Russia is just a leftwing boogeyman. I realize that's not a popular thing to say on here on this site. But that's the way I see it.

I also concur with Final Fan, Russia wont start WW3 or a massive war, if anything it will be us, the united states, who instigates the start of it

Tell that to Ukraine...

To be fair to them, Ukraine did face a coup and their elected leader did ask for Russia to "do something"...

Unlike North Korea they continuously act out actual events that are terrible. The leader seems more insane than Trump and the guy in North Korea,  and they are implied in many other destructive acts. 

Or are they just worse at hiding their acts unlike America and China?

 

What should be done about this country that has been a loose cannon for a century?

It's not that they are worse at hiding their acts. They simply don't. Why? Because unlike America, Russia is very upfront with their horrible stuff. The US hides it and lets it leak slowly. If they operated like Russia, I suspect they'd have been embargo'd by the rest of the planet... 

They are not a loose cannon any more than the other two of the "BIg Three". They just are very upfront about it because Russians don't really like hypocrites. There's nothing they hate more than double standards. If the US can do X, then they will do Y just to remind the US that they can do the same shit and face the same consequences and if not, they will keep doing so until the US and the rest of the world applies the US logic to them, whether by intimidation, apathy or sheer fear for their lives. 

I think so far, it has worked: The West is a complete trainwreck and heading downhill fast, and with the US discoordinated into oblivion, there's no one to stop the slide... I think it's a deserved end for us idiots who kept electing sickos to power. 

Hey, if they leave Juncker unemployed, they can't possibly be evil... The enemy of my enemy is my friend after all.
