Have you bothered to research Conservapedia's entry on Euromaidanpress?

This is insane. You collect the names of academics and researchers I use as sources, then take out of context quotes like Mearsheimer saying "Russia is a declining power" and spam it as justification for war against Russia. I will contact the owner of the website if you persist in this trolling. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 13:58, February 2, 2025 (EST)

Are you going to purge all the USAID-funded crap from this page, or continue attacking the conservative movement and Trump agenda?

If the page was purged properly, my guess is it would be about 1/3 the current size. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:21, February 5, 2025 (EST)

Use the whole quote. In 2014, the international relations scholar John Mearsheimer wrote: "Russia is a declining power, and it will only get weaker with time."[5]

It is not humanly possible to take such an emphatic quote out of context. Deny this and lose all credibility. Conservative (talk) 21:18, February 15, 2025 (EST)

So what? France has been a declining power since 1812, and they're still around. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 21:51, February 15, 2025 (EST)

At least in my estimation, you didn't support your claim that I used the quote out of context nor did you support your claim that I want Ukraine/West to be at war with Russia. Conservative (talk) 22:13, February 15, 2025 (EST)

In my estimation, you are hardly a student of John Mearsheimer and international relations. And that was obvious when you first cited Mearsheimer's Death of liberalism video and you didn't understand what liberalism in the international sense means versus American domestic liberalism, which he wasn't talking about, at all. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:00, February 15, 2025 (EST)

As Jesus said, Ask, and ye shall receive. But you choose the path of deliberate ignorance. You're too wrapped up in your narcissistic ego and lifted up in pride to ask for help in understanding. This is evidenced by the way you treat visitors to your user page who offer help. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:06, February 15, 2025 (EST)

I can see you clinging to BBC, Reuters, NYT, et al for a while. But you were informed years ago that

• The Moscow Times
• The Kyiv Independent

with all the attendant necessary sourcing were deep state propaganda fronts. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 19:56, February 10, 2025 (EST)

User:Conservative: If you had read The Gulag Archipelago as you claim, you would have a rudimentary understanding of the Russia-Ukraine relationship, which obviously you don't. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 13:52, February 14, 2025 (EST)

Do I "cling" to these news publications? You are definitely not supporting this claim of yours. Given that I wrote these two essays Don't believe all the political news "facts" and predictions you read on the internet and see on the news and Why I prefer to get my news from a wide variety of sources, your claim is going to be very hard to support.

Also, did I claim to read the book The Gulag Archipelago or did I merely claim to read a portion of the book? And given that you are not a mind reader, your opinion on how much I understand the Russia-Ukraine conflict isn't very relevant. This is especially true given that I predicted that the Russia-Ukraine conflict will turn into a frozen conflict (much earlier than what typical wars last) and that appears to be what is going to happen and you took a very different view that was quite pro-Russia and was very maximalist in terms of a Russian victory. Conservative (talk) 22:39, February 15, 2025 (EST)

You published the lies - it is your responsibility to clean em up. Either delete wholesale or revisit and rewrite.

It's not fair to other editors for the disrepute & lies you brought upon Conservapedia with your spamming. And you wonder why Conservapedia has trouble attracting editors? RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:14, February 15, 2025 (EST)

Neither Putin nor Trump want a "frozen conflict". "Frozen conflict" is deep state rhetoric cause they don't want to admit NATO lost. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:23, February 15, 2025 (EST)

You are still not supporting your claims concerning me. And given Russia's current economy, labor shortages, and other factors, the fact remains that my forecast concerning the war in Ukraine has a far greater probability of happening than your maximalist, pro-Russia forecast. Frozen conflict well within 10 years is probably going to be the net result - just like I predicted!

Mearsheimer also predicted that a frozen conflict is the most likely end result of the war in Ukraine with some possible flarups in the future, but he was more pessimistic concerning the timeframe of it happening than I was. The only difference is that I predicted a frozen conflict would happen relatively soon in terms of the average of how long modern wars last and much sooner than the 10 years that modern wars last. And it looks like Putin and the Trump Administration will hammer something out in 2025 in terms of an armistice or peace deal (But I also said that there could be flareups in the future). So it looks like I will soon have three words concerning my forecast of the war in Ukraine: Olé! Olé! Olé! Conservative (talk) 23:37, February 15, 2025 (EST)

Okay smarty. What's the difference between an armistice and a "peace deal"? RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:56, February 15, 2025 (EST)

1 day and no response.

It is obvious you pay no attention to what is being said.

Trump said once the war is over, he wants nuclear arms redactions with the US, Russia & China, and defense spending cut in half. Now, Mr. Big Brain, how is that possible in a "frozen conflict? RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 20:51, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Again, no response after more than 6 months. Although we have been spammed to death with neo-nazi rhetoric about a lack of flush toilets being justification for nuclear war. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 14:58, August 12, 2025 (EDT)

I don't need to support my claims - your crap stands by itself, being discredited and a disgrace to the American conservative movement, Conservapedia, and Donald Trump.

Now Trump is working hand in hand to reshape peace in our time and for future generations with the corrupt kleptocrat and war criminal Vladimir Putin. Good luck with that.

Can you imagine? Trump invited the corrupt kleptocrat and war criminal Vladimir Putin to Washington. This will make a fine exhibit in the Trump Presidential Library as part of his enduring legacy. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:47, February 15, 2025 (EST)

Just imagine, FDR & Truman hung war criminals, but Trump made em the guest of honor at a State Dinner. Such is the history you wrote about Trump's legacy. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 23:52, February 15, 2025 (EST)

Trump is willing to meet with most anyone if it advances America's interest. His meeting with anti-Christian Kim Jung Un is an example of that. He also met with the lightweight Justin Trudeau in November of 2024. Conservative (talk) 23:59, February 15, 2025 (EST)

And everyone has to support their claims if they want people who are not gullible to believe them. Conservative (talk) 00:00, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Look up the word gullible in the dictionary. It's got your picture right beside it. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 00:07, February 16, 2025 (EST)

The Deep State & USAID, not to mention the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign, have been playing you like a cheap fiddle for a long time. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 00:09, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Also, FDR met with the militant atheist Stalin who was responsible for killing many of his fellow citizens via purges and responsible for the widespread persecution of Christians in the USSR. Presidents will meet with horrendous people if they believe the national interest requires it. Conservative (talk) 00:04, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Thank you. Now we know where you stand. Trump will claim it's a victory and integral part of his legacy. You stand with the NeverTrumpers and critics who say it's something to condemn. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 00:13, February 16, 2025 (EST)

(Incidentally, it was Stalin at Yalta who got FDR to recognize Ukraine & Belarus independence by granting them full membership in the United Nations, which conservatives harshly condemned. I see you have come around to the FDR/Stalin, liberal Democrat/Soviet communist position now). RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 00:18, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Alexander Solzhenitsyn on Ukraine from the Gulag Archipelago

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn: From The Gulag Archipelago, part V, chapter 2, “The First Whiff of Revolution.” Published 1974. English translation by Harry Willetts, © 1978 Harper & Row.

