He wants all of the benefits of Tsarist Russia (the autocracy, the Nationalism, the cultural hegemony, the Empire) with none of the drawbacks (the corruption, the military ineptitude, the backwardness, the contempt of Western society). He thinks he's above history, when he's just another cog in the world machine. Sad!
If we're being real, he waited until the USA actually had its shyt together :pachaha:

We pulled out of the Middle East and Afghanistan and our military has kinda been chilling.

Had he really wanted to do this, it would have been like 2007-ish.

Russia is trying to pump fake US into taking action, because it is threatening to attack weapons. Just its the same shyt, the US is not getting involved, and this is why Russia is trying so hard for US intervention; its focusing the narrative away from Ukraine, and instead on NATO/United States.

shyt is bizarre. The narrative will remain Russian bombs.. Putin could have at least pretended to have a ceasefire if he wanted to push that message. Something has gone wrong with that man

Absolute frustration. He is always used to winning, even if he didn't win; he could always claim a victory. Right now, he knows there is no victory scenario, and it's not just that... but he knows he has damaged his country. It's that ability to concede that is his downfall. No one likes to lose, but at the same time, some of the greatest leaders in history took the L, retreated, fixed their flaws, and came back stronger.

Putin doesn't want that, he wants it now.

Yeah but with a full on war he can drop the heavy artillery in the fog of war.

He’s safe in Moscow cause no one has said one word about sending missiles at his country so it’s just two superpowers dropping bombs on a country that’s not either ones.
