We can't

1. We import huge amount of fertilizers,gems and other raw materials including agriculture products like sunflower seeds from Russia

2. Russia has huge gas and oil reserves which can help us control our import costs during crisis like current when Fuel prices are skyrocketing and Russia's traditional customer like Europe is literally hijacking most of oil and gas exports of our traditional suppliers.
Also it's Americans who have literally choked Venzuela and Iran's oil supply or we could have imported from them.So again not our fault that we had to get it fr Russia

3.Our Military infrastructure is heavily dependent on Russia,Half of our Airfoce fighters is of Russian origin to say the least alongside most of Armoured vehicles,Howitzers,IFV etc are Russian origin.Most of our naval fleet is also Russian in origin.

It would take almost a decade to get rid of reliance on Russia and India doesn't want Russia to fell directly in Chinese spehere of influence completely.

4.Whats happening is sad in Ukraine but it not something unique ie Iraq, Afganistan,Yemen,Ethiopia etc

If we don't speak on that there no need to react mindlessly on this,

 

That's why Midterms election is coming up in November. If the people vote the Democrats to stay in power, the USA is FUCKED, but if they vote to have the Rep. to take over the Biden screw-ups are done with *maybe*.

Surprised that people will vote republic after Trump

 

That party was nothing but fascist shills even before trump

 

Why would people vote for facists?

 

We refused to take a stand against ******* China over the Uyghur genocide and over Taiwan. You think we'll take a stand against Russia?

Hits the chord with majority becoz people tends to be subservient to someone who will end all their misery with magic wand
Maggi Ji for example

 

There was this great video or was it an article about how modern conservatism finds its roots to fall of French Aristrocracy.
It was in a nutshell rich people in France were on verge of losing everything after French revolution so the shifted to conservatism as an ideology which means they can remain rich while spewing watered down Aristrocracy in the country

 

Interesting.

 

This was physically painful to read.

Brainwashing with ideas of a saviour who will restore the country to some imagined lost glory, personality cult, religious indoctrination, hypernationalism, making the liberal intellectuals look bad even if they're doing good (by actively sabotaging all the good they might be doing and exploiting their general complacency). Having hostile foreign powers at your doorstep also helps.

There are also anarchists - albeit they are a negligibly small percentage of the voting populace - who will vote Fascists (even though they hate them) hoping that they ruin their countries to the point that people will learn their lesson or just out of spite and thirst for national downfall.

Yes, that is an actual thing.

Blunt is Floridian. Yoru is Croatian.

Ah, yes, the saviour and last best hope of this country. /s

Yeah, pretty much.

But the best example of early modern (19th century) French conservatism/Fascism is probably Georges Ernest Boulanger, who rose to prominence on mass nationalist feelings as well as the support of rural royalists. His movement is (albeit not too widely) considered a precursor to Fascism. If Mussolini can be considered Fascism's father, then Boulanger can perhaps be considered its grandfather.
