These three regions never wanted to leave Russia in the first place, and were arbitrarily 'assigned' by lines on the map, not elections or referendums, to Moldova and Georgia, during the chaotic breakup of the U.S.S.R.. They've repeatedly made clear in referendums and polls for decades now that they will never accept being part of Moldova or Georgia and wish to reunite with the motherland. Since Russia is already at war with the entire west they may as well settle all their other disputes while they're at it. Since Russia can already beat the entire united efforts of the west in Ukraine they may as well take anything else they want too. It costs nothing and nobody can stop them anymore. Russia is victorious on the battlefield, their industry is outproducing weapons and ammunition compared to the entire 'free world,' and their nukes and hypersonic missile delivery systems are better than ours. They have absolutely nothing to fear. So just take everything.
I want to make it clear for the record, before Russia does anything, that I supported it before they did it. Not just because I support the right to self-determination (I do), but also because I support the superior supplanting the inferior, and Russia has shown itself to be a superior nation to the entire western world. There is no clearer test than on the battlefield, and Russia just kicked the west's ass. But Russia doesn't have to be better than Denmark, it just has to be better than Moldova and Georgia, two basket case tiny impoverished nations that are so crappy really they shouldn't even exist. Taking land from them that they don't deserve is the most obvious good idea in the world.
Thirdly, Russia is against the Satanic LGBTQIA+ agenda and the critical race theory open borders Soros agenda, so in any situation I will always support Russia against the west. Every time Russia wins it strikes a blow against western confidence and self-satisfaction. Only by losing wars do cultures realize they're inferior and unworkable. Russia needs to keep beating us like a rug, on any issue, as many issues as possible, until we learn our lessons and change our domestic policy to be more like Russia's. For this reason I would support Russia invading the Baltic nations and taking them too, even though they don't fit into the self-determination or superiority frameworks. Anything that provokes a war with the West and then wins a war with the west is a good thing for the West. Because the west's current trajectory is self-annihilation. Auto-genocide. Our domestic politics and culture is so bad that we must be shaken to the core. To the point that we rethink all of our most basic assumptions and start admiring cultures and mores totally different from our own. We need to be humbled and Russia can do it. So at this point I wouldn't mind them invading France or California.
But I don't need need reason 3 to support these annexations. I don't even need reason 2. All I need is reason 1, the right to self-determination, which any freedom loving person should support. Which America itself is based upon. The moral calculus is incredibly easy this time around. Lines on a map that have changed thousands of times across history are not sacred. If people want to redraw the lines, if they would be happier with the lines redrawn, then why not let them? Borders aren't sacred. Freedom and happiness are. Russia is offering these abused provinces salvation. Why would any right thinking person get in Russia's way?
Meanwhile, I finished Mio's route in Irotoridori no Sekai. The ending was kind of bizarre but that's kinda par for the course in visual novels. The common route is always better than the individual routes. My high opinion of the VN as a whole hasn't changed, and there's plenty of routes left to go. Speaking of visual novels, Key's latest work, Lunaria, is out in English, but only on the Nintendo Switch platform. I do own a Switch so I could get it, but it's not like the work is by Jun Maeda so the Key label doesn't really mean much anymore. It could be good, or not, I just don't know.

"I support the superior supplanting the inferior"
You don't truly believe this because you do absolutely nothing except write opinion pieces on a blog. You do absolutely nothing with your supposed superiority. Furthermore, you write fan fiction about wanting women, rather than just taking one as a "superior." You are all performative.
How far do your opinions actually go? You can seem to write about a lot of things, but none of these posts talk about what you do. Is that all you can do? Sit on the sidelines like a toddler, writing about the world rather than actually participating in it?
