Spreading panic as usual. They won't mention that those so-called nuclear bases near China provide Russia with the capability of quickly attacking US puppets like Japan, South Korea, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. The US may attack Russia from those areas, so Russia has to be ready.

Who else noticed that western media no longer uses words like "shovels", "conscripts", "corrupt", "poorly-led", and "poorly-trained" when referring to Russia anymore? Propaganda can only take you so far, especially when you are losing. 🤣🤡

Stoplying:
The point of my correction of your comment was to keep what you meant but to say it in a correct manner. My point was not to change what you were trying to say. What sense would that have made ?


Correction:

My grammar wasn't wrong, you probably just got to understand English language recently.

How does trying to correct what is already correct make sense to you?
