Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[God of Nothing]

"Dude I thought we'd be like, on the offensive and pushing back with arty support and stuff. They have none of that but Russia does!! I don't know why they won't reorganize like the Republic Commandos to be more effective with what they have. I'm as tough as anyone but the war over there just isn't fair!"

I want reddit to be genocided like the VDV. Send in another battalion!

Holy shit lmao, he really thought he'd be going around like he's part of the Rebel Alliance and knocking down Imperial Star Destroyer after Star Destroyer. What a fucking moron.

war totally hasn't changed in a thousand years
we can just slowly approach each other's lines with our gladiuses/spears and shields ready to kill each other
i mean, we have guns but still, right?
right?!

It has just been reported an American journalist from the NYT was killed in Irpin. (city still under Ukrainian control).

If they're lynching Jew York Times journos I might have to readjust my views on the Hohols.

Now, this is the kind of news coverage I want to see more of.

Oh that's too bad, probably accused him of being a saboteur.

Anyway...

And now my apparent sense of empathy will make me step away from the thread for a bit. It’s that time I guess.

Interesting.

So was this a foreigner who thought that if he put on a press badge, he’d get more lenient treatment?

Why am I supposed to hate this guy?

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.

LOL bitch has the internet: virtue signals on her cell phone about being a homeless war victim.

Keep making me cheer on the Russians, you vapid cunt.

You know, the Trump/Russia collusion may have not been real, but given how much people would be fine with what’d happen in the name of “owning the libs”, I’m surprised it didn’t have more weight. Threats to bomb Moscow must have really put a damper on things and only worked to create a bigger boogeyman that’s only now being unleashed. Can’t believe how both sides of the aisle are so easily impressed.

Ukraine is totally winning guys! The reason Russia hasn't taken any cities yet is due to the valiant defense and fighting spirit of the Ukrainians! Plus the Russians didn't have a plan at all! They didn't bomb the shit out of those cities because the couldn't! Not because they chose not to! These foreign fighters deserting aren't leaving because their side is losing and they see that, No! they are deserting because the battle is over! Ukraine has won!

Wow, who could have guessed?

They literally just stole the circa-1999 Pizza Hut and Red Hat logos and mashed them together.

It's a level of "who gives a fuck" that's actually hilarious and impressive.

At least they took the BEST Pizza Hut logo. So many memories…

 

[afternoon_tea]

To be fair, I think the exact same thing about the government in my country. If they're just gonna cheat elections and install senile pedophiles what is there worth defending?

I feel the same way too most of the time to be honest. The only thing that makes me not want to give up is looking at other countries that have been around much longer and seeing all the shit they've endured throughout history and overcome. It makes me think maybe someday things could be better here.

Hey don't insult the VDV, at least they have a nice music video (there is a possibility any of the men in this footage died in the Russian Invasion of Ukraine).

Is just of meme comrade! I think the VEH DEH VEH mass death memes are forced as with everything in this war special military operation anyway...

I'm serious about Reddit, though.

It's really like they never considered that the Russians would attack them, they really thought they were just going to run the Ukraine taking back town after town. Absolute tards. Russians missiles are the greatest reality check.

i'm a warmachine
i mean, i've never been on the front lines... i've only fired my gun at the range... no one ever fired at me
but i'm a total killing machine, man
watch! OH FUCK! THEY SHOT ME! I SHOT HIM BUT HE SHOT ME! HOW DID HE DO THAT?!

 

[Lone MacReady]

Have you been paying attention to what the left has actually been saying? Like, at all? They have an insane degree of hatred for the old Slav warlord that far exceeds any rational assessment of what he's doing and how involved we have any right to be. Also, remember what I just said about invading and destroying Libya for no reason at all, to the point that the country still hasn't pulled itself back together over a decade later? Biden was VP during that whole debacle. He, personally, has no leg to stand on either. Or wouldn't if he was at all coherent enough to set policy on his own initiative.

I also remember what that old Cunnus Hillary said about Gaddafi, they so desperately want to do it to Russia.

 

[CognitiveDeficiency]

This is dumb dumb dumb dumb like holy shit it is dumb. Every side is retarded about this shit but no more than the Russians and their dickriders. This entire situation is an unmitigated disaster on the Russian side and they don't even realize it. From their propaganda they went into this with a fundamentally flawed mindset. The Russians and their supporters seem to think that because the US pulled out of Iraq/Afghanistan that means they are weak. Granted yeah the US is weak, but they fail to understand exactly what those wars were. They were intended to be forever wars. Mass production of death to keep the military industrial complex forever flexing. The failure in Iraq and Afghanistan wasn't that they pulled out because they couldn't complete the objective, it was that they pulled out at all. That was what they were supposed to be, war as a service. The xbox live of oppression. I don't know if this is what Putin thought, but judging by what the media is broadcasting he seems to believe the purpose was victory. From what it looks like to an outside observer Putin seems to have thought he could pull a W and things would be daijoubu. That his boys would be welcomed with flowers and he would show up America with a "real war." If that is true he drank the koolaid and fundamentally misunderstood the situation.

Every possible solution to this problem is an L for Russia. The only conceivable way Russia could win here is if they mogged the entire world and just kept conquering until they couldn't any more. The last few weeks have shown that isn't possible. The only thing guaranteed from this war suffering for the Russian people.