"For me this is a painful subject. Russia and the Ukraine are united in my blood, my heart, my thoughts. But from friendly contact with Ukrainians in the camps over a long period I have learned how sore they feel. Our generation cannot avoid paying for the mistakes of generations before it.

Nothing is easier than stamping your foot and shouting: “That's mine!” It is immeasurably harder to proclaim: “You may live as you please.” We cannot, in the latter end of the twentieth century, live in the imaginary world in which our last, not very bright Emperor came to grief. Surprising though it may be, the prophecy of our Vanguard Doctrine [i.e., Marxism-Leninism—Ed.] that nationalism would fade has not come true. In the age of the atom and of cybernetics, it has for some reason blossomed afresh. Like it or not, the time is at hand when we must pay out on all our promissory notes guaranteeing self-determination and independence—pay up of our own accord, and not wait to be burned at the stake, drowned in rivers, or beheaded. We must prove our greatness as a nation not by the vastness of our territory, not by the number of peoples under our tutelage, but by the grandeur of our actions. And by the depth of our tilth in the lands that remain when those who do not wish to live with us are gone.

Official Maidan regime nazi propaganda posted to Twitter in 2022. It was later deleted. [1] Solzhenitsyn evidently was a liar, and the USAID-funded Nazi propagandists spoke the truth, per User:Conservative.

The Ukraine will be an extremely painful problem. But we must realize that the feelings of the whole people are now at white heat. Since the two peoples have not succeeded over the centuries in living harmoniously, it is up to us to show sense. We must leave the decision to the Ukrainians themselves—let federalists and separatists try their persuasions. Not to give way would be foolhardy and cruel. And the gentler, the more tolerant, the more careful to explain ourselves we are now, the more hope there will be of restoring unity in the future.

Let them live their own lives, let them see how it works." Conservative (talk) 18:40, February 16, 2025 (EST)

It's a bit late for you now to do a little Googling, after you published about 3 dozen Russophobic screeds to make peacemaking for Donald Trump more difficult.

"Russia and the Ukraine are united in my blood, my heart, my thoughts", that sounds like Putin propaganda, which all your USAID-sourced hate screeds ridicule and deny.RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 18:47, February 16, 2025 (EST)

A prime example of an inability to understand pragmatic language.

User:Conservative: Bottomline: You went along with all the Nazi propaganda since the justifiable 2022 conflict started, despite warnings and protestations. I will be monitoring closely your editing & trolling activity on Eastern European and Slavic subjects. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 19:29, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Note: The yellow colored Lvov oblast (Eastern Galicia or "Western Ukraine", territory claimed by Poland) is the only part of "Ukraine" where the "Ukrainians" live or the Ukrainian language is spoken. Not even Kiev. As quoted by Samuel Huntington: "Ukraine or rather Eastern Ukraine will come back in five, ten or fifteen years. Western Ukraine can go to hell!" [2]

Also, who added the "cultural contributions" section to the Conservapedia Russia article? Because you were so busy playing with your Russian toy soldiers stomping on Ukraine's flag, I had to add this cultural contributions section to the Russia article. It's a total disgrace that you admire the worst aspects of Russian culture, but don't appreciate its greatest cultural achievements. The same applies to the Saint Petersburg article. Conservative (talk) 19:46, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Russians used to play with American GI Joes made by Mattel and manufactured in China. But economic sanctions changed all that. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 19:49, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Karajou, who has traveled around the world, turned out to be right about you. You don't understand international politics. At this point, I doubt you have visited Russia, Saint Peterburg or Ukraine. And remember, as far as the war in Ukraine and forecasting, your very pro-Russia, maximalist victory for Russia forecast is looking very bad right now, while my frozen conflict scenario (that may flare up from time to time) happening significantly before 10 years is looking very good. Conservative (talk) 19:58, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Quote of RobSmith: "Alternatively, the US can admit defeat, withdraw sanctions, apologize, and accept the treaties Putin & Lavrov offered in December 2021 before NATO decided to go on another murderous rampage. RobSGive Peace a chance 17:25, July 8, 2023 (EDT)"[6]

Is Donald Trump going to apologize to Putin/Russia, completely withdraw sanctions and accept the treaties Putin & Lavrov offered in December 2021. Or is Russia, which has sky-high inflation, the beginnings of stagflation, rising corporate bankruptcies, labor shortages and a lower valued ruble, going to compromise? Conservative (talk) 20:06, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Trump has already cowed, being the first to initiate the phone call. [7]

More evidence of Nazi sympathies: See map image. User:Conservative went along with all the USAID/Nazi agitprop since 2022 that Putin wanted to conquer ALL of Ukraine and invade Western Europe in this clearly provoked NATO war.

Second warning: "frozen conflict" is Nazi-Deep State rhetoric. No one on Trump's team uses the term. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 20:16, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Update: Mearsheimer:

NATO has prepared for this war since its founding in 1949. There is no frozen conflict. You throw yourself on the mercy of the victor. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret} 22:09, February 16, 2025 (EST)

Nazi propaganda from US Embassy Kyiv. This is straight out of Mein Kampf, about Aryan man being "civilization bearers". [3]

Tell me the Insider is not anti-Putin anti-Trump anti-Musk pro-USAID propaganda. That's just one article. Scan all the headlines. RobS^{I don’t really care, Margaret}

Looks like your Foreign Policy rag flip-flopped or moderated its stance:

• It’s Time for Ukraine to Accept an Ugly Peace. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 02:27, March 20, 2025 (EDT)

Imagine that. One of your favorite globalist rags admitting the US, NATO, and Ukraine were defeated by Third World spear chucker's with no flush toilets, incapable of innovation who cannibalize washing machines for microchips, defeated the foremost hegemon for the foreseeable future.

So go ahead. Ignore that the time is now to make peace. See what happens as the West digs its own grave deeper. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 02:31, March 20, 2025 (EDT)

Have you read the latest from you precious Foreign Policy rag? When the Threat Is Inside the White House. What CIA insiders make of the MAGA moles and toadies now in charge of U.S. national security.

