That's what the French claimed after World War II.

The French were defeated on the battlefield. The US was not.

And Pyrrhus of Epirus also decisively won all combat in the first two years.

No, he by definition did NOT win DECISIVELY, hence the term "Pyrrhic Victory", which means when you technically win, but you take such high casualties that you are effectively defeated regardless since you are forced to retreat. Again, this didn't happen with the US. The US basically suffered 0 combat casualties for years and years leading up to the withdrawal since we only had a small footprint left in support positions and that was enough to keep the Taliban down UNTIL Biden decided to pull all support, which caused the Afghans to collapse and give up. The Afghans were still fighting and capable of winning in 2020, but then collapsed in 2021 very quickly after Biden totally abandoned them. And the Biden admin KNEW this is why it was going to shit and didn't reverse course because the Democrats wanted out, even if it was going to be ugly.

The NLF were.

Most Viet Cong were a combat force, not rice farmers, and they got utterly destroyed when they tried to launch a major offensive, the Tet Offensive. SOME civilians affiliated with the VC were "rice farmers", but they didn't engage in combat, they did shit like planting mines and traps.

But to answer your question: because the said corrupt criminals are your puppets.

You give the US too much credit. Our leaders are too incompetent to puppet anyone.

And because you have no principles

I have principles. The Democrats don't, they just want power, globohomo, and to impose their weird, destructive socialist ideology. You need to understand that the Democrats are only about half the US, and the other half, myself included, have plenty of principles and oppose them. That said, you could see from the Trump presidency that Trump could not go up against the deep state by himself and win. This is going to be a generational struggle and my hope is that DeSantis or someone similar can finally start to roll back the Left's control of government.

You care about Russia invading a corrupt puppet country because Russia is your enemy and that country is your puppet.

1. I didn't want Russia to be my enemy. There were many times since the 1990s where I and other conservatives thought "Hey Russia, the Cold War is over, let's join forces and both kill some fucking terrorists, okay?" but sadly, Putin didn't want to make nice with us and wanted to keep the Cold War going in his own way. The Democrats even embarrassingly did the Reset button but again, Russia wasn't interested. Okay, then. If Putin wanted to keep us as an enemy, I guess he can get his wish.

2. I oppose Russian (or Chinese or anyone else) empire-building because it constitutes a threat to the world economic and trade order that underlies western prosperity and GDP growth. I wouldn't mind at all if 3rd world countries were colonies of European countries and exploited for resources like the old days. If anything, that would just benefit the whole world. But Russia and China want to OVERTHROW and REPLACE the western-led economic order, and that fucks with my money, so fuck them, they can get fucked wrecked in a war and kept in their place.

3. Ukraine might be corrupt by EU standards, but not as corrupt as Russia.

4. Ukraine has never been a US puppet. Instead, it was simply a democratic country that wanted to turn away from Russia and towards the EU. It will likely fully join the EU after this war is over.

When Azerbaijan invades Armenia, you don't give a damn

I do, actually. I have stated my support for Armenia and opposition to Azerbaijan many times. I support Armenia because it's a Christian nation invaded by a Muslim one, and because Azerbaijan is the aggressor and I view them as Palestinian-like genocidal assholes. I also supported Serbia in the 90s for similar reasons, and opposed the EU/NATO bullying of Serbia.

your puppets are funding the Azeri war machine.

Here is my post complaining that Biden himself is funding them: https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/15JUCeqxGA/joe-biden-is-responsible-for-the/c/

And yet you're not even honest about it, that this is 100% and solely about your own interests, not about the "rules-based international order" which is Western hegemony that should be smashed.

You keep saying "you" attached to comments that clearly do not apply to me. I agree that the liberals should be smashed. If we had an "international order" run by people like Trump, DeSantis, and other right wing leaders, the world would be a much better place that wasn't obsessed with trannies, faggots, and other mentally ill people. We would actually allow countries to maintain common sense immigration laws to preserve their national identity and culture like Japan does, instead of getting fucked like Sweden.

See, the problem is that I have to say 'you' here, while I do believe that you are well-intentioned.

Thank you, but you don't have to say "you", you can say "the Biden admin". And look, I admit that even if Republicans win in 2024, the 95% of Democrats control of career government jobs isn't going to disappear. This is a MAJOR generational problem that will take decades to root out and reform. The deep state of unelected bureaucrats totally undermined Trump and make it much more difficult for him to get things done.

Your criminal government, on the other hand...

We have a problem right now where the only way we are going to reform our government is to keep winning elections so that we can keep up the pressure so the Democrats can't just play for time for 4 years and then take back power like what happened with Trump. We need to hold the Presidency for 8-20 years to really make a generational, deep cultural change in government.

And you should also be honest that the US is never going to lose a war, so change from the outside simply isn't going to happen. China has no shot. Not only is China a lot weaker than it looks on paper, but when it finally starts a war, it won't ONLY be fighting the US, it will be fighting everyone else nearby, like Australia, Japan, and others, possibly India. China is basically the last major threat to the global world order, and it doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of overthrowing it. It's just a question of how messy it is going to be for the CCP to finally fall, and how many people have to die. My preference is for fewer people to die, and that requires a decisive victory.

There is a significant chance that if nothing changes fundamentally with the Democrats, that the US will continue to divide on Red/Blue lines until we have another "civil war" which likely won't be a bloody conflict but will instead be more of a national divorce with both sides refusing to continue with the "winner take all" federal government. If anything it might be the Blue states that try to secede if Republicans keep winning the White House, and I can tell you that I would WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORT select deep blue states leaving the US so that conservatives could control the rest.
