, of which the west is almost completely ignorant
mircea_popescu: strangely, he also seems unaware of teh obama charlie hebdo blunder. i dunno when the us was as politically isolated in its past 1848 history as the time when everyone was in paris except obama. putin was there for chrissakes.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform << btw saw the saudi prince interview where he admits they're best buds with putin now ?