(1) Why does Gatewaypundit refer to The Atlantic as "Trump-hating"? [8]

(2) Why do you repeatedly cite The Atlantic as a bona fide qualified authority without identifying it for its left-wing and globalist bias in your screeds?

Antony Blinken: Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! [4]

"Mearsheimer says Russia is a weak great power".

• Russia is the only country (not China) on the planet with enough nuclear weapons to destroy the United States (this makes them, by definition a "strong power", unless you are a totally ignorant ass).

• Given the context which Mearsheimer speaks, the United States needs Russia to counter China (the US can't do it alone).

Spamming an out of context one liner, for a year, on a subject you do not understand is being stuck on stupid.

You would have been an excellent replacement for Antony Blinken in the Biden Administration. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 18:11, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

MAD = Mutually assured destruction.

Also, the New York Post on a drunken Russian engaged in nuclear saber rattling: "Even some of the most senior officials are not immune to alcohol addiction: Verstka reported that former president Dmitry Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chairman of the Security Council, often writes his saber-rattling Telegram posts threatening the West with nuclear annihilation while deep in his cups."[9]

Russian vodka kills more Russians that its nuclear arsenal has killed its foes! "But the biggest reason for the high mortality rate among men is alcohol abuse. “Every year, at least 150,000–200,000 people die in Russia due to alcohol, and about 80 percent of them are men,” Raksha says."[10]

Russia's military that is plagued by corruption and incompetence has struggled mightily for about 3 years against the much smaller country of Ukraine in population a size - weak! See: Russian military weaknesses. Conservative (talk) 18:27, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

Huh? What? What does that have to do with the fact that you carried the Biden/Blinken agenda for 3 years now? RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 18:38, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

Why do you think Biden & Blinken just had their security clearances & briefings cancelled? Could it be because they sabotaged the 2022 Istanbul peace talks? making April 2022 a pivotal moment in the future of global politics for which Trump now is trying to mitigate the damage?

But you keep, day after day, spewing Biden talking points. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 18:44, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

Stuck on stoopid.

Evidence that I carried the Biden agenda? That is something you have never produced! One can easily and almost effortlessly see that both Ukraine and Russia are both authoritarian, corrupt and declining given the wealth of evidence to this matter! And it was clear that Trump was favored to win in 2024 - just like I predicted.

You predicted that the economies of Russia/China are strong and would remain strong - so wrong! I forecasted that these fragile economies would become weaker - which they clearly have!

America first - not Russia first!

And I laugh at the thought that a man obsessed with narcissistic rivalry desperately wishes that I was stupid and less intelligent than him. Lift yourself up via reading instead of trying to bring others down! You have called multiple Conservapedia editors stupid which is exactly what a man with Grandiose Narcissism would do! Conservative (talk) 18:56, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

You use Biden neocon talking points every day (or are you that stupid that you don't see it?). You just spammed them all over MPR & MPL for which Andy rebuked you.

Now, if you wish to argue that Biden & Blinken's security clearances were cancelled for some other reason other than making April 2022 a pivotal moment in the future of global politics, such as Russiagate or the Hunter Biden laptop, than you are essentially confessing to my claim that your disruptive trolling activity for the past 3 years does connect Russiagate, Impeachment 1.0 & the NATO war in Ukraine - evidence I will take to Andy of your disruptive and malicious editing. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 18:57, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

I am definitely not going down that illogical rabbit hole.

Be a man and take me up on my challenge concerning Russia: My challenge to [redacted about Russia given on August 11, 2024]. Unless of course, you are too chicken because you are a girly gossiper who lacks machismo! Conservative (talk) 19:05, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

You were just rebuked by the boss for trolling. Stop it. Find someone else to play your trolling games with. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 19:07, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

I have no boss! Several of the most trafficked websites in the world have been my web marketing clients. Anytime I want, I can put more effort into driving more web content to my material on other websites!

And recently, thanks to your inspiration, I decided to help an anti-Putin website that is now getting hundreds of thousands of page views to its anti-Putin, anti-Russian imperialism and anti-authoritarian governments content! Would you like to inspire me to do more? You are powerless to stop me from helping that anti-Putin website. "Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances." - Sun Tzu.

By the way, recently I sent Andy an email and here is an excerpt: "Andy, A quick note about one of our previous conversations. First, a good friend of mine is moving to the beautiful area of Crimea,Russia in 2025 and I am going to visit him. I will be visiting St. Petersburg, Russia too. RobSmith has never even been to Russia and he didn't even understand some of the basics concerning Russia which I reported on. Like any country, Russia has its good/bad aspects." Conservative (talk) 19:56, March 28, 2025 (EDT)

I don't think this Paul Warburg wannabee is anything more than a propagandist. The name is kinda a giveaway.

If you quote him, "Paul Warburg says...", the hearer is going to hear something quite different than you intend. Now one can argue that "Paul Warburg" is indeed this YouTubers birth name, however a gifted and knowledgeable "expert" such as himself should have had enough sense to use a middle initial or something to avoid confusing his followers.

According to Wikipedia, "The cartoon character, Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks in the Little Orphan Annie series, was purportedly inspired by Warburg's life and times. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 13:04, May 1, 2025 (EDT)

And Russia does engage in propagandizing? What color is the sky in your world? Conservative (talk) 16:09, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

Deputy Ukrainian Interior Minister and Advisor to President Zelensky Anton Gerashchenko is the founder and curator of the Ukrainian nazi kill list. Being that private handgun ownership is illegal in Ukraine, the defiant outlaw pose this government official strikes with his finger on the trigger is particularly intimidating to citizens.

I finally had the opportunity to read this "ButterGate" article which was spammed into at least 17 Conservapedia pages. The Newsweek report was built around a single instance of 2 shoplifters who were apprehended, armed with knives. The information was first posted to X by Anton Gerashchenko, the notorious neo-nazi webmaster who maintains Myrotvorets, better known as the Ukrainian kill list. Sen Rand Paul & DNI Tulsi Gabbard are included in the list.

Next time you hear Conservapedia is Nazi propaganda, don't laugh. A senior Admin made it so. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 06:33, May 11, 2025 (EDT)

Conservapedia needs stronger anti-spamming enforcement. When an editor adds content, it should be in only one place - not 17 - and time given for other editors to vet the content. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 14:18, May 11, 2025 (EDT)

I read the Newsweek article in question and the video in question was merely one data point and there other data points in the article that were stronger. Additionally, the Newsweek article clearly states that author of the article attempted to verify the video via the Russian government, but failed to do so. Furthermore, I have used multiple articles to indicate that butter and other food prices have had big inflation in Russia.

