Looks like Kyiv and Kharkiv are still holding out. Anything new re those places?
earlier someone over there estimated Kiev has 2 weeks worth of supplies before they run out atm. not impossible that estimate was actually on the money, given how slowly russians are encircling the place, but we'll see. they certainly aren't sparing their artillery (pretty brutal grad strike video of some ukranian troops trying to find cover from it, in vain, a bit back in this thread), so unless they're completely incompetent not sure how anything is supposed to get through by now anyway.

Kharkiv is a complete unknown though...haven't heard much news from there tbh.
 
It seems that shit got real. Copy/pasta:

Russian strike on Ukrainian training base reportedly killed around 180 foreign fighters. The news is being reported by both sides.

Brazilian foreign fighter in Ukraine has reported about this news on his Instagram story and stated “the base where we were was attacked now from missiles more than 200 dead, 200! people that came to help the Ukrainian people”

Another Brazilian foreign fighter has survived the Russian strike on an Ukrainian training base and stated: “Thank you God for another day of life. Sad for the friends who died in the attack on our base.”

And this is how you know 90+% of these foreign volunteers were LARPING. There is not a single serious soldier or insurgent on earth who would immediately post on the internet about his recently deceased friends, all the while using selfies and emojis to illustrate his sorrow.

And despite this, volunteers are still heading there, including these Canadian volunteers who are at Warsaw Airport right now (link)



Also, it seems like blue armbands are not specifically for Azovs, but they are for Ukrainian special units, based on these Tweets (link 1, link 2)

...and this post by @kuuu

From what I've read it's supposed to be Ukrainian special force units with blue arm bands.
Saw a vid earlier where a whole squad had those.
Couldn't find the vid, but here's Poroshenko with it.

On top of that, there's a video I posted with an Azov that had a yellow armband, which you can find here.

Ukies who are supposedly Azovs (hence "Banderites" in the desc) block Orthodox Christians from entering a church. Location unknown (link).

The fact that blue armbands = Ukie special forces was probably stated before in the thread, but I felt like it would be nice to put all the evidence into one post.

A lot of them probably were convinced this is what they were going to fight. They can also thank MSM and experts like Bellingcat who said that the Russian army was going to collapse on Sunday, a week ago.
 
I think instead of "Fascism" the word you're looking for is "centralization." Centralization has been the general pattern since Europe exited the feudal "dark ages." The only government that has somewhat successfully bucked the centralization trend was the United States. Of course the United States has been treading up the centralization ladder, with the Civil War being the biggest strike to the decentralized spirit of the country's founding. But it has been much slower and experienced much more resistance than most countries.
I think it's both really. Europe has definitely trended towards centralization but it has experimented with a lot of different methods of said centralization, with fascism ending up as the most neutral path that allowed for centralization with the added benefit of some decentralization in production, thus giving the production more resilience which avoids constant collapse. China is probably the best at it as they have a very strong and to some extent free industrial and business center but all business has some influence from the CCP due to partial ownership and having party members forcefully in the company as oversight.
 
I want this to be on the frontpage of r/volunteersforukraine instead of all the uki propaganda videos of random ambushed supply convoys. See how many people still feel brave when the "Russia is just a buncha bumbling retards!" narrative slips away, and they realize they're up against an enemy with one of the most powerful artillery force in the world.

The last time the west went up against an enemy with actual artillery was the Korean war, and that is a trauma those who survived never forgot.

Have fun, redditors! Let's hope the shrapnel only rips your leg off, and you can pay for your new prosthetic limb with all the heckin' reddit gold you got! You might even get a PTSD service doggarino!
Sounds like a lot of the foreign volunteers on the Ukraine side are deserting go back home.

I don't even feel bad for these retards. They ate up every last drop of the meme propaganda coming from Ukraine and deserve the deaths they get for thinking they can LARP in a warzone. I'm sure some of them will make it out somewhat fine and I hope it serves as a lesson to them and likeminded individuals, but it probably won't. They'll use their 'experience' for internet points until they fade into irrelevancy in a couple months as they bitch about not getting paid for their work in Hoholia.
Oh no, looks like Ukraine can hold out for years...

How are Ukrainians this fucking delusional. I thought their government of clowns had it bad.
BTW, the Ukries say that more than 2000 civilians have been killed in Mariupol so far.

I have no doubt this is real but the Ukries are only posting these numbers to rile up the western public to get a NATO intervention.
I thought it was six gorillion dead orphans in Mariopol.
 
There is less attention devoted to reports of destroyed Russian convoys or captured Russian vehicules today while the most noteworthy news of today are the high number of civilian casualties, the death of a Burger journo and that a lot of foreign fighters are getting killed or have been killed in bombings, combat, e.t.c.

Putin, acknowledging the soon to be Russian soil said, "Gaijin get out REEEEEEeeeee!" and bombed them.

As much of a clown show as the Russian Army is, unlike the Iraqis or Afghans, it has GPS, it has relatively modern tanks, and it has infantry who understand how to use their rifles. Oh, and in the end, it turns out the Ukrainian government is every bit as corrupt and abusive as Russia's! The Ukies have no qualms about using conscripts, committing war crimes, and targeting civilians. And you thought that the fact they were backed by Washington instead of Moscow meant they were the good guys! Whoops!
 
Every day that passes makes me more and more pro Russia simply because I'm watching US/UK/Western news go "Noooo you can't do that!" whenever Russia kills people trying to kill them.

I don't care if the 'conscripts' haven't fired a single bullet yet, they were being trained up to kill Russians so they were fair game to get vacuum bombed.

It's literally just Jew puppet sperging because Russia is violating their dictates about 'Who and Who Cannot conduct Warfare' in the globalism age. Russia isn't going to be a Rothschild dollar-connected State anymore, one which just accepts America's exported debt. Russia wants its own era of control of the "coin".

The Germans were convinced that they were going to fight those guys, too. And they were! They just forgot that an artillery barrage turns platoons into ketchup regardless of how drunk the guy was who launched it.

Hopefully no missiles accidentally hit Poland.

If nothing hits Poland, they'll just move the base to ten inches from the border.
 
This might be another schizo post but i just checked russia on the world map since i was curios about how many towns and cities they had to the west and i fucking swear it's gotten bigger since the last time i last looked which was a couple weeks ago. i'm sure i would have heard something before like "russia is larger than the entire african continent" if it had always been this fucking huge.
