A Lithuanian volunteer seasoned in anti-tank warfare wears a sweatshirt that reads, in blue-and-yellow letters “Русский военный корабль, иди нахуй” (“Russian Warship, Go Fuck Yourself”)
At some points these corrupt lying journos who spread propaganda need a reckoning. They need to be held accountable. They are literally killing people with their lies and made-up stories.
The latter is one of my favorite movies. But of course it was made long after the War, and just because they made the Bentley character self-aware doesn't mean the actual journalists at the time were.
Remember the Maine. Yellow Journalism. Hell, Hearst. They knew. As long as there have been printing presses, there has been propaganda journalists trying to sell a war and sell some papers at the same time.
Yes. WWII everyone new what it was about. At every level they knew that they were making content to keep up morale and support for the war and war effort.
I've been following a English Language Based Ukrainian National Socialist Telegram for 3 years now. It's called Misanthrope and the channel originally started out just as posting videos of people getting killed, beat up, and anti-leftist stuff with the occasional pro-Nazi "based" post. It was obvious the channel was heavily full of Ukrainians and Other Eastern Europeans from the comments and some posts were in Ukrainian/Russian instead.
About a 1 year ago, the channel started getting very anti-Russian. Interestingly enough, I remember reading comments in Russian/Ukrainian (translating them using google translate) and some English comments too asking why there was so much Russia hate.
As soon as the war started the channel went into Pro-Ukraine and Super Anti-Russian. It was Russian Pigs this. Russian Pigs that.
Anyway, the reason I bring this up and the long-intro is currently the name of the channel is literally: "Russian warship ... Go F**k Yourself!"
t.me/fckrussia2022
5000 followers. There used to be more before the war started and they went full anti-Russia.
So either this is some long-game by the CIA and this entire channel is their operation which they've been operating for 3+ years or maybe there's potentially some truth to what the journalist is saying because clearly other people who seem to have a very anti-Russian and pro-Ukrainian National Socialist view are promoting this phrase.
Dunno, I can understand it from the Ukrainian perspective.
It's a poor country so they can't afford high wages. It's also war.
All countries have limitations on what vital professionals (cops, military, public servants) can do. If you allow them to turn tail and run at the first sign of conflict your government is toast.
You're signing up for war, not a weekend adventure trip. Blame rests with naive idiots who sign up and propagandists in the West IMHO.
Of course it makes sense, but these morons have no comprehension of what war is. Militaries must enforce discipline in a way that engenders a high trust enviornment. Anyone who abandons their post puts the entire organization at risk, which is why the Ukrainians do not value these foreigners.
The reddit legion is the most likely to run at the first sign of hardship, and that is exactly what has happened. This is also why Russia specifically targeted them. The attack ensures that the western mercenaries will never mestasize into anything more than war tourists.
They are all leaving now after the base in Lvov got smoked. Spindokto's post history is gold. During the air attack, preparations were made for a follow-up assault by Russian paratroopers, and the Ukrainians still didn't give the reddit legion guns or ammo. It turns out the Ukrainian leadership value ammo more than the stupid foreign cannon fodder.
Spez: RT put out an article that Russia specifically targeted them and will continue to do so.
The BBC agrees that this attack happened. His story is similar to others coming from other western journos in the country, and there are a lot more volunteers on Telegram and Twatter who have retreated to Poland or further. This leaves three options: this is the most air tight psyop campaign ever, the guy's story is real, or, even if he is making it up, it is close enough to truth that it doesn't matter.
Imagine thinking you can openly stage a training ground for foreign combatants with express intent to join the fighting… and then being mad/surprised that you got bombed.
It’s kinda like sending a bunch of weapons to one side of a war and still expecting not to be targeted by the enemy.
I guess they felt safe because they were close to the Polish border. What this proves is Russia can strike any part of Ukraine with very little interference. This war is already over, it's only a matter of time.
Yeah that's another big part man. Like a lot of dudes there have experience and really wanted to shape the battlefield and impact their advance, but ultimately they're manning frontline positions that are going to get hammered with artillery and airstrikes, buried under rubble and your family never gets your body. That's when alot of guys say yeah this isn't our fight, not like this.
I knew it wasn't my fight when the Ukrainian liaison we're with looked all confused when I asked him where's the nearest respawn point and that guy who was sleeping got really mad when I shocked him with the field defibrillator.
I came here to oper8 and you want me to be line volksstrum like a pleb‽ I'll have you know.I graduated top of my class at SEAL Team 6. Psh, I'm out. Call me when you decide to give me the air support I deserve.
tldr, he didnt expect a super power to be using jets. this guy is pure reddit tier intelligence.