Do you seriously deny that the price of butter, potatoes and other food items have seen big inflation in Russia? If so, why?

Next, you use mainstream news sources at Conservapedia when you agree with them. So I will say again, rules for me, but not for thee. In short, you are being inconsistent. In addition, I will add that the sourcing of your material/contentions is often not good. For example, you asked me to look at a video by some YouTube leftists saying the economy of China was good and this is was while the China was in the midst of some major economic troubles such as their real estate crisis.

At the end of the day, I forecasted the current economic troubles of China/Russia which you took issue with. I was right and you were clearly wrong. Conservative (talk) 04:27, May 13, 2025 (EDT)

By the way, here are two other reports that the price of butter has soared in Russia: Record 82.5% rise in butter prices in Russia halted, Dairy News Today, 9-24-2024 and Russian Butter Squeeze Highlights Growing Economic Toll From War | World Business Watch | WION, 2024 Conservative (talk) 04:42, May 13, 2025 (EDT)

Digression

Early in the biggest event since World War II, which remains the biggest event in human history (after Christ), you once posted a Scott Ritter article on MPR which, in discussion with you and Andy I mentioned that Ritter was a convicted sex offender. The posting was taken down.

Since then, I have posted Ritter on MPR several times. Why? ("rules for thee but not for me") Because if challenged, I can defend Ritter. You, obviously, could not. You perpetually pay ABSOLUTELY NO ATTENTION, NONE, to the sources you use.

You must qualify the source FIRST, not regurgitate bigoted confirmation bias.

Your one attempt to qualify a source in the past 3 years, Prof. Mearsheimer, has again blown up in your face, who now says President Donald Trump is "delusional". RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 00:10, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

Your redundant complaint about "rules for thee and not for me" reveals your splitting (psychology) regarding MSM reporting. You think it's all or nothing - regardless of context. You pay absolutely ZERO attention to context in any reporting, in addition to your weakness or inability to qualify a source properly. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 00:24, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

Mearsheimer mistakenly believes that Russia is still a great power (Although he does concede that it is a "weak major power"). It isn't a major power! Russia is a failed state that cannot protect its borders. Furthermore, in December of 2024, the loss of its Syrian military bases and the further weakening of Russia's Collective Security Treaty Organization (It's lame, zombie like counterpart to NATO) further helped show how weak Russia is.

President Trump correctly points out that Russia's economy is a "disaster". According to Mearsheimer, a country's military power rests on its economic power. Russia is barely a high-income country and it will surely become a middle-income country again which is why you did not take me up on my challenge. I cite: Russian economic meltdown as light industry 'collapses' and thousands of firms go bust. Oil prices plunge. Sanctions bite.

If you want to talk about Russia with someone, please do it with someone else. I would rather talk about Kenya which may become the next "Singapore of Africa". Kenya's high church attendance rate soars above Russia's very low church attendance rate and its rate of homosexuality within its country is lower than Russia's. And unlike Russia, Kenya does not have an AIDS epidemic! Please post more about Kenya on MPR than the declining country of Russia which is a failed state and is declining at an ever increasing pace! Conservative (talk) 07:54, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

"a country's military power rests on its economic power"

Your understanding of foreign policy and international relations hasn't even reached the sophomoric level yet. Just keep quiet. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 14:52, May 23, 2025 (EDT)

Dominican Republic, Kenya sign agreement supporting Haiti security mission.[11]

Blessed are the peace makers! Kenya has one of the highest church attendance rates in the world and one of the lowest rates of homosexuality in the world (lower than Russia's).[12][13]

If only Russia was more like the peaceful Kenya! Russia is an imperial nation that is involved in 4 wars right now and its defense spending to GNP ratio is much higher than the USA's!

If Russia didn't spend so much on the military, perhaps it's civilian business sector wouldn't be such a disaster! It's too bad that Putin doesn't learn from Trump and spend more time on getting investment into his country and working out excellent trade deals such as the one that Trump worked out with the UK recently. And more investment into the USA and trade deals are on their way!

Donald J. Trump and certainly not Mr. Mearsheimer (who mistakenly believes that Russia is still a great power and is a fan of the idiotic Machiavelli) is significantly making the USA greater than it already is! By the way, Israel will continue to be far more powerful than its critic John Mearsheimer! Mearsheimer errantly said Israel was in big trouble during the height of the War in Gaza. It never was in big trouble! And now Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah are very weak!

At the same time, I do agree with Mearsheimer that the most likely outcome in Ukraine is a frozen conflict. Your maximalist forecast regarding Russia and the war in the Ukraine will be one of the many wrong things you have said about international politics. Conservative (talk) 09:12, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

This mainspace page evidently refutes your previous position taken in April 2022.

Bottomline: You can't learn this stuff on the fly, and you are a long way from being able to speak, let alone write on the subject.

All you do is spam confusion to Conservapedia readers, and young readers in particular are the biggest victims of your delusions about your own qualifications and the neo-Nazi globalist rants you spam into Conservapedia. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 23:59, May 13, 2025 (EDT)

Garry Kasparov can win chess matches quickly when he has many more chess pieces on the board.

Kasparov is a notorious high profile and well-funded anti-Trump, deep state globalist operative and mouthpiece through various USAID NGOs. How US deep state sponsored Russia's ‘opposition’ via USAID: Garry Kasparov.

The war in Ukraine made Russia go from being a weak major power to no longer being a major power. If only Russia hadn't wrecked the peace making deal in April 2020 via changing the terms of the peace agreement via a ridiculous proposal. Despite Russia having a far bigger population than Ukraine, it is having a hard time in Ukraine. Conservative (talk) 10:21, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

P.S. The guy who has obsessively spammed the supposed importance of April 2022 (despite exceedingly few people knowing what they did on April 6, 2022) is talking about spamming. That's rich! Your manic obsessiveness about April 2022 definitely doesn't make you look like a paragon of mental health! It's odd behavior to the nth degree! Conservative (talk) 10:30, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

But I can assure you that such people are wrong every day of the year and year after year about various matters! You were wrong about the future prospects of Russia and China and now these countries are financially hurting and face big demographic crises. Get over it! The sun will still come up tomorrow - despite you being terribly wrong about Russia/China! Conservative (talk) 11:11, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

Gary Kasparov, USAID and the CIA

As usual, Ken is a day late and dollar short: Kasparov is a notorious high profile and well-funded anti-Trump, deep state globalist operative and mouthpiece through various USAID NGOs. How US deep state sponsored Russia's ‘opposition’ via USAID: Garry Kasparov.

