Some things to begin with: evacuate properly (like the Soviets did!!), and take your local translators with you instead of betraying them (while accepting the flood of random "refugees" at the same time), and don't send these parody tweets or having your demented president not to answer questions about Afghanistan because he "wants to talk about happy things, man".

You know, I'm not against any resistance if the Ivan ever moves and comes over to squat here. Not only the "allies" (if they ever remain so, and not cut the ties with us over mah trannies and shit) would be of no help, but actually the Russian option increasingly looks like a lesser evil. And you have no idea how hard it is for me to think like that, because while I do like aspects of Russian culture and society I hate most of it, and historically we underwent brutal Russification (and then the export of Communism). I was a "rabid Russophobe" most of my life, and a huge, uh, Americaphile (is it even a word?). Now my entire worldview is crushed.
