See, here's the thing that gets me.

If we assume that any of this that is going on is even "real," why isn't Russia, or China for that matter, addressing the elephant in the room?

Covid-19 was created in a bio-lab funded by the United States in Wuhan, China - just like these labs supposedly seized in Ukraine - that's the one "deal breaker" for all of these normies that hate what was done to them by Covid. The revelation, with receipts, that all of this was a weapon used by governments and corporations against their own citizens - can you imagine the instability it would cause?

It wouldn't matter what the repercussions were for Russia or China - they have a very powerful, tight-knit trade network built from Pakistan, China, Afghanistan, Russia, Iran, North Korea, all of the "Stan" land with Takis, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, etc. Plus the passable relationships with Indonesia and India - they're all involved in mutual trade, it's arguably more powerful than the old Warsaw Pact.

From a geopolitical sense, they can afford to unleash hell (with information dumps) without fear of repercussion other than making the "white" nations eat each other alive; but they aren't doing it.

It's the end-all be-all informational "nuke" you could say. Exposure of the fact that America utilized backend deals with China to assemble a biological weapon - the Chinese could completely deny knowing about that fact, say it was all our fault (which we'd know isn't true, but would significantly weaken our country on the global stage).

That's the thing that keeps sticking out to me. Russia, from the very start, does not look like they're "in it to win it" from everything I've seen. The pitiful "war" footage never beyond a vehicle being blown up, the lackluster progress (should've had all of Eastern Ukraine by 3/3/22), these things just don't add up. By all appearances, to me, Russia is barely even fighting. If anything, they're sacrificing defective vehicles and that's the only visible casualty. They're putting on quite a show - and so are the Ukrainians.

This entire mess is strangely put together. It's not how I'd imagined a modern war playing out - the footage is boring to be perfectly honest.
