Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-08#1563895 << heh! plenty o' russians in latvia. i think 2020 is the year when the eu bribe moneys for the baltics will begin to dry up, so maybe about that time? lithuania on the other hand is in full "satan putin is preparing for nuclear" warmongering mode. helps the centre-right party and its "foreign policy" line ☝︎

mircea_popescu: of things for the stronger to take advantage of the obese shithead and b) anyone could get more buttraped by putin, or the world generally, than obama already has.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's directly evident the most rabid of libertards realised clinton ain't got it ; and are in their grief dealing mode. pronouncements that "the election is rigged" (phrased, of course, as "this was an unedifying year" blabla), assurances that "whoever wins will be a single term president" as if that fixes anything ; even a pretense that putin will take advantage of trump. specifically. as if a) it isn't in the nature

shinohai: Well the prize is "named" for him (hence my sed) but first recipient Maduro wants to name is Putin lol
asciilifeform lelling over ancient mircea_popescu piece, where 'Putin este ceva intre obraznic si periculos, si intre noi fie vorba o tinta excelenta pentru un micut si elegant asasinat politic executat de unul dintre cele cite mai sunt, douazeci de servicii secrete romanesti.'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: http://cbs12.com/news/local/vladimir-putin-arrested-at-publix << for you.
Framedragger: besides, the cops as force decoupled from very shitty state != the cops as they currently exist. i don't trust the fucking state to manage them, and next time i write about how shit it is i don't want to expect a buncha these dudes to break in and "teach me a lesson in being putin spy by criticizing our great country".
mircea_popescu: lol. gawker is about freedom in the sense putin is about gay sex.
mircea_popescu: gets lulziest when they encounter people who do not want to exchange their life for a fetish, and then explode into "putin doesn't understand how the world works!!1"

BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Sometimes being militant just means putting on a show. It however does not help your case that your new Prime Minister is just a metrosexual mockery of Putin who wants to return CADSOC to its glory days
pete_dushenski: maybe in putin's russia, where stasi are organised, blogger can 'have accidental gas asplosion in apartment', but canada is about as militant as a sack of wet bean sprouts.
mircea_popescu: orlov has a hardon for putin, but putin never ever came close to this.
mircea_popescu: he made peace with putin ~3 days ago.
mircea_popescu: june 15th : "nato runs massive baltic exercise, with little russian meddling" ; july 6th : "putin's military buildup in the baltic stokes invasion fears".

mircea_popescu: wtf else, putin doesn't understand how the world works ?
mircea_popescu: russia seems to be going that way, re putin's out of ideas convo.
mircea_popescu: hence "apple could buy russia - if only it wanted to!" "oh yeah, what about russia ?" "oh, putin just doesn't understand how the world works" "oh yeah ? and who;s going to show him ? you ?" "democracy! humanrights!" "fuck your mother."
asciilifeform: (consider folks who came out golden from su collapse, e.g., mircea_popescu, putin, etc. ; is it because they prophetically set up warehouses of toilet paper ??)
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Who needs GE or Citi when you have Bahamas and Putin endorsing Trump and Clinton
deedbot-: [Qntra] Putin Providing Material Support To Trump-Clinton Candidacy - http://qntra.net/2016/04/putin-providing-material-support-to-trump-clinton-candidacy/
mircea_popescu: you know, sorta like how "russia is not real country because putin doesn't invite obama over"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That list could be interesting if they drop the Putin-Messi sex tape
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Mostly just Putin shaming
asciilifeform: '“The truth is, actually, Putin, in all of our meetings, is scrupulously polite, very frank. Our meetings are very businesslike. He never keeps me waiting two hours like he does a bunch of these other folks.” Obama said that Putin believes his relationship with the U.S. is more important than Americans tend to think. “He’s constantly interested in being seen as our peer and as working with us, because he’s not comple
mircea_popescu: it ended, long ago, various 2nd hand leaders a la putin now and again go to kick the once-great, currently ridiculous loser.
mircea_popescu: hey, we also "cant prove" putin fucks obama in the ass.
mircea_popescu: bought guns, eventually becoming such a problem obama had to pay a visit to putin's residence dressed in nothing but his chastity device and do a spot of work or two, in exchange for putin agreeing to take care of the problem. something like http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-02-2016#1413380 with the colors reversed, if you need visual aids, or else something like ross ulbricht "ordering clean hits" if your memory ☝︎
mircea_popescu: (for the innocent log readers : what happened in syria was that obama went in pretending he is the head of a powerful nation ; putin went in as the actual head of a powerful nation. when the difference between these turned out to be an actual thing in the field, obama whipped out the checkbook, started offering bribes to the locals to hold up signs and shit reading "obama is a real stud". those guys took the money and
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-02-2016#1413461 << yeah, putin just made obama петух and that's ok because nobody knows what the crudely drawn chickens are supposed to stand for anyway. ☝︎
assbot: Putin: We agreed with Obama on a statement in the framework of Syria Support Group to stop military operations in Syria – Syrian Arab News Agency ... ( http://bit.ly/1oyD4Iw )
mircea_popescu: anyway, trying to spin the "putin tore bahamas' arms off and beat him into a pulp with them" into "great foreign policy victory" thing is pretty much 100% of their fare by now.
mircea_popescu: shinohai moslty manufactured by the us "embargo on russia". which so totally hurt putin o noes.

pete_dushenski: last comment on bahamas video : it ends with him behind the wheel of 63 corvette split-window, asking gate guard if he can please leave the white house compound to go grab a coffee with jerrrry, guard says "no," then bahamas just shrugs it off AND TURNS AROUND. "well that's unbelievable, golly" he says. /me cannot imagine putin, merkel, or goddam trudeau taking it on the chin like this.
mats: administration’s fixation on Assad’s primary ally, Vladimir Putin.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-12-2015#1356240 << it was sometime between the first time and the second time hussein bahamas took putin's cock up the ass, just ftr. ☝︎

assbot: Homestead Act for Russian Far East – Putin supports free land handout — RT Russian politics ... ( http://bit.ly/1kP9MUS )
mats: actually, maybe putin does
asciilifeform: anyway the situation with ru torrent bans, prosecutions of the great b00kw4r3z libraries (yes) etc. is that the copyrasts latched onto putin's 'dictatorship of the law' thing of the past decade to try to have their 'rights'
mircea_popescu: maybe it's time to call putin, have some peacekeepers sent in ?
asciilifeform: of course it is possible that putin personally fakes these, aha.
mircea_popescu: heck, the only reason putin can't get rid of the underworld like stalin did is PRECISELY that back in stalin's day they'd have been shot, but these days... welcomed.
BingoBoingo: Phun Phact, Putin is Patek's greatest brand ambassador
shinohai: s'ok Putin got it under control. He'll squash them like they did Afghanistan in the 80's
mircea_popescu: http://thelastpsychiatrist.com/2008/11/the_cia_has_the_same_problem_m.html << if anyone was curious as to HOW blunders to the scale of "hussein has wmds" a decade ago or "assad used wmds" last year happen, and to the whys and wherefore bacalaureat-level educated folk such as obama, rice etc come up with ridiculous nonsense like "putin doesn't understand" or "nobody could have predicted", here is why.

trinque: I recall recently Putin calling for an international something against terrorism.