guy who went to war in ukr "Also, who really expects a jet to attack them" ... goes off fighting a super power. HI IQ REDDITORS
I didn't expect them at that time at that location - none of us did. Russia did a good job of catching us off guard by being aggressive
I wanna say this is a larp, but his lack of knowledge about war is at /typical redditor level
You could go to Afghan 15 times and be an expert at that battle space, then go fight Russia and have to start over.
Supposedly he fought inbred muslims and thinks hes a codooty hero.
last i checked the talibs doesnt have an airforce or dominant weapons (well they did, BEFORE biden) OOF.
I am in Poland! With many other volunteers. I'm man enough to walk away from a situation when my gut tells me so
Tl;dr
redditor travels to fight muh evil russians
gets attacked once by jets "where he didnt expect"
leaves
lol
The people cheering him on for deserting the ukr people he went to "defend" are really funny.
this thread is SUCH TYPICAL REDDIT
lmfao
Woah I just wanted to patrol cities wit a big gun and fuck hot desperate ukrainian refugee waifus with bigg titties
But then, outa nowhere, a fucking jet appears, can you imagine that? They would use a FUCKING JET against us, it’s getting TOO UNSAFE, fuck the Ukrainian government, they disoriented me, who would have known?????
They only supplied cuck with a Tshirt and nintendo switch. and they took back the switch
I tried though.
lol
As a medic, as someone who put myself there as a channel to help civilians caught in the chaos
He thought the foreign legion would walk around cities without combat happening, lol
It's fucking frustrating. I would very much like to contribute but without force multipliers, aviation, combat support and CBRN equipment you're fighting an intimidating battle in conventional terms.
Redditors slowly learning that CODOOTY is not real warfare
the war had been going on for weeks and hadn't reached that area, but did on my second day there. Yeah lol, little unexpected.
This retard claims he fought other wars.
MVP
Uhhh, I don’t remember anything like this happening in any of the marvel movies wtf
I find it comforting that a lot of people in that thread - with upvoted posts no less - are calling out the insane propaganda that's getting dumped on everyone by the MSM.
When the only cards your leadership plays are "please West, get in a thermonuclear war with Russia for shits and gigs, please! DO IT NOW! NOW! How about now? Now? Thermonuclear war plox? Why won't you listen to us, we want you to extinguish all life on Earth! Is that too much to ask?!?!", alongside the rare "We formally acknowledge all our citizens as combat fighters, so it's fine if they're killed."...
You're just not looking at the most competent leadership in the room. The Ukraine seems to think that just because their government gave Biden a couple million bucks in bribe money that they get "fuck the world" service, and hedged on nothing else.
At some points these corrupt lying journos who spread propaganda need a reckoning. They need to be held accountable. They are literally killing people with their lies and made-up stories.
Somehow, modern journos think they are different than the war propagandists of the past.
They are different.
Theyre worse.
propogandists of hte past probbaly had self respect. these are kamalas of the press
Did the war propagandists of the past understand what they were doing? Of course those at the top did, but did the line reporters?
If not then they are no different: just the "useful idiots" of our day.
Oh, they knew. Did you ever watch MASH? Or Lawrence of Arabia?
The latter is one of my favorite movies. But of course it was made long after the War, and just because they made the Bentley character self-aware doesn't mean the actual journalists at the time were.
Remember the Maine. Yellow Journalism. Hell, Hearst. They knew. As long as there have been printing presses, there has been propaganda journalists trying to sell a war and sell some papers at the same time.
look up Thomas Jefferson's quotes on the press to see how old the tale is
The reporters in MASH the series were pretty much all about propaganda and selling newspapers/tv air time.
Yes. WWII everyone new what it was about. At every level they knew that they were making content to keep up morale and support for the war and war effort.
Eh if you believe such obvious bullshit, thats on you
Why do you think this is made up?

200 a month LO. to go fight the russians LOOOOO
they would have made more signing up for OUR military instead, and wouldnt be fighting russia. Dolts
lmao what else did they expect throwing their lives away for this jew war. Fuck em, i hope they do lose everything
Oh man, this just gives me Area 88 vibes.

Help? These people are only there because the media told them this was the best way to get attention.
He's warning ppl not to join up because the army is a shitshow
I like how saying that was RuSsiAn PrOpAgANdA 3 weeks ago lol
Reddit runs on internet points
I would ask why they would think this but I'm sure the answer is "because they are retarded."
Imagine thinking you can openly stage a training ground for foreign combatants with express intent to join the fighting… and then being mad/surprised that you got bombed.

Something would have to go pretty wrong for modern GPS guided missiles to go 10 miles off target.
I presume that he thought they were far enough away from the front lines that Ukraine would see the attack coming.
lol this fucking guy
I knew it wasn't my fight when the Ukrainian liaison we're with looked all confused when I asked him where's the nearest respawn point and that guy who was sleeping got really mad when I shocked him with the field defibrillator.
