Quote:Signym, if RT (Russia Today) wants to write believable stories that cannot be verified as fake, the story would be that Russian soldiers are executed. It would be the classic "We Take No Prisoners" story, which doesn't leave evidence like a dickless Russian prisoner who had surgery in Ukraine being exchanged for a whole Ukraine soldier.

Ukrainian frontline medic claims he’s ordered castration of all Russian POWs
Russian soldiers captured by a Ukrainian volunteer medic unit will all be castrated, its founder and commander declared on national television on Sunday. The combat medic, whose volunteer team has been described as “medical angels” by the Western media, said “cockroaches” don’t deserve the right to procreate. https://www.rt.com/russia/552367-ukraine-doctor-castrate-prisoners/
A better idea for RT is to claim that Ukraine is NOT castrating Russian soldiers but instead is giving Russian soldiers a vasectomy. Now that fake story would be harder to prove was fake.

Putin claims he makes $140,000 and has an 800-square foot apartment. His actual net worth is a mystery no one can solve.

On paper, Russian President Vladimir Putin seems like a humble statesman with a modest income.
The Kremlin claims that Putin earns an annual salary of $140,000. His publicly disclosed assets include an 800-square foot apartment, a trailer, and three cars.
But according to some experts, he may be the wealthiest man in the world with assets totaling up to $200 billion.
While that is a ridiculous amount of money for anyone to have, this figure may not be so far-fetched for Putin. Here’s why:
Luxury watch collection
Putin is often seen sporting high-end luxury watches that are retailed for multiple times his supposed annual income.
He has been pictured wearing Patek Philippe’s Perpetual Calendar watch worth $60,000 and allegedly owns a $500,000 A. Lange & Sohne Toubograph, as well as other fancy designs.
$1.4 Billion Black Sea mansion
Putin is rumored to be the owner of a beautiful 190,000 square-foot mansion sitting atop a cliff that overlooks the Black Sea. This coastal property is reputed as the largest private residence in the country and serves as his private palace endearingly called “Putin’s Country Cottage”.
The estate is Putin’s playland, boasting frescoed ceilings, a marble swimming pool lined with statues of Greek gods, a 27,000 square-foot guest house, spas with traditional hammams, a musical parlor, dressing rooms for all his staff, an amphitheater, a state-of-the-art ice hockey rink, a Vegas-style casino, a nightclub equipped with stripper poles, a barroom showcasing more than $100,000 of wine and spirits, an underground tasting room overlooking the water, and much more.
Most of the mansion is reportedly decorated by an exclusive luxury Italian brand called Citterio Atena including Louis XIV style sofas, $500,000 in dining room furniture, and a $54,000 bar table. It even has decked-out bathrooms with fancy $850 Italian toilet brushes and $1,250 toilet paper holders.
On top of all the extravagant furnishings, an annual $2 million is spent just to maintain the property’s landscaping by a 40-person staff.
The Black Sea Mansion was designed by Italian architect Lanfranco Cirillo and cost $1.4 billion to construct. According to a Reuters investigation, the money for this extravagant project was supposedly laundered through the country’s 1.3-trillion-ruble national project called “Health” in which the state bought expensive medical equipment from a company owned by Putin’s friends Shamalov and Gorelov at a much higher rate than the market price. Records show that the two men sent around $56 million to Swiss bank accounts of a Belize company. Then the Belize account transferred approximately $48 million to an account controlled by Medea Investment- a company controlled by Cirillo himself. Moscow Times reports that Shamalov, Gorelov, and Cirillo denied all allegations.
The Kremlin denies Putin’s ownership of the palace saying it belongs to a wealthy businessman. But Russian analysts call it a blatant lie, saying that no businessman can have properties guarded by the FSB (Russia’s federal security service) with a no-fly zone over it.
Aircraft, helicopters, and cars
Apart from the Black Sea Mansion and 19 other houses and 700 cars, Putin supposedly has a collection of 58 aircraft and helicopters including a $716 million dollar plane called “The Flying Kremlin” that has a toilet made of gold. Not surprising considering his taste for grandiose, neoclassical architecture.
And to keep his options open by land, air, or sea, he also has a $100-million-dollar megayacht designed by a nuclear submarine maker from the Russian navy.
$200 Billion Dollar Blackmail
The $200 billion figure was estimated by financier Bill Browder who, in a testimony to the U.S. Senate Judici

In 1912, the German Kaiser visited Switzerland and asked a Swiss minister what the 250,000 strong Swiss army would do if Germany attacked with 500,000 troops. Reply: "Shoot twice and go home."
In 1939, Stalin grew tired of tolerating the existence of Finland on the Soviet Union’s western border, so he decided to crush it. In December, 120,000 soldiers, backed up by six hundred tanks and a thousand artillery pieces, readied themselves to invade Finland.
The Finns were unperturbed. Their generals were competent, their borders were fortified, and their people were ready to fight and die for their homeland.
As Russian bombs fell on Helsinki on the 30th of November, and Soviet divisions began crossing the border, a joke began to spread among the Finns. Whether apocryphal or not, this surely has to rate as the coolest line in history:
“They are so many and our country is so small, where shall we find room to bury them all?”

Be sure to turn on the sound, but if you don't know the language, here is the Translation:
Off camera woman: Hello, could you tell me your thoughts on the fact that all Russian citizens have had dicks drawn on their forehead? What do you think about this?
Woman with dick on forehead: Oh, well, I don't really know much about the topic. I'm not a urologist, I'm a regular person. I don't now what someone drew on someone else.
Off camera: You don't need to be a urologist to understand you have a dick on your forehead. Just look in the mirror.
Woman with dick on forehead: But it's illegal now to look in mirrors, and as for what people say...you know, people say one thing and the TV says another. Who knows what is true?
Off camera: Why not ask one of your relatives? I'm looking at you and I'm telling you you have a dick on your forehead. Why would I lie?
Woman with dick on her forehead: I don't know. These days there are so many fakes, so much provocation. We can't know where the truth lies.

So worthless:
S: You post disinfo from WaPo etc so - why not?
lie
S: Doe that explain YOUR posts?
deflection
S: First you insist it's one fucking man and then you insist it's a DIFFERENT fucking man.
weak. It's still one fucking guy. Dugin is a trusted confidant of Putin's. You know that so you lie about it. Do you have any other speed?
From the poster who whines daily about the lack of "real conversation." I think you must not have gotten enough attention as a child. That's not a dis. You couldn't help that. But this incessant lying... damn. It's like you use it as a defense, to put people off. Ironically, it only invites more conflict. A self created vicious circle. I know people like that in RL. They can't keep a job and after they lose each one they always blame the company or their old boss. Always. Life's ups and downs - always someone else's fault. They never see how it's them. And yet the same conflicts follow them through out their entire life. I mean, if your past the age of 35 and still have no idea... You could live to be 500 and you'd still being lying about Russia. And for why? Fckske - I just noticed you've been posting here for 20 years! And you're still at it! So desperate to defend Russia. Maybe in another 20 years you'll find the courage to tell us why?
