At this point, Joe Biden could make an announcement that the US sent in 1000 troops overnight and took back Ukraine without a single loss, the media would run with the story, and 99% of Americans and Canadians would absolutely believe it and celebrate about how they defeated the Russians by posting support on social media.
 
Nor do I, of course. But the Russofags in this thread are, in their coping and seething, making it seem like it's been nothing but smooth sailing and "all part of the plan" for Russia. Anyone with the barest hint of military knowledge knows otherwise by now. Their army is struggling to beat a much smaller, less technologically advanced version of their own. It's a clownshow of epic proportion.
No plan survives first contact.
 
And such we send you to kill Putin.

Big tech is busy removing "disinformation" that the resistance in Ukraine is collapsing from "regional" media near Ukraine
Boring interview unless you want the details

And let me scream
BLOOMBERG IS A JEW !!
IT JEW MEDIA !!
If its in my OP its transitive and you don't have to sperg out in a response


Holy shit, these foreskin chewers are actually arguing that everything that Zelenskyy doesn't say should be considered disinformation :story:

Edit:
This was so retarded it actually inspired some OC for me

Russians are currently dunking on their fellow slavs who have a hate boner for them, who have been equipt and trained by NATO and I think they hold the 2nd largest army (or was it France?) in Europe, Russia being 1st.

Yea you don't get points for dunking on Arabs, Israel kicked the shit out of multiple Arab nations at once and that was before they were a proper ally to the US. Arabs are just shit.
No, Ukraine uses old but upgunned Soviet equipment. If they had Leopards or M1's they'd probably actually be winning.

And I don't necessarily disagree about Arab battlefield prowess.
 
But I was assured the entire planet would join us in an embargo of Russia.
Pakistan is a longtime ally of PRC, so this in the category of least surprising news. Any US AID matters not a damn, eaten bread is soon forgotten. I suppose the aid is about having an entrée, but it seems a waste. Will Biden cut any US aid to Pakistan? The answer will be likely no.

That cat federation thing sounds gay and petty. Exotic Russkie cats are ever amusing. Russian White is saddened at the news.

This is said to be civilians of Enerhodar (a city with the largest nuclear power plant in Europe) blocking a road into the city. On February 28, 2022 Russia claimed to have captured this location but the mayor of the city denied this.

Every other Ukie city near the front line seems to be captured five times, and I don't care a whit about any mentally applied 'late' stickers. It is the way with this war, and other wars too, but a reminder.

Lately, people all over the country are getting a lot of calls or messages from scammers.

It is very important not to lose vigilance and not to succumb to intimidation and panic.

Now the most common method of scammers is calls demanding to urgently withdraw all money from bank accounts, because they will not be available after turning off SWIFT (SWIFT). It is not true. Funds of all clients on accounts in Russian banks are saved and will always be available. Disconnecting some banks from SWIFT will not affect this in any way. SWIFT is just a financial messenger used by banks around the world, its shutdown creates inconvenience for the international activities of banks, but does not affect operations within the country.

All clients of all banks can always deposit, transfer and withdraw money from their accounts. All bank cards throughout Russia work normally.

Big time coping. Almost as big of scammers as the Federal Reserve.

This is interesting too but I think the Google translation is off.

From what I gather Russia's big brained idea is that if you conduct foreign transactions you have to sell the foreign currency against the Ruble, which props up the currency pairs in favor of the Ruble bidding it up. This idea is obviously fucking retarded so I'm not sure if it's actually true.
 
Ukrainian military position located inside a school stormed by Chechen/Russian forces. Judging by the fact that people walking around in the footage are wearing yellow headbands I will presume that the Ukrainians were able to hold onto the position.

Yes, any central bank is a scam, but why is what they said wrong here? I genuinely don't know.
 

Alright, let me comment on the presence of fake media for a moment.

The main thing you want to look for when verifying a piece of media is whether or not something like it could be easily manipulated. For example, if the video found contains very little movement in the environment and camera (like the one posted in the quote), then it can be easily manipulated; you might as well call something like that an "image".

This is why I almost never post photos when I want to give genuine info, and why I stick to posting videos with a lot of things going on in the environment (e.g. footage showing a group of Russian tanks or soldiers on the move), or a lot of movement from the cameraperson (e.g. guy walking around while filming dead bodies). Not only do they help me infer what is happening in the big picture, but they are also much harder to edit without the end product looking uncanny or shopped.

Also, there is a reason why I look to Russian Telegram channels for info more often than Ukrainian sources. If you've been paying attention, Ukraine is clearly in a very weak position in terms of military, so there's more of an incentive for them to post media with actors, fake (or altered) enemy equipment, or straight up edits. Russian Telegrams are also willing to report casualties and destruction on both sides.

Holding this in my mind is why I'm no longer trusting the "captured Russian vehicle" crap unless the vehicles have Z's on it and the piece of medium is made in video format, with at least a moderate amount of camera movement. Should've done it days ago, but I feel like I was just giving Ukies too much trust.

It's true. A lot of guys who are working for western countries and getting paid in dollars relocating to Georgia and Armenia right now.
