Don't forget that Russia is both laughably incompetent and being beaten by tractors while simultaneously being a massive threat to world peace that everyone in the world must unite against or else.
its so hard to get good information out of this war, that it could be either of those. its laughable how certain our media is, yet the majority of media outlets in ukr are loyal to the regime.
Truth was a causality way before any of this stared
What "war", comrade? It's just a
training exercisespecial military operation, don't forget it.But a funny thing is how our media, and the state media in particular, are way more anti-Russian than me. The TV won't even say "Russians" normally all the time but will go like "Russian bandits" and like. Full war mode, almost as in Russia.
A sample title of the state television news, "The Russians Are Bandits": https://wiadomosci.tvp.pl/58915166/putin-to-morderca-rosjanie-to-bandyci
It's the level of based department that is a bit extreme for even me. But it's normal here.
What did you except, to be loyal to the invader right away?
Collaboration may be a problem during the occupation, as it is always.
There are also no bio labs in Ukraine and at the same time Russia could use bio weapons they find in labs at any moment.
No, their own.
(A chemical attack is much more likely.)
I expected them to defeat Ukraine in 36-48 hours.
I still try to not underestimate them, but anyway it brings a great joy to my good old Polish heart when they're bleeding in the snow and burning in the mud.
A wholesome meme highly related: https://twitter.com/KampfmitKette/status/1499305605781200900
Anyway they didn't quite go the Grozny Mode (https://youtube.com/watch?v=TlkCNzu-VkM) yet, but in Kharkiv and Mariupol they're going there. When they do, they'll just level the places, and Grozny was a little town compared to Kharkiv.
Without any sarcasm intended, it probably does make you a better person to be disturbed. Usually I hide my power levels about things like that from people as to not sound creepy, about which I'm self concious.
Speaking truth without edginess, there's a lot of relatable videos of Russian soldiers who are clearly confused or even ashamed about the situation they found themsleves in. I can't say I really hate them and it's even relatable at times, and I'll even just go and say I actually wish them
Despite being "incompetent", they are still a threat. Because they still hold the biggest number of nuclear weapons in the world. And quantity has a quality on its own. As in, zerg tactics work sometimes.
Perhaps the Z on their vehicles was no coincidence.
In fact and seriously, I don't even discount them going actually ABC now in the hope to win this decisively and in a single stroke, Putin has nothing to lose anymore after entrapping himself, and everything to win because otherwise it might be the end of him. They already work on preparing this with propaganda that is supposed to work internally, but works wonders enough even on "right wingers" in America too.
The West also don't do the MAD doctrine at all anymore, their response to nuclear threats is always just one-sided attempts to deescalate the situation, and never threaten even back. Such displays of weakness is not what what did work out in the Cold War, also in successfully avoiding nuclear war.
Precisely. Fascinating how the more we move forward in time, the more everything stays the same.
This is the sad part. Despite the right wingers knowing how the MSM lies, despite seeing how fake news is made, despite knowing how much people get manipulated by it... As soon as Russia does all of it, they guzzle that stuff like a drunkard in a pub. The right-wing NPC takes whatever "1" the left-wing NPC receives and converts it into "0". So whatever choice the left-wing NPC decides, the right wing NPC will do the opposite. Without stopping and thinking for a moment to see if the reverse choice is actually the right one.
If you point out how absolutely dumb it is to do all of this, they get triggered. You know it, as they attacked you because you disproved all their arguments. They got as loud, obnoxious and retarded as the average left-wing NPC when they got contradicted or proven wrong.
I expected more from "our" side. I expected them to think, and notice those patterns. But I was wrong on that. The disappointment really hurt a lot. As I held them, especially most members in this community(with obvious exceptions), into a higher regard.
Putin has nothing to lose indeed. With rumours of him reshuffling generals in Moscow. With 3 confirmed generals killed(where that would be utterly rare in modern battlefields) in Ukraine... I think anybody who could stand up against him is too afraid of him. After all he got into power by guaranteeing anyone loud enough to oppose him gets killed or silenced. I remember the days of a certain Russian dissident getting killed by a certain radioactive weapon. A country where most news agencies and media are all government owned, the internet is heavily censored(not as bad as China), and still a few right wingers who praise liberty and freedom falls in love with Putin, and Russia and China(looking at the Nick Fuentes simps, who are more China and Russia first than America first).
Overall, in summary, I'm glad that some reasonable voice still remains in this community and that you expertly debunk a lot of the fake news, and false information spread here.
Indeed, this is true. America stopped the test of ICBMs recently to try and de-escalate. I think, considering how well you keep up with these subjects, you are. My opinion then was that... Good. Less escalation. But now, my opinion changed, and they should have tested. It was just a normal scheduled test, even before Russia decided to invade.
This is why under Trump, Mr. Putin was quiet. He knew that Trump was unpredictable, and that he would regret it if he saber-rattled. And this is how America and the West won the cold war. By selling that Star Wars program that helped break Russia. A massive bluff that never got out of the paper for the most of it. (except during the Bush years with that 747 and the laser they installed on it, but that too was mothballed)
but where has their "objectivity and neutrality" gone?
That is funny shit. Is there a high Rez of it.
I wish, but no I just stumbled on this. Looks to have come from @airforce intel memes or maybe that's part of the joke too.
Is this twatter? Links? Ty in advance.
As truthful as their Gulf of Tompkin reports
One of the most important rules in a war: There is no such thing as truth in a war.
I love how there's old-fashioned cannons and cavalry.