[The Other Baldwin]

I had a friend of mine tell me that we should sign up for Ukraine and that we're bringing back the draft or something. Yeah right, like they want a bunch of disinterested conscripts or even worse, Redditors. I just love/hate how many idiots buy into the "defend freedom and democracy and support Ukraine" rhetoric when it's in reality a corrupt shithole run by a diet Putin.

Honestly we're probably doomed to be ruled over by boomers for eternity at this point. That being said, nobody over the age of 65 should be allowed to run for political office. Ever.

Tell your friend to stop watching MSNBC and start running, working out, and shooting for fun. If he wants to go kill Russians after the pile of pussy he will get after doing those few things....he is either gay, or living in a liberal shithole.

There are loads of good and smart people in the military, but the vast majority I've met and observed have been absolute retards about anything other than their specific job at best. They're better to ignore, especially the veterans.

To be fair, that is kind of their job. Most never leave that mindset.

Counter protestors will show up, a fight will break out & the district attorney will selectively prosecute whoever they don't like & release whoever they do like. And even when that happened, Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges for self defense.

I'm really tired of this "But whutabout Americuh" rhetoric, Putin has committed well known political assassinations which have yet to become a thing in the United States, that is unless you're willing to admit the Arkanacides were all real.

Wait... you don't think the Arkancides(Including Seth Rich) were real?

Ruins of Stalingrad, 1942

The Russians have the ability to replicate this in the 21st century but will they do it?

see

I don't think that's so much an issue of the world war as much as it's an issue of people just becoming complacent and as a result retarded. Europe still has a lot technology from that era that's used around the world but it was amazingly slow to adopt anything that's common in Asia like the touch screen.

I think the United States government has fallen into this trap which seems to be universal among empires across history; the only people in its institutions are those who unquestionably agree with the hegemon's goals and objectives; thus, there is no counterbalance as disagreement, of any kind, is seen as disloyalty and opposing views are attacked.

Compare JFK's cabinet with Biden's; JFK didn't seek out and retain yes men. For example, had it not been for someone challenging intelligence and experts and advising JFK to ignore recent letters clearly written by CCCP apparatchiks and to respond to the first, written in a simple and emotional style, indicating Khrushchev himself wrote it, the Cuban Missile Crisis would have been resolved in a deadlier manner.

Biden has a bunch, no, several venal diversity hires (Austin, his black wahmen SCOTUS pick, his DOJ BLM negress) and soycucks in State/Defense parroting neocon talking points. State is full of the very people that provoked and escalated this situation, any other President that wan't a nursing home dementia escapee would have fired them the moment this shit went hot and put in competent people who spoke Russian/Ukrainian, understood and lived Russian culture and most important, could relate to their Russian counterparts. Instead we have a hysterical overreaction more reminiscent of a underage teenage girl mad at her boyfriend for going out with another girl than of seasoned, professional diplomats and negotiators. I see unqualified diversity hires probably picked by a drunk Hillary Clinton proxy dragging us into this mess. Threatening China with sanctions tells me everything I want to know.

These are the people that scream to IT their computer is a POS and won't turn on and then you find out its not plugged in because their foot yanked the cord out during an intense Candy Crush level. They call your supervisor demanding to know why they can't install a chat program so they can IM during work. Then they use their phone to do it anyway. That's who's running the USA. All this can lead to turning not only Ukraine but your part of the world into Stalingrad, and with nukes.

This, but unironically. I went in with a 99 ASVAB and perfect line scores. The military goes out of its way to kill any part of you that isn't related to your job. I was in the MOS with the highest requirements and the lowest numbers in all branches of the military. It was a star MOS as soon as the star system came into effect until I retired. You could not be demoted past a certain point unless you violated the UCMJ so horribly they had to send you to Leavenworth. Every person I worked with was a fucking retarded robot. The ones that weren't quite literally went insane and got chaptered out.

This isn’t anything special or unique. I was expecting a convoy or something but this is not atypical.

I think it's simpler than all of that, as it's rather the idea that once you've made it, you're golden. Every society collapses when there's a notion that things have hit a perfection and nothing can be done beyond that. Realistically the individual collapses at that point as well, but I think society more commonly adopts retardation than innovation, and really it would be better if people just assumed that the elderly did their part, so now they get to relax if things are good, and basically put them in a petting zoo while the rest of society was the result of new generation. Then again, the troons and such put that into question quite heavily.

The Soviet Union was probably the only victory the USA had with the notion that it could change minds in a generation, and even then we can see Putin doesn't give a shit. All of the other experiments were an obvious failure, with China being the most catastrophic.

Well, whoever said they wouldn't even try to integrate foreign volunteers with the regulars and they would just be used as cannon fodder on suicide missions to keep Russian troops busy was right. That appears to be the exact strategy. Pretty horrible. I feel bad even saying this is what the war hawks asked for. Just fuck the globalist left and fuck the warhawks.

Edit: It was DumbDude42 that called it.

dont even try, just send groups of them on suicide missions behind russian lines to serve as nuisance and distraction while your real army guys do the real warfighting

basically use foreign mercs as expendable guerrillas/insurgents/partisans