When Kasporov run for the presidency of Russia, the the public venues for his rallies kept claiming broken pipes, etc. etc. So the rallies never took place. Thank God we live in the USA where Trump was able to hold rally after rally after rally without central government interference! Conservative (talk) 14:23, May 14, 2025 (EDT)

LOL. Must've been undercover FBI working for James Comey or Chris Wray, ehh?

"Thank God we live in the USA where Trump was able to hold rally after rally after rally without central government interference!" Okay, with the Trump assassination attempt, we have another contribution of yours to Conservapedia proven wrong (see Andy, User:Conservative spams so much nonsense, it takes months to catch up and read it).

All this sounds like recycled Darwinism, Natural selection and survival of the fittest:

• America will be the leading power for the foreseeable future;
• Russia is a declining power;
• etc. etc. etc.

Survival of the fittest is a famous phrase coined by British economist Herbert Spencer in Principles of Biology (1864), which he used to summarize natural selection. He relied on the phrase to reinforce his theories on the development of companies and societies in general.

The concept became a foundation of the eugenics movement, which sought to eliminate "less desirable" people. The phrase also went on to promote harmful ideas such as Social Darwinism and fascism.

Civilizations/societies don't last forever. A cursory reading of the Bible will tell you that.

Russia, war in Ukraine and China

There are a lot of variables that makes the war in Ukraine unpredictable. For example: 1) Will Trump cut off funding for Ukraine or lesson it? If so, how much will Europe make up the slack? 2) Will Russia's military escalation work and if so to what extent? 3) Will Ukraine's kill zone strategy sufficiently blunt Russia's summer escalation? 3) Problems with the Russian economy and Russia's economy is finally stalling.[18][19] Wars are expensive to run. 4) Will Senator Lindsey Graham obtain a veto-proof majority on his secondary sanctions legislation on Russia? If not, will Trump eventually impose secondary sanctions? 5) The price of oil is a key variable as far as Russia's ability to fund its military. Will the price of oil fall further, and if so, by how much? 6) How many Soviet era tanks does Russia have that can readily be upgraded to make them battle ready?

John Mearsheimer said wars are often unpredictable and this is a true statement.

Next, given some new goals I set, for a period of time, I will not be following the war in Ukraine closely nor will I follow Russian news closely. Furthermore, the more I learn about Russia, the more I am convinced of it getting weaker and weaker and weaker. And it's debatable if Russia is still a major power. So as far as my interest in international politics, I foresee my interest in Russia falling because Russia is getting weaker and weaker.

As far as China, a key ally of Russia, it has a lot of economic problems, it has a falling population size and it appears to be growing weaker. As a result, in terms of my interest in international politics, my interest in China is becoming less and less.

In terms of the great commission, Africa is far more fruitful in terms of Christian conversion than Russia so as a Christian it makes more sense to focus on Africa more than Russia if I am going to help Christendom advance the great commission. Conservative (talk) 20:34, May 24, 2025 (EDT)

Thanks to America's position in the world and the past/present influence of the UK and the Commonwealth, there are about 1.5 billion English-speaking people in the world. And many of these people are friendly and cordial people that one can have constructive dialogue with. Also, I am opening to learning other languages. So at the end of the day, there will not be one iota of regret or sense of loss when it comes to ending communication with you. Conservative (talk) 03:46, May 25, 2025 (EDT)

Samantha Power, head of USAID & former UN Ambassador who illegally unmasked 262 citizens in the FISA abuse scandal, threat to Trump. Brennan handled the Disposition Matrix which killed 4,700 innocent bystanders targeting 800 terrorists.

Should John Brennan be Charged with Treason?

It was John Brennan who said Trump should be arrested and shot for treason cause he met with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki in June 2018.

Recall, it was Lindsey Graham who said to the Azov Battalion in December 2016, " I believe 2017 will be the year of offense", i.e. retaking Crimea. Obama nixed the aggression in the last two years of his term and left it for Hillary. When Trump was briefed on Washington & NATO war plans, Trump nixed it ("It never would have happened on my watch"), leading to John Brennan's accusation of Trump's treason (also, Eric Ciaramella of Impeachment 1.0 fame is the guy who said Trump meeting with Lavrov in the Oval Office in advance of the June 2018 Helsinki Summit leaked the fake news that Lavrov was carrying instructions to Trump from Putin).

But never mind all that.

While the French historian Emmanuel Todd was one of the first people to predict the fall of the Soviet Union, I disagree with him on a lot of things. RobSmith doesn't understand the value of using a lot of sources to inform oneself and instead has chosen to cocoon himself in a lot of Russian/Chinese propaganda nonsense which is why he was caught with his pants down when both China/Russia started experiencing woe after woe on the economic front. I correctly predicted the financial woes of both China/Russia. I have looked at both pro-Russia and anti-Russia news sources and as a result have had a more accurate view of Russia. Conservative (talk) 11:20, June 9, 2025 (EDT)

As to User:Conservative's redundant comments about the China or even Russia's economy, I have never discussed these matters with User:Conservative which he constantly, constantly lies about & mischaracterize. He DOES NOT know or understand my views on these subjects because I have never ever anywhere discussed them with him, which he constantly, constantly lies about, even on other editor's talk pages. That is not how good faith is built. And the reason I have never ever discussed China or Russia's economy with him is simple: (A) he does not understand basic economic concepts; (B) he does not understand basic economic concept as they apply to the US economy.

I trust this clarifies matters. Conservative (talk) 03:12, June 5, 2025 (EDT)

Google blacklisted Conservapedia long before Trump's 2021 banning from Twitter (based on their community standards), InfoWars banning from Amazon.com in 2016 as a supposed "fake news" site, and even before your conspiracy theory to rally support from sockpuppets for my de-sysoping in 2011.

In part, Google's blacklisting is related to Conservapedia's total lack of written Community Standards, coupled with your unregulated hate screeds against gays and atheists. While those articles still rank, few other editors' contributions get around the shadow banning. Your SEO "talents" taught you to spam up links to mainstream neocon, globalist and other USAID propaganda sites, which has destroyed reader traffic from genuine conservatives.

