Comment on ruzzia is the only country unaware of the gun problem in the US

Well, a direct invasion of the US is a bad option and the world knows this.
The problem is with Russia is state controlled media. If Putin was eliminated, the world probably wouldn’t know for at least a week and that would give their media enough time to tell the public who else they should like instead. It wouldn’t surprise me if there is a pre-recorded video of Putin “stepping down” or “retiring”.
If you have ever watched Russian state media, you will see they are probably worse than the Ministry of Truth. Their panel discussions are disgusting, actually. Four or five different people, with four or five different “views” that all converge on the same exact points: West evil, Putin god, Russia war machine invinsible, Russians have the best society on earth, everyone else is a nazi.
(I don’t want to exclude the rest of the worlds media either. Most major outlets have their own agendas for sure, but Russians probably get the most blatant version. They don’t even hide it.)

Russia state media sounds exactly like China’s state media lol
My grands really loves this show on China central television called Cross-Strait (海峽兩岸) that they will invite “unbiased” Taiwan experts how bad the current Taiwan Government is, how bad US is, how China has better military power to Taiwan, and how close the reunion is getting

Everything except for the Taiwan reunification getting closer is pretty hard to disagree with though, the US might end up making it happen much sooner than expected, just not in a way that’s favorable to anyone involved.
In the long term, reunification is pretty inevitable; just by virtue of the US being a failing empire, china will eventually offer them a deal so much better than what the west can offer that it won’t be refused.

China won’t offer a deal; currently in China it is really heavily promoted on China’s own social media for a war towards Taiwan to “leave the island but no one will be survived” ( 留島不留人) while promoting to the foreign country that peace is the only way to handle conflict

I can only assume that is directed to American troops on Taiwan, since the Taiwan residents are still PRC citizens.
