I'm getting sick of this fucking whining about Russia, Russia, Russia.
I have used a specific technique in the past, when people bitched about something and really didn't know what they were talking about – I would just take the subject to the absolute extreme until they recoiled in horror and just shut up and went away.
For example, if a person was caught breaking a non-violent law (taking drugs was an example I have used in the past) and someone was spouting off about "wasting money on rehab" and we should "send them to jail for a long time," I would argue, "Yes, but jail is not enough. We should actually execute them. Let's make an example of them. They don't deserve to live. Let's kill them all! We don't even need trials. Hell, it works for Indonesia and Malaysia and the Philippines. WE know who takes drugs and we should just kill them when we see it. In fact, next time I see someone who is high on drugs, I'm just going to kill them. Right then and there. ARE YOU WITH ME??! Who's going to help me KILL THESE PATHETIC BASTARDS!??"
That usually shuts people up real quick. They don't know how to handle it and then they start arguing your original side, basically.
In the case of Russia, then next time someone starts talking down Russia and saying what a horrible country it is and how they are destroying our democracy, I will start advocating this: "Yes, you are right. We have no other choice than to nuke them. Kill them all! Wipe the entire country off the face of the planet. That'll teach those fuckers about messing with the US of A. And if anyone tries to help Russia and we'll fucking NUKE THEM, TOO!! Are you with me!? Huh?!! I'm going to go call my Congressman right now! NUKE RUSSIA NOW! NUKE RUSSIA NOW! KILL THEM ALL! KILL THEM ALL!"
I'll let you all know how that goes.