This is basically the same thing you did in the early days - baiting in liberals rather than conservative editors and readers to build traffic. Only today, spamming up links to MSM & USAID-funded think tanks rather than alternative media and news sites doesn't generate ANY traffic or new editors (not to mention the confusing, contradictory text and spam you add). And why should conservatives visit CP? What information can they learn here that differs from CNN or any other MSM site?

You have no record anywhere of ever working to build a conservative internet community. In fact, your actions have always been harmful and counterproductive, as few conservative editors want to participate in the project after more than 15 years. You were the second to co-sign a project here founded by a sockpuppet of a Rationalwiki founder.

The good news is, at least the climate hoax is over. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 14:12, July 26, 2025 (EDT)

Let's do the math: 5,000 per month/30 days = 166 per day. That means for everyday without 166 Gerans launched, there's a bigger attack coming at a later day. So maybe they want to wait til the US supplies more air defense systems next spring, which then will be overwhelmed by a massive drone and missile attack.

Mathematically, there is no way for the US, NATO or Europe to catch up with either offensive or defensive missiles. And the stubbornness to address the "root causes", i.e. arms control agreements, is just another massive waste of time, money, and human lives. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi, Lindsey Graham, and Adam Schiff's stock portfolios keep increasing in value. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 14:40, July 26, 2025 (EDT)

Now if Western Europe believes it can set up industrial facilities to upset or overcome the imbalance (even with 400% higher energy costs to operate the factories without Russian energy), the factories will just be Oreshniked. Oh, but that means NATO Article 5 being invoked, without sufficient food or energy exports from Russia to feed the NATO European war machine and an unwilling populace to participate. (Alternatively, the NATO war machine could receive food and energy exports from the United States, which means higher inflationary costs for American consumers both with immediate supply and demand shortages, and in long term financing being that an EU at war wouldn't be able to pay for the deliveries for an extended period of time, if ever). Okay, this calls for a US carrier, air and submarine nuclear first strike on Russia. Maybe so. It doesn't matter. Even if the Russians preempt it with Sarmat, either way whoever does the first strike, the DC to Manhattan corridor is no more in a single strike. "We go to Paradise, but they won't have time to repent".

So this is why the US, UK, & NATO have chosen the terrorist option, continuing an asymmetrical hybrid war of terrorism inside Russia after Ukraine & NATO's conventional forces are defeated. Of course, that invites the same retaliatory measures on US soil (against both civilian and military targets), if the United States chooses to continue or prolong war with Russia, China, North Korea & Iran.

Bottomline, neither Russia, China, India, Brazil, Iran, Cuba, North Korea or any BRICS nation is going to bend the knee to the United States. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 15:19, July 26, 2025 (EDT)

Setting aside the fact that drones don't solve Russia's problem with their airlines, even if Russia "wins" the Russo-Ukraine war it will be a Pyrrhic victory given the high costs of the war and the loss of the higher profit margin sales of oil/gas to Europe and other opportunity costs. On top of this, the Russians could face a multi-decade insurgency in Ukraine like the Brits did in Northern Ireland.

I do hope there is a reapproachment as far as Russia and the West someday, but its seems far away now and I may never see it in my lifetime. Conservative (talk) 14:24, July 27, 2025 (EDT)

Note about Russian commercial airlines

The Soviet Union never had commercial airlines. Aeroflot, the largest airline fleet on the planet, was built and owned by the Soviet military. For a fee, it would transport government bureaucrats, civilians, or tourists. It was the Soviet military's biggest money-making enterprize.

When the Soviet Union collapsed, Areoflot's ownership was transferred to the state and partially privatized, with the state owning about 75% of its stock and 25% offered to the public. Other smaller, regional airlines also began to compete. But Aeroflot's primary function of rapid deployment for the military is unchanged.

Rail transit remains the primary way people and goods are transported across the RF.

Recent NATO drone attacks inside Russia often target commercial airports and have disrupted traffic. But since few people use air travel, it's more of a problem for the smaller air transport providers. So yes, maybe in the European part of the RF, a rinky-dink outfit like Ozark Airlines "may collapse", unless it gets a government contract.

That "news" item is typical of trying to translate Western idioms into the Russian experience. Problem is, it is total BS without context.

Aeroflot remains a strategic national security vital asset, and is not in danger of "collapsing".

The real discussion should be on the joint Russia-China project to develop a commercial passenger jet to compete with Boeing since Russian sanctions were imposed.

In response to something about taxes on exotic foods and restaurants

This guy is a morning radio talk show host. Note, Putin didn't impose this crap in a supposed "censored" society. It's the public reaction, now open for public discussion, by the people's democratically elected representatives who have proposed this stuff.

So let's interpret this war propaganda properly: Somebody posted in English criticism of Putin because some parliament members proposed a tax on foreign foods & restaurants to support the war effort.

Even in Russia, there are people as stupid as we have here in the West and United States, both among elected representatives and the public, when discussing global or political issues. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 16:52, July 27, 2025 (EDT)

Notes

Trust the science.

Maybe that's why America is in, as Charlie Kirk says, slow motion decline. We have too may "strategic thinkers" who use AI rather than their own God-given brains.

- Jimi Hendrix

The statistic that approximately 22% of Russian households lack access to indoor flush toilets (or centralized sewage systems) is rooted in official Rosstat data from recent years, with similar figures reported as of 2024–2025. This equates to roughly 30–35 million people, primarily in rural areas and smaller towns, relying on pit latrines, septic tanks, or outdoor facilities. While this highlights significant socioeconomic disparities and infrastructure gaps in Russia's vast countryside—exacerbated by historical underinvestment and geographic challenges—it has zero direct effect on Russia's position in the strategic nuclear balance.

Why It Has No Impact on the Strategic Nuclear Balance

The strategic nuclear balance refers to the relative capabilities of major powers (primarily the U.S. and Russia) to deter aggression through credible threats of mutually assured destruction via intercontinental-range nuclear forces. This is determined by factors like warhead numbers, delivery systems (e.g., ICBMs, SLBMs, bombers), command-and-control reliability, and survivability—not civilian domestic amenities. Key points:

Russia's Nuclear Arsenal Remains Robust and Modernized: As of 2025, Russia possesses an estimated 5,459 nuclear warheads (per Federation of American Scientists estimates), including ~1,718 deployed strategic warheads across a nuclear triad: ~330 ICBMs, 12 SSBNs with 192 SLBMs, and 58 strategic bombers. This maintains rough parity with the U.S. (~5,177 warheads total, ~1,770 deployed). Modernization continues, with systems like the Yars ICBM completing rearmament in 2025, Borei-A submarines entering service, and emerging capabilities (e.g., Kinzhal missiles, Poseidon drones) enhancing flexibility. Nonstrategic (tactical) warheads number 1,000–2,000, offsetting perceived NATO conventional advantages.

Nuclear Deterrence Relies on Specialized Military Infrastructure: Effective deterrence requires secure, hardened facilities (e.g., silos, submarine bases, mobile launchers) and a separate industrial base for warhead production and maintenance—none of which overlap with civilian plumbing or sewage networks. Russia's Strategic Rocket Forces, Navy, and Air Force operate independently of household utilities. Domestic civilian infrastructure affects quality of life and economic productivity but not the "second-strike" capability that underpins deterrence.

Indirect or Broader Economic Pressures Are Minimal Here: While Russia's overall economy faces sanctions and strains (e.g., diverting ~6–8% of GDP to defense in 2025), nuclear programs are prioritized and ring-fenced. Civilian infrastructure lags (e.g., only ~77% of households have centralized sewage) don't siphon resources from nuclear sustainment; delays in systems like the Sarmat ICBM stem from technical issues, not toilet funding. Propaganda often exaggerates such stats to undermine Russia's great-power image, but they don't alter deterrence calculus.

In short, Russia's nuclear posture remains credible and balanced against the U.S./NATO, regardless of outhouses in the taiga. If anything, this toilet gap underscores why Russia emphasizes nuclear weapons as a "great equalizer" against conventional or economic weaknesses—but it doesn't tilt the balance."

Traffic to wiki as a whole: Conservapedia is often down now too due to DDOS attacks. "358% surge in global DDoS volume in 2025... By 2029 onward, declines moderate to 20-25% annually as the site becomes a low-traffic niche relic, with DDoS contributing to minimal recovery potential.

Your choice. Keep this in mind.

"Conservapedia.com is a niche, conservative wiki encyclopedia with relatively low and declining traffic. Based on recent data, it averaged approximately 85,000 monthly visits in 2025 (derived from August 2025 figures of ~87,000 visits, adjusted for reported month-over-month drops). This baseline reflects heavy reliance on search engine traffic (about 20–25% of traffic) and direct/referral sources, with a global rank in the low millions.

...traffic is likely to decline steadily.

• 2026: ~12% decline
• 2027: Additional ~15% decline
• 2028–2036: ~18% annual decline

By 2036, traffic could stabilize at a minimal level (~10,000 monthly visits), resembling a small blog rather than a viable encyclopedia. This represents an ~87% cumulative drop from 2025, aligning with the site's historical niche status and the assumed headwinds.", Source: Traffic to Conservapedia

Traffic to Conservapedia: 2011 to 2025

Conservapedia has dropped from #60,000 globally in 2011 to #360,000 now under your "expertise" as an SEO "specialist". From 20,000+ daily to 2,900 daily now with about 3 active editors. I don't know how much further it can go down.

And the criticism has only gotten worse from "more credible" sources, like United States Government, for example. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 21:25, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

A little more than a year ago you & I spoke on the phone. We agreed that you, me, and Andy each had a daily following of about 5,000 readers, totaling about 15,000-18,000 daily visitors. In your narcissistic rage, you wiped out mine, Andy's, and half of your own regular following. Your open threats to do more harm to Conservapedia are somewhat hollow and meaningless now. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 21:38, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

My hands are largely tied as far as helping Conservapedia's SEO to a big degree. For example, my SEO recommendations to improve the website could be implemented in days, but I am not getting green light from Andy. Web traffic would go up by at least 20,000 to 30,000 monthly visits as a result. Using some computer programs, the current dead links could be replaced with Internet Archive links, the unused pictures could be deleted and the thin content pages that are stub pages, etc. could be deleted. These are all brakes on Conservapedia's SEO. Also, moving up to the latest version of MediaWiki would help Conservapedia's SEO. When you add all this up, this is about 300,000 yearly extra SEO visits. Normally, I would persist and get the green light from Andy, but I am no longer interested in doing this. I am pursuing other things now. Say goodbye to those 300,000 yearly extra web visits forever in all likelihood.

On top of this, there are the DDOS attacks.

As far as us talking on the phone again, in all likelihood, we will never talk on the phone again. I have no interest in doing so. Conservative (talk) 21:46, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

Comgrats. With your DDoS clickbot attacks to promote yourself, and your admission to shadow banning active users with Negative SEO, you managed to complete the Mission of Rationalwiki of turning Conservapedia from a conservative alternative to Wikipedia into a "small blog". And it didn't just happen overnite. It's been a long time in coming. RobS^{Zelensky Must Go!} 22:12, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

RobSmith, you don't have a big following. The web visits to your user page are merely 200 visits per month, whereas the web visits to my user page are 2,000 page views a month. And I don't believe you ever had a big following. But if you did, given Trump growing disappointment with Putin who he now calls "crazy", your Putinism would certainly harm any following you have from a website that gets half its web traffic from the USA. In addition, Russia is in decline and generally speaking people admire strong things and not weak things.

The biggest threat I could make to the website is to simply not push for SEO reforms given that I am positive that my above mentioned SEO changes would make the web traffic of Conservapedia go up by 25,000 to 30,000 visits a month. By the way, your web pages that do rank high for various Google terms could lose their ranks fast by a SEO who improves the rankings of competing pages. A few links built to competing pages and "badda boom, badda bing" your articles lose SEO traffic from Google, Bing and other search engines. No negative SEO needed such as convincing web masters to delink from your articles in an ethical way. A talented SEO could make your articles lose their Google rankings in a number of ethical ways.

One thing for sure. Don't come crying to me when your articles page views take a dive - which is going to happen if you persist in your present course. Conservative (talk) 22:19, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

Expect the traffic to go lower. I know the various web marketing technical indicators indicating that a website is on a declining trajectory and Conservapedia has them. Of course, if I convinced Andy to make some SEO changes and other changes like I did in the past, things would look much better. But I am no longer interested in doing this - despite the fact that my SEO recommendations would increase Conservapedia's SEO traffic by 20,000 to 30,000 visits a month and that is a conservative estimate.

RobSmith, the web pages that rank for similar terms to your Conservapedia articles with grow in relative strength while yours will grow weaker.

You shouldn't have gone out of your way to try to annoy a SEO. Big mistake.

If you still have any high hopes for your articles getting a lot of web traffic, I would stop having those high hopes.

If you still have hopes of being as well-known as Plato, Socrates and Machavelli, I would give up those high hopes.

more senseless trolling & harassment

A key assumption of the below Conservapedia web traffic projections is me not lifting a finger to get Andy to implement my SEO recommendations which would cause the website to have about 300,000 more annual visits (20k to 30K extra monthly visits).

• 2026: ~12% decline
• 2027: Additional ~15% decline
• 2028–2036: ~18% annual decline

By 2036, traffic could stabilize at a minimal level (~10,000 monthly visits), resembling a small blog rather than a viable encyclopedia. This represents an ~87% cumulative drop from 2025, aligning with the site's historical niche status and the assumed headwinds.", Source: Traffic to Conservapedia

Query: Conservapedia.com has about 58,000 pages. Approximately how much SEO traffic a month is Conservapedia.com losing a month due to its thin content problem, dead link problem and it not having the most recent version of MediaWiki?

Summary: Assuming fixes could double SEO performance based on similar wiki optimizations, Conservapedia is likely forfeiting 20,000-30,000 visits monthly—enough to boost total traffic by 25-35%.

That's about 300,000 web visits a year. Conservative (talk) 23:45, September 22, 2025 (EDT)

This loss of traffic has happened since my desysopping in 2011, which Andy has admitted was his mistake of listening to you.

After my re-sysoping, rankings stabilized and even improved somewhat - until your bloated head & ego got offended cause I got tired of you sticking your know-nothing nose in conversations about a subject you didn't even have a junior high school understanding of.

If you had any qualms about my writing on American foreign policy, there were more than a dozen ways to engage on the subject. But you didn't use them. You chose to target an individual editor for harassment (thinking you were dealing with PZ Myers or some idiot stooge you engaged with in the past). You were wrong. And when asked by me or Andy to stop, you doubled, tripled, quadrupled, and quintupled down, convinced of your own righteousness. And the net effect is you killed Conservapedia.

And you still don't care, cause your own self-image comes before Conservapedia.

spamming & trolling part 2

We'll see how well RobSmithpedia does in the coming years. With me no longer pushing Andy to implement SEO improvements to Conservapedia and Russia's economy probably seeing big troubles within 2 years, the SS RobSmithpedia will probably be as mighty as Russia's only aircraft carrier the Admiral Kuznetsov which is likely to be dismantled or sold! Conservative (talk) 00:20, September 23, 2025 (EDT)

First round of questions

• If the SEO User: Conservative at Conservapedia were to push to get all his SEO recommendations implemented is it likely that Conservapedia's traffic would go up. If so, how likely? How much would it go up over the course of 10 years? If he decided to do nothing in this regard, what are the odds that Conservapedia would lose traffic in the next 10 years?:

"Total 10-Year Increase: 3-5x baseline traffic (to 260,000-435,000 monthly visits by 2035), equating to ~3.1-5.2 million annual visits. This is optimistic but grounded: top-ranking pages capture 30-50% more clicks, and sustained SEO can double traffic every 3-5 years for established sites. Risks include stagnation if recommendations are ignored post-implementation or if Google deprioritizes wiki-style content. Odds of Losing Traffic Over 10 Years Without Action.

If User:Conservative does nothing, the odds of Conservapedia losing traffic over the next 10 years are high—I'd estimate 80-90% probability of net decline (e.g., 20-50% drop from current levels by 2035). The site's trends already signal vulnerability: recent 36% month-over-month drop, worsening global rank (from 206,000 to 320,000 in three months), and stagnant growth despite past spikes (e.g., 2016 election surge). Without SEO, factors like algorithm shifts (e.g., favoring fresh, diverse content), rising competition from conservative outlets (e.g., Epoch Times), and AI overviews reducing clicks (projected to cut 20-30% of organic traffic by 2028) will erode visibility. Niche wikis like this often decline 5-15% annually without optimization, per traffic analytics. Loyal direct traffic (~41%) might mitigate short-term losses, but organic erosion could halve overall visits in 3-5 years, leading to a death spiral of reduced engagement signals."

Key point: There you have it. If I choose to do nothing, Conservapedia will go into a "death spiral". RobSmithPedia will die.

I trust this clarifies matters. Conservative (talk) 06:55, September 23, 2025 (EDT)

Second round of questions, additional information

If the SEO User: Conservative at Conservapedia were to push to get all his SEO recommendations implemented is it likely that Conservapedia's traffic would go up. If so, how likely? How much would it go up over the course of 10 years? If he decided to do nothing in this regard, what are the odds that Conservapedia would lose traffic in the next 10 years? If Russia and Vladimir Putin were to experience significant problems in the next 3 years, would this likely cause Conservapedia to lose even more traffic? How much additional traffic would it lose?

"Yes, if Russia and Vladimir Putin face significant problems in the next 3 years (e.g., economic collapse, military setbacks in Ukraine, or internal unrest leading to regime instability), this would likely cause Conservapedia to lose even more traffic. The site frequently covers Putin/Russia in a mixed but often sympathetic light (e.g., as a counter to "liberal" narratives on Ukraine or NATO), with articles like those on the Russo-Ukraine war drawing views during peaks. Such events could:

"Reduce interest in pro-Russia conservative angles, as U.S. conservatives pivot to domestic issues (e.g., elections). Amplify disinformation scrutiny, indirectly hurting niche sites via stricter Google penalties on "malign influence" content—Russia has funded U.S. right-wing influencers (e.g., $10M to Tenet Media in 2024 for pro-Kremlin videos), leading to broader ecosystem distrust.

Russian ops have targeted conservative audiences to sow division, but exposure (e.g., 2024 DOJ indictments) erodes trust. If problems escalate, searches for "Putin failures" might briefly spike, but overall, Conservapedia's Russia-related traffic (a subset of its political content) could drop 15-25%, exacerbating baseline declines.

Additional Traffic Loss: 10-20% overall in years 1-3 (e.g., from 87K to 70K-78K monthly by 2028), with 30-50% drop in Russia-specific pages. This compounds inaction risks, potentially accelerating total decline to 60-70% by 2035. Recovery would require diversifying away from geopolitics."

I trust this further clarifies matters. Conservative (talk) 07:30, September 23, 2025 (EDT)

Third round of questions

• What are the odds that Russia and Vladimir Putin will experience significant problems in the next 3 years?: "The 70-80% estimate reflects interlocking risks: Economic woes (most immediate) amplify military and political pressures."
• Why is Russia declining so quickly? What factors are causing it? What is the probability that this decline will continue for the foreseeable future?, Grok, September 12, 2025

I trust this clarifies matters even further. Conservative (talk) 07:55, September 23, 2025 (EDT)
